“There,s a mother in PICU(儿童重症监护病房)who wants to talk about a kit she received.”the nurse told me.“Something about it made her cry.”

I’ve been a child-1ife specialist at the Cleveland Clinic Children’s Hospital since 2000.I help families

understand diagnoses and treatment plans and manage the ups and downs that come with caring for a sick child.Tough talks with parents are part of the job,which still makes me feel nervous.

The kits the nurse was talking about were something I had recently introduced to the hospital:Comfort Kits from Guideposts.They were supposed to make a child’s experience here easier,not upsetting.

When I came across the kits at a conference.I fell in love with them.A treasure box of items designed not only to entertain kids,but to comfort and inspire them.There’s a coloring book,a stress ball,a CD of relaxing music,a hairy star named Sparkle,a journal and much more.I really believed these kits would help kids.I wished I hadn’t been mistaken.

At the patient’s room in PICU I saw a little girl,sleeping soundly,surrounded by tubes and machines.My eyes met her mother's.The kit was open on her lap and tears were running down her cheeks.

“I'm Shannon.I manage the Child Life Department.”I said.“I'm sorry if the kit upset you.It’s a new item…”

D.6:00 pm.

The mother shook her head.“This has been one of the worst days of my life.I felt so scared and

alone.Then I was handed this box.I know it’s for my daughter,but it's just the comfort I needed.I wanted to say thank you.”

With that I knew Comfort Kits belonged here.We’ve been using them for almost three years now.Each child who’s admitted to the hospital receives one.Every day I see kids coloring,journaling,playing with Sparkle.

But as this mom showed me Comfort Kits aren’t just for kids.The hope they bring,is felt by the whole family.

“A good book might clarify something you knew little about,transform your world view,or move you in ways you didn’t think possible.The Soul of an Octopus(章鱼)delivers on all three,”the magazine New Scientist commented.

After writing about birds,pigs and tigers,US naturalist Sy Montgomery decided to choose these

many-footed animals as the subject of her latest book,The Soul of an Octopus:a surprising exploration into the wonder of consciousness.

“Here is animal with poisonous liquid like a snake,a beak(喙)like a parrot,and ink like an old-fashioned pen.It can weigh as much as a man and extend as long as a car,yet it can pour its baggy;boneless body through

an opening the size of all orange.It can change color and shape.It has a tongue covered with teeth.It can taste with its skin.”Montgomery explained to the National Geographic on why octopuses inspired her.

What Montgomery is able to show in The Soul of an Octopus is that octopuses are creatures who exhibit personality,intelligence and emotion,despite having nervous systems completely different from our own.She uses different experiments to show that they possess consciousness as well as inpidual personalities.For

example,based on her research,she finds out that Octavia,an octopus caught in the wild,is friendly and good at multi-tasking.And Kali,another octopus,who has been living at the New England Aquarium,is playful and loves exploring.

Montgomery is a good storyteller.Through her study of,and communication with,these extraordinary creatures she shares what she learns from both science and her experiences.Her skillful writing presents facts together with personal description,which makes the book very informative but easy to read.

Back in 1969,it was the Apollo 11 crew who flew to the moon in a spaceship.When U.S.astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin “Buzz”Aldrin stepped foot on the moon,they were the first.Meanwhile,their fellow astronaut Michael Coilins circled the moon in their spaceship,named Columbia.

When Armstrong and Aldrin were done with their walk,they returned to the command module,and back to Earth.That part of the spaceship is on view at the Smithsonian’s Air and Space Museum in

Washington,D.C.But,if you cannot get to Washington,soon you will be able to see Columbia on your computer or your smartphone.

Digital scientists are scanning the inside of the spaceship.They are creating an online model,in three dimensions,or“3 D”.By looking at these photographs,you will be able to see outer space,the way the astronauts did.It will be like sitting in their seats.

Want your very own Columbia spaceship?You will be able to print a 3D copy of Columbia.Experts say anyone can make a life-sized model.But they expect most people to make smaller models of the 320×400 cm(11’X 13’)command module.

Scientists are using special 3D technology to scan the inside.They use cameras on long arms to take the photographs.The thousands of photographs taken will be combined with 50 laser scans.

What would it be like to sit inside Columbia and take a look around?All the images will be loaded into

software that allows you to look around the module on a computer screen.The user will be able to see the Columbia both inside and out.The Smithsonian says that the 3D technology gives the user ways to see things they cannot see at the museum.And it will give information that even the museum curators(馆长)have not seen before.

“With the Command Module,no one has been inside since it came into the collection,”says Adam

Metallo.Smithsonian 3D imaging specialist.“Now the information we capture can give anyone in the world a view of what it looks like inside this incredible piece of history.”
