　　Three packs of cigarettes were lying there on the pavement. I went down from

　　Shubentsov’s office doorstep, picked them up and pocketed them. Later, in a bar, when I opened the first pack, I found – to my

　　36

　　– the twenty cigarettes were there.

　　I’m still at the bar, telephone in one

　　37

　　and the cigarettes in the other. I’m dialing Shubentsov, who told me to call the moment I felt the urge to

　　38

　　. I feel it, feel it even

　　39

　　than I felt Shubentsov’s healing energy. That’s saying something, since Shubentsov is known around the world for

　　40

　　smokers of their nasty habit, using a

　　41

　　method. He sent his healing energy from his fingertips, he tells me – something he picked up from another man in Russia. “I help you for free,” he told me in his muddy accent. “Just call me

　　42

　　.”

　　I went to see Shubentsov. I think it’s time to

　　43

　　because I’m getting old, and I can’t keep doing this to myself. But here’s the real problem. I should quit, but like a lot of you

　　44

　　with the same habit, I really don’t want to.

　　Smoking has been very good to me. Cigarettes have never let me down, never abandoned me on

　　45

　　, desperate nights. Smoking

　　46

　　my head, helps me

　　47

　　. Smoking has started conversations, driven away annoying people. Smoking helps me celebrate victories, get over losses, comfort the comfortless. It also chases away the mosquitoes.

　　I will

　　48

　　. Soon, my body and my mind are demanding that , daily.

　　I claim to smoke for pleasure, but I realise that slowly I’m losing control of this close, special friend. I

　　49

　　that. I realise it’s not just a “habit”. I’m

　　50

　　.

　　So here I am, attempting to

　　51

　　again, at Shubentsov’s place. I’ve tried all the other quitting techniques

　　52

　　. Anytime the urge to smoke

　　53

　　, he said, just call him immediately and he’ll help. The funny thing is, I realise that I’m not phoning him to stop me from lighting up. I’m phoning him so I can. If I call, I’ll have done my part. Then I can smoke this cigarette. Besides, I know that at 9.30 on a Friday night, I’ll get the answering machine. I do. “The office is open from ten to four. Call me back then. This machine does not take messages.”

　　I put the phone down and I can honestly say I’m

　　54

　　. You see, it’s not Shubentsov’s fault or anyone else’s fault that I’m still

　　55

　　. It’s mine.

　　Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to smoke this cigarette. Whether I’ll really enjoy it, though, is another story.

　　36.A. sadness

　　B. disappointment

　　A

　　Seeing in Stereo

　　Have you wondered why you have two eyes and why they are set close together on the front of your face? The reasons are simple and important to the way you see the rest of your world．

　　Your eyes are like two small cameras. A camera catches an image of an object and records it on film．Similarly，when you look at something，each eye takes in what it sees and sends this image to the back of the eyeball．Because your eyes are set close together，they view the world from about the same height but from slightly different angles. Working as a team, the eyes send the images to your brain, which puts them together into a single, centered image.
