People have used pigeons to carry messages to one another for hundreds of years. In the 12th century, the royal palaces of Iraq and Syria included pigeon houses so the kings could be kept informed of their generals’ victories and defeats on the battlefield. In fact, pigeons were a common way to send messages right up through World War II.
Many countries, such as the United States, England, France, Germany, and Italy, in both World War I and World War II, used carrier pigeons. Not only were the birds often the fastest, most reliable way to send messages, they could also be used to reach soldiers far behind enemy lines, where radios and field telephone lines were useless. Since they could easily be released (释放) from airplanes or ships, every branch of the armed services used the birds. In World War II, more than 3,000 soldiers and 150 officers were needed to care for and train the tens of thousands of birds in the U.S. Pigeon Service.
Carrying messages could be a dangerous job. Some pigeons performed with such bravery that they became famous and were even awarded medals, such as England’s Dicken Medal of Gallantry. In a few cases, pigeons even became prisoners of war. In 1918 American forces captured a pigeon named Kaiser, which had been trained to fly special missions for Germany during battle. He was taken to America, where he lived to the age of 32. The most famous pigeon of all may have been Cher Ami. Stationed in France during World War I, he carried twelve important messages for American forces. On his last mission, though wounded, he carried a message that saved the lives of 194 American soldiers. For his extraordinary service, he was awarded the French “Croix de Guerre.”
Carrier pigeons are a slightly different breed (品种) from the kind of pigeons you see on city streets. They are much thinner and taller, with longer legs. Many people find carrier pigeons ugly because of their big wattle, a bent buildup of skin on the beak（鸟嘴）; however, people who raise pigeons often enjoy this strange appearance and consider carriers the best of their breed.
Today, modern communication methods can carry information from one place to another hundreds of times faster than a pigeon could do. However, few people would argue with the fact that carrier pigeons—especially those that served in the military—have earned their place in history. Stories about brave pigeons such as Cher Ami, President Wilson, and Colonel’s Lady have the power to inspire us as no fax machine or high-speed Internet connection could ever do.
【小题1】Many countries used carrier pigeons in the war because_______.
| A．they could be believed in |
| B．they were easily raised |
| C．they could reach the enemy lines |
| D．they could hardly be found by airplanes |
| A．Carrier pigeons could fly to places where radios and telephone lines were useless. |
| B．For his extraordinary service, Cher Ami was awarded the French “Croix de Guerre”. |
| C．In World War II, more than 3,000 soldiers were needed to care for and train the pigeons. |

阅读理解
We spent a few days in Paris last week. We visit the famous city quite regularly. After all, it only takes three hours from London to Pairs. It’s always a pleasure visiting places we really like, exploring areas we’ve never been.
The only unlucky thing this time was the weather. As soon as we got there the temperature reached almost 35 degrees C (which lasted until we left). It was so hot that Matthew just couldn’t stand it — for him, it wasn’t the most enjoyable trip. I felt sorry for him because every time we go there he has to put up with (忍受) my endless shopping spree (狂欢) …
Because of the heat, we ended up just having lots of ice-cream and drinks most of the time, although we managed to pay a few visits to the new Herme shop on rue de Vaugirard at least. It’s not as busy as the shop on rue Bonaparte so you can choose whatever you like without worrying about a queue behind you! I really enjoyed his bread this time as well as the cakes. And I must say that his Croissant aux Amandes and Bostock were simply the best I’ve ever had.
1.Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?
|
A．It was the first time for the writer to go to Paris. |
|
B．It was a long way from London to Paris. |
|
C．The writer lives in London. |
|
D．The writer only likes to go to places she has never been to. |
2. The underlined word “stand” in the second paragraph means ____.
|
A．享受 |
B．忍受 |
C．站立 |
D．位于 |
3. What can you know about Matthew from the second paragraph?
|
A．He doesn’t like shopping. |
B．He doesn’t like travelling. |
|
C．He is one of the writer’s relatives. |
D．He isn’t a good husband. |
4. The shops on rue Bonaparte ____.
|
A．has no bread that the writer likes |
B．is often crowded with customers |
|
C．don’t have anything the writer likes |
D．is not very busy all the time |
5.What’s the best title for the passage?
|
A．An unpleasant trip |
B．A great city |
|
C．A shopping centre |
D．A trip to Paris |
