作为笔调轻松、文笔优美、诙谐有趣的自然历史书籍之一，《贝格尔号航行日记》记述了查尔斯·达尔文于1831年至1836年间经南美洲、加拉帕戈斯群岛、澳洲重返英格兰的旅程，此次旅行加深了他对生物学的理解，丰富和发展了他的进化论观点。在达尔文的笔下，他的那些冒险经历，诸如火地岛遭遇“野人”、在巴塔哥尼亚偶食生禽，以及试图骑上晃晃悠悠的巴塔哥尼亚乌龟的努力都一一生动地跃然纸上，描绘得栩栩如生。

点灯是康明斯的第一部小说，是直接的畅销书，在20天销售20000份。八周售出40,000工作，并在五个月内已售出65,000。在当时，这是第二只在销售斯托夫人的“汤姆叔叔的小屋”。在英国售出了超过10万份，被翻译成多种不同的语言。霍桑的小说写在1855到威廉D.蒂克纳的信中：“什么是点灯这些无数版本的神秘面纱，其他书籍既不更好，也不更坏吗？”在同一封信中，霍桑他臭名昭著的说法，“美国现在全给了广告-D涂鸦妇女”暴徒。这很可能是从来没有读过霍桑点灯，但今天他的信是主要的“声名鹊起”的小说。

这是一本张承中（Selina未婚夫）所写；关於selina从上海拍戏灼伤到出院的90天连续日记，透过他的近身记录，真实呈现，她所受到的苦，一个胆小、怕鬼、爱哭、又爱漂亮的女孩，在承受上苍给她考验，90天犹如地狱般的日子後，她，仍然乐观的面对人生。阿中曾在网路上表示：我是个比你们幸运一点点的歌迷，可以比较接近S.H.E跟Selina，可以默默地近距离支持她们、喜欢她们。现在，上苍给了Selina一个巨大的考验，我也比你们幸运一点点，可以默默地近距离照顾她、守护她。如此胆小的她，怎麼可能捱过这种惊吓？听著曾被烧伤的艺人形容三度灼伤的疼痛，如此怕痛的她，怎麼可能受得了？不能想像，根本不敢去想，却还是会想。现在的她呢？声音有一点不一样，样子有一点不一样，但她的人一点都没变，平常的她就跟舞台上的她一样，而现在病床上的她，就跟平常的她一样，胆小怕鬼爱哭怕痛但乐观开朗，可是乐观免不了沮丧，不过沮丧过後还是乐观。
