She had a good voice and enjoyed singing, except that some of her high tones sounded like a gate that had forgotten to oil. Mrs. Janes knew her weakness well, and took every chance she could find to practise these high tones. As she lived in a small house, where she could not practise without disturbing the rest of the family, she usually went for long walks along the country roads whenever she had time and practised her high tones there. Whenever she heard a car or a person coming along the road, she stopped and waited until she could no longer be heard before she started practicing again, because she was a shy person.One afternoon, a fast, opened car came up behind her so silently and so fast that she didnt hear it until it was only a few yards from her. She was singing some of her highest and most difficult tones at that time and as the car passed, she saw an anxious expression came over the drivers face. He stopped his car suddenly, jumped out and began to examine all his tyres(轮胎) carefully.Mrs. Janes didnt dare to tell him what the noise he had heard really was, so he got back into the car and drove off.56.

Thankfully, we can get all these anywhere in India now.Still, her answer surprised me: “Green tea.”As long as I can remember, she didnt even drink Indian tea.I dutifully bought a big packet of Longjing and headed home to hear the story. My mother and her brother, both regular newspaper readers, believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder drug for all illnesses.At the turn of the century, China was not really familiar to the average(普通的) Indian. It was a strange country.How things change! And how soon!Now every town of any size seems to have a “China Market”. And everyone is talking about China.The government of India has planned to send a team to China to see how things are done. A minister once said that India must open the doors for more foreign investment(投资) and such a step would “work wonders(创造奇迹) as it did for China”.But its a two-way street. I just heard about a thousand Shenzhen office workers who have gone to Bangalore to train in software. Meanwhile, all the Indian IT majors are setting up a strong presence in China.No wonder that trade, which was only in the millions just ten years ago, is expected to hit about US $15 billion for last year and US $20 billion by 2020, a goal set by both governments.No wonder, my colleague wrote some weeks ago about this being the Sino-Indian(中印的) century as the two countries started on January1 the Sino-Indian Friendship Year.But what is still a wonder to me is my mother drinking Chinese tea.60. Why did the mother ask for Chinese green tea?A. She was tired of Indian teaB. She had a son working in ChinaC. She believed it had a curing effectD. She was fond of Chinese products61.

Car free areas of Times Square, parks, beaches and boardwalks will now all be ash free. Smokers will not be allowed to light up when hanging out along sidewalks across the five districts, in all parts of Central Park or along the famous Coney Island boardwalk.“The science is clear: Long-time exposure to second-hand smoke-whether youre indoors or out-hurts your health. Today, were doing something about it.” Mayor Bloomberg said in announcing the widespread ban.Violators(违反者) of the new law could face a fine for as much as $250, but City officials say they expect New Yorkers and tourists to observe(遵守) the new law.Parks and Recreation Commissioner Adrian Benepe said, “By introducing this law, we welcome the chance to improve the beauty and health of the citys public outdoor spaces. Tens of millions of visitors - New Yorkers and tourists alike- enjoy our beaches and parks year round. We hope this new law makes it even safer and more pleasant for our children and adults to play sports and for visitors of all interests to enjoy healthier and cleaner parks and beaches. ” The ban also extends to 29,000 acres(英亩) of parkland in the city and 14 miles of public beaches. Smoking was already banned in some parks facilities including playgrounds, but not in most open recreational (娱乐的)areas. Several other cities across the U.S. have similar bans, including Los Angeles which saw its law change in 2020.Councilwoman Gale Brewer who introduced the law said, “New York is the national leader in creating healthy cities, and encouraging a healthy lifestyle.”64.
