填空题 Translation from English into Chinese．(北京航空航天大学2010研，考试科目：基础英语)London responded to terrorist attack on July 7th in true Blitz style: rescuers were heroic, and ordinary citizens showed compassion and fortitude. Or so the politically correct version goes. A report this week from the London Assembly takes a sterner line. In fact, radios failed to work, medical supplies were lacking, some ambulances arrived inexplicably late and traumatized people were left to wander off.This is the third official report into the bombs on tube and bus that killed 56 people last year and injured hundreds more. In May the Home Office offered a "narrative" of events but cast blame only on the terrorists. A parliamentary investigation concluded that the intelligence services, stretched thin, had done their best. The London Assembly"s take on the matter will not satisfy those who want an independent public inquiry. But it has, at least, got beneath the gloss.The response to the July 7th bombings was chaotic, and in ways that ought to have been preventable. The emergency services had no coherent plan in place to care for those who survived, the report suggests. But most crippling were the communication failures.Police, ambulance workers and firefighters were unable to talk to each other underground: only the radios of the transport police worked in the tunnels. The emergency services had to reply on runners to pass information to and from disaster areas. Yet a report on a big fire at King"s Cross tube station had drawn attention to precisely this problem in 1988.Communications above ground were not much better. Rescue workers competed with bewildered bystanders for access to overloaded mobile-phone networks. The City of London Police, for its part, asked one wireless operator to favor certain rescue workers by limiting service for ordinary users. Earlier, a body headed by the Metropolitan Police had decided this was unnecessary.Richard Barnes, who chaired the assembly"s July 7th review committee, says the report is not meant to disparage the work of the rescuers but rather to fix the problems they encountered. Almost a year later, the situation has barely improved: a new digital radio network for London"s underground, for example, is running behind schedule. The assembly plans new hearings in November to hold various feet to the fire.
