MUMBAI – Indian commandos battled into the early hours of Friday to end a multiple hostage crisis in Mumbai after suspected Islamic militants killed 125 people across the city.
Officials said they had almost totally cleared the luxury Taj Mahal hotel where gunmen had been held up for more than 24 hours.
Indian security forces personnel released hostages from Nariman House in Mumbai.Thirty-nine people were rescued from the five-star Oberoi hotel, where "mopping up(清理火場)" operations were still underway, police said.
Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said the militants had come from "outside the country.”
The Press Trust of India said one Pakistani militant had been arrested, although Pakistan's government fiercely denied any involvement.
Indian media reports said between six and nine foreign nationals were among the dead in Mumbai -- including a Japanese businessman, an Australian, a Briton , a German and an Italian.
At least five gunmen had been shot dead and one captured, police said.Fourteen security personnel were also killed, including the head of Mumbai's anti-terror squad.
To draw maximum international attention, the militants used small groups to attack a total of about a dozen targets in India's financial hub , including the main railway station, a hospital and a restaurant popular with tourists.
An unknown group calling itself the Deccan Mujahedeen claimed responsibility, with one gunman telling an Indian TV channel by phone that the outfit(裝備)was of Indian origin and motivated by the treatment of Indian Muslims.
Up to 327 people were reported wounded.
The main Bombay Stock Exchange was closed until further notice, as were shops, schools and businesses.
Prime Minister Singh said the aim had clearly been to spread panic by choosing high profile(知名度高的)targets and "indiscriminately(隨心所欲地)killing foreigners."
Witnesses said the gunmen had been very particular in their choice of hotel hostages."They said they wanted anyone with British and American passports," said one British guest at the Taj Mahal hotel.
1.The following statements are NOT true except ________.
A. thirty-nine hostages were rescued from the Taj Mahal Hotel
B. fourteen gunmen were killed in Nariman House
C. the target of the attack was obviously on Britons and Americans
D. an American was among the killed foreigners

Chimpanzees,long considered reluctant to share,apparently can display selfless tendencies,revealing one more key way our closest living relatives are like humans,scientists find. These findings could shed light on the evolution of altruism in humans.
Previously,a belief was widely held that human altruism evolved only after humans split from their ape cousins about 6 million years ago.In recent years,however,research has revealed just how much chimpanzees have in common with us.They can hunt with spears,play with dolls and mourn their partners'death.
“Most of the earlier studies had presented the apes with a complex implement that helped them deliver food to themselves or others,often so complicated that the experiments tested tool skills rather than social tendencies,”De Waal told Live Science.“Ours is the first study that uses no such implement at all.”
In addition to using complex food-delivery systems,past experiments often placed the chimpanzees so far apart that they might not have realized how their actions benefited others.In these new,simplified experiments,two apes were housed next to each other with a screen through which they could see each other.Then,one chimpanzee had to choose between two differently colored tokens (幣) from a bin,one of which represented a pro-social (親社會的) option,the other a selfish option.The pro-social option would cause both chimpanzees to receive a piece of banana wrapped in paper.The selfish option only rewarded the ape who made the choice.
In a study with seven adult female chimps placed into various pairs,the scientists found all the apes showed a definite preference for the pro-social option.“For me,the most important finding is that like us,chimpanzees take into account the needs and wishes of others,”researcher Victoria Horner,said.
The chimpanzees behaved especially altruistically toward partners who either patiently waited or gently reminded them that they were there by drawing attention to themselves.They were less likely to reward partners who pressured through making a fuss,begging persistently or spitting water at them.This is opposite to a long-standing view that the chimpanzees only share food under pressure.
1.The word“ altruism” (paragraph 1) is closest in meaning to ______.
A. selfishness
B. selflessness
C. willingness
D. reluctance
2.Recent researches are performed with less complicated implements mainly to ______.
A. show that chimps are only good at using implements
B. see whether chimps are willing to share food with others
C. find out if chimps are likely to reward partners
D. test chimps’ social tendencies instead of tool skills
3.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A. Evolution History of Altruism in Humans
B. Similarities between Chimps and Mankind
C. Chimps Do Show Selfless Behavior
D. Chimps Only Share Food under Pressure

Recently, the Ministry of Education has issued a requirement which students should be given labor education while at the school, which arouses a heated debate.
As for students, opinion are divided. Some students think that it will be great benefit for their health, enabled them to be well developed. On the other hand, some students hold the view that this kind of education will take up our time, which will be spent studying otherwise. But it will have a negative effect on their grades.
It was true that students are given little chance of laboring nowadays, thus lacking the sense of labor. So as far as I am concerned, students definite should receive labor education so that they will value more that labor brings about.
