Keep on Fighting

Turning once again to the question of invasion, I would observe that there has never been a period in all these long centuries of which we boast when an absolute guarantee against invasion, still less against serious raids, could have been given to our people. In the days of Napoleon the same wind which would have carried his transports across the Channel might have driven away the blockading (封锁) fleet. There was always the chance, and it is that chance which has excited and befooled (愚弄) the imaginations of many continental tyrants. Many are the tales that are told. We are assured that novel methods will be adopted, and when we see the originality of malice (怨恨), the ingenuity of aggression, which our enemy displays, we may certainly prepare ourselves for every kind of novel stratagem (战略) and every kind of brutal and treacherous (奸诈)maneuver (花招). I think that no idea is so outlandish (古怪的) that it should not be considered and viewed with a searching, but at the same time, I hope, with a steady eye.

We must never forget the solid assurances of sea power and those which belong to air power if it can be locally exercised. I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once again able to defend our island home, to ride out the storm of war, and to outlive the menace (威胁) of tyranny, if necessary for years, if necessary alone. At any rate, that is what we are going to try to do. This is the resolve of His Majesty's government - every man of them. This is the will of parliament and the nation. The British Empire and the French republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their native soil, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength. Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous states have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious (可憎的) apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag (变弱) or fail.

We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost might be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills, we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this island or a large part of it were subjugated (征服) and starving, then our empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the new world, with its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.

16Throughout Britain's history, there has been no guarantee that an invasion would not happen.

A Right BWrong C Not mentioned

17Napoleon and his army once crossed the English Channel and conquered Britain

A Right BWrong C Not mentioned

18The enemy will use every means conceivable to destroy Britain.

A Right BWrong C Not mentioned

19Churchill is confident that he will live longer than Hitler.

A Right BWrong C Not mentioned

20The Royal Air Force will launch massive air strikes against the Germans.

A Right BWrong C Not mentioned

21The British empire is so strong that it does not have to take Hitler's menace seriously

A Right BWrong C Not mentioned

22Although many countries have been overrun by the Germans, the British people will never give in.

A Right BWrong C Not mentioned

McGrady's Spectacular Art

1 When Tracy McGrady is healthy, his play can be so beautiful that even his own teammates on the court cannot help but admire it - in the middle of a game

2 "It's hard for me, because I'm a fan of basketball," Houston point guard (负责组织进攻的后卫) Rafer Alston told The Houston Chronicle (记事) newspaper after McGrady's 44-point performance against Utah on January 5. "When he's shooting the ball like that, a lot of times I'm standing there watching and, all of a sudden, the other team's getting the ball and going on a fast break (快攻), and I'm getting yelled at by the coach." Indeed, McGrady's body control, his energy, his shooting - watching these is like watching an artist at work, blending colors, constructing sentences, or playing music.

3 Unfortunately, McGrady, 27, hasn't always been on the job. Already this season, he's missed seven games with back spasms (痉挛) After Yao Ming was injured on Dec. 23, it appeared Houston would be without both of its stars. McGrady, however, returned three days later and has been playing well ever since, scoring more than 30 points in each of the last six games, as of Tuesday. Houston can't seem to get on without him. When McGrady was injured, the Rockets won two and lost five

4 "Listen, there are only four or five people on the entire planet that can do the things he can do with the basketball," forward Shane Battier said of McGrady. "From a fan's perspective - and we're fans even though we're players - it's really fun to watch him do that. From a player's perspective, his game (风格) can affect the entire team. No question We see him, and we get excited, and that pumps us up. He keeps making shots, and suddenly it seems to become easier for everybody."

5 But it won't, really. Houston has just begun a tough time. Four of the next seven games will be played away from Houston. Six of the games will be against teams with winning records. Opponents will double-team (双人看守) McGrady in an attempt to dull the impact of his art. Instead of watching, McGrady's teammates will need to create a little art of their own.

American Sports

The United States is a sports-loving nation. Sports in America take a variety of forms:organized competitive struggles, which draw huge crowds to cheer their favorite team to victory;athletic games, played for recreation anywhere sufficient space is found; and hunting and fishing.

Most sports are seasonal, so that what is happening in sports depends upon the time of year. Some sports are called spectator sports, as the number of spectators greatly exceeds the number playing in the game.

Baseball is the most popular sport in the US. It is played throughout the spring and summer,and professional baseball teams play well into the fall. Although no other game is exactly like baseball, perhaps the one most nearly like it is the English game of cricket.

Football is the most popular sport in the fall. The game originated as a college sport more than 75 years ago. It is still played by almost every college and university in the country, and the football stadiums of some of the largest universities seat as many as 80,000 people. The game is not the same as European football or soccer. In American football there are 11 players on each team,and they are dressed in padded uniforms and helmets because the game is rough and injuries are likely to occur.

Basketball is the winter sport in American schools and colleges. Like football, basketball originated in the US and is not popular in other countries. Many Americans prefer it to football because it is played indoors throughout the winter and because it is a faster game. It is a very popular game with high schools, and in more than 20 states, state-wide high school matches are held yearly.

Other spectator sports include wrestling, boxing, and horse racing. Although horse-racing fans call themselves sportsmen, the accuracy of the term is questionable, as only the jockeys who ride the horses in the races can be considered athletes. The so-called sportsmen are the spectators, who do "not assemble" primarily to see the horses race, but to bet upon the outcome of each race.

Gambling is the attraction of horse racing.

答案与解析：

1.C。题干：打猎和钓鱼主要受到美国男人、年轻人和老人的喜爱。题干中的核心结构huntingand fishing和并列结构men，young and old可作为答案线索，可发现答案相关句为首段第二句，但并没有提到men，young and old，所以选择C。

2.A。题干：职业棒球队在春天和夏天的赛季之后还可以继续在秋天打很长时间的球。题干中的关键词Professional baseball teams和the regular baseball seasons of spring and summer可作为答案线索，发现答案相关句为第二段首句。该句句意与问题句一致，该题主要是考查well into the fall(一直到秋季末)结构的.含义。

3.A。题干：棒球和英国的板球有很多共同之处。利用题干中的线索词baseball和cricket寻找答案相关句：可以发现第二段第二句为相关句。该句的句意为“与棒球运动最接近的就是英国的板球”，与题干的句意一致，选择A。

4.A。题干：足球是一种观赏类体育项目。利用题干中的关键词football和spectator sport找到答案相关句：第一段最后一句。该题考查考生的推断能力：既然最大的足球体育馆能容纳80 000名观众，那么根据spectator sports(观赏性运动)的定义，足球应该是spectator sports。

5.B。题干：与橄榄球相比，许多美国人更喜欢篮球，因为橄榄球比较激烈而且还要穿特殊的服装。将题干中的关键词basketball和football作为答案线索找到答案相关句：在第四段，可知美国人喜欢篮球是因为在冬天也可以玩，而且是速度类项目。题干句的说法与该相关句的说法不一致，故选B。

6.A。题干：美国的篮球在大学很流行，全国的大学每年都举办比赛。利用题干中的关键词Basketball进行定位，发现相关内容在第四段最后一句，故答案为A。

7.A。题干：赛马迷们不被认为是运动员，因为他们是观众，而且首要兴趣是赌博。将题干中的horse.racing fans作为答案线索找到相关句：题干在文章末段。根据相关句群的句意(赛马比赛的吸引人之处是赌博，赛马迷只是对赌博感兴趣)，可知题干的说法与这些相关句的说法一致，故选A。
