C新理念英语学习大厅第三册unit6答案(阅读)Reading Comprehension Directions: There are two passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices. Click on the best choice.SET 1 PASSAGE TWO For nearly 20 years the naval garrison of the island of lle de France (now Mauritius) watched the colonys beacon keeper, M. Bottineau, demonstrate what he called nauscopie. He could predict the arrival of ships and the direction from which they would arrive by scanning the horizon with his naked eye. He never used a telescope. The theory which he developed was this: A vessel approaching land produces a certain effect on the atmosphere. This means that the ships approach can be discovered at a great distance by a practiced eye. All of this sounds simple enough, but no one else except Bottineau could come close to his level of success in prediction. He never really explained his method in depth. At first Bottineau merely used his special skill to bet sums of money with people at the base regarding the approach of ships. Because of his unusual success, he soon had trouble finding anyone to bet with him. Between 1778 and 1782 Bottineau correctly forecast the arrival of 575 ships to the island, some of his predictions being made as much as four days in advance. Occasionally a predicted arrival would fail to materialize, but it would usually be found that at the last moment the ship had changed course. On May 15, 1782, the Minister of Marine in France instructed the governor of lle de France to record Bottineaus predictions for two years. Bottineau continued to predict the arrival of ships with unerring success. At the end of the experiment he was offered a lump sum of 10,000 livres and a pension of 1,200 livres a year for life in exchange for a full explanation of his method. He rejected the offer and never did reveal his secret.1. The author of this passage believes that _.A) Bottineau had exceptional skillsB) Bottineaus feats were not that unusualC) Bottineau was a fraudD) Bottineau gained a large sum of money2.

A) Bottineau was luckyB) Bottineaus method was easy to discoverC) there was a secret to Bottineaus successD) Bottineau would sell his secret some dayAnswer:1. 12. 23. 44. 35. 3SET 2 PASSAGE TWO Up until World War II, the president of the United States rarely traveled far from home. Visiting other countries simply took too long, and it cut the president off from the major institutions of government. The rise of air travel made it feasible for the president to move around the globe and return home in short order. In 1943, Franklin Roosevelt became the first acting president to take to the air when he rode a Boeing 314 flying boat to a wartime conference in Casablanca. Roosevelt took the plane because German U-Boats made the seas too treacherous, but the success of the mission established air travel as the standard mode of presidential transportation. Soon, the government decided to assign a military aircraft for presidential use. The Air Force originally selected a C-87A Liberator Express, basically a B-24 bomber designed for civilian operation, which was named the Guess Where To. After another C-87A crashed under
