I had a friend who visited me from out of town and I wanted to show him the CN Tower. It was one of the tallest structures on the earth. So I thought it would offer a(n)　 36　 sight.

We were standing in line for 45minutes to enjoy the 　 37　 up to the watch point. When we got there, we went around the 　38　 of the tower and saw the hard wire fence 39　　 to the structure serving as a barrier. We went back inside to look for the glass floor that provided a direct view 　40　 . As soon as both of us 41　 , we stopped before walking onto it. We found that our legs began to　 42　 . I stopped for a minute considering the step, taking several seconds to 　43　 the edge before moving.

And then I had a thought in my mind：“It is far 　44　 compared to any other floor in this building. There is no real danger to me — it’s 　 45　 an illusion. Look at all the people standing on it, and think about those who have stood on it before.”I began to 46　 that step onto the glass floor. I didn’t look down — 47　 not for a few minutes.

I walked on the 　 48　 and looked around and thought about how　 49　 the experience was. I even found myself jumping up and down. There was no 50　 , and it was certainly an illusion.

I considered how many things in our lives we 51　 and exactly how many of them are actually illusions. I thought about all the things we 　52　 ourselves from doing because we have　 53　 ourselves into thinking there’s risk. I thought about all the things that I still have yet to do that appeared 54　 . I was glad to discover that although fear isn’t a stranger to me, my desire to live a life without 　 55　 has a much stronger pull.

You can use your Business Tele-card (电话卡) International at any card phone in the United Kingdom. Here is some information about making international phone calls.

You can now phone almost any country in the world, although in some cases you can only call big cities. When you can’t make direct dialing calls, you can ask the international operator to help you. This is more expensive and takes more time, but it may be helpful if you want to speak to a particular person and no one else in this case you should ask for a “person-to-person” call. Even more expensive is a reverse (反向的) charge call where the person who receives the call pays.

If the international line is busy, you can reserve (回机) a call, explain the number you want and the operator will call you back when the line is free.

You can save money by calling outside office hours, for example, early in the morning, late at night, and on Sundays.

Remember that the time may be different in the country you are calling. International time is based on GMT(Greenwich Mean Time).London is on GMT and Moscow, for example, is 3 hours ahead.

There is one problem: change to DST(Daylight Saving Time)for the summer. In the UK, clocks are put forward one hour in the spring and put back in the autumn, and so London is one hour ahead of GMT in the summer.

1.What is the most expensive type of call?

C.Reverse charge call.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  D.Calling outside office hours.

A. Ask the operator to call you back later.

B.Make a “person-to-person” call.

C.Call back outside office hours.

D.Wait and call again when the line is free.

3.When is it cheaper to make an international call?

A.10 a.m.　　　　　　　　　　　　    B.5 a.m.　　　　　　　　　　   C.11 a.m.　　　　　　　　　　 D.8 a.m.

4.How many hours is Moscow ahead of London during the summer?
