17、通五市高三第三次调研）Carrier PigeonsPeople have used pigeons to carry messages to one another for hundreds of years. In fact, pigeons were a common way to send messages right up through World War .In 1815 an English banker named Nathan Rothschild made his fortune by relying on messages sent to him by carrier

18、pigeons. English troops were fighting Napoleons forces in France, and the English were believed to be losing. A financial panic gripped London. Government bonds were offered at low prices. Few people noticed that Rothschild was snapping_up these bonds when everyone else was desperately trying to sel

19、l them. A few days later, London learned the truth; the Duke of Wellington had defeated Napoleon at the battle of Waterloo. The value of the bonds went up, and Rothschild became extremely wealthy all because his pigeons had brought him news of the victory before anyone else knew of it.Most of the ti

20、me, however, carrier pigeons were used to benefit an entire country, not just one individual. The United States, England, France, Germany, and Italy, in both World War and World War ， used carrier pigeons. Not only were the birds often the fastest, most reliable way to send messages, they could also

21、 be used to reach soldiers far behind enemy lines, where radios and field telephone lines were useless. Since they could easily be released from airplanes or ships, every branch of the armed services used the birds. In World War ， more than 3,000 soldiers and 150 officers were needed to care for and

22、 train the tens of thousands of birds in the US Pigeon Service.Carrying messages could be a dangerous job. Some pigeons performed with such bravery that they became famous and were even awarded medals, such as Englands Dicken Medal of Gallantry. In a few cases, pigeons even became prisoners of war.

23、In 1918 American forces captured a pigeon named The Kaiser, which had been trained to fly special missions for Germany during battle. He was taken to America, where he lived to the age of 32.The most famous pigeon of all may have been Cher Ami. Stationed in France during World War ， he carried twelv

24、e important messages for American forces. On his last mission, though wounded, he carried a message that saved the lives of 194 American soldiers. For his extraordinary service, he was awarded the French “Croix de Guerre”Carrier pigeons are a slightly different breed from the kind of pigeon you see

25、on city streets. They are much thinner and taller, with longer legs. Many people find carrier pigeons ugly because of their big wattle, a knobby buildup of skin on the beak; however, people who raise pigeons often enjoy this odd appearance and consider carriers the best of their breeds.Today, modern

26、 communication methods can carry information from one place to another hundreds of times faster than a pigeon could do it. However, few people would argue with the fact that carrier pigeons especially those that served in the military （军队） have earned their place in history. Stories about brave pige
