The Coalition for the Homeless is an organization that seeks to address the needs of the homeless population in the United States．It is a network of offices, some of which provide food and houses for the homeless population．and some of which fight for the passing of laws that would give every American the right to a place to call home．According to the Coalition’s studies, of over two hundred million people living in th United States, up to three million are home!ess－and the number is still growing since the late 1970s, fast rising house prices, large cuts in government supported housing programs, and economic recession have made it impossible for many Americans to meet housing costs．Sadly, this has resulted in a number of persons being forced to leave their homes and or unable to find new affordable homes．According to another research．families with children appear to be the fastest-growing part of the homeless population, making up 39％ of it．The old idea of a homeless person, that of the single man who gets drunk all the time, is no longer true．A much larger part of the population now finds itself homeless．Even worse, once a person becomes homeless, he often finds it impossible to find a job, since most employers require anyone who wants a job from them to provide a home address on a job application

The English and the Continentals

　　In England everything is the other way round．On Sundays on the Continent even the poorest person puts on his best suit, tries to look respectable, and at the same time the life of the country becomes gay and cheerful; in England even the richest lord(勛爵)or motor-manufacturer dresses in some peculiar(特別的, 罕見的)rags, does not shave, and the country becomes dull and sad．On the Continent there is one subject which should be avoided－the weather; in England, if you do not repeat the phrase “lovely day, isn’t it?” at least two hundred times a day, you are considered a bit dull．On the Continent people use a fork as though a fork were a shovel(鏟子); in England they turn it upside down and push everything－including peas－on top of it．

　　On the Continent almost every nation whether little or great has openly declared at one time or another that it is superior to all other nations; the English fight heroic wars to combat these dangerous ideas without ever mentioning which is really the most superior race in the world．Continental people are sensitive and touchy(易生氣的); the English take everything with a sense of humor－they are only offended if you tell them that they have no sense of humor．On the Continent the population consists of a small percentage of criminals, a small percentage of honest people and the rest are a vague transition(過渡, 轉變)between the two; in England you find a small percentage of criminals and the rest are honest people．On the other hand, people on the Continent either tell you the truth or lie; in England they hardly ever lie, but they would not dream of telling you the truth．

　　Many continentals think life is a game; the English think cricket is a game．

(1)

The first sentence “In England everything is the other way round” means that ________．
[　　]
A．	the English intend to live a life quite different from that of the Continentals
B．	the social customs of the English are quite different from those of the Continentals
C．	nothing in England is different from things on the Continent
D．	in England all the things are round, not flat

(2)

Which is NOT the characteristic of the English?
[　　]
A．	They often talk about weather when they meet．
B．	They wear rags on Sundays．
C．	They have a strong sense of humor．
D．	They pay more attention to food than to table manners．

(3)

The first sentence of Paragraph 2 suggests that ________．
[　　]
A．	the English are against the idea that one nation is superior to any other nation
B．	the English don’t care about their reputation
C．	one of the Continental nations is really superior to others
D．	the English think they are the best race in the world

(4)

According to Paragraph 2, most of the Continental people are ________．
[　　]

B．	criminals

The report came to the British on May 21,1941. The German battleship Bismarck, the most powerful warship in the world, was moving out into the Atlantic Ocean. Her task: to destroy the ships carrying supplies from the United States to war-torn England.

The British had feared such a task. No warship they had could match the Bismarck in speed or in firepower. The Bismarck had eight 15-inch guns and 81 smaller guns. She could move at 30 nautical miles(海里) an hour, she was believed to be unsinkable.

However, the British had to sink her. They sent out a task force headed by their best battleship Hood to hunt down the Bismarck. On May 24, the Hood found the Bismarck.

It was a meeting that the German commander Luetjens did not want to see. His orders were to destroy the British ships that were carrying supplies, but to stay away from a fight with British warships.

The battle didn’t last long. The Bismarck’s first torpedo(魚雷)hit the Hood, which went down taking all but three of her 1,419 men with her.

But in the fight, the Bismarck was slightly damaged （損壞）. Her commander decided to run for repairs to France, which had at that time been taken by the Germans. The British force followed her. However, because of the Bismarck’s speed and the heavy fog, they lost sight of her.

For two days , every British ship in the Atlantic tried to find the Bismarck. But with no success. Finally, she was sighted by a plane from Ireland. Trying to slow the Bismarck down so that their ships could catch up with her, the British fired at her from the air. The Bismarck was hit.
