26、Brilliant Ways to Deliver Secret Messages

Many effective ways are used now to deliver secret messages. But in the past when the science and technology was not developing, especially during the war, how did people send secret and important messages?

Shoelaces

In the 1950s, the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency created a book of tips to teach spies ways to communicate in public. One tip: Lace up your shoes. Tied one way, the laces might mean “I have information”: tied another, “Follow me”. The spies could communicate while everyone else probably thought, “That guy can’t tie his shoes correctly!”

Tattooed(刺文身) Head

Around 513 B.C., Histiaeus was forced out as the ruler of an ancient city. So he wanted to send a message to his supporters: Rebel against the king who took away his power.

Histiaeus called in a slave, shaved his head and tattooed the message onto the man’s skin on the top of head. After the slave’s hair grew back, he travelled to Greece with orders to shave his head again. Message received!

Orange Juice

In 1597, John Gerard was imprisoned in the Tower of London in England. He asked the prison guard to let him send letters written in charcoal(木炭). But then he wrote another message on top using the juice from an orange-which was only visible when the juice was dry and the page heated. With his invisible ink, he escaped successfully.

Songs

In the 1800s, African American slaves couldn’t talk openly about their plans to escape to freedom- so they secretly sang about it.

Swing Low, Sweet Chariot might sound like a religious song. But for slaves, the “sweet chariot” was the code for the Underground Railroad, the network of people who helped slaves head to northern states and Canada. The song Wade in the Water warned escaped slaves to get in the water so dogs wouldn’t smell them. With these songs, hundreds of people escaped slavery.

【1】Which way is connected with the spies?

A．Shoelaces.

B．Tattooed Head.

C．Orange Juice.

D．Songs.

【2】How did John Gerard send the secret message?

A．By lacing up his shoes in one way.

B．By tattooing the message on the head.

C．By using letters written with orange juice.

D．By singing a religious song to the prisoners.

【3】What do the listed ways have in common?

A．They set a lot of prisoners free.

B．They enabled the slaves to escape.

C．They helped send secret messages.

D．They made people against the king.

27、If we are to help students develop reading skills in a foreign language, it is important to understand what is involved in the reading process itself. If we have a clear idea of how “good readers” read, either in their own or a foreign language, this will enable us to decide whether particular reading techniques are likely to help learners or not.

In considering the reading process, it is important to distinguish between two quite separate activities: reading for meaning (or “silent reading”) and reading aloud. Reading for meaning is the activity we normally engage in when we read books, newspapers, road signs, etc.; it is what you are doing as you read this text. It involves looking at sentences and understanding the message they convey, in other words “making sense” of a written text. It doesn’t normally involve saying the words we read, not even silently inside our heads; there are important reasons for this, which are outlined below.

Reading aloud is a completely different activity; its purpose is not just to understand a text but to convey the information to someone else. It is not an activity we engage in very often outside the classroom; common examples are reading out parts of a newspaper article to a friend, or reading a notice to other people who can’t see it. Obviously, reading aloud involves looking at a text, understanding it and also saying it. Because our attention is divided between reading and speaking, it is a much more difficult activity than reading silently; we often stumble and make mistakes when reading aloud in our own language, and reading aloud in a foreign language is even more difficult.

When we read for meaning, we do not need to read every letter or every word, nor even every word in each sentence. This is because, provided the text makes sense, we can guess much of what it says as we read it.

【1】The passage is mainly about ____________.

A. reading skills B. silent reading

C. reading processes   D. reading aloud

【2】The underlined word “stumble” in Paragraph 3 means ____________.

A. step over something and fall

B. repeat something or pause for too long

C. walk with heavy movements

D. speak in a fluent and confident way

【3】 We can infer from the passage that the author will continue to ____________.

A. discuss in detail how to read aloud

B. introduce some more reading activities

C. tell how good readers read in their own language

D. explain why we needn’t say the words when reading for meaning

【4】 We can conclude that ____________.

A. reading silently is easier than reading aloud

B. to understand a sentence, you have to read all the words in it

C. silent reading involves looking at a text and saying the words silently to yourself

D. there’s no difference between reading in one’s own language and in a foreign one

29、   Government in Tibet have denied the permanent(永久的) closure of Mount Qomolangma National Nature Reserve.

The announcement came after a report went viral online claiming the base camp of the world's highest mountain was "permanently closed due to heavy pollution" and caused a universal misunderstanding.

Mount Qomolangma National Nature Reserve was set up in 1988. Covering an area of more than 33, 800 square km, it is home to one of the world's weakest ecosystems.

Kelsang, deputy director of the reserve administration, said ordinary tourists are allowed to visit areas around Rongpo Monastery, almost 5, 000 meters above sea level. As for travelers who have a climbing permit, they can go to the base camp at an altitude of 5, 200 meters. The mountaineering activities have been permitted by the regional forestry department.

To protect the environment surrounding Mount Qomolangma, China carried out three major clean-ups at an altitude of 5, 200 meters and above last spring, collecting eight tonnes of household wastes, human wastes and mountaineering trash. This year, the cleanup will continue, and the remains of mountaineering victims(受害者) at above 8, 000 meters will be centrally dealt with for the first time. Meanwhile, the number of people who stay at the base camp will be kept under 300.

Recently, there are 85 wildlife protectors in the reserve, and 1, 000 herders have part-time jobs going around and cleaning up garbage.

These measures aim to strike a balance between various demands such as environmental protection, local poverty relief, mountaineering and education, said Wang Shen, county chief of Dingri at the mountain foot.

【1】Which of the following can replace the underlined words "went viral" in Paragraph 2?

A.spread wildly B.blocked out C.gave away D.shot up

【2】What can we learn according to Kelsang's words about the National Nature Reserve?

A.Most tourists are allowed to visit the base camp.

B.A permit is a must for visitors going to the base camp.

C.The mountaineering activities are not allowed these days.

D.The areas above 5, 200 meters are open to everyone.

【3】Why did the government carry out clean-ups at an altitude of 5, 200 meters and above?

A.To provide a much easier path for mountaineers.

B.To keep mountaineering activities going smoothly.

C.To remove the remains of mountaineering victims.

D.To protect the environment of Mount Qomolangma.

30、In 1946, 23-year-old John Goodenough headed to the University of Chicago. When he arrived with a dream of studying physics, a professor ________ him that he was already too old to succeed in the ________ . Recently, Dr. Goodenough ________ me that story and then laughed. He ________ the professor’s advice and at 94, caused a heated ________ in the tech industry with his strong creativity. He and his team ________ a patent (专利) on a new kind of battery that, if it ________ as promised, would be so cheap, lightweight and safe that it would change electric cars greatly and ________ petroleum-fueled vehicles. This was not the first time Dr. Goodenough had been ________ discussed. In 1980, at age 57, he co-invented the lithium-ion battery (锂电池). In 2019, he was ________ the Nobel Prize for Chemistry.

When I asked him about his late-life ________ he said, “Some of us are turtles; we crawl and ________ along, and we haven’t maybe figured it out by the time we’re 30. But the turtles have to ________ walking.”

Dr. Goodenough started in physics and got ________ with chemistry and materials science, while ________ keeping his eye on the social and political trends. “You have to draw on a fair amount of experience in order to be able to put ________ together,” he said, “I’m grateful for the ________ that have been opened to me in different periods of my life. At just the ________ moment, when I was looking for something, it walked in the door.”
