   In 1943, when I was 4， my parents moved from Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, to Fairbanks, Alaska, where adventure was never very far away.

   We arrived in the summer, just in time to enjoy the midnight sun. All that sunlight was fantastic for Mum's vegetable garden. Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off, so she didn't care much about my bedtime.

Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mum was his clerk. That left me in a mess. I usually managed to find some trouble to get into. Once I had a little fire go?ing in the dirt basement of a hotel. I had tried to light a barrel (桶)of paint but couldn't really get a good fire going. The smoke got pretty bad, though, and when I made my exit, a crowd and the police were there to greet me. The policemen took my matches and drove me home.

Mum and Dad were occupied in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me, and they did ！ I had a tour of the prison before Mum rescued me. I hadn't turned 5 yet.

As I entered kindergarten, the serious cold began to set in. Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail at school?

As for Leonhard Seppala, famous as a dog sledder(驾雪橇者)，I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday. At the time I didn't realize what a superstar he was, but I do remember the ride well. I was wrapped(包裹〉heavily and well sheltered from the freezing and blowing weather.

In 1950, we moved back to Coeur d'Alene, but we got one more Alaskan ad?venture when Leonhard invited us eight years later by paying a visit to Idaho to at?tend a gathering of former neighbours of Alaska.

Generally speaking,you need to arrive at the railway station an hour before the train leaves. However, if you take a train during the Spring Festival or other holidays,you are advised to be two hours early. Here are the basic steps for boarding.

Enter the railway station

There are X-ray machines at the entrance of each railway station. All the lug?gage (行 李) has to be passed through to examine for dangerous things. Once you put your luggage on the machine, please go to the other side and fetch it quickly in case that your luggage is taken either by mistake or on purpose.

Find the right waiting room

After you enter the railway station, you should find the terminal hall (候车厅) where your train is going to leave from. There are always electronic boards at the railway station with information shown in Chinese. You can find your waiting room according to the information given on your train ticket,or you can ask a member of staff for help if you are in trouble with Chinese.

Get onto the platform (月台)

In most cases, check-in starts 30 minutes before the train leaves if it is the starting station. So you are advised to arrive at the station one hour early. If it is not a starting station,check-in starts when the train arrives,then you just need to be 30 minutes early. You will be informed by radio then. Remember to take all your lug?gage!

Board the train

The train number and the carriage(车厢)number are shown outside the train clearly; therefore it is easy to find your carriage. There is a member of staff at the door of each carriage to whom you are required to show your ticket. If you board on the wrong carriage*he/she will guide you to the right one.
