Dear Mr. Know,

My 13-year-old son was in an accident several days ago. His doctors say he has no chance of seeing again. I have no experience with the blind (盲的). I want to know how he may behave in the future. I want to know everything I can to help him. Please help!

Mary

Dear Mary,

My son, Trey, who is nine years old, also lost his vision (視力) suddenly. I think one of the most important things for you to do is to find other blind kids of your son’s age in your area. He will need someone to talk to that understands his situation and can give him some advice. Sometimes, other kids treat your son differently, and it takes time, experience, and patience to learn the best ways of dealing with this. But if your son had another successful, blind teenager to talk to, that person could tell him how they dealt with the same situations. Also, often talk to the doctor so that they can show your son how to get around safely. Learning to use assistant technology(輔助技術(shù)) and Braille(盲人用的點字法) are also extremely important. Where I live, we have a place called Envision that offers these services. Check around for something similar in your area. I hope I have been of some help.

Music is different from songs. Songs express feelings with lyrics, but music with tones (音調(diào)). Unlike songs, music tones in themselves have no specific meanings. Different people may get different things from the same musical performance. Though some music works are difficult to understand, people need music in their daily life because it brings fun to them. Different people like different music: some love classical music, and others take pleasure in pop music. Most young people like pop music.

Pop music began in the USA and became popular around the world during the 1950s and 60s. The best-known early kind of pop music was “rock and roll”. Pop music has taken the place of native music in many parts of the world. It has caused the number of people for “jazz” music to become much smaller than in the 1950s and earlier and it has now begun to become the most popular. Much pop music is without artistic value (價值), but the works of some pop singers such as the Beatles, Bob Dylan, the groups like Pink Floyd and Crosby are excellent. And there is still great interest in it today. Pop music concerts and festivals are held all over the world.
