MONTREAL (Reuters)-Crossing the US-Canada border (邊界) to go to church on a Sunday cost a US citizen $ 10 000 for breaking Washington's strict new security(安全) rules.
The expensive trip to church was a sur-prise for Richard Albert, who lives right on the Canadian border. Like the other half-doz-en people of Township 15, crossing the bor-der is a daily occurrence for Albert. The nearby Quebec village of St. Pamphile is where they shop, eat and go to church.
There are many such situations in these areas along the largely unguarded 5 530-mile border between Canada and the US-which in some cases actually runs down the middle of streets or through buildings.
As a result, Albert says he did not expect any problems three weeks ago when he returned home to the US after attending church in Cana-da, as usual. The US customs (海關(guān)) station in this area is closed on Sundays, so he just drove around the locked gate, as he had done every weekend since the gate appeared last May, fol-lowing a tightening of border security. Two days later, Albert was told to go to the customs office, where an officer told him he had been caught on camera crossing the border illegally(非法).
Ottawa has given out special passes to some 300 US citizens in that area so they can enter the country when Canadian customs stations are closed, but the US stopped a similar program last May. That forces the people to a 200-mile detour along hilly roads to get home through another border check-point.
Albert has requested that the customs office change their decisions on the fine, but he has not attended a Sunday church since. “I feel like I'm living in a prison, ”he said.

Bill Javis took over our village’s news-agency at a time of life when most of us only wanted to relax. He just thought he would like something but not too much to do, and the news-a??gency was ready-made. The business produced little enough for him, but Bill was a man who only wanted the simplicity and order and regularity of the job. He had been a long-serving sailor, and all his life had done everything by the clock.
Every day he opened his shop at 6:00 a. m. to catch the early trade; the papers arrived on his doorstep before that. Many of Bill’s customers were city workers, and the shop was convenient for the station. Business was tailing off by 10 o’clock, so at eleven sharp Bill closed for lunch. It was hard luck on anybody who wanted a paper or magazine in the after??noon, for most likely Bill would be down on the river bank, fishing, and his nearest competitor was five kilometers away. Sometimes in the afternoon, the evening paper landed on the doorway, and at 4 o’clock Bill reopened his shop. The evening rush lasted till seven, and it was worthwhile.
He lived in a flat above the shop, alone. Except in the very bad weather, you always knew where to find him in the af??ternoon, as I have said. Once, on a sunny afternoon, I walked home along the river bank from a shopping trip to the village. By my watch it was three minutes past four, so I was aston??ished to see Bill sitting there on his little chair with a line in the water. He had no luck, I could see, but he was making no effort to move.
“What’s wrong, Bill?” I called out from the path.
For answer, he put a hand in his jacket and took out a big, golden object. For a moment I had no idea what it could be, and then it suddenly went off with a noise like a fire en??gine. Stopping the bell, Bill held the thing up and called back, “Ten to four, you see, and this is dead right.”
I had never known anyone carrying a brass alarm clock round with him before.
Bill Javis became a news-agent when _______.
A. he needed the money
B. he was quite an old man
C. he decided to take up fishing
D. he gave up clock-repairing
Bill opened the shop so early in the day because _______.
A. he liked to do as much as possible before he went to work
B. the shop had to be open when the morning papers came
C. he was never sure of time
D. it was then that he did a lot of business
From the information given in the passage, who or what do you think was wrong?
A. The bell was-it must have gone off at the wrong time.
B. Bill was-h(huán)e had dropped off to sleep.
C. The writer’s watch was-it was fast.
D. Bill’s clock was-it was old.

In this farming community where nightfall usually brings clear. starry(滿天星斗的)skies, people are devoted to reported sightings of what many believe is a UFO.
Several dozen people, including a pilot, a county police and some business owners, insist they have seen a large silent object with bright lights flying low and fast. Steve Allen, an air-transporting company owner and pilot, said the object he saw last week was a mile long and half a mile wide.
While David Lawrance, a federal official, insisted there’s a logical explanation, the locals swear that it was larger, quieter, faster and lower to the ground than an airplane. They also said the object’s lights changed shape, unlike those of a plane. People in several towns who reported seeing it over several weeks have offered similar descriptions of the object. Jamy Sorrells said friends made fun of him when he to1d them he saw a flat, metallic object circling about 300 feet over a farm behind his home. But he decided to come forward after reading similar accounts in the Stephenville Empire-Tribune. “It feels good to hear that other people saw something, because that means I’m not crazy. ” Sorrells said.
Karl Lewis. a spokesman for the 301st Fighter Wing at the Air Base in Fort Worth, said no F—16s or other aircraft from his base were in the area the night of January 8, when most people reported the sighting. Lewis said the object may have been an illusion(幻影)caused by two commercial airplanes. “I’m 90 percent sure their was an airliner, ” Lewis said, “With the sun’s angle, it can play tricks on you”. Officials at the other two air force bases in this region also said none of their airplanes were in the area last week .
