Passage 1
In the early 1600's, a group known as the Separatists lived in England. They were people
who wanted to worship God, study the Bible and pray, but the English laws did not allow them to worship as they desired. They were hunted down, beaten, and locked up.
Eventually, they heard about freedom of religion in Holland, and planned to escape. After
much hardship, they were allowed to leave England.
Now called Pilgrims, they lived in Holland for 12 years, but left because they couldn't stand
the hard life, and couldn't work their own trades. They wanted to find a Kingdom of God for their posterity to practice religion freely. So they hired the Speedwell and the Mayflower to carry them across the Atlantic to a new land in America.
The Speedwell had many leaks and had to turn back. The Mayflower took in their passengers, making a total of over 100. They sailed two months and three days, cramped and hungry.
On November 11,1620, the Mayflower spotted land. They landed in Province town, Massachusetts. For over a month, they sent men to find the perfect place for them to build their colony. When they finally found a place, they called it Plymouth.
Right away they started building homes, knowing winter was near.
Unfortunately, a violent storm hit when the houses were not yet finished. The Pilgrims were forced to stay on the cramped Mayflower for their first winter in the new world. When this winter was over, over half of them had died.
The Pilgrims eventually made a good friend who helped them. His name was Squanto. He showed them where fish swam, how to hunt deer, and how to plant corn.
Squanto was a Native American who was kidnapped earlier in his life and taken to England. This is why he was able to communicate with the Pilgrims.
With the help of the Native Americans, there was plenty for everyone to eat that first summer, and also plenty to last for the next winter.
The Pilgrims had so much to be thankful for. They gave thanks for good friends, new homes, freedom of religion, and plenty of food in a three-day celebration with their Native American friends.
Today we continue the celebration of the Pilgrims and the Native Americans, and call it Thanksgiving.
21. The Separatists left England in pursuit of ___________
A)wealth
B)adventure
C)an easier life
D)religious freedom
22. The Pilgrims spend their first winter __________
A) in their newly finished houses
B)on the ship that carried them across the Atlantic
C)celebrating their newly-won freedom
D)making friends with the native people
23.The Pilgrims learnt to adapt to the new environment _________
A) with the help of the natives
B)by imitating the Native Americans
C)by trial and error
D)by learning from their earlier experience in Holland
24. How did the Pilgrims get along with the Native Americans?
A)They were hostile to each other.
B)They kept a distance from each other.
C)They were very friendly to each other.
D)They learned from each other.
25. What is the central idea of this passage?
A)The origin of Thanksgiving.
B)Religious Freedom.
C)Early English settlements in America.
D)Hardships experienced by the Pilgrims.
Passage 2
Recently, one of my best friends Jennie, with whom I have shared just about everything since the first day of kindergarten, spent the weekend with me. Since I moved to a new town several years ago, we have both always looked forward to the few times a year when we can see each other.
Over the weekend, we spent hours and hours, staying up late into the night, talking about the people she was hanging around with. She started telling me stories about her new boy friend, about how he experimented with drugs and was into other self-destructive behavior. I was blown away! She told me how she had been lying to her parents about where she was going and even stealing out to see this guy because they didn't want her around him. No matter how hard I tried to tell her that she deserved better, she didn't believe me. Her self-respect seemed to have disappeared.
I tried to convince her that she was ruining her future and heading for big trouble. I felt like I was getting nowhere. I just couldn't believe that she really thought it was acceptable to hang with a bunch of losers, especially her boy friend.
By the time she left, I was really worried about her and exhausted by the experience. It had been so frustrating that I had come close to telling her several times during the weekend that maybe we had just grown too far apart to continue our friendship, but I didn't. I put the power of friendship to the ultimate test. We'd been friends for far too long. I had to hope that she valued me enough to know that I was trying to save her from hurting herself. I wanted to believe that our friendship could conquer anything.
A few days later, she called to say that she had thought long and hard about our conversation, and then she told me that she had broken up with her boy friend. I just listened on the other end of the phone with tears of joy running down my face. It was one of the truly rewarding moments in my life. Never had I been so proud of a friend.
26. What word best sums up Jennie's boy friend?
A)A drug user.

D)A criminal.
27. What was the attitude of Jennie's parents towards her relationship with her boy friend?
A)They were rather tolerant.
B)They were indifferent to it.
C)They thought their daughter deserved a better friend.
D)They did not allow her to continue it.
28. How did the author react to Jennie's relationship with her boy friend?
A)She tried her best to dissuade Jennie from continuing it.
B)She threatened to break up with Jennie if her advice was ignored.
C)She was overcome with pride that Jennie told her about her boy friend.
D)She was very angry with Jennie for choosing such a friend
29. How did the author feel when Jennie told her she had broken with her boy friend?

D) Drugs can destroy innocent young people.
Passage 3
For Roy Johnson, a senior magazine editor, the latest indignity came after a recent dinner at a fancy restaurant in the wealthy New York City suburb where he and his family live. First the parking valet handed him the keys to his Jaguar instead of fetching the car. Then an elderly white couple came out and handed him the keys to their black Mercedes-Benz. "It took them a while to realize that I was not a valet," says Johnson. "It didn't matter that I was dressed for dinner and had paid a handsome price for the meal, just as he had. What mattered was that I didn't fit his idea of someone who could be equal to him."
Such incidents, which are depressingly familiar to African-Americans of all ages, incomes and social classes, help explain why black and white attitudes often differ so completely. A recent survey found that 68 percent of blacks believe racism is still a major problem in America. Only 38 percent of whites agreed.
Many Americans find the gulf between blacks and whites bewildering. After all, official segre-gation is a bad memory and 40 years of laws, policies and court decisions have helped African-Americans make significant progress toward equal opportunity. Indeed, a black man born in Harlem could be the nation's next president.
But racism persists, unmistakable to every black but largely invisible to many whites. (S2) It is evident in the everyday encounters African-Americans have with racial prejudice and discrimination, like the valet parking incident. Such encounters often strike whites as trivial misunderstandings. But they remind blacks that they We often dismissed as less intelligent, less industrious, less honest and less likely to succeed. Some insults are patently racist; others may be evidence of insensitivity or bad manners rather than racial prejudice. But the accumulation of insults feeds anger.
"What is amazing to me is the number of whites who express surprise that any of this happens," observes Mary Frances Berry, chairperson of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, who says she has been watched at shopping malls.
31. The word "valet" in the first paragraph most probably means _______
A)a restaurant owner
B)a driver of expensive cars
C)a wealthy-looking gentleman
D)a restaurant employee taking care of the cars of the diners
32. Roy Johnson was unfairly treated because _________
A)his car was inferior in quality
B)he forgot to wear proper clothes
C)he failed to express himself clearly
D)he is black
33. From the passage we can learn that _________
A)both blacks and whites are bewildered by racism
B)examples of racism are common in the US
C)some government officials have very bad memories
D)a black man born in Harlem will be the next US president
34. It is implied in the passage that many white people deny the presence of racism in the US because
A) they tend to regard instances of racism as trivial misunderstanding
B)they have never seen any instance of racism in their country
C)they believe that black people are inherently less intelligent and less industrious
D)they have always treated black people as their equals
35. Judging from the context, the most possible explanation for Mary Frances Berry's being
watched
at shopping malls is that .
A)she was a national celebrity
B)she didn't fit people's idea of an Afro-American woman
C)many people nowadays are insensitive and rude
D)she is black
Passage 4
Add Littleton, Colorado, to the list of cities dazed with grief after a school slaughter. Two students shot and killed 12 other students and a teacher before taking their own lives. The massacre was the largest in the history of this nation. This type of crime didn't exist 10 years ago.
Americans should stop acting surprised that these shootings happen in "nicer" neighborhoods. That's the only place they happen. None of the recent school massacres took place at an inner-city campus; they all occurred in smaller towns or suburbs. (S3) These killers haven't been from impoverished or extremely violent families. They don't appear to have been picked on any worse than kids have been for generations. They chose alienation and destruction, and they found the tools to carry out their hate-filled plan.
Do not blame schools for these massacres. Schools simply take what they are sent. Question the killers' parents. The parents are supposed to teach their children respect and empathy for others' lives. Parents should help their offspring learn to handle taunt or conflict without resorting to violence.
All concerned adults should take a youth's threat to shoot someone as seriously as airport security guards take jokes about bombs. Students must be encouraged to tell teachers if a classmate threatens or jokes about violence. Administrators at schools around the country need to emphasize they will take such reports seriously, and that they will not identify any student who comes forward with such a report.
More gun regulations probably won't stop these shootings, but gun owners and sellers must take more responsibility for keeping weapons away from young people. Gun owners should keep their guns unloaded, locked up and hidden away. Most car owners don't leave their keys in the car
even when they park in their own garage; gun owners should be at least as careful with weapons.
The federal government can't solve this problem. Schools alone can't solve it. More guns won't solve it. Americans must consciously create a culture that makes violence unacceptable. Parents need to stop allowing their children's minds to be polluted with violence. News media need to show more restraint and thought about how and what they report.
The Colorado massacre is a national tragedy. More's the pity if Americans do not stop, reflect and vow to make it the last school massacre.
36. One common feature of all the recent school massacres is that _________ .
A)they have all been carefully planned by hateful youngsters
B)the killers have all failed to passed their exams
C)they all occur in places that appear to be all right
D)the killers are all from disadvantaged families
37. Children are less likely to become killers if ___________ .
A)their parents succeed in teaching them respect and empathy for others' lives
B)they study hard in school and get high scores
C)teachers stop telling meaningless jokes in class
D)they follow the rules set by administrators at schools around the country
38. Who does the author think should take the main responsibility for campus shootings?
A)School authorities.
B)The federal government.
C)News media.
D)The killers' parents.
39. What is the most effective way to prevent school massacre from happening again?
A)Reinforcing stricter laws and regulations.
B)Introducing security guards onto campus.
C)Creating a culture that makes violence unacceptable.
D)Keeping weapons away from young people.
40. From the passage we can infer that _________ .
A)there were a lot of school massacres in inner-cities 10 years ago
B)many people turn a blind eye to school massacre
C)a youth’s joke about violence is often ignored by other people
D)Most gun owners like to leave their guns in their cars
Part 3 Short Answer Questions
We come by business naturally in our family. Each of the seven children in our family worked in our father's store. We started working by doing odd jobs like dusting, arranging shelves and wrapping, and later graduated to serving customers. As we worked and watched, we learned that work was about more than survival and making a sale.
One lesson stands out in my mind. It was shortly before Christmas. I was in the eighth grade and was working evenings, straightening the toy section. A little boy, five or six years old, came in. He was wearing a worn-out brown coat. His shoes were dirty and his one shoelace was torn. The little boy looked poor to me — too poor to afford anything. He looked around the toy section, picked up this item and that, and then carefully put them back in their place.
Dad came down the stairs and walked over to the boy. His steel blue eyes smiled as he asked the boy what he could do for him. The boy said he was looking for a Christmas present to buy his brother. I was impressed that Dad treated him with the same respect as any adult. Dad told him to take his time and look around. He did.
After about 20 minutes, the little boy carefully picked up a toy plane, walked up to my dad and said, "How much for this, Mister"
"How much you got" Dad asked.
The little boy held out his hand and opened it. His hand was creased with wet lines of dirt from clutching his money. In his hand lay two dimes, a nickel and two pennies — 27 cents. The price on the toy plane he'd picked out was $3.98.
"That'll just about do it," Dad said as he closed the sale. Dad's reply still rings in my ears.
I thought about what I had seen as I wrapped the present. When the little boy walked out of
the store, I didn't notice the worn coat or the single torn shoelace. What I saw was a radiant child with a treasure.
41. What did the boy try to do with the little money he had?
42. How did Dad in the story treat the little boy?
43. How did the boy feel when he left the store?
44. What did the author learn from his father's act?
45. What did Winston Churchill mean by saying "You make a living by what you get, but you make
a life by what you give"

浅析中国大学的英语教学现状
浅析中国大学的英语教学现状 摘要：英语作为一种国际性语言已是一个无可非议的事实，在我国科研创造、经济商贸和国际交往中的作用也是有目共睹的。为适应我国高等教育发展的新形式，深入英语教学改革，提高英语教学质量，满足新时期国家和社会对人才培养的需要，全国多所高校近几年开展了大学英语教学改革试点工作。本文从教师的教学方式、师资队伍、应试教学倾向等方面对中国大学的英语教学现状进行了阐述。 关键词：高校；英语；教学 目前从高校应届毕业生的反响来看，大学英语教育水平的高低渐渐成了衡量当代大学综合实力的一个重要参考标准，英语四六级在大学阶段的重要性逐年得到重视，也是应聘者简历上的重要参数，为适应时代发展，我国各地高校开始陆陆续续在英语教学上开始了新的尝试。 一、高校英语课堂亟待新的英语教学模式 据2010年央视关于大学生英语学习情况的一份调查报告显示：许多大学英语教师在教学中仍然采用传统的教育理念，对现代教育思想和语言学习特点缺乏基本的理解。而教师的现代教育理念意识薄弱，对大学英语教学却是致命的威胁。另外大多数高等院校课堂教学效果不理想，被学生认可的程度颇低。因为其相对单一的教学方式不能满足当代学生
的需求，从而导致大量学生缺课。究其原因主要是：很多教师课堂教学模式只是“一本书”，“一只笔”，“一言堂”，学生总是被动的接受，没有主动参与的机会，从而违背了语言的交际本质。然而，现代教育技术迅猛发展，正把人类带入知识经济的时代。知识将取代物质、能源和资本成为促进生产力发展的第一生产力。在这样一个新的形势下，传统的教育观念、手段和方法将面临巨大的挑战。社会的高度信息化和知识经济的蓬勃发展，使得课程教学的网络化、信息化是必然趋势，大学的英语教学应该摆脱传统的单一模式，将大学教学内容与高中内容相结合、课堂授课与课后自主学习相结合、光盘多媒体与网络教学相结合、第一课堂与第二课堂相结合，使教学满足学生个性化学习的实际需要，实现从以教师为中心、单纯传授语言知识和技能的教学模式，向以学生为中心、既传授一般的语言知识与技能，又注重培养语言运用能力和自主学习能力的教学模式的转变，从而增加学生自主学习的动力达到事半功倍的效果。 二、高校对英语教学的投入较少，师资力量不足 随着在校大学生数量的急剧增加，大学英语师资不足的矛盾日显突出。特别是一些地方性的普通高校，外教资源严重匮乏，这种现状一部分导致成为大学英语教师的门槛越来越低、绝大多数的新教师毕业后就立刻开始授课，使得大学英语教师的教学水平参差不齐，同时，这几年高等教育招生

[5]?Typical jokes or humorous stories have a three-part?anatomy?that is easily recognized.?First is the SETUP (or?setting), next is the BODY (or story line), and these are followed by the PUNCH LINE[N]?(an unexpected or surprise ending) which will make the joke funny if it contains some humor.?Usually all three parts are present, and each must be clearly presented[N].?It helps if the story/joke teller uses gestures and language which are well known to the audience. [6]?Humor, as a form of entertainment, can be analyzed in order to discover what makes a funny story or joke seem funny.?Here, for example, are some of the most common types of humor. They range from the most obvious humor to the more subtle types. [7]?"SLAP-STICK" is the most obvious humor.?Its language is simple, direct, and often makes fun of another person or group.?Slap-stick was and is the technique of the stand-up comedian[N]?and the?clown.?It appeals to all ages and all cultures.?Nearly every English-speaking?comedian?in this century has used the following joke in one form or another.?One man asks another, "Who was that lady I saw you with last night?"?The other replies, "That was no lady, that was my wife."The humor lies in the fact that the second man is saying that his wife is not a lady.In other words, she is not a refined woman.?The joke is no less funny because it is so often used.?The audience knows in advance what will be said, because it is classic humor, and any audience values it even more because of its?familiarity. [8]?Chinese "cross-talk" is a special type of slap-stick in which two Chinese comedians humorously discuss topics such as?bureaucrats, family problems, or other personal topics.?Cross-talk can be heard anywhere from small village stages to the largest Beijing theatres, and to radio and television.?It is clearly a traditional form of humor well understood by Chinese people.

大学英语教学与中国传统文化的渗透
龙源期刊网 https://www.sodocs.net/doc/4511419578.html, 大学英语教学与中国传统文化的渗透 作者：向莉萍 来源：《职业时空》2014年第02期 摘要：针对大学英语教学中中国传统文化的缺失现象，分析了在大学英语教学中渗透中国传统文化的必要性，并从学习具有中国特色的中国英语、增加传统文化教学内容、实施对比教学、增加学生阅读量、拓宽知识面、开设丰富多彩的课外活动等方面提出了在英语教学中渗透中国传统文化的方法和途径，对提高大学英语教学效果，培养学生文化交流意识具有重要的实践指导价值。 关键词：大学英语教学；中国传统文化；英语学习 一、大学英语教学中中国传统文化的缺失 众所周知，语言和文化是密不可分的，语言是文化的产物，同时又是文化的载体，承担着传承文化的重任；而文化是语言存在的环境，是人类用来表达思想、传递感情的交际工具。Widdowson（1983）指出，语言学习应确立学习目的，而大部分人学习语言的目的都是为了交流，尤其是进行跨文化交流。交流本身是双向的，交流的进行意味着吸收和传播，两者不可缺少的。随着时代的发展，中国大学英语教学理念亦在悄然发生着变化，从最初的侧重于听说读写等语言技能的学习逐渐转向了对跨文化交流的重视，在大学英语教学中大量增加了目的语国家的人文、地理、风俗、习惯等方面的知识，这对促进英语学习者对英语国家文化的了解、更好地利用语言进行交流起到了积极的促进作用。但同时，也呈现出一定的认识偏颇，这种跨文化交流更多表现出了一种单向的交流，以课程设置而言，有精读、视听说、英美文学选读、英美概况、英美报刊等，所涉及的内容、练习和测试也是以英美文化为主，至于博大精深的中国文化，在大学英语的教学过程中几乎完全被忽略。而且由于受到强势文化的侵入，绝大多数学生更愿意了解和获取西方文化知识，他们对中国传统文化要么知之甚少，要么不能用恰当的英语表达中国文化，导致跨文化交际能力发展失衡，不但无法满足交流对象对中国传统文化的了解需求，而且由于表达不准确，容易造成外国人对中国文化的误解，从而产生了“中国文化失语现象”。 二、大学英语教学中渗透中国传统文化的必要性 1.有利于继承和弘扬中国优秀传统文化 中国传统文化是由华夏民族为主流的多元文化在长期的历史发展过程中沉淀而成的，包括思想观念、价值取向、道德情操、社会准则、风俗习惯、宗教信仰、文学艺术等方面。它是中华民族几千年文明的结晶，其内容博大精深，具有鲜明的民族特色和稳定的形态。随着经济的快速发展和改革开放的不断深入，全民英语学习热情日益升温，以英语为主要语种所承载的西

为自己而写 从孩提时代，我还住在贝尔维尔时，我的脑子里就断断续续地转着当作家的念头，但直等到我高中三年级，这—一想法才有了实现的可能。在这之前，我对所有跟英文课沾边的事都感到腻味。我觉得英文语法枯燥难懂。我痛恨那些长而乏味的段落写作，老师读着受累，我写着痛苦。 弗利格尔先生接我们的高三英文课时，我就准备着在这门最最单调乏味的课上再熬上沉闷的一年。弗利格尔先生在学生中以其说话干巴和激励学生无术而出名。据说他拘谨刻板，完全落后于时代。我看他有六七十岁了，古板之极。他戴着古板的毫无装饰的眼镜，微微卷曲的头发剪得笔齐，梳得纹丝不乱。他身穿古板的套装，白衬衣领扣外的领带打得——丝不苟。他救着古板的尖下巴，古板的直鼻梁，说起话来—·本正经，字斟句酌，彬彬有礼，活脱脱一个橱稽的老古董。 我作好准备，打算在弗利格尔先生的班上一无所获地混上—·年，不少日子过去了，还真率出所料。后半学期我们学写随笔小品文。弗利格尔先生发下一张家庭作业纸，出了不少题供我们选择。像“暑假二三事”那样傻乎乎的题目倒是一个也没有，但绝大多数—样乏味。我把作文题带回家，——直没写，直到要交作业的前一天晚上。我躺在沙发上，最终不得不面对这一讨厌的功课，便从笔记本里抽出作文题目单粗粗—看。我的目光落在“吃意大利细面条的艺术”这个题目上。… 这个题目在我脑海里唤起了一连串不同寻常的图像。贝尔维尔之夜的清晰的回忆如潮水一般涌来，当时，我们大家——起围坐在晚餐桌旁——艾伦舅舅、我母亲、查理舅舅、多丽丝、哈尔舅舅——帕特舅妈晚饭做的是意大利细面条。那时意大利细面条还是很少听说的异国食品。多丽丝和我都还从来没吃过，在座的大人也是经验不足，没有—个吃起来得心应手的。艾伦舅舅家诙谐有趣的场景全都重现在我的脑海中，我回想起来，当晚我们笑作—团，争论着该如何地把面条从盘子上送到嘴里才算合乎礼仪。 突然我就想描述那…切，描述当时那种温馨美好的气氛，但我把它写下来仅仅是想白得其乐，而不是为弗利格尔先生而写。那是我想重新捕捉并珍藏在心中的一个时刻。我想重温那个夜晚的愉快。然而，照我希望的那样去写，就会违反我在学校里学的正式作文的种种法则弗利格尔先生也肯定会打它—个不及格。没关系。等我为自己写好了之后，我可以再为弗利格尔先生写点什么别的东西。 等我写完时已是半夜时分，再没时间为弗利格尔先生写——篇循规蹈矩、像模像样的文章了。第二天上午，我别无选择，只好把我为自己而写的贝尔维尔晚餐的故事交了上去。两天后弗利格尔先生发还批改过的作文，他把别人的都发了，·就是没有我的。我正准备着遵命—放学就去弗利格尔先生那儿挨训，却看见他从桌上拿起我的作文，敲了敲桌子让大家注意听。 “好了，孩子们，”他说。“我要给你们念一篇小品文。文章的题目是：吃意大利细面条的艺术。” 于是他开始念了。是我写的!他给全班大声念我写的文章。更不可思议的是，全班同学都在听着他念，而且听得很专心。有人笑出声来，接着全班都笑了，不是轻蔑嘲弄，而是乐乎乎地开怀大笑。就连弗利格尔先生也停顿了两三次，好抑制他那丝拘谨的微笑。我尽力不流露出得意的心情，但是看到我写的文章竟然能使别人大笑，我真是心花怒放。就在十——年级，可谓是最后的时刻，我找到了一个今生想做的事。这是我整个求学生涯中最幸福的——刻。弗利格尔先生念完后说道：“瞧，孩子们，这就是小品文，懂了没有。这才是一知道吗——这才是小品文的精髓，知道了没有。祝贺你，贝克先生。”他这番话使我沉浸 在十全十美的幸福之中

3.Many products for sale seem to scream at us, "Buy me! Buy me!" Advertising is a big busin ess in our world with many products competing for our attention. Think of the last time you boug ht clothes. You probably noticed the variety of colors, patterns, fabrics and brands you could choo se from. Which kind of soft drink would you like to have today or what kind of computer do you want? Advertisers are skilled in the art of making their products look the best to appeal to our se nses. But products aren't always what they seem. Sometimes advertising is deceptive and as cons umers ,we must be careful about what we choose to buy. It is important to learn to compare prod ucts and identify our purpose in purchasing the things we need. But the good thing about advertising is that it helps people to make decisions and refine thei r choices. In the United States, the Ad Council creates timely public service messages to the nation. Th eir purpose is to raise awareness of public problems that citizens can respond to. Inspiring ads ca use individuals to take action and even save lives. Pollution in America, for example has been red uced over the years because of the creative Public Service advertisements that the council provid es" Please, please don't be a litter bug, 'cause every 'litter bit' hurts." Many families have taught t heir children to place litter in the trash can in response to this catchy phrase, which has affected g enerations as each succeeding generation has taught their children not to litter. 4.Nature imposes difficult conditions upon the earth from time to time . The tornado and fo rest fire destroy natural resources ,homes and other structures ,and very often harm or kill peopl e . Technological tragedies happen with little or no warning as we see trains crash and airplanes f all from the sky shortly after take-off. As tragic as calamities are , they seem to bring out the best in human nature . people trained in em ergency care arrive at the scene and begin assisting the inj ured .Others come with equipment to remove debris. Men , women ,and young people willingly c ome to the scene of an accident , hoping to be of help in some way . These selfless acts of kindne ss make our world a better place . compassion eases the wounds of calamities. American Airlines flight number 587 crashed less than three minutes after taking off from JF K Airport in New York in November,2001. Witnesses s aw an engine fire develop on the plane’s nu mber one engine located under the left wing of the aircraft .seconds later ,the airliner crashed int o eight homes ,completely destroying four of them .All 260 people aboard the airplane were kille d along with six people at the crash site ,leaving many people to mourn the loss of their loved on es .the residents (people who live in the area of the crash ) rallied together to comfort those griev ing, while others removed bodies from the wreckage and did the necessary clean-up. 工程实施困难的条件下在地上的时候。龙卷风和森林火灾破坏自然资源,房屋和其他建筑物,和经常伤害或杀死人。技术的悲剧发生在很少或没有预警,因为我们看到火车事故,飞机起飞后不久就从天空坠落。一样悲惨的灾难,他们似乎显示出人性中最好的。在急诊受训的人到达现场并开始帮助受伤的人则跟设备清除残骸。男人,女人,和年轻人自愿来到事故现场,希望能有帮助。这些无私的善举让我们的世界变得更美好。同情减轻灾害的伤口。 美国航空公司587号航班坠毁不到三分钟后从纽约肯尼迪机场起飞,11月2001。目击者看到一个引擎火灾发展在飞机上的1号引擎位于下飞机的左翼,接着后,客机坠毁八家,完全摧毁了四个260名乘客的飞机遇难连同6人在事故现场,造成许多人悼念失去的亲人,居民(住在崩溃的面积)聚集在一起,安慰那些悲伤,而另一些人则从残骸,并把尸体移走必要的清理。 5.Success can be reached in different ways by people in different careers.
