40、tactician(战略家) in American history, General Robert E. Lee. The Union (北方联盟)soldiers were led by “Fighting” Joe Hooker.In appearance, personality, and lifestyle, these men were nearly perfect opposites. Lee, an older man in poor health with a gray beard, had a solemn, measured character. Hooker was a
41、 blond, broad-shouldered young man _22_ pride over his appearance was but one aspect of his self-centeredness. Whereas Lee was loyal and principled, Hooker was known for his rollicking enjoyment of both women and whiskey.Despite the fact that the Confederacy _23_ (win) the last four major battles an
42、d the Union soldiers were starving, _24_ (exhaust), and - 11 -demoralized, Hooker proclaimed, “My plans are perfect.

Union soldiers who tried to warn Hooker that Lee was on the offensive _29_ (dismiss) as cowards. Having become convinced that Lee had no choice but _30_ (retreat), Hooker began to ignore
46、reality. When Lees army attacked the Union soldiers at 5:00 p.m., they were eating supper, completely unprepared for battle.
