While I watched with mouth open in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room and took out a wet mop (拖把). She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said, "Very dirty floors." "Yes, I'm glad they've finally decided to clean them," the nurse answered.

I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to write in the big book. After a long time Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand.

| Last week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new home in Tucson, Arizona. He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his now place and meet his friends. My earliest memories of my father are of a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult (成年人) I feared him and felt bitter about him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A's and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as "successful" as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard. On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father's friends for lunch at an outdoor cafe. We walked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son's funny facial expressions. Gone was my father's critical (挑剔的) air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before? The next day, my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment . After so many years, I'm at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, I'm delighted with my new friend. My dad, in his new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was. |

| As the first woman Chancellor (总理) in German's history, Angela Merkel topped Forbes magazine's list of "The World's 100 Most Powerful Women" in 2006, 2007, 2008,and 2009.

| When you arrive at the Shanghai Expo site, the first thing you will see is a huge red building in the ancient Chinese dougong (斗拱) architectural (建筑的) style. Built according to the concept of "Oriental Crown", the China Pavilion (展厅) is the largest national pavilion at the Expo. Themed "Search of the East", the pavilion is divided into three sections. Footprint of the East on the top floor shows the change of Chinese cities; a Journey of Wisdom on the second floor, China's four great inventions-the compass, paper, printing and gunpowder are displayed; and Blossoming (盛开的) City on the ground floor shows the scenery of future cities. Take a lift, and you'll be taken to the 8,500-square-meter top floor. There, in a film by Lu Chuan, you'll see how Chinese cities have changed, especially over the past 30 years. The 10-minute movie is shown in a 600- seat theater. The painting Along the River During Qingming Festival, is considered a national treasure. It describes life in Bianjing, which is today's Kaifeng in Henan province. More than 1,000 years ago, it was the largest city in the world. Multimedia technology makes more than 1,500 characters of the painting walk and move along a 100-meter-long wall. Four families are chosen from Zhejiang province to show their daily lives. Films of the families and furniture from the households are exhibited. At the pavilion, you'll get insight into the daily lives of these families at different periods. The designers believe these will mirror the great changes Zhejiang has seen since China's reform and opening-up policy in the late 1970s. |
