whose qualities illuminate(照亮) me and train me up for love. it is for these people that i reserve the glowing hours, too good not to share. when i was in the eighth grade, i had a friend. we were shy and“too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. we said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say:“lets start with a train whistle today. “ we would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. then we would read them aloud. at the end of that school year, we, too, were changed into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped. when i lived for a time in london, i had a friend. he was in despair(失望) and i was in despair. but our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. we met every sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. we walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted. we gave london to each other. for almost four years i have had a remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine. we write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the others dreams. she and i agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. in my most interesting moments, i often think:“yes, i must tell. . . “ we have never met. it is such comforting companions i wish to keep.

into your pocket or handbag”. then he paused:“but youll always be limited by the size of the wheels. and so far no one has invented a folding wheel. “ it was a rareindeed uniqueoccasion when i was able to put ritchie right. a 19th-century inventor, william henry james grout, did in fact design a folding wheel. his bike, predictably named the grout portable, had a frame that split into two and a larger wheel that could be separated into four pieces. all the bits fitted into grouts wonderful bag, a leather case. grouts aim:to solve the problems of carrying a bike on a train. now doesnt that sound familiar? grout intended to find a way of making a bike small enough for train travel:his bike was a huge beast. and importantly, the design of early bicycles gave him an advantage:in grouts day, tyres were solid, which made the business of splitting a wheel into four separate parts relatively simple. you couldnt do the same with a wheel fitted with a one-piece inflated (充气的) tyre. so, in a 21st-century context, is the idea of the folding wheel dead? it is not. a british design engineer, duncan fitzsimons, has developed a wheel that can be squashed into something like a slender ellipse (椭圆). throughout, the tyre remains inflated.
