小故事
It seems that I am really a girl who is blessed by god, for I haven't had any emergency in my 23 years' life. The funny thing is, even if something unfortunate happened to a group of people, I was always one of them out of this.
When I was still a little girl, maybe 5 or 6 years old, we kept a burner on in our bedroom one winter. At that time, only a few people could use the electric burners, so we used briquette instead. Besides, to keep the room warm, we closed the window at night. This led to the gas poisoning, both my parents felt sick and dizzy next morning, and they rested for whole day when they realized they made such a mistake. I, at the same time, went to school as usual and felt nothing. How dangerous it is!
