Daniel Kish was born with a special eye illness and lost his eyesight before he was only 14 months old. Soon after, however, he started to do an amazing thing. He learned to make clicks （咔噠聲） with his tongue to help him move around. Kish now moves about using sonar （聲納）. He is so good at it that he can ride a bicycle by himself on public roads. And he started the organization World Access for the Blind （WAFTB） in 2000, teaching others how to use sonar. In the interview with National Geographic, he explains how the sonar works. When I make a click sound, it produces sound waves. These waves reflect （反射） off surfaces all around and return to my ears. My brain then deals with the sound and turns it into pictures in my mind. Each click is like a camera flash, which helps me make a 3D picture of my surroundings for hundreds of feet. It39。s like having a conversation with the environment. Kish feels it is exciting to ride a bike using sonar, although he needs to click twice a second, much more than he usually does. It may sound a bit dangerous to move around the world in this way, he says. But most people in the world live in fear of things that they imagine. I love hiking and mountainbiking. I go almost everywhere. And I39。ve never had an accident and hurt myself. He is happy to be able to help more blind children to improve their life.

This spring she thought of building a gokart to enter for the GoGo Race. So she asked her dad for help. Well, he said. How about this: you do some research first and then e back to me with a design. A week later, Sally brought her notes and drawings to Dad. She named her gokart Blue Lightning. Dad looked over her work, thinking. Well, that39。s interesting, he said. Have a try. Just build Blue Lightning as you39。ve designed. Over three weekends of hard work, Sally turned her design into a real, working gokart and painted it light blue. Dad asked her to take it for a test drive. Sally agreed. After she did that, Sally drove back to Dad. Well, she said. Now I know why you wanted me to have a test drive. Oh, do you? he said. Please share. When I drove fast, there was a lot of pushback, she said. I think it39。s because of the lightning bolt （閃電） shape. Very good! Dad said. So, why didn39。t you tell me about that problem in the first place? Sally asked. Dad laughed. Where39。s the fun in that? If you give a man a fish, he39。ll eat for a day. But if you teach a man to fish, he39。ll eat for a lifetime. Sally said, I see. Anyway, designing is half the fun! Dad smiled. Good. Sometimes, learning happens during the process. We learn how to do something right by doing it a few times first and making mistakes along the way. That encouraged Sally and she worked even harder. When she showed Dad her new gokart, he nodded with pride. Finally came the race. Sally wasn39。t worried about whether she would win—in her mind, she had already won, by building something better than ever before.（1）Sally
