Daniel Kish had serious problems with his eyes when he was born. And doctors took away both of his eyes before he was fourteen months old.Soon after, however, he started to do an amazing thing. He started to make clicking(咔嗒) sounds with his tongue(舌头) to help him move around. Much like a bat(蝙蝠), he now moves about using sonar(声呐). He is so good at it that he can ride a bicycle in traffic. He and his group, World Access for the Blind, teach others how to use sonar. In this interview with National Geographic, Kish explains how the process works.How does sonar work?When I make a clicking sound, it makes sound waves. These waves reflect(反射) off surfaces all around and return to my ears. My brain then processes the sounds into images(图像). Its like having a conversation with the environmentWhen you click, what do you see in your mind?Each click is like a camera flash. I make a 3D image of the things around me for hundreds of feet in every directionWhat is it like riding a bike using sonar?Its exciting and enjoyable but requires a lot of focus. I click up to two times per second, much more than I usually do.Is it dangerous to move around the world in this way?Much of the world lives in fear of things that we mostly imagine. I have a habit of climbing anything and everything, but I never broke a bone (骨头) as a kid.”How challenging is it to teach people to use sonar?Many students are surprised how quickly results come.

Then, we are _(worry) that we may not get a good job. After getting a job, we are wondering _we can finish all the work well or not.

Never doubt _(oneself) when problems come up and its certain that you can finally manage to get over all the difficulties. Its necessary to realize this and try to be happy every day. One of my favorite quotes(引述) from Alfred Souza is that For a long time it seemed to me that a new and happy life was about to begin. But there were always some difficulties and challenges along the way, something to be dealt with first, some unfinished work, a bill to be paid. Then life would begin. At last I came to understand that these difficulties are just my life.This view makes a great difference _me. It gives me courage to face all the difficulties in an active way instead of _(run) away from them. It also helps me know that there is no way to happiness. So value every moment that you have now. And always remember time waits for no one. You can never afford to waste your time waiting for a better life to come _the present time is the best. So stop waiting _you graduate, you get married, you have kids and you get a new car.
