legs have been well all my life she sighed But I don t under stand I said Your dancing career You pretended all these years Very much so and for a very good reason She thought for a while and then continued We were talking about engagement 订婚 when your grandfather had to go to war 1 was so afraid of losing him that the only way I could stay normal was to dance I put all my energy and time into practicing and I became very good Critics praised me the public loved me but all I could feel was the ache in my heart not knowing whether the love of my life would ever return Then one day a letter came There were only three sentences I have lost my leg I am no longer a whole man and now give you back your freedom It is best you forget about me I made my decision there and then I traveled away from the city When I returned I had bought myself a stick I told everyone I had been in a car crash and that my leg would never completely heal again My dancing days were over No one doubted the story l had learned to limp 一瘸一拐地走 convincingly before I returned home And I made sure the first person to hear of my accident was a reporter I knew we lf Then I traveled to the hospital They had pushed your grandfather outside in his wheelchair I took a deep breath leaned on my stick and limped to him I showed him newspaper articles of my accident There is a whole life waiting for us out there But I am not going to carry you You are going to walk yourself I limped a few steps toward him and showed him what I d taken out of my pocket Now show me you are still a man I said He bent to take his stick from the ground and struggled out of that wheelchair He managed it on his own and walked to me and never sat in a wheelchair again in his life What did you show him I had to know Grandma looked at me

cars on the road and greater jam on the Underground With roads and underground lines to be more overcrowded than ever this summer a few people may try to use it as an excuse for a day off But for employees at Interxion a messy commute 通勤 上下班 during the Olympics will hold no weight That s because in a proposal to keep things ticking over this summer bosses at the London company are asking staff to sleep at work in space pods 太空舱 Far from sleeping on the job engineers at Interxion in east London will be asked to stay behind and sleep in the closed pod to avoid the rush hour while other companies are set to offer staff the luxury of working at home during the Olympic Games Coming in a range of colours the pods made of polycarbonate sell at anything from 1 375 The pods are fitted with either foam mattresses 泡沫垫 or a standard single mattress as well as a storage shelf mirror and power points These types of pods have been around for years in hotels but Interxion is thought to be among the first to have them fixed at the workplace Podtime the firm behind the unusual pods are listing them as the perfect solution to the Olympics overcrowded traffic On their official website they state London businesses will be severely affected by the transport problems caused by the Olympics Our adaptable pods provide the best solution to this by allowing your staff to stay on site as

the same neighborhood pool their children together and share the responsibility of being parents Spending every day together but not families in this coastal city of East China three mothers are trying a new way of raising their kids by pooling them together Among the mothers are both office workers and housewives They say they do so not just because of the tight schedule Jiujiu s mother said By kids pooling we mean to create an opportunity for the kids to spend time together so that we can observe our kids learn more about them And then we can discuss how to better bring them up The three families have been doing so for two years in school days and holidays Their children have grown used to each other s company Chichi s mother said My son was a bit shy We ve been talking him to be more active but he hardly changed After joining the kids pool suddenly we found him willing to communicate with others now When we are not there he has to rely on himself to get along with his pals Generally mothers speak highly about the pooling The mothers describe the pooling as bringing the running water into a closed pond It opens a window to a different world for both kids and parents But there are moments when opinions differ Xiaoxiao s mother said Sex education for example Kids will be curious about it when they reach a certain age Personally I want to talk with my child about it frankly and sincerely But the other two moms think it better not to bring it up Xiaoxiao s mother says her solution is to share some parenting guidebooks with other mothers and let them make the decision The headmaster of the kindergarten believes such pooling activities test not only children but also the parents Jin Hongqing kindergarten headmaster said Parents need to be tolerant and patient They shouldn t play the blame game when kids fight with each other It s better to let the kids solve the issue by themselves What they can do as parents is to communicate 62 All the following
