But along the south coast of England, something unusual was happening: Allied troops made up mainly of British, Canadian and American soldiers were gathering in large numbers. This marked one of the final stages of a top-secret operation that had been months, perhaps years, in the planning. Code-named “Operation Overlord”, it was the largest combined sea, air and land operation in history, the aim being to free north-west Europe from German occupation. After waiting for the perfect combination of weather, moon and tides, the date for the start of Operation Overlord was set for 6 June. Para.1 ( ) The outcome of the operation（行动的结果） ( ) The background information of the operation（行动的背景） ( ) The severe casualties on Omaha Beach（奥马哈海滩上惨重的伤亡） ( ) The everlasting memory of the soldiers’ brave actions（对士兵勇敢行为的永远纪念） ( ) The initial stage of the operation（行动的开始阶段） ( ) The order issued by the Supreme Allied Commander before the operation（盟军总司令在行动前发布的命令） ( ) The 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings（诺曼底登陆70周年纪念） An order issued by Supreme Allied Commander General Eisenhower to the troops（军队） read: “Your task will not be an easy one. Your enemy is well trained, well equipped and battle-hardened… But this is the year 1944… The tide has turned! The free men of the world are marching together to Victory! I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty and skill in battle. We will accept nothing less than full Victory!” Para.2 ( ) The outcome of the operation（行动的结果） ( ) The severe casualties on Omaha Beach（奥马哈海滩上惨重的伤亡） ( ) The everlasting memory of the soldiers’ brave actions（对士兵勇敢行为的永远纪念） ( ) The initial stage of the operation（行动的开始阶段） ( ) The order issued by the Supreme Allied Commander before the operation（盟军总司令在行动前发布的命令） ( ) The 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings（诺曼底登陆70周年纪念） With these words ringing in their ears（这些话在他们耳边回荡）, Allied soldiers（同盟军） prepared（准备） for what would become known as D-Day. At dawn on 6 June, thousands landed by parachute behind enemy lines in northern France. Meanwhile, thousands more were journeying across the English Channel to Normandy, protected by fighter planes in the skies above them. Their objective was clear: to reach the Normandy beaches along about 80 kilometres of French coastline. But even in the depths of war, few could have been prepared for the violence and horror they would experience there. Para.3 ( ) The outcome of the operation（行动的结果） ( ) The severe casualties on Omaha Beach（奥马哈海滩上惨重的伤亡） ( ) The everlasting memory of the soldiers’ brave actions（对士兵勇敢行为的永远纪念） ( ) The initial stage of the operation（行动的开始阶段） ( ) The 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings（诺曼底登陆70周年纪念） The fiercest fighting （最激烈的战斗）was at Omaha Beach. The enemy were hiding, ready to attack the Allied soldiers even before they reached land. Boats were hit and men drowned, while those who did make it to the beach faced heavy machine gunfire. By mid-morning, hundreds lay dead in the water and amongst the tanks on the beach. One soldier recalled how he barely made it with bombs falling all around him: “I was the first one out. The seventh man was the next one to get across the beach without being hit. All the ones in between were hit. Two were killed; three were injured. That’s how lucky you had to be.” Para.4 ( ) The outcome of the operation（行动的结果） ( ) The severe casualties on Omaha Beach（奥马哈海滩上惨重的伤亡） ( ) The everlasting memory of the soldiers’ brave actions（对士兵勇敢行为的永远纪念） ( ) The 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings（诺曼底登陆70周年纪念） s it? But, despite the high cost in human life, the D-Day landings were a success and were seen widely as the beginning of the end of the Second World War. By the end of August 1944, the Allies had reached the River Seine, Paris was liberated and the Germans had been removed from north-west France. The Allied forces then prepared to enter Germany, where they would meet up with the Soviet military moving in from the east. Para.5 ( ) The outcome of the operation（行动的结果） ( ) The everlasting memory of the soldiers’ brave actions（对士兵勇敢行为的永远纪念） ( ) The 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings（诺曼底登陆70周年纪念） Seventy years later, men who had fought on D-Day gathered on both sides of the English Channel, where people were coming together for memorial ceremonies. As part of this solemn and moving occasion, a former soldier read out to the crowd these lines from the poem For the Fallen, by Laurence Binyon: Para.6 They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them. 我们会日渐衰老，但他们永远不会老去。 他们永远不为年龄所难，永远不为岁月所累。 每当夕阳西下，每当清晨来临， 我们都会想起他们。 For the Fallen《谨献给阵亡将士》 —an English poet: Laurence Binyon Read the poem. 19 Survivors of the D-Day landings continue to meet to remember the fellow soldiers and friends they lost that day. Although each year they are fewer in number, their outstanding acts of courage mean that we will always remember them – as well as those who lost their lives on the beaches of northern France.
