I’d like to share the strangest of the strange moments I’ve had here．

Back in 2003 I had a pet rabbit named Alaska．Due to the rules the landlord had set，he had to be kept in the basement(地下室)．One night I went downstairs to feed him．Keep in mind I’ve always thought the basement was frightening．As I was facing his cage and putting the bowl of water inside，a big shadow appeared behind me，as if a big，tall man were standing behind me．I turned around and nobody was there，but I got the distinct(清晰的)feeling that I was being watched．I basically dropped the water bowl and ran upstairs shouting for my mom．Ever since then I can’t go down there alone．

Once I was trying to get to sleep，and I slept with the lights off．All of sudden I wanted to leave the room eagerly，but I couldn’t get out of my bed，I was too scared．The feeling of someone looking closely at me was so upset，I was physically afraid to move or breathe．I opened my curtains to let the street light in，thinking the light would help me feel better to move．That did nothing．I must have sat there on my bed for about fifteen minutes before I got up．I didn’t sleep in there that night．I’ve never felt anything so upset!

Then there are all the little things，like seeing things in the comer of my eye，hearing doors open or close when I’m home alone，and the feeling of being watched．Once when my sister wasn’t home(we share a room)I heard someone breathing from her bed and heard the sheets rustle(沙沙聲)．Last week，I felt someone patting me in the shoulder when I was alone in my room．Sometimes I’ll be looking something and I’ll see one or more contorted(扭曲的)，angry faces．

I realize that when one is looking for something to happen they can make things happen or imagine it．These are the moments in which I know nothing was imagined，so I wanted to share them and get your opinions．Thanks so much．

I was waiting for a phone call from my agent. He had left a message the night before, telling me that my show was to be cancelled. I called him several times, but each time his secretary told me that he was in a meeting and that he would call me later. So I waited and waited, but there was still no call. Three hours passing by, I became more and more impatient. I was certain that my agent didn’t care about my work, and he didn’t care about me. I was overcome with that thought. I started to shout at the phone,

“Let me wait, will you? Who do you think you are?”

  At that time I didn’t realize my wife was looking on. Without showing her surprise, she rushed in, seized the phone, tore off the wires, and shouted at the phone, “Yeah, who do you think you are? Bad telephone! Bad telephone!” And she swept it into the wastebasket.

  I stood watching her, speechless. What on earth….?

  She stepped to the doorway and shouted at the rest of the house, “Now hear this! All objects in this room--- if you do anything to upset my husband, out you go.”

  Then she turned to me. Kissed me and said calmly, “Honey, you just have to learn how to take control.” With that, she left the room.

  After watching crazy woman rushing in and out, shouting at everything in sight, I noticed that something in my mood(情緒) had changed. I was laughing. How could I have trouble with that phone? Her antics helped me realize I had been driven crazy by small things. Twenty minutes later my agent did call. I was able to listen to him and talk to him calmly.

China is facing power shortage, so your computer and television may be on holiday.

This year power shortages cover 20 provinces across the country. The shortage can usually be blamed on air conditioners. Wuhan, in Hubei province, as much as 100,000kw of electricity would be saved if people set their air conditioners one degree higher than normal.

You may have many household electrical appliances(家用電器)in your home. The following tips can help you save electricity.

Use air conditioners less. Set the temperature a little bit higher than normal and turn it off one hour before you go out.

Turn off the lights when you leave a room.

Unplug electricity devices when not in use. Many televisions and computers use electricity even when they are turned off.

In rooms where you don’t often stay for long, close curtains during the day to keep off the sun, especially on windows that face south or west. Open them in the evening to let cool air in so you may not need to use air conditioners.

Take shorter showers. Water heaters use a lot of energy.

Open your refrigerator door only when necessary. Each time you open the door, the compressor(壓縮機) will run for 8-10 minutes to keep the inside cold.

Ask your parents to replace your regular lights with fluorescent(熒光的)lights. They use about a fourth of the energy of regular lights.
