     I was sure that I was to be killed. I became terribly nervous. I felt in my pockets to see if there were

any cigarettes, which had escaped their search. I found one and because of my shaking hands, I could

hardly get it to my lips. But I had no matches(火柴), they had taken those. I looked through the bars at my jailer (狱卒). He did not make eye contact with me. I called out to him: "Have you got a light?" He looked at me, shrugged and came over to light my cigarette. As he came close and lit the cigarette, his eyes

inadvertently(无意)locked with mine. At that moment, I smiled. I don't know why I did that. Perhaps it

was nervousness, perhaps it was because, when you get very close, one to another, it is very hard not to

smile. Anyway, I smiled. I know he didn't want to, but my smile leaped (=went) through the bars and

generated a smile on his lips, too. He lit my cigarette but stayed near, looking at me directly in the eyes and continuing to smile.  

     I kept smiling at him, now considering him as a person and not just a jailer. "Do you have kids?" he asked. "Yes, here, here." I took out my wallet and nervously fumbled (摸) for the pictures of my family. He,

too, took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his plans and hopes for them. My eyes filled with tears. I said that I was scared that I'd never see my family again, never have the chance to see them

grow up. Tears came to his eyes, too. Suddenly, without another word, he unlocked my cell and silently

led me out and set me free.  "My life was saved by a smile." Yes, the smile - the unaffected, unplanned,

natural connection between people. I really believed that if that part of you and that part of me could

recognize (认可) each other, we wouldn't be enemies. We couldn't have hate or scare.
