We had two dogs, Lucky and Lily Bit. Lucky loved to find ways to leave the confines (束 缚) of her indoor living routine, which made her a masterful escape artist. Lily Bit, on the other hand, did exactly as she was told, never straying, always staying close to home... except when she came under the influence of Lucky.
Whenever the two got out together, they could be seen out of sights often staying away for hours. More often than not, they’d arrive home near suppertime, covered in mud and leaves and smelling to high heaven from their afternoon outing in the woods.
I remember one such occasion when they’d once again mysteriously escaped, except this

time, they returned clean and no worse for wear. It wasn’t until a few days later that we learned why. My wife ran into our neighbor Carl who lived a few houses down from us.
“I saw your two dogs the other day,” Carl said with a smile,
“Oh, yes? I’m so sorry. They’d been so good lately, so it was such a surprise when they got out. I sure hope they didn’t cause any trouble.” my wife replied,
“Oh, no, no trouble at all. Did you have any idea where they went?” “No,” my wife answered.

“Wow that’s amazing! ” my wife replied. “Toby was Lily Bit’s father, you know. ” “No, I didn’t know that,” Carl replied, “but I guess that explains why she felt like she needed to be there. She had to say her final goodbye.”

Two years ago, Kursat Ceylan was in New York to give a talk about disability rights at the U. N.. Blind since birth, the Turkish man was struggling to find his hotel, holding a cane in one hand and pulling his luggage with the other.
“Not surprisingly, all of a sudden I bumped into a pole,” he says. “It was a little bit bloody.”

B.To be in memory of his dogs. D.To think highly of his two dogs.
The problem with a cane is that, while it can tell you what's on the grounds it doesn't help with objects at the body or head level. It wasn't the first time Ceylan had run into something, injuring himself.
“I have no problem with my scars, they make me more handsome I guess,” Ceylan says, laughing. “But I don’t need new ones.”
With WeWalk, a new smart cane, Ceylan hopes to help other blind people navigate their environments more easily. The cane uses an ultrasonic(超声波)sensor which detects objects at body or head level and gives a warning vibration. WeWalk users pair the cane with their smartphones and then use the cane's touchpad to access features like voice assistant or navigation. Before leaving home, they can plug their destination into Google Maps and get spoken directions as they walk. In the future, Ceylan hopes to connect WeWalk with public transportation and ridesharing services.
The GPS- and voice technology-enabled cane can tell users what’s around them—they’re passing a McDonald’s, they’re at Exit D of the subway station. An ultrasonic sensor detects objects at body or head level and gives a warning vibration.
Assistive technology is often expensive for blind people, says Eelke Folmer, a computer science professor at the University of Nevada! Reno. But developers fail to realize their devices are out of reach for many blind people. To Folmer, the price point—$500——sets the WeWalk cane apart from other technologies.
Ceylan sees WeWalk as part of an attempt to help blind people achieve greater freedom of movement, which he believes will give them greater access to education and jobs. The canes are already having an impact on users, Ceylan says. He recently received an email from a teacher in Ireland who had become blind as an adult. He'd been depressed and housebound. But since getting a WeWalk cane, “your device forced me to go out. It became my anti- depressant. ” he wrote.
8.Why is a story about Kursat Ceylan given at the beginning of the text? A.To stress the difficulty caused by blindness. B.To show his reason for developing his cane. C.To indicate the problems with present canes. D.To show his positive and humorous character. 9.What can WeWalk do at present according to the text? A.Provide fast Internet access.
B.Start conversations with users.
