    Many TV programs are very realistic. One who watches TV often feels that whatever happened in the film could well happen to him. With only a little imagination, every man in the street becomes a thief, a spy or a murderer. Jane had been watching a spy film at a friend's house. In it, a young girl had been followed and murdered. She felt a little frightened walking to the station. She took the train back to the center of the city. There were a lot of people travelling, so she felt much safer. She looked round at the other people in the train.

　　     A man, sitting opposite her, reading a newspaper, glanced (看一下) at her. She thought nothing of it until she saw him staring at her.
