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 didnt care about my work, and he didnt 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 didnt 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 a crazy woman rushing in and out, shouting at everything in sight, I noticed that something in my mood had changed.

Why read an article in the newspaper,when the TV news can bring you the information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read the life story of a famous man,when a short television program can tell you all that you want to know?Television has not killed reading, however. Today,newspapers sell in very large numbers. And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and enjoymentAlthough some books with hard covers are expensive,many books are printed today as paperbacks,which are quite cheap. A paperback collection of short stories,for example,is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theater,and you can keep a book forever and read it many times.Books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be in every homeEvery home should have a good dictionaryA good encyclopedia (百科全书),though expensive,is useful,too,because you can find information on any subjectBesides,you can have such books as history books,science textbooks,cookbooks,and collections of stories and poemsThen from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favorite poets.58.

This is a question that will puzzle many, as people rarely think of that. In the early space-travel years, astronauts ate dehydrated (脱水的) foods that were eaten through straws (吸管). In todays space-age, the food that they eat is totally different. They eat food in the same way as people do on Earth.Astronauts are able to prepare and eat a variety of foods in space. Some can be eaten in their natural form, like fruits, while some need to add water, like noodles. However, there are no refrigerators, so the food has to be prepared and eaten without being stored for a long time. When the astronauts are hungry, they simply eat the food by opening the food packages and with a fork, knife, and spoon.Just like people on Earth, astronauts also eat three meals a day which include breakfast, lunch and dinner. Sometimes they also eat snacks. The US space agency NASA has found out that an astronauts diet reduces by about 70% on a space mission, though he has a wide range of foods to choose from like nuts, chicken, beef, seafood, and candies. Drinks in the spaceship include coffee, tea, juices, and lemonade.Astronauts can also request a particular food that they would like to have in space. Scientists are always experimenting and trying out different space foods that can be offered to astronauts w
