In February 2006, I flew into Beijing from Shanghai to watch a performance by Iceland’s Bjork and to interview her.

Some people find it difficult to   36   Bjork’s music.  Her sound is an acquired taste, but  37   you get into it, you’re hooked. After the   38   press conference, I was   39   to a room where we did a one-on-one   40   for radio. I was surprised at how intelligent and pleasant she was. And fun.

The   41   at Worker’s Stadium was unbelievably wonderful. Barefoot for most of the show, Bjork   42   the audience’s interest with her music and her spirit.

However, an incident gave me an impression that she was unusual and moody.

The next day I was invited to go to the Great Wall with a lot of   43   who were to take pictures of Bjork. She was with her son and did not seem to be in the   44   for the photographers. She stood and stared at the ground, not facing the   45  .

Then suddenly, she ran off to the   46  , out to her waiting bus, and sped back to Beijing. It was strange to see since she had been so   47   with the press a few days before.

After leaving Beijing, she went on to perform in Hong Kong and Thailand. In a story that   48   around the world, she jumped on and attacked a female reporter at the Bangkok airport who   49   said, “Welcome to Thailand!”

You may have seen her at the Academy Awards a few years ago when she   50   in that usual swan costume,   51   perhaps her performance of Oceania at the opening ceremony of the 2004 Greece Olympics. Bjork does demand attention.

She’s   52   a new album, Volta. She challenges us to enter her own world with every album, and this one is no   53   .

Working with a variety of producers, including Timbaland, she takes us into her music again with an artistic   54   . It is   55   to digest, but if you can appreciate her unusual efforts, you will have a lot to get into.

I was in a rush as always, but this time it was for an important date I just couldn’t be late for! I found myself at a checkout counter behind an elderly woman seemingly in no hurry as she paid for her groceries. A PhD student with not a lot of money, I had hurried into the store to pick up some flowers. I was in a huge rush, thinking of my upcoming evening. I did not want to be late for this date.

We were in Boston, a place not always known for small conversation between strangers. The woman stopped unloading her basket and looked up at me. She smiled. It was a nice smile –warm and reassuring—and I returned her gift by smiling back.

“Must be a special lady, whoever it is that will be getting those beautiful flowers,” she said.

 “Yes, she’s special,” I said, and then to my embarrassment, the words kept coming out.

“It’s only our second date, but somehow I am just having the feeling she’s ‘the one’. Jokingly, I added, “The only problem is that I can’t figure out why she’d want to date a guy like me.”

“Well, I think she’s very lucky to have a boyfriend who brings her such lovely flowers and who is obviously in love with her,” the woman said.” “My husband used to bring me flowers every week –even when times were tough and we didn’t have much money. Those were incredible days; he was very romantic and – of course – I miss him since he’s passed away.”

I paid for my flowers as she was gathering up her groceries. There was no doubt in my mind as I walked up to her. I touched her on the shoulder and said, “You were right, you know. These flowers are indeed for a very special lady.” I handed her the flowers and thanked her for such a nice conversation.

It took her a moment to realize that I was giving her the flowers I had just purchased. “You have a wonderful evening,” I said. I left her with a big smile and my heart warmed as I saw her smelling the beautiful flowers.

I remember being slightly late for my date that night and telling my girlfriend the above story. A couple of years later, when I finally worked up the courage to ask her to marry me, she told me that this story had helped to seal it for her –that was the night that I won her heart.

     It was a Sunday and the heavy storm had lasted all night.The morning after the storm,though,was beautiful:blue skies,warm air and a calm,inviting sea touching the shore gently.

     My father realised it was a good day for fishing and invited my sister and me to go with him.I was only 14 and fishing had never been my thing, but I decided to go all the same.I’m so glad I did.

On the road to the harbour we could see the terrible destruction on the coast,but the harbour itself was in fairly good shape.After allm it was protected by the arms of a bay that had only one tiny channel to the sea.As we got on board,we noticed two big humps(脊背) in the distance.

On approaching them,we saw it was a mother whale with her baby.We couldn’t beliece it ----there aren’t any whales along the coast here.The storm must have driven them across the ocean into the bay, in which the still water was so badlly polluted that nothing could surive.

The little baby whale ----actually as big as our boal----was obviously stuck and could not move.The mother dived under the water and came up suddenly,making big whirlpools(漩涡) and waves.”She’s trying to help her baby, but on the wrong side,”my father said.At this point,myfather moved our boat in a semicirele to the other side and ,heading the boat towards the baby whale,pushed it gently.With our several gentle pushes the big hump turned over and disappared under water.Then it swam up right beside its mum.They stuggled in their desperate attempts to escape but missed the exit and started heading in the wrong direction.We hurried up to the whales

and tried to lead them towards the bay channel.Showly,they let us lead them,some-times rising from the water right beside us to breathe----and to give us a trusting look with those huge eyes.Once they hit their first part of clean water flowing straight from the sea,the mum gave us a wave with her tail and off they swam into the distance.

In the excitement it had felt like only a few minutes, but we had been with those wonderful animals for almost an hour and a half.That was the simple and lasting beauty of the day,Nearly four decades later ,I still look back fondly to that golden day at sea.
