Do you know 1 some people have a horror of living in high-rise buildings? No? I do. I know 2 they get this feeling. 3 , this sense of horror is quite justified, too. 4 , you see, I am one of them. This feeling comes from my two months of living at my aunt’s. It 5 happened that my aunt lived on the 28th floor of a 30-storey apartment. And that was 6 I came into contact with self-service elevators. As you know, I’m nearsighted, and the elevator is usually quite dim . 7 , I had great difficulties in finding the right button. If there was only me in the cage, it was all right. I could peer at the panel of buttons to my heart’s desire. 8 , alas, the elevators were usually crowded during rush hours, and I could not elbow my way to the panel, could I? Thus my horror towards high-rise buildings!
