Before I spoke to his school, Matt was waiting for me. He satin his wheelchair barely able to move. As soon as he saw me he started smiling. He could not talk but I pretended the sharks were eating his cereal and his laugh melted the hearts of everyone walking by. One of the teachers told me that he was actually very smart, he just could not control his muscles due to a childhood disease. He was happy and very popular at his school-his 'parents' love and encouragement made all the difference. On the contrary—at a book signing
session, I met a girl by the name of Anne. She walked up with her mom with a bright smile. Anne asked about my book with a slur（含糊地发音） in her speech indicating a slight head-
injury. I told her about it and she smiled the whole time and asked me to sign one for her. I did.
Five minutes later, I heard a voice from Anne's father, \ stand the book. You can't read well enough. You aren't smart enough.\
loudly that people were staring in their direction. She was absolutely crushed and her bright smile was now replaced with a look of total despair. He pried the book from her and brought it back to me and asked me to take it back. I asked him if he would allow me to purchase the book for Anne. He said no with a heartless response. I thought back to Matt. He could not
speak, walk, run or play but was actually very happy and even doing well in school because of the love and encouragement of his parents. Anne on the other hand had a slight learning problem and may never know happiness of success because of a stern(苛刻的) father. What kind of parent are you? The truth is that whatever you are telling your kids- makes the difference between their success or failure in life. 24. What is Matt's problem?
A. He is blind. B. He isn't smart enough . C. He suffers a muscles' disease. D. He can't speak and read. 25. Compared with Anne, Matt is lucky because
A. his parents are rich B. his parents love and encourage him C. his disability is not serious D. the author feels sympathy for him 26. Hearing her father's words, Anne felt __
A. light-hearted B. doubtful C. cautious D. heart-broken 27. What does the author probably do? -
A. A writer. B. A teacher. C. A doctor. D. A lawyer.

This will make you think twice about dismissing the physical abilities of women. Serena Williams
If know Serena Williams, then you know better than to harbor any illusions that you can take on the top female tennis player even on your best day. Nicknamed by the media as the Queen of the Court, she has won 19 Grand Slam singles titles and 13 Grand Slam doubles titles as of May 2015. By the way, she can send the ball hurtling towards your face on the excess of 120 miles per hour on her serve. Ronda “Rowdy'” Rousey
Former Olympic judo（柔道） gold medalist Ronda 'Rowdy' Rousey has been dominating women's MMA for the past several years. She earned the nickname 'The Arm Collector' for. winning the majority of her fights via armbars.

Many believe that Cris Cyborg will give Rousey trouble and may even have an outside chance of beating her. While Rousey is an excellent grappler owing to her judo background,

A recent report says we spend an average of two hours and 40 minutes each day looking at a smartphone. That doesn't mean making calls, but using apps and browsing the Web. Spend that amount of time staring at anything.
Checked our email in a restaurant, shared a picture of the food when it arrived, or checked a fact during a conversation only to be drawn into reading more instead of contribu- ting verbally. It's no secret our lives are being affected by our obsession with smartphones. However, never before has this phenomenon been displayed so vividly as in the short YouTube film I Forgot My Phone.

The short film, written by and starring actress Charlene deGuzrnan, shows groups of
