Police fired tear gas and arrested more than 5,000passively resisting protestors Friday in an attempt tobreak up the largest antinuclear demonstration everstaged in the United States. More than 135,000 demonstrators confronted police on the construction site of a 1,000-megawatt nuclear power plant scheduled to provide power to most of southern New Hampshire. Organizers of the huge demonstration said, the protest was continuing despite the police actions. More demonstrators were arriving to keep up the pressure on state authorities to cancel the project. The demonstrator had charged that the project was unsafe in the densely populated area, would create thermal pollution in the bay, and had no acceptable means for disposing of its radioactive wasters. The demonstrations would go on until the jails and the courts were so overloaded that the state judicial system would collapse.
Governor Stanforth Thumper insisted that there would be no reconsideration of the power project and no delay in its construction set for completion in three years."This project will begin on time and the people of this state will begin to receive its benefits on schedule. Those who break the law in misguided attempts to sabotage the project will be dealt with according to the law," he said. And police called in reinforcements from all over the state to handle the disturbances.
The protests began before dawn Friday when several thousand demonstrators broke through police lines around the cordoned-off construction site. They carried placards that read "No Nukesis Good Nukes,""Sunpower, Not Nuclear Power," and "Stop Private Profits from Public Peril." Theydefied police order to move from the area. Tear gas canisters fired by police failed to dislodgethe protestors who had come prepared with their own gas masks or facecloths. Finally gas-masked and helmeted police charged into the crowd to drag off the demonstrators one by one. The protestors did not resist police, but refused to walk away under their own power. Those arrested would be charged with unlawful assembly, trespassing, and disturbing the peace.

写作方法与文章大意
这是一则有关反对核电站的群众**的新闻导报，采用对比手法。警方镇压;群众坚决*。第一段就写出了尽管警方释放催泪瓦斯，逮捕了5000多人，*组织者申明*要继续下去，越来越多的*者参与对*加压，想迫使其废除在当地建立核电站的计划。其理由是在人口密集地区建站不安全，在海湾产生热污染，核废料处理无有效方法。
第二段叙述了州长大人坚决维护核电站的立场，不再考虑计划修改问题，三年内要完成核电站建设。届时，本州人民得益。对企图破坏计划实施而违法的人将以法处置。已集结全州警察加强对付这次捣乱。
第三段讲了双方现场交战：星期五破晓，数千*者(高举*牌，上写：没有核电站就是好的核电站;不要核能，要太阳能等)冲过建设基地警察警戒线，警察用催泪瓦斯无效后，开始一个一个地抓逮*者，被捕者将被控以非法集会、侵入和扰乱治安等罪名。
答案详解
1. C *建设核电站计划。不是*核电站。B. 核电站还未建，所以不对。A. 私人利益 和 D. 公共危险，这些都是*牌上之口号不是*的主攻方向。
2. D 双方。 最后一段第四行最后和第五行“*者准备了他们自己的防毒面具或面罩。最后，头戴防毒面具和头盔的警察冲进人群一个一个地抓逮*者。”所以说两方面都有防毒面具。
3. A 公共交通运输。
B. 公共危险。 C. 污染。 D. 废料处理，是三个*的理由。
4. B 被逮捕的*者。第一段最后一行“*要继续下去直到州监牢和州法庭人满为患，从而使州司法体系垮台。”说明*者准备去坐牢，决不服输的决心。而人多到监牢装不下证明州司法的问题。所以这里只能是被抓的*者。
A. 犯人。 C. 罪犯。D.*者。警察不可能抓所有的*者。关在牢里的只能是被抓的*者。
5. A 固执己见，冥顽不化。见第二段他坚持说核电站计划不用再考虑，三年内一定要建成，计划准时开始，本州人民到时候就能获益。对这些违法企图破坏计划的人依法惩处。并且从州内各处调集警察来处理这次“*”。从语言到行动都说明，这位州长固执己见，顽固得很。B. 坚持的。 C. 不能解决的。 D. 可宽恕的。
