But Jenny just laughed and told me she was glad to see that I’d also left my glare in the library! I couldn’t help 54 this and I invited her back to my apartment for a quick cup of tea.

Born on Jan. 29th, 1954 in Kosciusko, Mississippi, Oprah Winfrey was an extremely bright child. Her parents divorced when she was very young. She had a tough childhood living with her mother from the age of 6 to 13. She then went to live with her father, Vernon Winfrey. He made sure that Oprah read a different book every week and required that she wrote a book report. Although this may have seemed harsh at the time, it could have given her the love of books she has today. In 1978, Oprah was hired as a co-host of a show called People Are Talking, which began her career as a talk show host. In 1984, Oprah moved to Chicago to host WLS-TV's morning talk show, AM Chicago. In less than a year, the show expanded to one hour and was renamed The Oprah Winfrey Show. In 1986, it became the highest-rated talk show in television history. In the USA, over twenty million viewers a week watch her show. She has an Internet website packed with topics of interest for her audience. Her monthly book club has changed many of her viewers from TV “couch potatoes” to enthusiastic readers and active members of Oprah’s Book Club.

The Silk Road was not a simple trading network. It passed through thousands of cities and towns. It started from eastern China, across Central Asia and the Middle East, and ended in the Mediterranean Sea. It was used from about 200 B.C. to about A.D.1300, when sea travel offered new routes (路线). It was sometimes called the world’s longest highway. However, the Silk Road was made up of many routes, not one smooth path. They passed through what are now 18 countries. The routes crossed mountains and deserts and had many dangers of hot sun, deep snow and even battles. Only experienced traders could return safe. The Silk Road got its name from its most prized product. Silk could be used like money to pay taxes or buy goods. But the traders carried more than just silk. Gold, silver, and glass from Europe were much found in the Middle East and Asia. Horses traded from other areas changed farming practices in China. Indian merchants traded salt and other valuable goods. Chinese merchants traded paper, which produced an immediate effect on the West. Apples traveled from centre Asia to Rome. The Chinese had learned to graft(嫁接) different trees together to make new kinds of fruit. They passed this science on to others, including the Romans. The Romans used grafting to grow the apple. Trading along the Silk Road led to world-wide business 2,000 years before the World Wide Web. The People along the Silk Road did not share just goods. They also shared their beliefs．The silk Road provided pathways for learning，diplomacy(外交)， and religion(宗教)· 63. It’s probable that traders along the Silk Road needed__________.

What is the best title for the passage? A. The Silk Road：Past and Present B. The Silk Road：East Meets West C. The Silk Road: Routes Full of Dangers D.
