Who has deprived the children's happiness of learning???
Children are born with a natural desire of learning. They are curios and concerned about 36 around them. They are 37 to learn anything that amazes them. They have so many 38 that they keep on asking. They can bore the 39 all day long with many 40 questions which they will never feel bored with. Why? This is because learning is their 41 , perhaps an instinct of human beings. They just can't help. But 42 , they feel bored with learning, especially when learning becomes a boring 43 for them, especially after school has become a 44 of their life, especially when they have to 45 teachers who tell them again and again to 46 to recite and memorize things they don't want to learn, and especially 47 they realize school is not what they once 48 to be but something that, according to their parents, they must rely on in order to 49 a good fame or a good job or a good future. That is to say, learning has become a 50 , which they are forced or 51 to face. So it is the teachers and parents who have thrown the heavy 52 on the children. And meanwhile, the competitive society is also to blame. The children have been 53 of their pleasure and happiness that they could have enjoyed from the natural learning.
Therefore, my 54 to the students’ learning is that they 55 enjoy learning, enjoy the pleasure that they could feel from learning itself. Find back the long lost desire and curiosity of learning in their childhood.

Most glasses help people see better, but a new invention from Japan may soon improve language skills and language barriers instead.
High-tech Company NEC has a device that it says will users to communicate with people of different.
Shaped like a pair of eyeglasses without the lenses(镜片), the computer-assisted Tele Scouter would a picture-forming device to present almost real-time translations directly onto the retina（视网膜）. The text, provided through voice recognition and programs, would effectively provide movie-like “subtitles” (字幕)during a conversation between two people the glasses.
“You can keep the flowing,” NEC market development official Takayuki Omino told reporters at Tokyo exposition the device was on display. “This could also be used for talks with secret information,” says Omino, that there would be no need for translators.
Each user’s words would be by microphone, translated, and be instantly for conversation partners in visual texts and as audio delivered through headphones.

It was 20 years ago. I was driving home with my 4-year-old son. Traffic was light. I was singing quietly along the song playing on the radio. I at the intersection(交叉路口) and looked both ways. The road was . I slowly started to make a right turn when suddenly a car rounded the curve at high speed and came at me. I stomped (猛踩) on the brakes of my car killing the engine in the process. The speeder zoomed (疾驰) past my dead car me by inches without even slowing down.
I knew it, a stream of rude words was flying from my lips, after the car and its driver. I then saw my son who was staring up at me . With a red face and a(an) smile I started the car, pulled back onto the road, and headed home.
Later that evening I was reading a book when I heard certain words coming from my son’s bedroom. He was replaying the over and over in his mind. Too I realized the of those words that had flown from my lips in that moment of . It took a lot of talks about good language and bad language with my son to undo (消除)the of that incident.
That , however, did teach me just how strong words be. It helped me to decide to stop swearing (咒骂) in my own life and to start using words uplifting and inspire instead. I slowly realized that language is a from God and should be used to make our world better but not worse. I learned that a few loving words can help a hurting heart, strengthen a spirit, and lighten a heavy load. I pray then that all of your words today are full of love, joy, happiness, and light.
