   After her goods were tallied(清点), she was handed a receipt. Her receipt had a message that she would receive a special gift for a child at customer services. 4 

   As I stood there,I felt that there may have been a child that would benefit from that gift in her own family or circle of friends and realized that one act of kindness could have a chain reaction.

   Sunday lunch at my sister-in-law,s. We,re discussing a new horror film in which our 13-year-old,acting-mad,nephew Caspar landed a small role. Though everyone wants to see him in his first feature film,his mum wont see the film (too scary) and neither will his uncle (my husband) .

   For years now,my husband and I have been having discussions on whether or not it's good to be scared by art. I'm still upset that I didn’ t go to see The Blair Witch Project because he wouldn 51 come and I didn't dare to go alone. ‘The things in the movie just stay with me” he says. ' They haunt (萦绕在……心头) me.

   I dont like watching violence either,but it doesnt haunt me afterwards because nothing that I saw is ever much worse than the dark material that already exists in my own head. As a novelist,I know I write about the things that frighten me 一 loss,fear,the raw black edges of life. Being allowed to do this makes me feel safe because I know I can pull back from these things at any time.

   Speaking of fear,I remember my visit to a Victorian prison a few years ago in order to research a novel. I paid my money and went in,following the yellow arrowed path that led into a maze (迷宫) of dark cells. After two minutes,I realized that a) I was alone,b) it was extremely dark,c) I could hear someone crying,and d) I had no idea how much more there was. Yet e) if I turned back now,I could easily lose my way and no one would hear me screaming down there.

   There was no going back. My heart was beating hard and I could hear the pounding of my own blood as I made my way deeper and deeper into the wet and cold stone maze. When I finally came out and saw the sunlight,I was shaking and sweaty.

   I haven’t thought about it in a long time,but,while writing this,I just googled it,only to discover that it's one of the most haunted sites in Britain. Now they tell me!
