That would have been, Kane, a boy．Kane was the two-year-old son of Jolene, my new neighbor． At a glance Kane was a sight. He’d been born with hard sticks for legs. And on that morning ‎ I witnessed the effect that Kane’s physical shortcomings had on his family. But I also witnessed much more than that． I saw an extraordinary family that embraced this special child. A family that wouldn’t allow Kane to know he was different. Jolene had constructed a small cart just a few inches off the floor for his son to get around. Using his hands to move About, Kane moved the cart to “go to” any place just as everyone else was able to do. Kane worked that little cart like a master. Kane was a vital focus of the entire family. He was more than just a member of the family; he was the soul. This child was the driver, the motivator, and the founder of much of the interaction． Much later in my life, I came to realize that God had sent this child to help some of us who just weren’t getting what love was all about. Even with my limited capacity for understanding at the time that Kane was a highly developed spirit with great wisdom． Kane demanded attention, but not because of his mobility challenges or other apparent shortcomings . In his mind , he had no challenges or shortcomings. The truth is that he received attention because he was alive and real and had so much to offer． Kane was and still is a lot of warm and powerful energy sent to us all, so we might learn that love surpasses all things. Kane, a fragile yet lovely baby, was here to teach us all an important lesson. And at the age of two he did just that． 24.

How did Kane “get to” everywhere he wanted to go? ‎ ‎ A．By moving his cart with his own hands． ‎ ‎ B．By asking his father to lead him ahead with a stick． ‎ ‎ C．By asking his grandparents to push him everywhere． ‎ ‎ D．His parents specially employed a babysitter for him．‎ ‎26．Kane needed attention because he wanted to show ________． ‎ ‎ A．he can challenge his difficulty in moving ‎ B．he had challenges or shortcomings in his life ‎ C．he himself needed to be looked after by others ‎ D．he had the power to prove he was capable too ‎27．What can we learn from Kane’s story? ‎ ‎ A．Love me, love my dog． B．Love is above all things． ‎ ‎ C．Many hands make light work． D．Pure gold fears no fire．‎ C ‎ Since the first Earth Day in 1970, Americans have gotten a lot “greener” toward the environment . “We didn’t know at that time there even was an environment, let alone that there was a problem with it,” says Bruce Anderson, president of Earth Day USA. But what began as nothing important in public affairs has grown into a social movement.‎ Business people, political leaders, university professors, and especially millions of grass-roots Americans are taking part in the movement . “The understanding has increased many, many times,” says Gaylord Nelson, the former governor from Wisconsin, who thought up the firs Earth Day.‎ According to US government reports, emissions (排放)from cars and trucks have dropped from 10.3 million tons a year to 5.5 tons.

Even when people are traveling, they scan for free Wi-Fi. When selecting or rating a hotel, six in ten travelers believe that unlimited Wi-Fi is the most important factor. “Today, people will never forget to pack their smart phones, tablets and laptops into the suitcase,” said the Daily Mail. “We rely on free Wi-Fi heavily when traveling—especially when it comes to checking social media, checking out travel tips, and accessing websites.” However, despite the opportunities that free Wi-Fi gives us, “our over-reliance on technology has come at a price, with travelers feeling unable to escape social media”, said Lonely Planet, the world’s largest travel guide brand. Anita Isalska, Lonely Planet editor and tech addict, was forced to unplug when in an isolated (隔绝的) camp in Greenland recently. “Adjusting to this slower pace, I began to realize that: social media had changed into a habit,” she wrote. “I had believed I was capturing（捕捉） moments, but in reality my busy fingers were preventing me enjoying travel’s deepest pleasures. How fully can ‎ you appreciate a huge glacier or wild flowers when your brain is selecting the right photo filter (滤镜) or the perfect six seconds to take photos”     In September, Lonely Planet released 10 predictions for the future of global travel. One of them was that true escapes will be highly valued in future, so remote hotels will start to make their lack of the Internet into an appealing feature.
