When asked why he didn’t return the books, Mr.Banish said,”Well,how could I?

He continued,“Books are people,too! They talk to you,they take care of you,and they enrich you with wisdom,humor and love.A book is a guest in my home.How could I kick it out? I repaired tor n﹙撕破的﹚ pages.I dusted them with a soft clean cloth.I turned their pages so they could breathe and get some fresh air.”
“Every week I reorganized them on their shelves so they could meet new friends,My books were HAPPY books.You could tell just by looking at them.Now they’re all back in the libraries,on the lower shelves,on the floors,at the mercy of all those runny-nosed kids I can hear them calling me.I need to rescue them.Excuse me.I have to go now.”

  Christopher Chaney, the man accused of hacking(非法侵入)celebrities'online accounts from which private images were posted on the Internet, will be in court on Friday for an identity hearing.

  Earlier this week, Chaney said I deeply apologize.I know what I did was probably one of the worst invasions(侵犯)of privacy, but I just became “addicted” and “didn't know how to stop”.

  Authorities accuse the 35-year –old of hacking into accounts on computers and other devices belonging to more than 50 people, including movie stars Scarlett Johansson and Mila Kunis and singer Christina Aguilera.

  Chaney was charged with accessing protected computers without authorization and damaging protected computers.He was able to access nude(裸體)photos of some of the celebrities and some of them were uploaded om the Internet.He also took financial information, movie scripts and conversations that the celebrities believed to be private.

  The FBI's Los Angeles office said he was arrested as part of “Operation Hackerazzi, ”which looked into computer invasions targeting individuals associated with the entertainment industry.“The hacking started as curiosity and it turned into just being, you know, addicted to seeing the behind-the –scenes of what's going on with these people you see on the big screen every day.It just happened and snowballed” Chaney said, adding that he wished it had never begun.

  Chaney was able to access passwords by monitoring social media and other online sites that the celebrities used.“You may have selected a password that' s meaningful to you that you may disclose online with friends”, said Steven Martinez, assistant director in charge of the FBI's Los Angeles field office, “Your pet's name or whatever.That's a clue to a hacker, to start there”.

  It's said that Chaney also used public sources to mine data about his victims.Once he hacked into a celebrity's e- mail account, he woule use the contact lists to find other celebrities'e-mail accounts, which allowed him to add new victims.

didn't believe me because he seized the shopping bag right out of my hand.
     "Do you have a receipt for this?"he asked doubtfully, putting any new back-to-school
outfit (全套裝備) onto the dusty floor near the mall entrance.
     "Of course I do," I replied, fishing my wallet out of my coat pocket. Elsie and Monica,
my two best friends, stood beside me. They were laughing their heads off!
     I almost tore my wallet apart for the receipt, but it  had disappeared." Let me look again,"
I said nervously. Then I looked again, and again, and again!
