The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam has welcomed home two paintings by the Dutch master, more than 14 years after they were ripped (抢) off the museum’s wall in a nighttime theft. Museum director Axel Rueger called their return “one of the most special days in the history of the museum.”

The paintings were discovered last year by Italian police while they were searching suspected Italian criminals’ farmhouse near Naples for evidence of drug dealing. The two paintings were wrapped in cotton sheets. They were stuffed in a box and hidden behind a wall in a toilet when they were found.

The paintings were considered among the artworks most searched for in the world. After years in darkness, they can now shine again. They are back on display at the museum before being taken to the conservation studio for repair. Fortunately, they suffered remarkably little damage as thieves who had climbed up a ladder and broken a window to get into the museum in 2004 rip them out of their frames.

“It is not only a surprise that the works have been recovered but it’s even more surprising they are in relatively unharmed condition,” Rueger said.

The museum director was on vacation when the call came last year from Italian authorities who believed they had recovered the paintings. He didn’t celebrate right away. He’d had calls li this before.

“I was hopeful but also a little hesitant. Over these years, we had so many occasions when people phoned us, contacted us, claiming that they knew something about the whereabouts (下落) of the works and each time it was false, the trace went cold,” he said. “So...the way has been till of disappointment.” But museum experts sent to Italy to check the authenticity(真实性) of the works quickly turned Rueger’s doubts into delight.

Rueger said the paintings are now back permanently at the museum, which is home to dozens of works by Van Gogh. “I’m very confident that everything is safe in the museum from now on,” he said.

1.How were the stolen paintings found?

A. The police found them by accident.

B. The arrested thieves gave information.

C. Some drug dealers offered clues.

D. The police knew the hidden place.

2.What surprised Rueger most about the lost paintings?

A. They were stolen at night.　　 B. They were found at last.

C. They suffered little damage.　　 D. The search took 14 years.

3.When Rueger got the call from Italian authorities, he　　　　 .

A. didn’t believe them　　 B. felt quite relieved

C. planned to celebrate　　 D. doubted the news

4.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 6 probably mean?

A. Reuger gradually lost interest in the search.

B. The number of false calls was greatly reduced.

C. Rueger felt cold because of too many false calls.

D. The chance to find the paintings became slim.

Less than one year after France imposed a nationwide ban on smoking in most public places, it will, from Jan. 1, 2009, extend the ban to bars, restaurants, hotels, nightclubs—and the most cherished of all: cafés.

Ireland and Italy show that countries with long-standing smoking traditions may introduce bans fairly smoothly, as they did in 2004 and 2005. In Germany, where regulations vary locally, Berlin will join France on Jan 1. But fierce critics of the new law in France say it all but destroys the café's basic function: to serve as the socio-economic glue of society.

Cécile Perez, owner of La Fronde, a typical Parisian neighborhood café, said: “In the morning, street cleaners in bright green uniforms sip coffee next to well-dressed businessmen; at lunch hour, working-class types rub shoulders with those of the latest fashion at the bar, while couples of all ages rub noses over salads; during the after-work rush, there is a steady soundtrack of clinking glasses combined with conversation; the constant, no matter what time of day, is the smoke that drifts through the air in curls and clouds, seemingly unnoticed.”

“Our motto in France is: liberty, equality, fraternity,” Olivier Seconda, a regular at the café, said. “The café is the place that represents that. You’re free to smoke, everyone pays the same price for a beer and different kinds of people talk with one another. This new law goes against that.”

Seconda expects the ban to be felt even more strongly in small villages far from Paris, where the café is often the only means of social activity. “People already miss the space that allows people of all walks of life to share something—even if it is sometimes no more than a few words and the smoke floating between them.”

1.Cécile Perez mentions the curls and clouds of smoke drifting through the air to ______.

A．describe a friendly atmosphere

B．show the beauty of his own café

C．support the ban on smoking

D．remind us of something unnoticed

2.Olivier Seconda implies that ______.

A．the café provides people with enough liberty, equality, and fraternity

B．people, regardless of their social classes, enjoy equal rights in a café

C．the new ban on café smoking should be put in effect only in villages

D．people would not find fun in a café without smoking a cigarette

3.The passage is written to _______.

A．show the writer’s personal opinion against a new law

B．provide information for law-makers to pass a new law

C．tell why some people are unhappy about smoking ban in cafés

D．compare attitudes to a law, held by people from different countries
