At the beginning f Grade Tw, I jined the crss-cuntry running team in ur schl.
When I came t the first practice, I was filled with ptimism. But as the distance we ran in each practice gradually increased frm three t fur, t six miles, I realized with surprise that n matter hw hard I tried, I wasn’t able t run as fast as thers. In fact, I was ne f the slwest n the team.

Then we had ur first crss-cuntry meet.

But then I heard my caches shuting my name frm the tp f the hill. I felt cnfused and embarrassed; why were they cheering fr me? I was running terribly! As I tried my best t finish the race, I realized that my caches didn’t care hw fast I ran. Neither did my teammates. During the rest f the seasn, they were always n the sidelines f every race, cheering fr me just as ludly as they’d cheered fr the frnt runner.
Frm then n, I began t put my effrt int supprting my teammates instead f fcusing n my wn perfrmance. In that way, I celebrated my teammates’ victries as if they were my wn; I felt their pain and exhaustin as if they were my wn.

Web-building spiders, which build blindly using nly the sense f tuch, have attracted humans fr centuries."The first step t understand that is t study the behavirs and skills invlved, " said Andrew Grdus, a Jhns Hpkins behaviral bilgist. "But until nw it has never been dne, mainly because f the challenge f detecting and recrding the actins."
His team studied a spider native t the Western United States. T bserve the spiders during their nighttime web-building wrk, the lab designed a stage with infrared(红外线的)cameras and infrared lights. They mnitred and recrded six spiders every night and tracked millins f individual leg actins. "Even if yu recrd it, there are a lt f legs t track, " said lead authr Abel Crver. "It's just t much t g thrugh every frame(帧)and mark the leg pints by hand s we trained machine visin sftware t detect the actins f the spider, frame by frame, s that we culd recrd everything the legs did t build an entire web."
They fund that web-making behavirs were s similar acrss spiders that the researchers were able t predict the part f a web a spider was wrking n just frm seeing the psitin f the legs."Even if the final structure is a little different, the rules they use t build the web are the same, "Grdus said, "which cnfirms the rules are in their brains.
Future wrk fr the lab includes experiments with drugs t determine which circuits (回路) in the spider's brain are respnsible fr the varius stages f web-building. Crver said, "The wrk culd help us understand larger brain systems, including humans'."

As it was grwing, its wings started grwing lng, but my family was t pssessive (占有欲强的) and caring twards Mitthu that they trimmed (修剪) its wings. They said if it flew, it wuldn’t be able t survive utside.
As time went by, we grew, s did had by nw started talking quite a was amazed by the way my aunt cared fr it. She fed it anything and everything they had befre eating. Mitthu was never kept in a cage frm the is still nt kept in a eage... at first its wings were trimmed t prtect nw as it has grwn quite a lt, even its wings are nt trimmed...
I smetimes wnder, it has the whle sky t fly, it is neither in a cage nr its wings are trimmed, then why isn’t it flying at all? Maybe it is nw quite attached t us and desn’t want t leave us, r maybe it desn’t want t leave this cmfrtable life and g away and face the hard reality f life. The answer may be anything, depending n hw we view the situatin.
But as I grew lder, I realized that the life f Mitthu is nt really very different frm that f mine. I was cared t and thus was prtected frm really getting alng with utside wrld. I made my huse my wrld, just as it was taught t me. I guess s did Mitthu. The cmfrt f my hpe became, and I guess Mitthu’s as well, the invisible chain that never actually will let us fly.
