(2016·兰州一中高二期中)I was waiting for a phone call from my agent.He had left

a message the night before, telling me that my show was to be cancelled.I called

him several times, but each time his secretary told me that he was in a meeting and

that he would call me later.So I waited, but there was still no call.Three hours

passing by, I became more and more impatient.I was certain that my agent didn't care

about my work, and he didn't care about me.I was overcome with that thought.I started

to shout at the phone, “Let me wait, will you? Who do you think you are？”At that time I didn't realize my wife was looking on.Without showing her surprise, she rushed

in, seized the phone, tore off the wires, and shouted at the phone, “Yeah! Who do

you think you are? Bad telephone! Bad telephone！” And she swept it into the

wastebasket.

I stood watching her, speechless.What on earth...?

She stepped to the doorway and shouted at the rest of the house, “Now hear this!

All objects in this room—if you do anything to upset my husband, out you go！”

Then she turned to me, kissed me and said calmly, “Honey, you just have to learn

how to take control.” With that, she left the room.

After watching a crazy woman rushing in and out, shouting at everything in sight,

I noticed that something in my mood had changed.I was laughing.How would I have

trouble with that phone? Her antics_helped me realize I had been driven crazy by

small things.Twenty minutes later my agent did call.I was able to listen to him and

talk to him calmly.
