Running a marathon (马拉松) is difficult enough. Doing it with eyes closed for 26.2 miles is more difficult. But that's exactly what Mike Bruno plans to do during the Pittsburgh marathon.
He's doing this for his 7-year-old daughter, Cassie, who doesn't like to communicate with others and has been blind since birth. “Having a blind daughter clearly has caused me a lot of trouble,” Bruno said. “ But it doesn't matter. I love my daughter. I hope to get a better understanding of how she deals with her daily life. I hope this journey will finally make me a better father to guide Cassie through her life.”
“When the doctor told us 'Your baby is not going to see', that was the most terrible experience we had ever had,” said Bruno.
“Sometimes I walk around the house with my eyes closed to see what it's like for her,” said Cassie's older sister, Carly, 9 years old. “It's kind of scary. You don't know where everything is.”
But Cassie has fought against difficulties, and her father plans to do the same. “I closed my eyes, and I got ready, a nd then I tried running, just to see what it is like for her,” said Mike Bruno. “I want everyone to know it's OK.

The 2017 Fortune Global Forum (财富全球论坛) was held in Guangzhou from December 6 to 8, 2017 for the first time with the theme of "Openness and Innovation: Shaping the Global Economy". This is the fifth Fortune Global Forum held in China. Since its beginning in 1995, the Fortune Global Forum has been providing chances for CEOs of the world's most important companies and world leaders to get together and discuss matters about international business.

Great effort was made in order to make the event a success. For example, a total of 1,200 volunteers were chosen mostly from universities to serve the 2017 Fortune Global Forum. Training courses were also carried out to prepare volunteers for their jobs. They even had a volunteer's song. The lyrics and music
of the song was written by the famous lyricist Zhong Shan and composer Wang Xiaosong. The official version of the song was sung by famous singers Wang Chenrui and Wang Sulong.

Bed ZED, a new eco-friendly village (生态村) in the south of London, has done a great job of providing its villagers with a high level living while getting them to pay more attention to protecting the environment.

The rainwater is collected for use in the toilets. Also, the people there travel to work in shared cars or use public transportation if they work far away.
Now, you may think it's not easy to live such a life, but let me tell you. it's not! It's a way of life. We just have to say no to what is bad for the environment, and begin working on ideas to protect it. Life would be much more pleasant if villages like Bed ZED existed (存在) all over the world!

A lot of earthquakes happen in the world every year. Why do earthquakes happen? Scientists tell us the outside of the earth is made of a number of different plates （板块）. The plates move very slowly. Sometimes they stop and don't move for a long time. When some of the earth's plates move suddenly, an earthquake happens.
Many earthquakes happen under the sea. Sometimes they happen near mountains. In fact, earthquakes may happen anywhere on the earth.
During an earthquake, the shaking makes rocks rise suddenly and even break openly. Houses fall. People are killed or hurt. Sometimes whole villages or cities are destroyed.
Scientists have studied earthquakes and made maps that show "earthquake belts". In the areas in these belts, it's possible for earthquakes to happen. In these areas we can make houses strong enough to sand against earthquakes.
In the future, scientists will be able to predict（预言） exactly when and where an earthquake will happen. They can tell us what to do and how to do as well.
（1）Few earthquakes happen in the world every year.
（2）The outside of the earth is made of a number of different plates.
（3）We can do nothing to keep ourselves safe from earthquake.
（4）A map showing the earthquake belts tells people what kind of houses can stand in an earthquake.
（5）In the future, scientists can predict exactly when and where an earthquake will happen.
