6、bly nervous. I fumbled(摸索) in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes, which had escapedtheir search. I found one and because of my shaking hands, I could hardly get it to my lips.

7、(联系)with me. I called out to him “Have you got a light?” He looked at me, shrugged （耸肩）and came over to light my cigarette. As he came close and lit the match, his eyes unconsciously（无意识） locked with mine. At that moment, I smiled. I dont know why I did that. Perhaps it was nervousness, perhaps it w
8、as because, when you get very close, one to another, it is very hard not to smile. In any case, I smiled. In that instant, it was as though a spark jumped across the gap between our two hearts, our two human souls. I know he didnt want to, but my smile leaped through the bars and generated a smile o
9、n his lips, too. He lit my cigarette but stayed near, looking at me directly in the eyes and continuing to smile.I kept smiling at him, now thinking of him as a person and not just a guard. Do you have kids? he asked. “Yes, here, here.” I took out my wallet and nervously fumbled for the pictures of
10、my family. He, too, took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his plans and hopes for them. My eyes were filled with tears. I said that I feared that Id never see my family again, never have the chance to see them grow up. Tears came to his eyes, too. Suddenly, without another word

Paps are different from professional ph
15、otographers or journalists because they never take ordinary photos. The goal for paparazzi is to get pictures that no one else will get and then sell the pictures to the buyer who offers the most money normally a small newspaper, magazine or website. There is no law against paparazzi taking pictures
16、 in public places. However, there are laws that protect certain individuals. For example, child protection laws stop improper pictures of anyone under 16 from being published. There is also no law that stops paparazzi from following celebrities（名人） and taking their pictures either. However, if paps
17、are secretly following them and taking pictures of their faces, they could get into trouble. Most paparazzi hang out on streets and hot spots for celebrities, waiting for the opportunity to take a picture of a star. Many stay on the streets until the early hours of the morning when celebrities（名人） a
18、re leaving nightclubs and looking a little worse for wear. However, some have other ways to make sure they get pictures. Many paps are in contact with “informers” who know the locations of celebrities at any given time. They then pass the information on to paparazzi. An informer could be anyone from
19、 a restaurant waiter to a salesman. Most of the time, paparazzi get a bad reputation for following celebrities.

The underlined phrase hang out probably means _.A. wander about B. keep away C. check out D. leave outCA new report says African governments are ill prepared to handle（处理） the growing number of people over age 65. The population in Afric
24、a as in other parts of the world, is getting older. Currently, there are 36 million people on the continent 65 years and above，which is 3.6 percent of the population, up from 3.3 percent 10 years ago. That could rise to 4.5 percent by 2030 and 10 percent by 2050. The African development Bank is rais
25、ing concerns over the shortage of health insurance and pensions（养老金）. The African Development Bank says, Aging is highly linked with long-term physical and mentaldisability and a number of long-term chronic (慢性的) conditions. Africa is not well prepared to care for its aging population right now. And
26、 it needs to prepare for this fact. said Professor Mthuli Ncube, the African Development Banks chief economist. African nations spend far less on healthcare than developed nations. Not so many countries have well developed medical aid plans for the elderly, whether they are privately provided plans
27、or indeed government plans. If you look at the pension plans, you will find the pension industries are not well developed in some of the countries. Professor Mthuli Ncube said African governments failed to take action on health insurance and pensions because they were busy with economic reforms. Ano
28、ther challenge for Africa is the worsening of informal systems of social protection. That is cash and support from both the extended family and community sources. The African Development Bank recommends governments help carry out health insurance and pension plans. Ncube said African governments did
29、nt have to handle the health insurance burden alone. It is not only a must but also an opportunity for private companies to add their bit in this regard, he said. The report also recommends that African governments consider providing ways of free health services, medications and long-term health car
