  They cannot vote which nations should have a seat on theUnited Nations Security Council(安理会),but ordinary people have shown their feelings.

  By Tuesday afternoon,over 11.5 million people in andoutsidede China had signed an online petition(请愿)saying Ja-pan should not succeed in its bid(申词)for an everlasting seat on the Security Council.

  The loud call is due to the historical facts in World WarⅡ.Some Japanese politicians said their country is ready to play a more active role in world affairs,and their country's contribution can no longer be limited to economic fields.

  The petition by 11.5 million people tells Japan that mon-ey alone cannot buy their hearts.

  A new history textbook that a right wing Japanese organization has handed out for official agreement goes so far as to paint Japan as a“victim”in World warⅡ.Its authors even say that China started all the wars between the two countries.Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi turned down an in-vitation to a grand party in Moscow on May 9 to celebrate the 60.th anniversary of the end of War World Ⅱ.Koizumi's absence will do nothing but encourage more probes(追究)into his country's historical baggage.

  Japanese politicians continue to visit the Yasukuni Shrine(靖国神社).Wartime leader and war criminal Hideki Tojo,as well as five other hanged war crimials,are buried at the shrine.They talk about peace during the visits and ask theirAsian neighbors to understand Japanese culture,which re-quires them to visit Shinto shrines to mark seasonal celebrations.But they don't see the pains that the Japanese invasion(侵略)brought on other Asian countries.How can a nationsleep with such a history on its conscience(良心)?The a-mount of money Japan gives the United Nations does not nec-essarily give the country the role in international affairs.Neither will an everlasting seat on the Security Council free Japanfrom its historical baggage.

   “BANG”the door caused a reverberation.“Never set foot in this house again!”shouted father.With tears weiling(涌出)up in my eyes,I rushed out of the hofase and ran along the street.

    A young father who held a child in his arlzis walked past rile.I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space:happy and harmonious(和谐)

    But now I don’t know whether it is because I have grown up or because Dad is getting old.We are just like two people coming from two different worlds.It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.

    1 wandered the street,without a destination in my n'nnd.My heart was frozen oil this hot summer night.As I walked on there were fewer and fewer people m the streets,until I had only streets to keep me company When I finally reached the high rise apartment block in which I livegt,I saw that the light was still on.

     I thought to myself,“Is father waiting for rile.or is he still angry with me?”

    In fact,it was nothing.Perhaps,Dad was throwing some of his old stamps.Perhaps he thought they were useless.I never had th,e courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.

    Dad was always 1ike this.Maybe he didn’t know bow to express himself.After shouting at me,he never showed any mercy or regret After an argument he will creep(蹑手蹑脚)up in my sleep and then tuck rile underneath the covers

    This was how he always was.Fie has been a leader for So long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.

    The fight was still oil With the key in hand,1 was as nervous as 1 had ever been.At last,I decided to open the door.As soon as I opened the door tears ran down my cheeks.I suddenly realized that the iron door that l had imagined between us did not exist at all Love-it is second to none.
