I was caught in the war and put to prison．I was sure that 1 was to be killed，I became

terribly nervous．I reached in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes（香烟），which had  1 their search．I found one and because of my   2  hands，I could only get it to my lips．But I had no  3  ．

      I looked   4  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   5   my cigarette．

    As he came close and lit the match，his eyes met with mine．At that moment，I smiled I don't know  6  I did that，Perhaps it was  7  ，perhaps it was because，when you get very close。one to another，it is very hard not to  8  ．In any case，I smiled．It was   9   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   10  in the eyes and continuing to smile．

    I kept smiling at him，now   11  of him as a person and not just a Jailer．And his looking at me seemed to have a new   12  ，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   13   and hopes for them．My eyes were filled with   14  ．I 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，  15   ，he unlocked my cell（牢房）and silently led me out．Out of the prison，quietly and by   16  routes，out of the town．There，at the edge of town，he set me   17  ．And without another word，he turned back toward the town．

    My life was   18   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   19  each other，we wouldn’t be enemies．We couldn’t have  20  or envy or fear．

TOKYO：Elderly people who drink several cups of green tea a day are less likely to suffer from depression（消沉，压抑），probably due to a “feel good” chemical found in this type of tea，Japanese researchers said．

    Several studies have related drinking green tea to reducing psychological problems and Kaijun Niu，of Tohoku University Graduate School，and colleagues found people aged 70 and older who drank four or more cups of green tea daily were 44 percent less likely to experience depression．

    Green tea is widely drunk in many Asian countries，including China and Japan．

    Niu's team studied 1，058 healthy elderly men and women．About 34 percent of the men and 39 percent of the women had signs of depression，according to the study that was published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition．

    A total of 488 participants（参与者）said they drank four or more cups of green tea a day，284 said they downed two to three cups daily and the rest reported having one or fewer cups daily．

    According to the researchers，the apparent effect of drinking more green tea on alleviating depression did not become less after they considered other factors， such as social economic status，sex，diet，history of medical problems and use of antidepressants．

    There was no link between drinking black or oolong tea，or coffee，and lower degree of depression．

    The amino acid theanine，contained in green tea，which is thought to have a calming effect on the brain，may explain the beneficial effect shown in the current study，Niu noted，adding that more study is needed．

1．Which of the following do you think can best replace the underlined word “alleviating” in paragraph 6?

    A．Lowering the degree of                            B．Raising the degree of

    C．Making…more difficult to bear                    D．Causing more suffering from

2．Which of the following do you think can serve as the most suitable title?

A．Feeling depressed? Coffee can cure．          B．Feeling sad? Black tea does work．

C．Feeling upset? Oolong tea will do．              D．Feeling blue? Green tea may help．

3．What’s the writers attitude towards the result of the study?

      A．He is interested in it and totally supportive of it．

      B．He holds the opinion that it is of little value．

      C．He only reports the fact without mentioning his own opinion．

      D．He seriously criticizes the result of the study．

SHANGHAI：China’s economic center will replace London as the world’s second-largest economic center after New York in 10 years，according to a recent survey conducted by 1aw firm Eversheds．

        The survey，which interviewed 600 senior business decision-makers in the cities of London，Mumbai，New York，Shanghai and the United Arab Emirates，showed that London was facing a challenge（挑战）from Shanghai in terms of its economic role in the world．

    Most of them said New York would continue to hold the top position as the most important economic center．

    According to London-based Eversheds，91 percent of senior businesspeople in Shanghai are confident of their economic future over the next 12 months，mainly based on signs of growth in business，while in London only 22 percent are confident，the lowest figure among the five cities．

    The report showed that 87 percent of business leaders across the world said the crisis （危机）has changed the structure（结构）of the world economy，and the established economic centers of the West face a growing challenge from the new economies of the East．

    China, ahead of the US and Europe，has had signs of a recovery from the economic crisis．In March the Chinese government decided to try to turn Shanghai into an

international economic center by the end of 2020．

    “There's little doubt that Shanghai would become a world's important economic center within the next decade if the Chinese economy will become No 1 or No 2 in the world and because of the growing value of the yuan，said Hubert Tse，managing director and head

of international business at law firm Yuan Tat．

      Shanghai’s becoming a world’s economic center is affected by when the yuan can be exchanged freely and whether effective laws would be put in place, Tse said．

1．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

      A．Businessmen in London are least confident of their economic future among the five cities surveyed．

      B．The economic development of the established economic centers of the West has slowed down due to the crisis．

    C．Chinese economy will surely become No 1 in the world by the end of 2020．

    D．China has shown signs of recovery from crisis earlier than the US and Europe．

2．All the following will make Shanghai a world's economic center except         ．

      A．Chinese early economic recovery from crisis．

      B．The growing value and free exchange of the yuan．

      C．Effective laws to be made．

      D．Businessmen's confidence in Shanghai．

3．What does the passage mainly deal with?

      A．People are confident in Chinese economy．

      B．Shanghai will become the second-largest economic center instead of London．

      C．New York remains to be the most important economic center．

      D．The structure of the world economy has been changed completely．

I passed all the other courses that I took at my University，but I could have never passed botany（植物学）．This was because all botany students had to spend several hours a week in a laboratory looking through a microscope（显微镜）at plant cells，and I could never once see a cell through a microscope．This used to make my professor angry．He would wander around the laboratory pleased with the progress all the students were making in drawing the structure（结构）of flower cells，until he came to me．I would Just be standing there． “I can’t see anything，”I would say．He would begin patiently enough, explaining how anybody can see through a microscope，but he would always end up angrily．claiming that I could too see through a microscope but just pretended that I couldn’t． “It takes away from the beauty of flowers anyway” I used to tell him．”We are not concerned with beauty in this course． “he would say．”We are concerned with the structure of flowers．”“Well，”I'd say．”I can’t see anything．” “Try it just once again．”he'd say，and I would put my eye to the microscope and see nothing at all，except now and again something unclear and milky．”You were supposed to see a clear，moving plant cells shaped 1ike clocks．”“I see what looks like a lot of milk．”I would tell him．This，he claimed，was the result of my not having adjusted the microscope properly，so he would readjust it for me，or rather，for himself．And I would look again and see milk．

    I failed to pass botany that year，and had to wait a year and try again，or I couldn’t graduate．The next term the same professor was eager to explain cell一structure again to his classes． “Well，”he said to tile．happily．”we're going to see cells this time，aren't we?” “Yes，sir，”I said．Students to the right of me and to the left of me and in front of me were seeing cells；what’s more，they were quietly drawing pictures of them in their notebooks．Of course．I didn't see anything．

    So the professor and I tried with every adjustment of the microscope known to man．With only once did I see anything but blackness or the familiar milk，and that time I saw， to my pleasure and amazement，something 1ike stars．These I hurriedly drew．The professor，noting my activity，came to me，a smile on his lips and his eyebrows high in hope．He looked at my cell drawing． “What’s that?” he asked．“That’s what I saw，”I said．”You didn’t，you didn’t，you didn’t!” he screamed，losing control of himself immediately，and he bent over and looked into the microscope．He r8ised his head suddenly．”That’s your eye!”．he shouted．”You’ve adjusted the microscope so that it reflects! You've drawn your eye!”
