Gary was a policeman. He liked boiled eggs. He often had one for breakfast. One morning in December, he was on duty on the road in his police car. At ten o’clock, he went into a small cafe by the roadside for breakfast. He asked for a boiled egg, a drink and a sandwich. When the waiter brought them to him, he found that the egg was not cooked enough. He decided to cook his egg a little longer. He put the egg inside the microwave oven and turned the switch on. He let the egg cook for one minute. Then he took it out and went back to his table. He picked up his spoon and pushed it into the egg.
Suddenly there was a loud explosion ( 爆炸声) .For a moment, all the other people rushed to hide under the table in the cafe as they thought someone had thrown a bomb ( 炸弹) into the building.

My aunt Edith was aged 50, working as a secretary, when doctors discovered a very serious heart illness.
Aunt Edith didn’t accept defeat easily. She began studying medical reports in the library and found an article in a magazine about a well-known heart doctor, Dr. Brown. He had saved the life of someone with the same illness. The article said Dr. Brown’s fees were high. Aunt Edith couldn’t possibly pay them. But could he tell her of someone whose fee she could pay
！
So Aunt Edith wrote to him. She simply listed her reasons for wanting to live: her three children, who would be on their own in three or four more years, among them a little girl who always dreamed of travelling and seeing the world. There wasn’t a word of self-pity----- only warmth and humor and the joy of living. She mailed the letter, not really expecting an answer.
A few days later, my doorbell rang. Aunt Edith didn’t want to come in; she stood in the hall and read aloud happily:
Your beautiful letter moved me deeply. If you can come to Houston, there will be no charge for either the hospital or the operation.
Signed: Brown
That was seven years ago. Since then, Aunt Edith has been around the world. Her three children are married. For her age, she is one of the youngest, most lively people I know.
