There was once a young man who began to feel self-satisfied after some small achievements.

    One day, the young man took a walk with a _16_ man from the town. On the way the young man was bragging (吹噓) about himself, _17_ the wise man didn't say a word. When they _18_ a peak (山峰), the wise man asked, "Look down. What do you see?"

     "I see trees, farmland, houses and people as _19_ as ants working in the fields," the young man said.

     "What do you feel?" the wise man asked.

     "Everything is _20_ me. I feel I rule the world," the young man answered.

     The wise man said _21_. After a minute, he asked the young man to look _22_ "What do you see this time?" the wise man asked.

     "I see _23_ flying around high mountains, the white clouds on the mountains and the _24_ sky above the white clouds," the young man answered.

     Then he asked the wise man's _25_

     "I feel small and powerless," the wise man answered. "A person who knows to look upward can _26_ understand his position(位置). When a person knows the blue sky is always overhead, he won't be so _27_ as to believe he rules over the world or other people. "

Word travelled quickly in the small fishing village of Port Washington, Wisconsin. So when McCarty wanted to build a playground for kids with special needs. 2,800 people ? a third of the town ? rolled up their sleeves(衣袖)and helped her.
"A lot of learning comes through play," said McCarty, 52, a special education teacher for 28 years. But her students were too often left out. She'd seen the traditional playgrounds stop wheelchairs dead in their tracks.
On September 16, 2008, the first day of the project, they came. Two women heard about the project on the way to work and took the day off to help. A couple in their 80s took part in the job. Children came and gave a helpful hand. Many were volunteers. They all worked very hard.
Today, Possibility Playground is one of the most popular destinations in Ozaukee County. All children can play shoulder to shoulder. There is special equipment(裝置) in different parts. Here, you see all the kids on the same playground having fun.
"People used to ask. 'Why do you want to build a playground just for children with disabilities?' " McCarty said. "They didn't get it. It's only when you build a playground for children with disabilities that you build one for all children."
【小題1】What's McCarty?

When you are in trouble  at school, you r friends will help you; When you study hard  at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; When you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; When you do something wrong, people around you will help you to collect it; When you do something good to others, you will feel happy ,too. All these are happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you. All these can’t be bought  with money. It’s a feeling of your heart. When you come across difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself.
As the saying goes , lift is a revolving door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a  happy  and lucky person
