Code Breakers

She was a typist at Bletchley Park .

This website talked about a woman who was a code breaker.
She typed gobbledygook all day .
Code breakers should be very careful because if a line was missed, they had to start again from the beginning.

「She neither dropped bombs nor led secret missions on foreign soil but she helped save lives nonetheless.」
I like this sentence .
It showed that the code breakers was so important.


The Enigma machine .

This website is really nice .
There are many pictures in it .
Most important of all, each picture has a explication.
We just need to check the pictures under the writing, and it will show you another information of the picture.

That's so cool.
It interests me a lot, and makes me want to learn more about that.

It must be very intersting .

POW

Prisoners of War at Camp Aliceville.

This website has many pictures,
and it talked about POW Camps in Alabama.
The prisoners sometimes organized into teams
and had some activities, such as playing soccer.
I thought that the prisoners might be very poor before I read this writing.
However, the pictures showed their life was not as bad as I thought.
I am so ... surprised about that .

I understood that the prisoners in each camps had different life stytles.

I read the writing , and learned about the Iroquois tribes.

It is harsh to the people to leave their hometown.

Because the British government announced
that the Channel Islands were of no strategic importance and would not be defended,
so the Islands might be attacked.


Everyone in the Channel have to queu to register for evacuation .

How poor ~

↑The Jagdtiger, one of the most formidable German tank destroyers.

This website is very difficult, but the information in it is very complete.
I just look a little the information, and the pictures.

I learned about the operations in history, and the attack route.

I like the pictures in this website, but ...

Many many words I haven't seem,
and I can't understand the meannings of the words.

The pictures is really cool !
Tanks and aircrafts is interesting to me .

________________________________________

filled the sky, strafing the retreating mix of civilians
and soldiers with machine gun and bomb.

I also learned that the history of the blitzkrieg, the blitzkrieg began and ended .

I look the map carefully to understand the attack routes.
In March, 1939, Hitler started to plan to invade Poland.

The map can help us to know the panzer's attack routes.
Those attack route look complex.
You can think about that the blitzkrieg is so terrible ...

Cut away view of an Anderson shelter.

This website talked about the Anderson Shelter.

It's easier than the third website.

I take a look at the pictures there.

I learned these shelters are created by John Anderson,and they are very practical.

It is surely a good building for people under the war.
_______________________________________


An Anderson shelter not buried.

This website talks about Anderson shelters and Morrison Shelters.
There are a lot of pictures in it .
It is the easiest of the three, so I am interested.

I learned the Morrison Shelters are named after the Minister for Home Security, Mr. Herbert Morrison.
It's not created by Mr. Herbert Morrison.
The shelter is made from heavy steel, and it can also be used as a table.

That is so cool ... > ˇ <

The sign refers to a gas-tight security door.

This website is a little difficult for me, so I just look around.
However, I can also learn a little information from this page.

That word means " Gas tract ".
The shelter might be another gas chamber.

I felt a little terrible about that .

A world Divided

。Facism。



↑Benito Mussolini

I read the information about Fascism there.

I learned a fascist government always has one class of citizens that is
considered superior to another based upon race, creed or origin.

I don't like this.

People under the Fascism don't have same treatment.
Everyone should be the same, right ?

Fascism is commonly defined as an open terror-based dictatorship.

I also think that system is not really good .

________________________________________

。Communism。





↑Karl Marx


This website talked a lot about communsim,
so I just read a little .

I learned the early communsim, Marxism...


Communism as a political goal is a form of future social organization.

In the late ninteenth century, Marx's idea influence the Europe.
Later, many communist parties had organized.


Among the parties, the one of China is interesting to me,
because China is in Asia, and near Taiwan.

Mao Zedong established the People's Republic of China,
and fallowed the opinion of Communist development.

In our social study class, talked a little about communism in China,
Now China is still a communist country.

↑Statue to freedom , the famous Victory

This website said ...

" Democracy is in fact the very last thing that politicians, those who finance their political campaigns, their political appointees, and the vast majority of civil servants want to see. "

I think so, too.

I looked the information about Powwow music .

To the powwows , Powwow means
"a secular event featuring group singing and dancing by men,
women, and children."

The music in their cultural celebration of their heritage provided
by drummers and singers .

Powwow songs formwd by key phrases which are repeated.
These phrases may be composed of syllables
which echo the beat of the drum.

There are two kinds of singing styles,
one named Northern Style, singers singing with a higher pitch,
and the other named Southern Style , singers keep a lower key.

There are many beautiful pictures, but ...

I'm afraid of making mistakes in spelling or having the wrong garmmar .
I hope I can do well on this homework .Go go go ! : )


＊ First
http://smoter.com/slaughte.htm


This website is very difficult for me , so I only read a little .

This is a writing about slaughter and honor in the WWI .

I learned the WWI is cruel .
The British kill Germans and shake their morale .

The British soldiers were ordered to press on. The British leaders would sacrifice 325,000 of their soldiers before calling off the senseless attack.
However, attrition was working , the Germans would suffer 200,000 casualties defending their positions .

A lot of survial people without legs , without arms , even without faces .
They saw their friends opened chests, opened stomachs, opened backs and opened skulls .


How cruel ! That is a terrible war . No ! In fact , all the wars is terrible !


＊Second
http://www.adolfhitler.dk/


This is much easier than the first one .
And this website interest me in the things about Hitler .


I learned there are approximately 11 million people were killed because of Hitler's genocidal policy and his Nazi Regime led to the annihilation of more than six million Jews during the Holocaust.


World War Π caused the greatest loss of life and material destruction of any war in history, killing twenty-five million military personnel and thirty million civilians.


I am grieve for people who through WWΠ .


＊Third
http://library.thinkquest.org/19092/hitler.html

This page is about Hitler biography .

I read the writing and had a look at the pictures .

Hitler was born in Austria in 1889 .
He wasn't excellent at school , but who knows he will be a leader of WWΙ and WWΠ .

He hates Jews a lot .
I think that is why he killed so many Jews .

What a legendary figire !

However , I don't like his cruelty .

That is too terrible .
