But its not so good for the tongue. Unfortunately for the US soldiers of World War II, the chocolate bars the army gave them tasted like they were intended for use in the bath.In the armys defense, it wasnt trying to win any cooking awards. In fact, it specifically ordered that its chocolate bars not be too delicious, so soldiers wouldnt eat them too quickly. These bars were created for survival, not taste. “They were awful,” John Otto, a former army captain in World War II said. “They were big, thick things, and they werent any good. I tried em, but I had to be awful hungry after I tried them once.” As unappealing as the chocolate bars were to some, others liked them. Samuel Hinkle, the chemist who created the chocolate bars, pointed out that the number of bars made were far greater than the army needed. “It soon became obvious that the generous American soldiers were sharing their valued possessions with their foreign friends, whether soldiers of other countries or local citizens.”The bars turned many hungry Europeans into friends of the United States. “People wanted them,” said Otto. “Youd give them to kids. In some places they were very hungry. And they sure helped relax people about American soldiers.” Otto said he never saw a European turn his or her nose up at the chocolate. “It was food,” he said. “At that time, everyone was very hungry. I saw German kids standing outside the U.S. army kitchen. They werent begging, just standing there very politely. When we were done, the kids would eat the food out of the garbage. They were that hungry.”Other Europeans did not see chocolate until well after the war ended. “We didnt see any Americans where I was,” said Elizabeth Radsma, who was 25 years old when the Germans occupied her country, the Netherlands. “Even after the war, we saw only English. Maybe the Americans gave out some chocolate in the big cities, but we were only in a small town. Before the British, we saw only German soldiers. But chocolate? Dont make me laugh! Maybe in my dreams!”A soldier in the field might have responded “Be careful what you wish for” and then gratefully bit down on a chocolate bar, the only food available for miles.1.

To tell how friendly the American soldiers were. B. To describe the hunger in post-war Germany. C. To prove German kids could be very polite. D. To show how much they were eager for chocolates.5.

A. the US soldiers handed out all of them to people in big cities B. the German soldiers kept them all for themselves C. the British soldiers didnt share them with the local people D. the US soldiers never showed up in the small town she lived in【参考答案】15、BCABD文化教育型阅读理解 Millions of people pass through the gates of Disneys entertainment parks in California, Florida and Japan each year. What makes these places an almost universal attraction? What makes foreign kings and queens and other important people want to visit these Disney parks? Well, one reason is the way theyre treated once they get there. The people at Disney go out of their way to serve their “guests”， as they prefer to call them, and to see that they enjoy themselves. All new employees, from vicepresidents to parttime workers, begin their employment by attending Disney University and taking “Traditions 1”. Here, they learn about the companys history, how it is managed and why it is successful. They are shown how each department relates to the whole. All employees are shown how their part is important in making the park a success.After passing “Traditions 1”， the employees go on to more specialized training for their specific jobs. No detail is missed. A simple job like taking tickets requires four eighthour days of training. When one ticket taker was asked why it took so much training for such a simple, ordinary job, he replied, “What happens if someone wants to know where the restrooms are, when the parade starts or what bus to take back to the campgrounds？We need to know the answers or where to get them quickly. Our constant aim is to help our guests enjoy the party.”Even Disneys managers get involved in the daily management of the park. Every year, the managers leave their desks and business suits and put on special service clothes. For a full week, the bosses sell hot dogs or ice cream, take tickets or drive the monorail (单轨列车), and take up any of the 100 jobs that make the entertainment park come alive. The managers agree that this week helps them to see the companys goals more clearly.All these efforts to serve the public well have made Walt Disney Productions famous. Disney is considered by many as the best mass service provider in America or the world. As one longtime business observer once said, “How Disney treats people, communicates with them, and rewards them, is in my view the very reason for his fifty years of successI have watched, very carefully and with great respect and admiration, the theory and practice of selling satisfaction and serving millions of people on a daily basis, successfully. It is what Disney does best.”1.

The main goal of the Disney employees is to _A. learn all parts of the business B. keep their important guests happyC. be able to answer all kinds of questions D. see that their guests enjoy themselves3.
