The robbery，which took place at the Damiani showroom in Milan’s fashion district that morning，was compared later with the“perfect scenes”in films such as Ocean’s El

11、even and The Italian Job. The thieves had spent more than a month digging a tunnel from a disused cellar(地下室)in a building joined to the showroom.

19、y make slow progress in their studies. There are also signs，says Professor Martin，that an unusually large number of such children are mentally affected. The professor says，“It’s true，my personal feeling is that children should stay in one school. But our findings are based on research and not on an

20、y personal feelings. ” Captain Thomas James，an Army lecturer for the past 20 years and himself a father of two，said，“I’ve never heard of such rubbish. Taking me for example. no harm is done to the education of my children，who change schools regularly—if they keep to the same system，as in our Army s

21、chools. In my experience—and I’ve known quite a few of them—Army children are as well adjusted as any others，if not more so. What the professor doesn’t appear to appreciate is the fact that in such situation children will adapt much better than grown—ups. " When this reached Professor Martin，he sai

22、d that at no time had his team suggested that all children were backward or mentally affected in some way，but simply that in their experience there was a clear tendency. “Our findings show that while the very bright children can deal with regular changes without harming his or her general progress

27、he organization that eventually became the EU，the Treaty of Rome，stated that each country’s language must be treated equally. The 0riginal six countries had only three languages between them：French，German and Dutch／Flemish. However，there are now 15 countries in the EU，with a total of 12 languages. E

28、U documents must be translated into all these languages，and at official meetings，the speeches must be translated into all the languages by interpreters. All this translating is very expensive and time consuming(費(fèi)時(shí)的). it is said$that nearly half of all employees of the EU are engaged in translating

29、documents and speeches，and nearly half of the EU’s administrative(管理方面的)costs are spent on this task. In the near future it is probably that several more countries，most 0f them having their own languages，will join the EU，thus making the situation even worse. The problem is not just cost：there are p

30、ractical difficulties as well. With 12 languages，there are 132 possible “translation situations” that might be needed. It is often difficult to find people in the right place at the right time who can translate from(for example)Danish into Greek，or Dutch into Portuguese，at a high professional stand

31、ard. In practice，the problem has been made less severe by the use of English in many contacts between EU officials，since almost all of them speak some English. However, any action to reduce the number of official languages(perhaps to four or five)would be a blow to the price of the smaller countrie

32、s. Another commonly suggested solution is to make English the official language for all EU business. However，this is strongly resisted by powerful member countries like France and Germany. 68．What’s the main purpose of this passage? A．To give a solution to a problem． B．To find out a problem and s

33、how how severe it is C．To criticize the European Union for inefficiencv(低效)． D．To show that the problem cannot be solved． 69．According to the writer，the use of English in contacts among EU officals has ． A．a(chǎn)ngered the officials who don’t speak English B．lessened the number of official l

34、anguages C．reduced the effect of the problem D．been supported by powerful member countries 70．The writer mentions“Danish into Greek”as an example of ． A．a(chǎn) situation that might be difficult to deal with B．a(chǎn) situation that occurs often C．one of the 12 situations that requires an interprete

35、r D．languages easily being interpreted 71．The writer suggests that if the number of official languages was reduced， ． A．the EU would not know which official languages to choose B．countries whose languages were not used officially would be unhappy C．only easy languages would be used officia

36、lly D．the smaller member countries would be pleased E “Wanted by the FBI. ”To the murderer，or the bank robber，these are the most frightening words in the world. When the criminal hears them，he knows that six thousand trained persons are after him. Why should he be so afraid? There are thousands

37、of cities and villages where he can hide，and forests and deserts，as well. Besides，he’s usually rich with stolen money. Money can make it easier to hide. With money，the criminal can even pay a doctor to operate on his face and make him hard to recognize. But the criminals know that as public enemies

38、，they can be found by the FBI no matter where they hide. They know every trick the criminal knows and many more. If he makes just one mistake，they’11 get him. That’s why the man who is wanted can’t sleep. That’s why he becomes nervous，why he jumps at every sound. The FBI began on May 10th，1924. Ge

39、neral Harlan Stone chose Edgar Hoover，a young lawyer，to head the new agency(機(jī)構(gòu)). “What we need is a wholly new kind of police force，”he said. “Criminals today are smart. They use stolen cars and even planes to make their gateways. They have learned to open any lock，using advanced technology. We can’

40、t beat them with old methods. We have to train officers to work scientifically. ” Edgar Hoover quietly went ahead with his plans. He picked his men carefully. They had to be between the ages of twenty--five and thirty five. He wanted only men with good manners and good character. When working as h

41、is officers，they would have to meet all kinds of people. Hoover wanted men who could handle a teacup as well as a gun. But the FBI cannot help in every police problem. It can look into only certain crimes against the government. Solving all other crimes is the duty of local police forces. 72．A man
