12.(RAMALLAH,West Bank)-Israel(以色列) freed 26Palestinian(巴勒斯坦) prisoners early Wednesday,the second of four groups to be released as part of an agreement that started the current Israeli-Palestinian peace talks,which had broken down since 2008.In all,104prisoners are to be released in four rounds over the coming months.
In the West Bank and Gaza(加沙),the mood was overexcited as hundreds of Palestinians welcomed the prisoners back home,after many had spent more than 20years behind bars.
Crowds of people rushed toward the 5prisoners released to Gaza,raising them on their shoulders,waving Palestinian flags and dancing to music.Relatives held signs that read"we will never forget our heroes."More than 2,000people welcomed the 21prisoners released to the West Bank,who were greeted at a ceremony by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Ramallah.
Hazem Shubair,thrown into prison in 1994for the death of an Israeli according to the Israeli Prison Service,was over delighted upon his return to Gaza."I am speechless,"he said."Thanks to God.God is greater than the aggressors,"meaning Israel.
Abbas said a final peace agreement with Israel was possible on the release of the prisoners."There will be no final agreement without the release of all the prisoners,"he told the violent crowd.
Israel's Supreme Court (最高法院) earlier refused an appeal that intended to cancel the prisoner release.An organization of bereaved (失去親人的) families behind the appeal has said it fears the prisoners,all in connection to the deaths of Israelis,will return to violence once freed.

分析 本文主要講的是星期三早上以色列釋放了26名巴勒斯坦囚犯,這打破了自2008以來,104名囚犯將在第四輪在未來幾個(gè)月內(nèi)釋放.
解答 61.B.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第一段中的"the second of four groups to be released as part of an agreement that started the current Israeli-Palestinian peace talks"可知,故選B.
62.C.推理判斷題.第一段說104名囚犯被分為四組,星期三釋放的26人是第二批,那么兩批被釋放的應(yīng)該超過26人,故選C.
63.D.正誤判斷題.第二段開頭說,在約旦河西岸和加沙,數(shù)百名巴勒斯坦人歡迎這些囚犯的歸來,因此D項(xiàng)正確.第一段說星期三被釋放的是104名巴勒斯坦囚犯中的第二批,這是巴以和談的一部分,故A、B錯;第三段說被釋放到約旦河西岸的21人受到巴勒斯坦總統(tǒng)Abbas的接見,故C錯.故選D.
64.A.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第五段中的"There will be no final agreement without the release of all the prisoners"可知,只有當(dāng)被關(guān)押的巴勒斯坦人全部被釋放之后才能簽署最后的和平協(xié)議.故選A.
65.B.推理判斷題.最后一段說,以色列最高法院早先拒絕了一項(xiàng)取消釋放這些囚犯的請求,由此可知,部分以色列人不同意釋放巴勒斯坦囚犯.故選B.
