The weatherman said there was going to be a terrible storm, but the weather was so nice. Molly's mother was going to buy some batteries(电池)in the corner store to prepare for the storm, although Molly thought it wasn't necessary.
Her mum left and was back an hour later. It was about 6:00 p.m., and the sky began to turn dark because of the black clouds. The wind also started to pick up. Then the rain started to beat against the windows. The trees shook hard. Some of the neighbours' plants fell off their windows. “I'm scared,” Molly said to her mother. The storm lasted for about thirty minutes, long enough to make the lights go out and the old trees fall over. Even Gretchen, the cat, was staying quietly under the sofa. Molly's mother lit some candles so they could see their way around the house. “What about the dinner?” asked Molly. Her mother bought some fish when she went to the corner store. “I had a feeling that we wouldn't be able to cook, so I bought the fish and some bread,” said Molly's mother. They ate the fish and the bread by candlelight. “You know, this is kind of fun. It's almost like camping,” said Molly.
Later that night, the lights came back on. Molly said,“Although it was a scary time, I did have fun.”

Probably, we can't remember some normal days in our daily life easily, although someone has a good memory. However, when some big events happened, such as the FISU World University Games and the successful launch(发射)of Shenzhou23, it's hard for most of us to forget. We can remember what we were doing at that time. Why does that happen? Here are some reasons that will help us understand why we remember big events while forgetting others.
Some events are bigger and more important than other things. They appear in our memory every now and then. They are reported on TV or on the Internet from time to time, or maybe the people around us always talk about them in our daily life.These help us remember the events.
Some events are about our hobbies or our favourite people, so we can't forget them easily. For example, if we are interested in planes, we probably remember the day when C919 flew into the sky. If we like reading Jin Yong's books, we may not forget the day when he died.
When something makes us have a bad feeling, like being afraid or sad,our mind can feel we are in danger. It keeps the event in our memory, so we can remember to keep away from it. For example, if we fall off the bike and hurt our legs badly, we will remember it all the time and be careful when we ride bikes.
