When the Japanese attacked America’s ships at Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941,they did it secretly.The makers of the movie Pearl Harbor have behaved differently.
The noise about Pearl Harbor,made by Disney,has reached its highest point with its premiere(首次公演) before the movie opens in cinemas across the US at the start of the Memorial Day holiday weekend,a time to recall national heroes who sacrificed their lives on the battlefield.
As Ben Affleck is the main star,the movie seems sure to become a success in the United States at least.
At almost three hours in length,it promises to be a good old Hollywood movie.There is a love story.Affleck and his co-star,Josh Hartnett,both fall in love with the navy nurse,Kate Beckinsale and,of course,there is much human courage and love of country.
It’s certain that Disney will be accused of “changing” history.The showing of actual events in a movie always causes arguments.
Bits of the story are deliberately not mentioned in the movie.It does not address the theory held by some historians that President Franklin Roosevelt knew about Japan’s intention to attack the ships in Pearl Harbor.It is said he did nothing,as he was aware that such a blow would allow him to take America into the Second World War.
Japan remains sensitive about being accused of wartime atrocities(暴行).And Disney is sensitive about its business in Japan,where it has a theme park.
Not all the reviews of the movie have been full of praise.A reviewer for Newsweek,who was given an early preview,acknowledged that the 40-minute sequence(连续镜头) showing the attack itself was powerful.The attack comes quite late in the movie,however,and the reviewer was less impressed with the characters and the love story.
“Almost every line of the dialogue sounds like it comes from an old movie,” the reviewer wrote.
1.From the passage we can infer that the Memorial Day refers to .
A.the day when the United States was founded
B.the day when people honour their ancestors
C.a day when people honour those who died in wars
D.a day when people celebrate the victories of World War Ⅱ
2.From the passage we know that Ben Affleck .
A.may be a very popular movie star
B.regarded Josh Hartnett as an enemy
C.experienced the Pearl Harbor Incident
D.was in love with the actress Kate Beckinsale
3.Which of the following statements is TRUE about Pearl Harbor?
A.The movie has made the Japanese angry.
B.The movie will cause a lot of arguments.
C.The movie truly describes the Pearl Harbor Incident.
D.The movie shows that President Franklin Roosevelt knew about Japan’s intention.
4.According to the passage,what does the reviewer for Newsweek think of the movie?
A.The scenes of the attack leave no impression.
B.The dialogue in the movie is original and creative.
C.The characters and the love story are less attractive.
D.The attack scenes occupy too much time of the movie.

In Europe many people died during the Second World War. As a result, at the end of the war there were many orphans (孤儿) there. A man called Hermann Gmeiner wanted to help these children. His idea was simple. He wanted orphans to have a home, and he wanted them to have the care and kindness of parents. Gmeiner asked people to give him some money. With this money he built the first SOS Children's Village at Imst, in Austria. It opened in1949. This is how the SOS stand for “Save Our Souls.” This means, “Please help us!” An SOS Children’ village gives help to orphans. Hermann Gmeiner’s idea for helping orphans soon spread all over the world. By 1983 there were 170 SOS Children's Villages in the world. People in many countries give money to help the villages.
Today the children from the first village have grown up. Now some of them work in other SOS Children’s Villages. In SOS Villages orphans live in family groups. There are several houses in each village. The biggest village has 40 or 50 houses! Between seven and ten children live in a house. A woman lives with each group of children and looks after them. She gives the children a lot of love and kindness. She cooks meals for them and makes comfortable, happy home for them.
Of course, the children don’t spend all their time in the village. They go to school; they go out with their friends. But the village gives them a home—sometimes for the first time in their lives.
1.The SOS Children’s Villages are built for________ first.
A.the children who are poor B.the orphans in Europe
C.the kind women D.people who died in the war.
2.We can conclude from the article that the money for helping the SOS Villages mainly comes from ________ .
A.governments B.special organization
C.people in different countries D.the orphans themselves
3.Which of the following is NOT the work a woman in an SOS Village does for each group of children?
A.She lives with the children and looks after them.
B.She gives the children a lot of love and kindness.
C.She cooks meals for children.
D.She teaches the children how to use the computer.

Today's personal computers are very different from the huge machines that were born during World War II-and the difference isn't only in their size. By the 1970s, these early PCs could not perform many of the tasks that today's computers can. Users could only do mathematical calculations(数学计算) and play simple games. Today PCs are used in many different kinds of ways. At home and at work, we use our PCs to do almost everything. It is nearly impossible to imagine modern life without them.
The earliest computers were not "personal" in any way: They were large and expensive, and they required a team of engineers and other experts to keep them running. One of the first and most famous of these, the Electronic Numerical Integrator Analyzer and Computer (ENIAC), was built at the University of Pennsylvania. ENIAC cost ﹩500, 000, weighed 30 tons and took up nearly 2, 000 square feet of floor space.
ENIAC and other early computers proved that the machines were worth so much money, space and manpower they needed. For example, ENIAC could solve in 30 seconds a problem that could take a team of human "computers" 12 hours to complete. At the same time, new technologies were making it possible to build smaller computers.
But one of the most important of the inventions that make way for the PC revolution was the microprocessor(微处理器). Microprocessors were the size of a nail. They could run the computer's programs, remember information and manage data(数据) all by themselves.
These new ideas made it cheaper and easier to produce computers than ever before. As a result, the smaller, cheaper "microcomputer"-soon known as the "personal computer"-was born. Today, portable computers, smart phones and ipads allow us to have a PC with us wherever we go.
1.What's mainly talked about in the first paragraph? ______
A.An even more relaxing lifestyle without PCs.
B.PCs can be made full use of to do everything.
C.Differences between modern and early PCs.
D.The difficult situation of PCs being born.
2.What do we know about the earliest computers? ______
A.It was easy to control them. B.They took up too much room.
C.Nobody could afford one. D.They were built by universities.
3.Why does the writer take ENIAC for example? ______
A.To predict high technology will make computers smaller.
B.To show computers are really smarter than human beings.
C.To explain why computers could deal with any problem.
D.To prove spending money on early computers was meaningful.
4.Which of the following makes the biggest contribution to microcomputers? ______
A.Microprocessors. B.Programs. C.Money. D.Imagination.
