I was caught in the war and put to prison.I was sure that I was to be killed,I became  terribly nervous.I reached in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes(香烟),which had   36__ their search.I found one and because of my  37  hands,I could only get it to my lips.But I had no  38 .
I looked   39  the bars(铁栏)at my jailer(狱警).He did not make eye contact with me.I called out to him,“Have you got a light?” He looked at me,and came over to  40  my cigarette.
As he came close and lit the match,his eyes met with mine.At that moment,I smiled I don't know  41  I did that,Perhaps it was  42 ,perhaps it was because,when you get very close,one to another,it is very hard not to  43 .In any case,I smiled.It was   44   a spark(火花)jumped across the distance between our two hearts.I know he didn't want to,but my smile jumped through the bars and caused a smile on his lips.He lit my cigarette but stayed near,looking at me  45_ in the eyes and continuing to smile.
I kept smiling at him,now   46  of him as a person and not just a jailer.And his looking at me seemed to have a new   47 ,too.“Do you have kids?” he asked.
“Yes,here,here.”I took out my wallet and nervously searched for the pictures of my family.He, too,took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his  48  and hopes for them.My eyes were filled with   49 .w*w^w.k&s#5@u.c~o*mI said that I feared that I'd never see my family again,never have the chance to see them grow up.Tears came to his eyes,too.
Suddenly,  50  ,he unlocked my cell(牢房)and silently led me out.Out of the prison,quietly and by   51  routes,out of the town.There,at the edge of town,he set me   52 .And without another word,he turned back toward the town.
My life was  53  by a smile.
Yes, the smile—the unaffected,unplanned,natural connection between people.I really believe that if that part of you and that part of me could   54  each other,we wouldn’t be enemies.We couldn’t have  55 or envy or fear.

Grandma Moses is among the most famous twentieth-century painters of the United States, yet she did not start painting until she was in her late seventies. As she once said to herself: " I would never sit back in a rocking chair, waiting for someone to help me." No one could have had a more productive old age.

She was born Anna Mary Robertson on a farm in New York State, one of five boys and five girls. At twelve she left home and was in domestic service until, at twenty--seven, she married Thomas Moses, the hired hand of one of her employers. They farmed most of their lives, first in Virginia and then in New York State, at Eagle Bridge. She had ten children, of whom five survived; her husband died in 1927.

Grandma Moses painted a little as a child and made embroidery (刺绣) pictures as a hobby, but only changed to oils in old age because her hands had become too stiff to sew and she wanted to keep busy and pass the time. Her pictures were first sold at the local drugstore and at a market and were soon noticed by a businessman who bought everything she painted. Three of the pictures exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art, and in 1940 she had her first exhibition in New York. Between the 1930's and her death, she produced some 2,000 pictures: detailed and lively portrayals of the country life she had known for so long, with a wonderful sense of color and form. "I think really hard till I think of something really pretty, and then I paint it" she said.

         The human body is a living machine, and, like all machines, it needs "fuel" (燃料) to supply it with energy.This is provided by the food we eat.But how much do we need to stay healthy?

         The energy value of food is usually measured in calories.A calorie is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1℃.The number of calories people need per day is different.Also, the number of calories you use at any one moment normally depends on the activity you are in.For example, you need more calories for standing than for sitting, more for running than for walking, and so on.

         The energy in food is in the form of three kinds of chemical materials-carbohydrate(碳水化合物), protein(蛋白质)and fat.Carbohydrate provides 3.8 Cal/gm, protein 4.0 Cal/gm, and fat 8.8 Cal/gm.Each food contains different amount of these materials, as the round pictures show.
