After dinner, I am used to walking alone in century avenue outside the community, watching colorful neon flashing, letting the pleasant spring breeze blow my cheeks and enjoying the leisurely lifestyle of modern people.
It seems that when a person leaves, he can think about everything and nothing. Along the way, people of different sizes and square dances can be seen everywhere. I can't help but sigh: the pace of people's life is really different now!
"You are my little apple. I love you enough. " Suddenly, a familiar and pleasant song came from not far away. Looking in, I saw an old man coming towards me with a pocket radio in his hand. Seeing this scene, my soul was suddenly touched, as if I had met an old friend who had been away for more than 20 years-the butterfly radio that I once owned and brought me a turning point in my destiny.
When I graduated from high school, I fell behind in my English single subject, which led to my failure in the college entrance examination in the first year. In those days, I was depressed and listless all day. Facing the bleak and helpless future, how I long for my English score to go to a higher level and realize my dream of going to college one day!
After failing in the college entrance examination, due to the restriction of family conditions, I had no choice but to choose the career of contract teacher. In those days when I was a substitute teacher, I never gave up learning English. But because there is no tutor, the progress is always small, and the future is still bleak. I am eager to help my English study through the assistance of audio teaching such as radio waves.
At that time, broadcasting has always been an important tool to contact the central government and people. All kinds of news and latest instructions are transmitted to the whole country through radio, which is people's real spiritual food. On New Year's Eve, hundreds of people sit around a radio and listen to CCTV's Spring Festival Gala program, which is the best enjoyment, no less than the mood of ordinary people watching the Spring Festival Gala now. In the 1980s, a popular word called "three turns and one ring" was the highest standard of dowry, and that ring meant radio. At that time, it was impossible for an ordinary family to own a radio.
Late one night, the moonlight was like washing, and occasionally I could hear one or two dogs barking. People have fallen asleep, but I don't feel sleepy at all. I vaguely heard the voice of English conversation on the neighbor's radio. I guess the neighbor's master has fallen asleep and forgot to turn off the radio. Hungry for English learning, I got up, crept to the corner and listened carefully. I stood for two hours until the radio stopped. I was still awake and intoxicated by the English conversation on the radio. Since then, my heart has been itching, always dreaming that one day, I can really have a radio of my own. But such a dream is not an extravagant hope for a family like ours.
Finally, one day, before I acted. Without my parents' consent, I took the liberty of using the money I usually saved in 35 yuan to go to the county seat and bought a seafood butterfly desktop radio with great interest. I just bought a house, and before it appreciated, I was severely scolded by my uncle and others, saying that I didn't know how to chip in and save it to build a house and marry a wife. No matter what they said, I ignored it. Anyway, I'm Zhang Fei and I'm determined not to return it. In fact, where will they know my good intentions of insisting on buying radios?
With the radio, I seem to have got a treasure and I can't put it down. On the radio, Dan Tianfang, a famous storyteller, wrote ballads such as Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Biography of Yue Fei and Yang Jiajiang, which suddenly brought me to a heroic world. At that time, I also liked listening to novels and radio dramas, and the radio became my best friend. On rest days, I often take my radio to the fields to help my parents do some farm work and listen to my favorite programs. The announcer's sweet voice has been echoing in the wilderness. Although all the stories are quite different from my own life, I can still smell the fragrance of the earth, which is warm and full. Looking back now, I still have a crush. .....
In those days, whenever people were asleep, I kept listening to English programs on the radio. Over time, I gradually have a perceptual understanding and improvement of my oral English ability, and at the same time I have strengthened my confidence in going back to school to continue cramming for the college entrance examination in the future. Many things happen. In the college entrance examination that year, my English score was 97 (total score of additional questions 1 10), which made teachers and classmates cast admiration and envy eyes, that is, I was admitted to the university as I wished that year and fulfilled my dream of life.
He always liked listening to the radio when his father was alive. Since I went to college, radio has naturally become my father's loyal partner. Every morning before dawn, he would turn on the radio, listen to the news, weather forecast and stories told by Liu Lanfang, and work in the fields during the day. The radio is always with him. My father tells everyone stories about me and the radio. Whenever he mentions his son in front of relatives and friends, there is always a proud smile on his face.
That year, my mother was seriously ill in hospital and upset. The empty room smelled of disinfectant. My mother sighs every day, clamoring to be discharged from the hospital and not cooperating with the doctor. Suddenly, I thought of my radio. My mother likes opera. I tune the channel to her every day and let her listen to a paragraph quietly. Mother lay quietly in the hospital bed with a hint of comfort on her face. Soon, my mother recovered and was discharged from the hospital. She and her father often put on a little farce at home, because going to the opera or listening to the news. That year, my radio became the regulator of my family, which also made my family a little noisy and laughed occasionally, making life full of happiness.
Every winter and summer vacation, the first thing I do when I go home is to pick up my beloved radio handle and play. I still can't put it down. In the next few years, after several relocations, it is inevitable to get rid of some old and unnecessary things, and others can be thrown away without hesitation. Only the radio that I regard as a treasure has been preserved so far, although it has long lost its proper function.
Now it has entered the network era, and electronic products such as mp3 player, mp4 player, walkman, car radio, movie player, HD video player, record player and square dance machine are overwhelming. Traditional broadcasting seems to have withdrawn from the historical stage, but I still have a soft spot for it. This is not only nostalgia, but also a memory of the happy time it brought me.
Enjoying life through broadcasting has always been a way of life that people pursue. Compared with current electronic products, radio has many advantages. First, the radiation is small and harmless to the human body. Second, there is no need to use traffic, save money, and so on. Although the traditional radio has long been replaced by smart phones, and the information transmission is many times faster than the radio era, I still love it as always-the radio I used in those years, because it accompanied me through the long night before the college entrance examination. I wouldn't be here today without it. Whenever I drive to work and hear the loud voice of the announcer on the car radio, I can't help thinking about it. While we are feeling that life has undergone earth-shaking changes, we must never forget that a happy life is hard-won. We should be content, learn to be grateful, do it and cherish it. Gratitude accompanied it all the way forward, and it accompanied me to welcome the spring of life; I am grateful for everything that life has given me, which makes my life wider and wider.
