Chapter 20 As the saying goes, "Scholars don't go out" - my day

Since I became a scholar who didn't go out, the way to "know the world's affairs" is to listen to the radio and watch TV besides reading newspapers and magazines.It should be said that these channels have given me great joy and enjoyment.I wake up very early every day, and I am fully awake at about four or five o'clock in the morning. At this time, I think the most: I think about the past, the present, and even the future. There is a small clock on the small table next to my bed, a flashlight and a semiconductor radio next to my pillow—I remember that this radio was given by a Japanese friend during my last visit to Japan in the spring of 1980. .It is late in winter, and I use a flashlight to look after it. At six o'clock in the morning, I start listening to the programs "Science Knowledge" and "Around the World". These programs have given me a lot of new learning and knowledge.

Listen to "news and newspaper summaries" later, and then get up and freshen up.After breakfast, I wrote the diary of the previous day. At 7:30, I lay down to rest again, preparing for the things I should do in the morning, such as writing letters, meeting customers or writing small things. The "People's Soldiers" program that I heard on the semiconductor radio is my favorite. It not only reports the moving stories of soldiers from various arms across the country, but also the great achievements of famous generals in the past dynasties.After that, every day at 12:30 in the afternoon when I took a break again, I listened to the "Novel Continuous Broadcasting" program. There are many novels such as "Waste Time", "The Tilting Attic", etc., which I listened to through very clear and vivid announcers. What I heard from my mouth seems to be more exciting than when I read a book!And then there's the "sports news" at 9:45 before bedtime.I watch TV, and I like watching football games the most. As long as there is any kind of football game that the Chinese team participates in, I will not "pull" a game!I never write or read in the evenings, nor do I do any entertainment other than watching TV.Of course I have to watch the "News Broadcast" at seven o'clock. I also like to watch concerts and song contests. Unfortunately, the time of the TV program preview is not as accurate as the broadcast time. There are also many commercials and temporary short films. Good feature films If the delay continues, it will disrupt my "must go to bed before ten o'clock every night" time.

All in all.Our country's radio and TV programs are very educational and the general stories are clean and healthy.I remember that before my illness in 1980, I often participated in visiting groups to go abroad and lived in foreign hotels. If there were no meetings at night, I liked to lock myself in the room and watch TV.There are many foreign TV stations, and the show time is also very long - most of them are from six in the morning to two in the evening.Most of the story programs shown are pornography and murder, and there are often many advertisements interspersed in the middle.Therefore, every time I come back from abroad, when listening to the radio and watching TV, I feel that my eyes and ears are clear!
