23、ly Sunday and stole 11 paintings, including major works by Rembrandt, Dagas, Manet, and Vermerr, FBI(美国联邦调查局)and the museum officials said.The first judgement placed value of at least $100 million on the works stolen from the Isabella Teward Gardener Museum, said Boston police spokesman Jim Tordan.T
24、he judgement was a loose one because the paintings have not been sold in nearly a century, authorities said.But art experts said such well-known works could not be sold in nearly a century, authorities said.“It was not discovered until the cleaning people did some cleaning at 3 a.m.” said Paul Cavan
25、gah, special FBI agent in Boston.“This is one of those thefts(盗窃)where people actually spent some time researching and took specific things,” he said.He said the investigation(调查) would not be limited to the U.S.William Bobinson of Harvard Universitys Foggel Museum, called the objects stolen “major

For some countries it is an important happening to celebrate each year, while for others it is a catastrophe(灾难) or even a wonder. There are coun
29、tries between these two extremes that normally expect snow some time over the winter months, but never receive snow regularly or in the same quantities every year. Britain is one such country, for which the arrival of snow quite simply creates problems. Within hours of the first snowfall, however li
30、ght, roads are blocked, trains and buses stop in the middle of traffic. Normal communications are affected as well, telephone calls become difficult and the post immediately takes more time than usual. Almost within hours, there are also certain shortages-bread, vegetables and other things not becau
31、se all these things can no longer be produced or sent to shops, but mainly because people are frightened, and go out to store up these commodities,” just for fear that something bad should happen.Why then does snow have this effect? After all, the Swiss, Australians and Canadians dont have such prob
32、lems. It is simply because there is not enough planning and preparation. We need money to buy equipment to deal with snow and ice. To keep the roads clear, for example, requires snow ploughs and machines to spread salt. The reason why a country like Britain does not buy snow ploughs is that they are
33、 only used for a few days in any one year, and the money could be more useful in other things such as hospitals, education or helping the old.51.

63、tor, Recently I made a survey about the use of the electronic dictionary. My classmates think that the electronic dictionary is useful, convenient and it can help to save time looking up words. The parents also think the electronic dictionary is easy to carry and most families can afford it. But my English teacher doesnt think we should use it, because she /he thinks its explanations for the words are too simple. I suppose the electronic dictionary will make us lazy and we shouldnt use it.Yours sincerely, Li Ping11 / 11
