never felt that they were a strange family, ive always hated the way they get “too close” to me, my house, my garden, and even my garbage cans.one day, my neighbors were mowing their lawn (草坪). my garbage cans were near their lawn. for some strange reason, i found the wife looking through my garbage cans. i felt angry but since they were from a different culture, i thought that maybe it was “normal” from their ideas.that afternoon, the couple knocked on my front door. when i opened, they gave me a plastic bag. inside were my old daily bills, credit cards and bank statements, and an old birthday card that my old uncle sent. they said that they were returning them to me because these documents contained very private information that may be used by others.ive heard it before. i asked them how those documents can be used by others and they started telling me their very own experience, which forced them to leave their home and move next door to us. the wife told me that she never destroyed the bills. they also had a “nosy neighbor” who looked through their garbage cans which they actually thought was pretty strange. little did they know that this “nosy neighbor” was collecting their personal information from their rubbish. then all their money was taken out from the bank by their neighbor. it was a very painful experience for all of them and they wanted to leave them all behind so they left. i was very thankful. they were not nosy neighbors. they simply didnt want us to experience the same thing that they did.1.what made the author angry?a. his neighbors wife was

philippines, mexico and south africa.pasta has become popular, for one thing, because it is cheap and easy to prepare. just cook noodles or other forms of pasta, make a sauce to go with it and youre

since the beginning of mankind. whole empires (帝国) have been built on gold. the spanish conquered all of central and south america in order to bring gold back to their home country. inca and maya civilizations worshipped gold and thought it came from the sun. explorers traveled for thousands of miles in search of the precious metal.gold is, once again, in demand. people want to have gold as a kind of security in unstable times. they invest in (投资于) gold instead of saving their money in banks. many people argue that since 9/11 the world has become a more dangerous place. when in 2008 the financial markets collapsed (崩溃), the major currencies of the world became weaker. investors were no longer sure how safe their money was. they bought more and more gold which made the price of the yellow metal rise.one of the reasons why gold is so valuable is that it practically cannot be destroyed. it always stays the same and never changes. it can be recycled and afterwards be used for many things. in iraq poor people collect gold dust and bring it back to jewellery shops to be recycled. recycling gold is also a big business in japan, where gold is collected from old mobile phones and other industrial waste.the demand for the metal and increased production leads to a number of environmental problems. a single ounce of gold produces over 30 tons of waste, more than any other metal on earth. poisonous substances can leak into rivers and contaminate (污染) the water. in peru and brazil wide areas of the amazon rainforest are cut down by the illegal mining of gold.13.spain made war
