On February 3rd, 1949, New York Harbor was an exciting place. Many people were there to greet a ship from France. On the ship were 49 French railroad boxcars（毕竟西湖六月火车车厢 ） 1 gifts from the people of France to the people of America. The boxcars were from the famous Merci Train (Merci: a French word meaning" thank you").
After World War Ⅱ, a lot of factories, roads and farms in France had been 2 . Many French people had no jobs or money and had little to wear and little to eat. In the winter of 1947, a train was nt across the United States, stopping in cities and towns 3 . At every stop, people gave whatever they could. Factories gave clothing and medicine. Farmers gave food. Families gave money. Even school children gave away their 4 money. All the things were then taken to France by ship.
By 1949, the French had begun to recover（恢复 ）from the war. The Merci Train was th
eir way of 5 " thank you" to America. French people had filled the boxcars with gifts. Most of them were personal, like hand-made toys, children's drawings, or postcards. But the boxcars 6 were perhaps the most meaningful（有意义的 ）of the gifts. On each car, the French people had painted the pictures of all their 40 provinces, with an American eagle on the front. The boxcars were taken to each state of America, where they were 7 greeted.
Now many of the states still keep their boxcars. Gifts nt by the French people can still be en in some 8 . The Merci Train came out of the war, but it now reminds the world that countries can also work together in peace.

Geoffrey Payne talks for the first time about the night his wife was killed. The judge thought it was he who killed his wife. Now he wrote to a magazine from the prison about
what happened on the night of 13 October 1999.
I had to stay late at the hospital that night to do an operation. I finally left at about 11 p .m .. I drove home slowly becau the weather was terrible—the wind was blowing and it was raining heavily. I was turning into our road when a man suddenly ran in front of my car. I almost hit him but I stopped just in time. I was frightened and the man looked frightened too. I got out of the car but he ran away before I could ask if he was all right. It was very strange.
When I got home, the lights were on but it was very quiet. I called to my wife but there was no answer. Then I remembered that she was out at a concert.
I was still very upt about what happened on the road, so I made mylf a drink. Then I went upstairs to have a bath. I saw that the window in the bedroom was open. This was strange becau my wife always locked the doors and windows before she went out. She was afraid of burglars（夜盗者 ）. When I went to clo it, I found Ellen. She was lying on the floor. There was blood everywhere. I rushed over and felt for her pul（脉搏 ）bu
t she was dead. I sat on the floor beside her body and was too frightened to do anything.
The next thing I knew was that the sky was getting light. I can't remember a thing about that night. In the morning I phoned the police. They arrived about half an hour after I phoned them. But it emed like hours. During that time I tried hard to remember anything I could about the night before. I couldn't stop thinking about the man in the road. What was he doing at that time of night in our quiet neighbourhood? Why did he look so frightened? Why did he run away?
