Sir Nicholas Winton, a British man who saved 669 children from the Nazis, was awarded the highest civilian honour in the Czech Republic on Tuesday.
Winton, now 105, was presented with the Order of the White Lion by the Czech president in a special ceremony at Prague Castle.
Winton, who has often been nicknamed “the British Schindler”, organised the transportation and settlement of 669 children over nine months before the Second World War broke out in September 1939. Most of those he saved were Jewish children living in then-German-occupied Czechoslovakia whose families were later imprisoned or murdered in concentration camps.
Winton gave a speech during the ceremony. He said, “I want to thank you all for this enormous expression of thanks for something which happened to me a long time ago. I am delighted that so many of the children are still about and are here to thank me. England was the only country at that time willing to accept unaccompanied minors. I thank the British people for making room to accept them, and of course the enormous help given by so many of the Czechs who were at that time doing what they could to fight the Germans and to try to get the children out. ”
In the same ceremony, the Order of the White Lion was also presented to his grandson Nicholas Soames in honor of Sir Winston Churchill. They are the only British citizens to receive the award, after Margaret Thatcher and the Queen. Presenting the award, the Czech President, Milos Zeman said, “It is a great pleasure to present this award to two great personalities of the UK. I am only ashamed it has been awarded so late—but better late than never. ”
【文章大意】尼古拉斯·温顿爵士是一位英国人, 他曾从纳粹手里救出669名儿童。他在本周二被捷克共和国授予了最高的平民荣誉。
1. Why has Winton been called “the British Schindler”?
A. Because he rescued 669 children before World WarⅡ.
B. Because he joined the army in World WarⅡ.
C. Because he made great contributions after World WarⅡ.
D. Because he saved 669 Jewish children before World WarⅡ.
【解析】选A。细节理解题。根据第三段的Winton, who has often been nicknamed “the British Schindler”, organised the transportation and settlement of 669 children. . . 可知, 温顿常被人称为“英国辛德勒”, 是因为在1939年9月爆发的第二次世界大战之前的9个多月里, 他为669名儿童安排了运输工具和栖息之所。
2. According to Winton, we can infer ________ .
A. all the children once he saved attended the ceremony
B. the Czechs also played an important role in helping the children
C. England was the only country to fight the Germans at that time
D. England was the only country to help the Czechs
【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据第四段Winton说的话可知, 有很多他当时救出的孩子参加了典礼。英国在那时候是唯一愿意接受孤儿的国家。捷克人民那时也正不断努力抵抗德国人, 试着救出孩子们。由此可知选B。
3. The underlined word “minors” in Paragraph 4 refers to ________ .
A. Englishmen
B. Germans
C. children
D. Winton’s family members
【解析】选C。词义猜测题。minors所在的句子的意思是: 英国在那时候是唯一愿意接受孤儿的国家。根据句意可知minors指温顿救出的那些孩子。minor可以指18岁以下的孩子。故选C。
4. Why was Nicholas Soames also presented with the same award as Winton?
A. Because he helped Winton save the children.
B. Because his grandfather made great contribution in World WarⅡ.
C. Because he is connected with Margaret Thatcher. D. Because he fought bravely in World WarⅡ.
【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据最后一段的In the same ceremony, the Order of the White Lion was also presented to his grandson Nicholas Soames in honor of Sir Winston Churchill. 可知, 在这个典礼上, 为了纪念温斯顿·丘吉尔, 还将白狮勋章授予了丘吉尔并由他的孙子尼古拉斯·索米斯代领。众所周知, 丘吉尔在第二次世界大战中带领英国人抗击德国, 做出了巨大贡献。故选B。
5. The passage mainly wants to tell us ________ .
A. Winton was awarded the Order of the White Lion
B. Winton saved 669 children
C. what the Order of the White Lion is
D. Winton felt thankful at the ceremony
【解析】选A。推理判断题。这篇文章主要想告诉我们105岁高龄的温顿被捷克总统颁发了最高荣誉奖章——白狮勋章。故选A。

Preface(引言)to Revised(修订)Edition
How to Win Friends and Influence People was first published in 1937 in an edition of only five thousand copies. Neither Dale Carnegie nor the publishers, Simon and Schuster, expected more than this modest sale. To their amazement, the book became an overnight sensation, and edition after edition rolled off the presses to keep up with the increasing public demand. How to Win Friends and Influence People took its place in publishing history as one of the all-time international best-sellers. It touched a nerve and filled a human need that was more than a faddish(流行一时的)phenomenon of post-depression days, as evidenced by its continued and uninterrupted sales into the eighties, almost half a century later.
Dale Carnegie used to say that it was easier to make a million dollars than to put a phrase into the English language. How to Win Friends and Influence People became such a phrase, quoted, paraphrased(解释), used in different contexts from political cartoons to novels. The book itself was translated into almost every known written language. Each generation has discovered it anew and has found it relevant.
This brings us to the logical questions: Why revise a book that has proven and continues to prove its universal appeal? Why tamper with(篡改)success?
To answer that, we must realize that Dale Carnegie himself was a tireless reviser of his own work during his lifetime. How to Win Friends and Influence People was written to be used as a textbook for his courses in Effective Speaking and Human Relations and is still used in those courses today. Until his death in 1955, he constantly improved and revised the course itself to make it applicable to the needs of an ever-growing public. No one was more sensitive to the changing currents of present-day life than Dale Carnegie. He constantly improved his methods of teaching; he updated his book on Effective Speaking several times. Had he lived longer, he would have revised How to Win Friends and Influence People to better reflect the changes that have taken place in the world since the thirties.
Many of the names of famous people in the book, well-known at the time of its first publication, are no longer recognized by many of today’s readers. Certain examples and phrases seem as strange and dated in our social climate as those in a Victorian novel. The important message and overall impact of the book is weakened to that extent.
Our purpose, therefore, in this revision is to clarify and strengthen the book for a modern reader without tampering with the content. We have not “changed” How to Win Friends and Influence People except to make a few removals and add a few more contemporary examples. The Carnegie style is undamaged—even the thirties slang is still there. Dale Carnegie wrote as he spoke, in a cheerful, colloquial, conversational manner.
So his voice speaks as forcefully as ever, in the book and in his work. Thousands of people all over the world are being trained in Carnegie courses in increasing numbers each year. And other thousands are reading and studying How to Win Friends and Influence People and being inspired to use its principles to better their lives. To all of them, we offer this revision in the spirit of the polishing of a finely made tool.
