As more summer days came, my dad was able to rent us a dusty old house by the side of the road near our old house. As we moved in, I watched as family, friends, and 28 people in our community donated(捐赠) 29 they could to help us get back on our feet. There were more 30 , furniture, food, money, and even some books for me to read.

Bill can see well. But he cannot recognize(认出) the faces he sees—not even his own mother. He tells his experience. “Once, at midday, I met my mother while walking down the street. I did not recognize her. We walked towards each other. We passed within a meter of each other. The sidewalk was not busy. The only way I know this happened is I was told about it that night. She was not happy about this incident. And she has never forgiven(原谅) me for it!”
Bill has face blindness(盲). For most people, this situation can be hard to understand. But face blindness may be more common than you think.
So, how does a person get face blindness Well, there are two ways. Some people with face blindness are born with the ability to recognize. But then, their brains are badly hurt. Over thirty years ago, Lincoln Holmes was in a car accident. The accident damaged(损害) his brain. He can still do everything just like before—walk, talk, and work. But since the accident, Lincoln can no longer recognize faces. He cannot even recognize people he knew after the accident happened.
In the past, doctors thought that brain damage was the only way to get face blindness. However, scientists now believe that the most common way people get face blindness is from their parents—they inherit it! Recent studies suggest that face blindness stays in families.
But there are not any treatments(治疗) for face blindness at present.

The world’s oldest message bottle(漂流瓶) has been found on a beach in Western Australia by a couple who thought it might look good on a bookshelf.
Tonya Illman found the 132-year-old bottle in the sand near Wedge Island in January. Her husband, Kym Illman, told reporters she first thought it was rubbish, but picked it up because it had clear words and would be at home on their bookshelf.

His finding was confirmed(证实) by scientists of Germany. Of the thousands of thrown bottles, 662 other messages from the same German experiment have been found. The most recent was found in 1934.
