Passage Two
Winston Churchill was one of the central statesmen of the 20th century and, almost
50
years after his
death, remains a
subject of
enduring fascination. Part of
the
current
interest in this
venerable figure
can be attributed to two
superb biographies written in
the
1980s by
historian William
Manchester: "The Last Lion:
Visions of
Glory"
and
,.The
Last Lion: Alone."
These fwo books examined the first two-thirds of
Churchill's
life.
Unfortunately, after completing the
second volume, Manchester's health declined and
the rest of
the project
stalled. So great was public
interest in
the long-delayed final
volume that it
was the
subject of
a front
page story in The New York Times.
Eventually, in
2003, Manchester asked his friend Paul Reid to
complete the trilogy.
Now, nearly a
decade later, Reid
has published The Last Lion, the final piece of
this
monumental undertaking. Reid
starts when Churchill was appointed prime minister in
May
1940 and follows him
through his
death in
1965. While
most of
this volume is
appropriately devoted to World War II, it
also includes the vast expansion of the British
welfare
state following
the war, the
start of the Cold
War and the enormous dangers it
carried, and the loss of the British Empire.
Reid has written
a thorough and complete analysis of
these yeaxs, and it
is
a worthy
finale to
the first two
volumes. Exhaustively researched and carefully written, it
draws
on a full
range of primary
and secondxy
matenals. This book will
be
essential reading
for
those who
enjoyed the first two
volumes and those with a
deep interest in
understanding this
seminal figure
and his place in history.
Reid
does a
wonderful job
of
capturing Churchili in
all
his
complexity. He
gives
Churchill great praise for
his
personal courage and inspirational leadership during the
dark days when Britain
stood alone, but he is
equally clear about Churchill's poor
strategic judgments,
such
as the efforts to
defend Greece and Crete, the Allied
assault
on Anzio,
and the
decision to
send the battleship Prince of
Wales and battle
cruiser
Repulse to the South China
Sea without
adequate air
cover where they were promptly
sunk by the
Japanese.
He highligl$s Churchill's naivetd in
dealing with
Soviet Fremier Stalin in
the early
years of
the war, but praises his prescience in
anticipating Stalin's land grab in
Eastern
at the
end of
the conflict. Reid
also gives
welcome attention to
aspects of
the

But as the Grand Narrative of Progress came to dominate other values and views,

Fertilizers increased crop production but also increased the growth of algae in lakes

1 / 29 十万种考研考证电子书、题库视频学习平台 圣才电子书 武汉大学2016年博士研究生入学考试英语试题及详解 Part Ⅰ Reading Comprehension (2分×20=40分) Directions: In this part for the test, there will be 5 passages for you to read. Each passage is followed by 4 questions or unfinished statement, and each question or unfinished statement is followed by four choices marked A, B, C and D. You are to decide on the best choice by blackening the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET. Passage 1 My last flight to Rome landed at stupid o’clock in the morning so I was almost looking forward to getting a cup of hot coffee from the flight crew. Instead, I opted for holding my eyelids up with two fingers so I could find the first coffee shop in the airport. Coffee always tastes terrible on planes and there could be a simple—and disgusting—reason why. A couple of weeks ago, an assortment of airline employees spilled some of their industry’s secrets in an Ask Reddit thread, and two of them had some unpleasant things to say about the coffeemakers. A user named Muddbutt7 wrote: “Sometimes, the vehicle that fills the potable water for washing hands and making coffee is parked next to the vehicle that is used to dump the [toilets] and fill the blue juice for the lavatories. They’re not supposed to. Sometimes, they’re parked at a distance from each other, which is policy, yet the guy who is filling the 2 / 29 十万种考研考证电子书、题库视频学习平台 圣才电子书 water is using gloves that he hasn’t changed in over 2 years.” While a second user named WorsetoWorser added: “The coffee is absolutely disgusting because no one washes the container that goes out every morning. The station agents who get paid way too little don’t give a [expletive] about cleaning it. I certainly didn’t when I worked for AA. Also, because we weren’t given the proper supplies to clean it. We pretty much just rinsed it out and dumped coffee into it.” After reading those sort of stomach-churning confessions, Huffington Post attempted to determine how true those statements are. Abbie Unger, a former flight attendant, told the site: “It is true that the potable water tanks are not cleaned. But they are only filled with potable (drinkable) water, so it’s not like there is old coffee in a big container somewhere. The water doesn’t make for an excellent cup of coffee, but it’s not unsafe.” So basically, the reason that cup of Starbucks during your Delta flight tastes worse than the cup you had at the airport is because of the water, which is a point that has been raised previously. The Environmental Protection Agency began investigating the safety of the water on airplanes in 2004, after discovering that 15%—or 1.5 out of every 10 planes—tested positive for coliform bacteria in the drinking water. In 2013, NBC 5 looked into whether those numbers had improved and discovered that 12% of planes had at least one positive test for coliform in what 3 / 29 十万种考研考证电子书、题库视频学习平台 圣才电子书 was then the EPA’s most recent survey. Although the EPA said that there had not been any cases of anyone getting sick from the water onboard a plane, insiders still say that the tanks—and fire hoses that are used to fill them—can be pretty gross (“pretty gross” is a highly scientific term). In a Forbes piece called “Why Airline Crews’ Skip the Coffee and Tea On Board,” former US Air employee John Goglia wrote: “Thirty years ago when I was working for USAir, we began a process to bleach the water tanks that hold the water and flush out the system. This was done on a regular basis. Yet, it was clear to anyone working on these tanks and their hoses that a lot of sediment was accumulating in the system, sediment that was akin to pond scum. Even after the tanks were bleached and flushed, some sediment always remained.” Of course, there could be other reasons why the coffee tastes so unpleasant. Cornell University scientists believe that the load, inescapable sound of cabin noise can affect the way we both perceive and taste foods during flight. Either way, we might just stick with coffee served at ground level from now on. 1. What attitudes did the author have towards the coffee on planes according to the passage? A. longing B. negative C. indifferent D. melancholy 4 / 29 十万种考研考证电子书、题库视频学习平台 圣才电子书 2. _____is basically the cause of the terrible coffee taste on planes. A. The unwashed container that goes out every morning B. The unchanged gloves of the crew member C. The water used for making coffee D. The improper supplies used to clean the container 3. According to the context, what possibly is the Chinese meaning of the word “coliform” in Paragraph 9? A. 大肠菌 B. 幽门螺杆菌 C. 沙门氏菌 D. 曲状杆菌 4. Which of the following is INCORRECT according to US Air employee John Goglia? A. There was a regular process to bleach the water tanks and flush out the system. B. A lot of sediment was accumulating in the tanks and their hoses. C. None of the sediment remained after cleaning. D. Sediment was similar to pond scum. 【答案与解析】 1. B 观点态度题。由文章第一段末句“Coffee always tastes terrible on planes and there could be a simple – and disgusting – reason why”和全文最后一句“Either way, we might just stick with coffee served at ground level from now on”可知作者对飞机上提供的咖啡的态度是消极的，故选B。 2.
