拓展思考(示例)
Louis Braille was a young inventor. He became blind as a result of an accident when he was three years old. At a school for the blind, he learned to read from books with raised letters. But those letters were confusing and took up too much space. When he was only 15, Braille improved a system of raised dots. His code was simple and successful. Today, blind people around the world still use Braille to read. His passion for solving problems helped millions of people. He showed that even a teenager can change the world.
