12、ay. Air travel gives you a birds eye view of the world -or even less if the wing of the aircraft happens to get in your way, When you travel by car or train, you are moving so quickly that you do notsee the countryside clearly; car drivers are forever thinking about going on and on; they never want
13、to stop, Is it the great motorways, that attract them, or what? And as for sea travel ,it hardly deserves mention ,It is perfectly summed up in the words of the oldsong： I joined the navy to see the world, and what did I see? I saw the sea. You mentionthe place names in the world like EI Dorado, Kab

But
15、 actual arrival, when it is achieved, is meaningless; you want to move on again.By traveling like this, you suspend（中止 all experience; the present stops being a reality：You might just as well be dead.The traveler on foot, on the other hand, lives constantly in the present, For him traveling and arri
16、ving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes, He experiences the present moment with his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body, At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical tiredness, Satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travelers.

21、ruggling readers, that encourages children to plot, write and draw comic books, in many cases using themes from their own lives.The Comic Book Project was started in 2001 by Michael Bitz at an elementary school in Queens. Since its creation, the program, which is mainly conducted after school, has s
22、pread to more than 850 schools across the country. It has gotten a big push from theCanent craze（ 狂 热 ） among adolescents for comic book clubs and for Manga, a wildlypopular variety of comic originating in Japan.The point is not to drop a comic book on a childs desk and say: “read this.” Rather, the
23、 workshops give groups of students the opportunity to collaborate（ 合 著 ） on often complex stories and characters that they then revise, publish and share with others in their communities.Teachers are finding it easier to teach writing, grammar and punctuation with material that students are fully in
24、vested in(投入 And it turns out that comic books have other built-in advantages. The pairing of visual and written plotlines that they rely on appears to be especially helpful to struggling readers.

28、ze a new method of teaching of using comic booksCThe name sounds funny but the idea is no joke: its a personal toilet called the pee-pool, Anders Wilhelmson, a Swedish architect, is the inventor of the pee-pool.He became interested in the idea of sanitation(卫 生 设 施 ) after taking part in aresearch p
29、roject on the social and political development of cities, One of the most common problems he found in developing countries was the lack of toilets, He wanted to do something to help, So working with others, he started the project in 2005, and the next year started a company called Peepoolple.The toi
30、let is a singleuse bag made of environmentally friendly plastics, The inside is treated with urea （ 尿 素 ） , a chemical commonly used as fertilizer, The hotter the weather, the more quickly the waste turns into what is needed by plants The sanitationprocess can be as soon as a couple of hours or as l

32、 be able to buy the pee-pool in countries Vietnam, Bangladesh, etc.The United Nations says more than two and a half billion people around the world do not have good sanitation, Many have no choice but to use the outdoors, which is not only bad for the environment, but also harmful to peoples health,
33、 Each year, poor sanitation leads to three fifths of those people getting an infectious disease which on average causes one out of 1,000 patients to die.Jack Smith, the founder of the World Toilet Organization, says “This is quite an unacceptable situation given the fact that we are living in the mo

39、反 射 地 ） shut down in the face of a lecture , Their eyes glaze over（ 呆 滞 ） ,and they dont register any incoming information , Listen to 13-year old Sarah describe her least favorite times with her mom and dad, “First, they scream, Then comes the “Were so disappointed speech , Then the I never did tha
40、t to my parents lecture begins , After that, even if they realize how ridiculous they sound, they never take it back”.Lines like “When you have children of your own, youll understand” have been seriously said by parents since time immemorial, But many of our expert parents, likeBobby , a registered
41、nurse and mother of three, feel that by falling back on cliches（陈词 滥 调 ） to justify our actions, we weaken our position.Since kids are creatures of here and now, the far-off future has no relevance to them, Therefore ,good communicators like Bobby suggest, “Give specific reasons for your actions in
42、present language: Im not letting you go to the party because I dont think there will be enough adult supervisions（ 监 护 ） ”。Betty, who lives in Missouri ,uses an indirect approach, “I find that warnings are accepted more readily if I discuss a news article on a subject I am concerned about, My husban
43、d and I talk about it while our children absorb the information, Then they never think Im preaching（ 布 道 ） ”.This really helped when Bettys kids began driving, Instead of constantly repeating “Dont drink; dont speed”, She would talk about articles in the paper and express sympathy for the victims of

49、lar effects to physical exercise. 38 It also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet.
