Introduction to Letters to Sam

Dear Reader,

     Please allow me to tell you something before you read this book. When my   1, Sam, was born, my heart was filled with joy. I had been sitting in a wheelchair for 20 years before then, and I have been  2ill many times. So I wondered if I would have the  3to tell Sam what I had  4.

     For years I have been hosting a program on the  5and writing articles for a magazine.  Being  6to move freely, I have learned to sit still and keep my heart  7, exchanging thoughts with thousands of listeners and  8. So when Sam was born, I  9to tell him about school and friendship, romance and work, love and everything else. That’s how I started to write these  10. I hope that Sam would  11them sooner or later.

     However, that expectation  12when Sam showed signs of autism (自閉癥) at the age of two. He had actually stopped talking before the discovery of the signs. He  13to communicate with others, even the family members. That was  14for me but didn’t stop me writing on. I realized that I had even   15now to tell him. I wanted him to  16what it means to be “different” from others, and learn how to fight against the misfortune he’ll  17as I myself, his grandfather, did. I just  18if I could write all that I wanted to say in the rest of my life.

     Now,   19the book has been published, I have been given the chance. Every chapter in the book is a letter to Sam: some about my life, and all about what it means to be a   20.

【小題10】 I couldn’t take it any longer, so I went out of the house quietly and 【小題11】  him on his journey. As I leaned into spy on him. I saw the most  【小題12】  sight.

When the water was 【小題16】  ,Billy jumped up to run back to the house. I followed him back to a tap that we had 【小題17】  .Billy opened it all the way up and a small trickle(細(xì)流) began to creep out. When he stood up and began to  【小題18】  ,I was there in front of him. His little eyes were just filled with tears.
“I’m not 【小題19】  ,”was all he said.

Peer pressure can be a powerful force, and sometimes a positive one. For example, hanging out with active peers may lead kids to        more, making a child’s social network a vehicle for promoting healthy habits and        obesity unconsciously.

         The scientists studied networks of a group of students aged 5 to 12 and       how the youngsters’ made and dropped friends, and        effect these changing relationships had on their physical activity level.

In fact, children        their exercise level little by little to better      those in their circle; children who     with more active students were more       to increase their physical activity levels,        those who befriended more sedentary(久坐不動的) children became        active. The children were mirroring, following or adjusting to be        to their friends before they knew it.

The encouraging        suggest a potentially effective way to change children’s behavior.        relying only on organized exercise programs to get moving, perhaps introducing sedentary kids to more active ones — might help more kids        the couch.

It’s believed that this is a possible novel approach to obesity       . The social environment does carry more power than we have given it        for, so we should make use of that intentionally to influence kids.

      that children are increasingly connected to one another,        through face-to-face interactions or virtual ones, their        networks can clearly have a deep effect       many aspects of their behavior-help kids in the long run by turning them into healthier adults.
