27、 the coast, but the harbour itself was in fairly good shape. After all, it was protected by the arms of a bay that had only one tiny channel to the sea. As we got on board, we noticed two big humps(脊背) in the distance. On approaching them, we saw it was a mother whale with her baby. We couldnt belie

28、ve it there arent any whales along the coast here. The storm must have driven them across the ocean into the bay, in which the still water was so badly polluted that nothing could survive. The little baby whaleactually as big as our boatwas obviously stuck and could not move. The mother dived under

29、the water and came up suddenly, making big whirlpools(漩涡) and waves. ”Shes trying to help her baby, but on the wrong side, ”my father said. At this point, my father moved our boat in a semicircle to the other side and, heading the boat towards the baby whale, pushed it gently. With our several gentl

30、e pushes the big hump turned over and disappeared under water. Then it swam up right beside its mum. They struggled in their desperate attempts to escape but missed the exit and started heading in the wrong direction. We hurried up to the whales and tried to lead them towards the bay channel. Slowly

31、, they let us lead them, some-times rising from the water right beside us to breatheand to give us a trusting look with those huge eyes. Once they hit their first part of clean water flowing straight from the sea, the mum gave us a wave with her tail and off they swam into the distance. In the excit

32、ement it had felt like only a few minutes, but we had been with those wonderful animals for almost an hour and a half.

36、pened last night made me think I may be better off having no life while Im in Baghdad.Friday evening, I was on my way with an American journalist friend to his welcome party. When we got to a checkpoint, we were told to get out of the car to be searched, which is normal procedure. We waited under a

37、tent, as our car was examined on the other side of a wall. We couldnt see what was happening but we figured we would hit the road soon.But the search was taking longer than expected, probably because of a car bomb threat that had been reported earlier. Then we noticed the officers put their helmets(

38、头盔)on, Never a good sign. Our lraqi driver then noticed that our other lraqi driver and guards who were in a second car were standing facing a wall. We had gotten separated from them at the checkpoint.We told two American officers that they were with us. They whispered with each other and then walke

39、d away.A few minutes later, an officer walked toward us and asked us to follow him. He said to me,“If you make any moves, I will take you down hard.”Thats when I knew we were actually thought to be doing something terrible. We were told to sit in a row on the sidewalk, facing the street, I noticed a

40、cross the street were our other driver and guards. They were also in a row, but in a kneeling position with their hands on their heads.I was shocked. The only explanation could be that our guards had been at the shooting range in the morning, so the police dog may have picked something up from that.

41、 I also wondered why our Iraqi fellows on the other side of the street were being treated worse than us when it was our car that was under suspicion(怀疑).After the end of the hourlong suffering, we were allowed to leave. No longer in the mood for the party, we all went home.60The author and his peopl

52、en invented cortain sounds,in one way or another,to express thoughts and feelings,actions and things,so that they could talk with each other. Later they agreed upon certain signs,called letters,which could be put together to show those sounds,and which could be written down. Those sounds,whether spo

53、ken or written in letters,are called words. The power of words,then,lies in their associations-the things they bring up to our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience;and the longer we live,the more certain words bring back to us the happy and sad events of our past;and the more

54、 we read and learn,the more the number of words that mean something to us increases. Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which have powerful effects on our minds and feelings.
