existed for at least six thousand years.it was always evil and usually foolish，but in the past the human race managed to live with it.modern skill has changed this.either man will stop war，or war will stop man.for the present，it is nuclear weapons that cause the greatest danger，but bacteriological(细菌的)or chemical weapons may，before long，offer an even greater threat.if we succeeded in stopping war，there would be no danger for us.to do this，we need to persuade mankind to look upon international questions in a new way，not by contests of force，in which the victory goes to the side which is most skillful in massacre(大屠杀)，but by arbitration(仲裁) in accordance with agreed principles of law.it is not easy to change old mental habits，but this is what must be attempted.there are those who say that the adoption of this or that ideology(意识形态) would prevent war.i believe this to be a complete error.all ideologies are based upon beliefs without proof which are, at best, doubtful，and at worst，totally false.those people who believe them are willing to go to war in support of them.the movement of world opinion during the past two years has changed very largely such as we can welcome.it has become a common belief that nuclear war must be avoided.of course，very difficult problems remain in the international world，but the spirit in which they are being approached is a better one than it was some years ago.it has begun to be thought，even by the powerful men who decide whether we shall live or die，that agreements should be reached even if both sides do not find these agreements wholly satisfactory.it has begun to be understood that the important conflict(冲突) nowadays is not between east and west，but between man and the hbomb.1 from the first paragraph we can know that_.awe may face greater threat from weaponsbbacteriological or chemical weapons are less dangerous than nuclear weaponscmans idea of victory has changedddangerous weapons are forbidden in modern society2 according to the author，_.ait is impossible to live without warbthe difference between east and west will lead to warcwar must be stopped if man wants to survivedwar will be stopped by modern skill3 the author believes that the only way to stop war is to_.astop nuclear weaponsbsettle international issues through agreementscdestroy bacteriological and chemical weaponsdlet the stronger side take over the world4 the last paragraph suggests that_.anuclear war will definitely not take placebreal agreements have been now reachedcworld opinion is still divided on nuclear wardman is beginning to realize that nuclear war is his greatest enemy5 which of the following words can best describe the authors feeling in writing this passage?adisappointed. bdoubtful.cworried. dhopeful.bcharlie boswell has always been a great hero.he has inspired thousands of people to rise above circumstances and live out true meaning of life.he was blinded during world war while rescuing his friend from a tank that was under fire.he was a great athlete before the accident.in order to prove his talent and determination，he decided to try a brand new sport，a sport he never imagined playing，even with his eyesightgolf！through determination and a deep love for the game he became the national blind golf champion！he won that honor 13 times.one of his heroes was the great golfer ben hogan，so it truly was an honor for charlie to win the ben hogan award in 1958.upon meeting ben hogan，charlie was respectful and stated that he had one wish and it was to have one round of golf with the great ben hogan.mr.hogan agreed that playing a round together would be an honor for him as well，as he had heard about all of charlies accomplishments and truly admired his skills.“would you like to play for money，mr.hogan？” asked out charlie.“i cant play you for money，it wouldnt be fair！” said mr.hogan.“aw，come on mr.hogan.$1,000 per hole！”“i cant，what would people think of me，taking advantage of you and your circumstance？” replied the sighted golfer.“chicken，mr.hogan？”“okay，” replied the embarrassed hogan，“but i am going to play my best！”“i wouldnt expect anything else，” said the confident boswell.“now that youre on.mr.boswell，you name the time and the place！”the very selfassured boswell responded，“10 oclock.tonight！”6 why didnt mr.hogan want to play charlie for money?ahe was worried he would lose the match.bhe thought it was unfair for charlie.che didnt care about money.dh
