Louis Braille was born in Coupvray,France.He was a very smart child.Unluckily,at the age of four,he became blind by accident.Louis began attending school in his town when he was seven years old.
Three years later,Louis and his father traveled to Paris.There,he went to a school for blind children.One day a French soldier,Charles Barbier,visited the school.Barbier invented a system of night-reading.This system used small dots for the letters.Soldiers used this system in time of war.Barbier thought this system could help the blind to read.
Soon Braille discovered that there were some shortcomings(缺点)in Barbier's system,but it gave Louis a brilliant idea.He improved Barbier's system.By the age of fifteen,his new system was completed! Now he wanted blind schools to try his system.Luck went against him again.The school refused to use his system.Louis died in 1852 in Paris at age forty-three.
Two years after he died,the blind schools began to use his system.Today we call this system Braille in honour of Louis Braille.His system is used for all languages,and for maths,science,writing music,and computers for the blind.

When I was seven years old, my family made me an ant farm. First, we put clean sand in a thin glass box. Then we waited for the ants to arrive.
After the ants were in the glass farm, they started to make tunnels(地道). I was amazed that each one knew exactly what to do. Each had its own job.
On the fifth day a tragedy(悲剧)happened. I put my face so close to the glass farm that I knocked it over. All the tunnels fell down. Although the ants remained alive after their earthquake, one by one they began to die. I was scared as I watched them give up building their tunnels to carry the bodies to a corner of the farm.
My mother said that the ants were dying of sadness. They simply could not stand that their tunnels were gone.
Although much time has passed, I still think of that ant farm. Mom had hoped it would teach me about the natural world, but it taught me much more.
Over the years, I came to realize the importance of teamwork. Working together, the ants were able to make an amazing world for themselves. I also learned that they should be admired(钦佩)for their hard work.
But there was an even larger lesson that I did not realize until recently: Adversity(逆境)is a natural part of life, and must be accepted. Unlike the ants, we cannot give up when we are sad. We have to realize that if a tunnel is gone, we must build another.
Giving up, I say, is not a good choice.
