珍珠港寫作方法與文章大意文章講述了第三帝國成立，美國由中立到宣戰(zhàn)的一段歷史。采用按年代先后進(jìn)行敘述的寫作手法。文章一開始就點(diǎn)明主題：“第三帝國的成立影響了美國歷史，從一系列事情開始，最終導(dǎo)致德國和美國交戰(zhàn)?！贝鸢冈斀獾蹏髲B焚毀，眾所周知，這是納粹希特勒精心策劃的一次政治陰謀，旨在迫害德國共產(chǎn)黨。B.德國征服計(jì)劃。C.納粹之殘暴。D.迫害宗教團(tuán)體。在文中都提到。見第一段第二句“民主的全面摧毀、對(duì)猶太人的迫害、摧殘宗教、納粹的殘忍和野蠻，特別是德國及其盟國意、日、征服世界的計(jì)劃激起美國極大憤怒，也帶來了對(duì)又一次世界大戰(zhàn)的恐懼?！奔訌?qiáng)美國國防。見第二段導(dǎo)數(shù)第五句“1941年的租借法規(guī)定：總統(tǒng)對(duì)他認(rèn)為保衛(wèi)美國所需要的國家有權(quán)賣給、交換或借給他們物資?！盇.幫助英國，不對(duì)。C.促進(jìn)大西洋公約。大西洋公約是1941年8月，羅斯福和邱吉爾會(huì)面后的聯(lián)合公告。D.報(bào)復(fù)珍珠港。是1941年日本發(fā)起襲擊的報(bào)復(fù)。與世隔絕。這在第一段第三句“美國人民雖然反對(duì)希特勒的兇殘等事，他們一般還是喜歡孤立（與世隔絕的）政策和保持中立。1933年和1936年的中立條約規(guī)定：禁止和交戰(zhàn)國雙方貿(mào)易和借貸?！盇.觀察的。C.和平的。D.不正確的。允許把武器賣給交戰(zhàn)國。答案在第二段第六句“1939年的中立條約取消了武器禁運(yùn)，允許進(jìn)行現(xiàn)鈔交易出口武器給交戰(zhàn)國?！盉.和日本敵對(duì)。C.允許英國只能和其盟國貿(mào)易。D.導(dǎo)致租借條約。因?yàn)榈聡麘?zhàn)。這在第一段已有說明。盡管希特勒壞事做盡，美國還是傾向于中立政策。第二段羅斯福在芝加哥的演講，態(tài)度稍有改變。嚴(yán)厲批評(píng)希特勒的政策，但仍然以中立為主。1941年日本襲擊珍珠港，不久德國宣戰(zhàn)，美國才不得不參戰(zhàn)。PassageFourteen(AntarcticaandEnvironment)Antarcticahasactuallybecomeakindofspacestation–auniqueobservationpostfordetectingimportantchangesintheworld’senvironment.Remotefrommajorsourcesofpollutionandthecomplexgeologicalandecologicalsystemsthatprevailelsewhere,Antarcticamakespossiblescientificmeasurementsthatareoftensharperandeasiertointerpretthanthosemadeinotherpartsoftheworld.GrowingnumbersofscientiststhereforeseeAntarcticaasadistant-early-warningsensor,wherepotentiallydangerousglobaltrendsmaybespottedbeforetheyshowuptothenorth.Onepromisingfieldofinvestigationisglaciology.ScholarsfromtheUnitedStates,Switzerland,andFrancearepursuingsevenseparatebutrelatedprojectsthatreflecttheirconcernforthehealthoftheWestAntarcticIceSheet–aconcerntheybelievetheworldatlargeshouldshare.TheTransantarcticMountain,someofthemmorethan14,000feethigh,dividethecontinentintotwoverydifferentregions.Thepartofthecontinenttothe“east”ofthemountainsisahighplateaucoveredbyanicesheetnearlytwomilesthick.“West”ofthemountain,thehalfofthecontinentsouthoftheAmericasisalsocoveredbyanicesheet,buttheretheicerestsonrockthatismostlywellbelowsealevel.IftheWestAntarcticIceSheetdisappeared,thewesternpartofthecontinentwouldbereducedtoasparseclusterofisland.Whileiceandsnowareobviouslycentraltomanyenvironmentalexperiments,othersfocusonthemysterious“dryvalley”ofAntarctica,valleysthatcontainlittleiceorsnoweveninthedepthsofwinter.SlashedthroughthemountainsofsouthernVictoriaLand,thesevalleysonceheldenormousglaciersthatdescended9,000feetfromthepolarplateautotheRossSea.Nowtheglaciersaregone,perhapsacasualtyoftheglobalwarmingtrendduringthe10,000yearssincetheiceage.Eventhesnowthatfallsinthedryvalleysisblastedoutbyviciouswindsthatroardownfromthepolarplateautothesea.Leftbarearespectaculargorges,rippledfieldsofsanddunes,clustersofboulderssculpturedintofantasticshapesby100-mile-an-hourwinds,andanauraofextraterrestrialdesolation.Despitetheunearthlyaspectofthedryvalleys,somescientistsbelievetheymaycarryamessageofhopeoftheverdantpartsoftheearth.Somescientistsbelievethatinsomecasesthedryvalleysmaysoakuppollutantsfasterthanpollutantsenterthem.1.Whatisthebesttitleforthispassage?A.AntarcticaandenvironmentalProblems.B.Antarctica:Earth’sEarly-Warningstation.C.Antarctica:aUniqueObservationPost.D.Antarctica:aMysteriousPlace.2.WhatwouldtheresultbeiftheWestAntarcticIceSheetdisappeared?A.Thewesternpartofthecontinentwouldbedisappeared.B.Thewesternpartofthecontinentwouldbereduced.C.ThewesternpartofthecontinentwouldbecomescatteredIslands.D.ThewesternpartofthecontinentwouldbereducedtoaclusterofIslands.3.WhyaretheDryValleysleftbare?A.Viciouswindblaststhesnowaway.B.Itrarelysnows.C.Becauseoftheglobalwarmingtrendandfiercewind.D.Sanddunes.4.Whichofthefollowingistrue?A.The“DryValleys”havenothingleftinside.B.The“DryValleys”neverheldglaciers.C.The“DryValleys”maycarryamessageofhopefortheverdant.D.The“DryValleys”areuselesstoscientists.Vocabularysensor
