Lang Ping, the head coach of China’s national women’s volleyball team, arrived at my high school in Sep 17. At about 9 o’clock, all the Senior 3 student gathered in the school stadium, waiting for the arrival of Lang Ping and her team. The moment Lang stepped into the stadium, nobody could stay seating. We clapped wild as we saw the schoolmaster take Lang to his seat. Them Lang shares her life with us in her speech. She said it was faith and courage had led her to her success.
As the Senior 3 student, I think it was not only a fortunate experience for me, but also a powerful one, as Lang’s words gave me strength. I will keep it in mind what she told us: Trusting yourself and fight every step of the way to win!

Snowblind--it’s a frightening word. Thankfully, it’s a condition that is totally preventable.
Snow blindness is a painful, temporary loss of vision due to overexposure to the sun's UV rays. Essentially, snow blindness is caused by a sunburned eye.
1.Though it is commonly called snow blindness, the condition can (and often does)occur in the absence of snow.
The terms "snowblind" and "snow blindness" have become popular because snow is highly reflective of ultraviolet radiation.2.Also, skiing, mountain climbing and snowboarding usually take place at relatively high altitudes, where the sun's UV rays are stronger. Combined, these factors can double your risk of getting sunburned eyes, compared with being outdoors at lower altitudes in the summertime.
3.Television journalist Anderson Cooper experienced snow-free snow blindness first-hand a few years ago when he spent a couple hours on a boat in Portugal without sunglasses and ended up "blind for 36 hours," according to his report of the incident.
Not only can you become snowblind without snow-- it can happen without sunlight, too!4.For example, sun lamps can cause temporary "snow" blindness if proper eye protection is not used.
5.To relieve pain or discomfort from snow blindness, stay indoors and wear sunglasses. Keep your eyes well-moistened with artificial tears. For additional relief, use over-the-counter pain relievers. Be sure to use only pain relievers you know you can take without worry of an allergic reaction. You also may find that placing a cool, dampened washcloth over your closed eyelids is comforting.
A. You don't need snow to become snowblind
B. It will likely affect those traveling in snowy conditions
C. To prevent snow blindness on the slopes, wear sunglasses
D. Sometimes it occurs from man-made sources of ultraviolet radiation
E. .In fact, snow can reflect over 80 percent of the UV rays that fall upon it
F. Snow blindness is scary, but usually it's temporary, and there are ways to relieve the discomfort
G. But water and white sand also are highly reflective of the sun's UV rays, thus increasing the risk
Every morning at 6 am Alan Swallow gets out of bed, has breakfast and reads the paper. And for that he is an unsung hero.
When he reads The Southland Times in the morning, he reads it aloud and records if for people who are visually impaired(受损的).
The Blind Foundation provides its members with the Telephone Information Service(TIS) which has articles from more than 70 newspapers, radio and TV schedules, finance information, public and government notices and updates from the Blind Foundation. For 17 years Swallow has read the paper for the service. In the early days someone would head down to the local studio to record the news for the day and they had one chance to get it right. Nowadays, the news readers can work from home suing their phones.
The TIS service is available 365 days a year, and it could sometimes take him an hour to get through the local news items he had chosen. “It doesn’t take much effort, but it does take a commitment because people are relying on it.” He said.
The service had struggled for some time with volunteers because not many people knew about it. Swallow said, “It was fulfilling to know that people were benefiting from what he was doing.”
For Blind Foundation social function organiser Liz Anstice, the opportunity to give back to a foundation that had given much to her, was a nice aspect of the role. She has been involved with the foundation for five years after she became visually impaired. She said the biggest challenge was building the trust that people had in the local branch of the foundation.
Anstice reformed the social committee group and changed things so people did not get bored. The Christmas celebrations had been so well received members from the Blind Foundation in Balclutha were coming down for them. However, sometimes getting members to the events was a challenge because of a lack of volunteers available to transport them, she said. She was proud of being a finalist for the Volunteer Recognition Award.
