Uninvent

If I have a choice to uninvent of one thing in the world, the first thing I choose will be atomic bomb because it causes two serious consequences for human. First, atomic bomb leads to extermination of living organism and natural environment. In the second war, two atomic bombs were dropped on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, it caused destruction of animals and natural environment in the areas, there are a lot of people were killed. The article on Wikipedia stated, "Within the first two to four months of the bombings, the acute effects killed 90,000–166,000 people in Hiroshima and 60,000–80,000 in Nagasaki,[4] with roughly half of the deaths in each city occurring on the first day." That is really heartrending disaster in the human history. The second consequence is that negative effects from the bombings are persistent and hereditary. Viet nam is a country bear extremely serious consequences of the war. I've ever witnessed some people who are exposed to Agent Orange, a extremely strong poison is created from the bombings, and children were born with birth defects. If you've never met them, you will not imagine what they look like. I knew before that they don't look like normal people; however, when I saw them, I couldn't believe my eyes. The parts of their body are deformed because of exposure to Agent Orange. All of them have unusual distortions; As the first time I saw them, I was really afraid of contacting with them because they are so different from normal people; I'm afraid of their appearances. The children are unable to think and do anything. It's heartbreaking to see victims of Agent Orange. Therefore, if I have a chance to uninvent one thing, I will wish that atomic bomb never exist in our life.

My funny experience

When I come to America, I often meet trouble in my English. As you know, my English is very very bad, so I often misunderstand. Once time, I went home by bus. The driver informed that someone lost cell phone and he asked us "has anyone found it". However, at that time, I didn't pay much attention to what the driver said because he talked a lot very fast. Besides, my listening skill is also not good, I cannot heard and understand all things he said. Therefore, I had a big mistakes, I thought he said "has anyone who has cell phone sit behind me?" So I told "yes" and he took my cell phone, up to then I still thought that there were some problems with my cell phone, maybe it affected the machine on the bus, hence he kept it, and he would give me back when I took off. But he didn't that, it made me worried. I asked him and explained my mistake to him. This is my embarrassing experience. When I told my friends about this, all of them roared with laughter. They said it's funny. I also think it's really funny, It's an experience I cannot forget it.
