　　38

　　will say to the caller, “I’m

　　39 , I’m not in at the moment. Please leave your name and number and I will call you back as

　　A

　　Chocolate soap is supposed to be good for the skin. But it’s not so good for the tongue. Unfortunately for the US soldiers of World War II, the chocolate bars the army gave them tasted like they were intended for use in the bath.

　　In the army’s defense, it wasn’t trying to win any cooking awards. In fact, it specifically ordered that its chocolate bars not be too delicious, so soldiers wouldn’t eat them too quickly. These bars were created for survival, not taste. “They were awful,” John Otto, a former army captain in World WarⅡ said. “They were big, thick things, and they weren’t any good. I tried them, but I had to be awful hungry after I tried them once.”

　　As unappealing as the chocolate bars were to some, others liked them. Samuel Hinkle, the chemist who created the chocolate bars, pointed out that the number of bars made were far greater than the army needed. “It soon became obvious that the generous American soldiers were sharing their valued possessions with their foreign friends, whether soldiers of other countries or local citizens.”

　　The bars turned many hungry Europeans into friends of the United States. “People wanted them,” said Otto, “You’d give them to kids. In some places they were very hungry. And they sure helped relax people about American soldiers.”

　　Otto said he never saw a European turn his or her nose up at the chocolate. “It was food,” he said, “At that time, everyone was very hungry. I saw German kids standing outside the U.S. army kitchen. They weren’t begging, just standing there very politely. When we were done, the kids would eat the food out of the garbage. They were that hungry.”

　　Other Europeans did not see chocolate until well after the war ended. “We didn’t see any Americans where I was,” said Elizabeth Radsma, who was 25 years old when the Germans occupied her country, the Netherlands. “Even after the war, we saw only English. Maybe the Americans gave out some chocolate in the big cities, but we were only in a small town. Before the British, we saw only German soldiers. But chocolate? Don’t make me laugh! Maybe in my dreams!”

　　A soldier in the field might have responded “Be careful what you wish for” — and then gratefully bit on a chocolate bar, the only food available for miles.

　　41. What was the American soldiers’ attitude towards the chocolate bars?

　　A. They were delicious.??????????????????????????????? ?? ?

　　B. They tasted awful.

　　C. They were necessary for survival.?????????????????

　　D. Too many of them were produced.

　　42. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

　　A. The US soldiers used the chocolate bars as bath soap.

　　B. The US soldiers did not have enough food during World WarⅡ.

　　C. The US army produced more chocolate bars than necessary for its soldiers.

　　D. European people regretted eating chocolate bars from the US soldiers.

　　43. The underlined expression “turn his or her nose up at” probably means ____.

　　A. reject???????? B. demand?????

　　C. receive????????? D. smell

　　44. Why does the author mention the German kids’ story?

　　A. To tell how friendly the American soldiers were.

　　B. To describe the hunger in Germany during the war.

　　C. To prove German kids could be very polite.

　　D. To show how much they were eager for chocolate.

　　45. Elizabeth Radsma never saw chocolate during the war because ____.

　　A. the US soldiers handed out all chocolate to people in big cities

　　B. the German soldiers kept them all for themselves

　　C. the British soldiers didn’t share it with the local people

　　D. the US soldiers never showed up in the small town she lived in

　　Real-life Friends

　　Most people know the saying: A man's best friend is his dog; and that Diamonds are a girl’s best friend. However, dogs can’t offer advice or make you a cup of tea when you need one; and precious stones are cold comfort when you need a hug, and a shoulder to cry on.

　　What are Friends?

　　There are many ways to describe a friend. Friends are the family you can choose for yourself. Friends are a much better medication（醫療）than medication is, and people who spend time with friends are happier with their lives as they are less lonely.

　　A good friend will put you to bed when you’re lost consciousness. Ensure you’re not laid on your back, and remember to remove your shoes. You should be able to tell a true friend anything without being judged by them.

　　How do Friendships Begin?

　　This is an easy question. Find someone else who has similar interests with you. You now have another person to talk to about your shared interest but remember they like to talk too, so be prepared to shut up and listen once in a while. Hopefully they will have other friends and will introduce you to them, thereby expanding your circle.

　　Friendships which begin due to location, for example, next-door neighbors or school classmates, rarely survive transitions such as moving to other neighborhoods, schools, colleges, jobs, immigration, and so forth. Attend a school reunion and you’ll wonder what on earth you ever had in common with these people other than your age, although it is possible to have a friendship with someone you met at school. Mutually maintain it, and eventually become godparent or “uncle” to each others’ children.

　　How Friendships are Maintained

　　To have a friend you must also be a friend and be prepared to be there for them should they need you. Failure in this respect would label you a fair-weather friend and you would most probably be abandoned.

　　Boundaries

　　Like every other relationship you have in your life, there are boundaries you shouldn’t cross with your friends. One of those is money: Don’t lend to your friend and don’t ask for a loan yourself.

　　Friends are unpaid counselors（顧問）,but phoning them at 2 am because you’re awake and would like a chat is not a good idea. Neither is phoning them at 10 am if you know they’re a shift-worker. Friends are people who need some space and quiet time. Generally, it all boils down to mutual respect and understanding.

　　It’s not a good plan to interrupt your friend while they’re on a date/on holiday/attending an orchestral recital/at a funeral.
