　 Prison Break(《越狱》)is a huge hit thanks to its handsome star, Wentworth Miller. His character, Michael Scofield, is the engine that drives the show.

　 Having committed a crime to get into prison and break out his innocent older brother, Michael Scofield is one of the most interesting personalities on television today. But what about the man behind the character

　 Miller, 35, is a hard guy to figure out. He does not come from a normal background and has never lived his life in a typical way.

　 Miller didn't take a direct path to fame and fortune. He graduated from Princeton University(美国普林斯顿大学)in 1995, not with a degree in theatre or film, but in English .He didn't even act when he was in college. His only performance experience was in his university's singing group.Yet, at graduation Miller still decided to make the move to Hollywood.

　 Miller has always been different. Although he is American, he was born in Britain when his father was studying there. His family background is also a special mix of cultures. "My father is black and my mother is white. That means I have always been caught in the middle. I could be either one, which can make you feel out of place," Miller says.

　 Following his unusual path, Miller did not start trying out for films and TV shows when he first got to Hollywood. Instead, he worked as a lowly production assistant. Not what you would expect from a Princeton graduate. However, it all paid off for Miller in the end.

　 In 2002, Miller played a role in the drama Dinotopia (《恐龙帝国》). He starred as a thoughtful and shy man. Producers remembered his performance when they were casting Prison Break two years later. With a golden globe nomination(提名)and another season of Prison Break on his resume(履历), Miller seems ready to take over all of Hollywood.

　 Do you know how to use a mobile phone without being rude to the people around you?

　Talking during a performance irritates people. If you are expecting an emergency call, sit near the exit doors and set your phone to vibrate . When your mobile phone vibrates, you can leave quietly and let the others enjoy the performance.

　Think twice before using mobile phones in elevators, museums, churches or other indoor public places-especially enclosed spaces. Would you want to listen to someone’s conversation in these places? Worse yet, how would you feel if a mobile phone rang suddenly during a funeral! It happens more often than you think. Avoid these embarrassing situations by making sure your mobile phone is switched off.

　When eating at a restaurant with friends, don’t place your mobile phone on the table. This conveys the message that your phone calls are more important than those around you.

　Mobile phones have sensitive microphones that allow you to speak at the volume you would on a regular phone. This enables you to speak quietly so that others won’t hear the details of your conversations. If you are calling from a noisy area, use your hand to direct your voice into the microphone.

　Many people believe that they can’t live without their mobile phone. Owning a mobile phone definitely makes life more convenient, but limit your conversations to urgent ones and save the personal calls until you are at home.
