David        her mother's side, “Are you all right, Mom”       , Susan pulled herself up, “I'm okay, Honey,” she said.
Susan was falling more      since she had trouble walking. Every inch of ice was a       danger for her. “I wish I could do something,” the boy thought. David, too, was having        of his own. The boy had a speech problem, so at school he talked        .
　　One day, David's teacher announced a        homework. "Each of you is going to come up with an        ," she said. This was for "INVENT AMERICA", a national competition to encourage creativity in children.
　　An idea        David one evening. If only his mother's cane didn't slip on the ice. “What if I        your cane to a nail coming out of the bottom” he asked his mother.
　　“        the sharp end would scratch(划破) floors,” Susan said.
　　“No, Mom, I       make it like a ball-point pen. You take your hand off the button and the        returns back up.” Hours later the cane was finished. David and his father        as Susan used it to walk 50 feet about the        . Happily Susan cried out, “It        !”

Azure Warrenfeltz, a 4-year-old girl, is fluent in Japanese and Spanish. She also can   21   bits of French, German, Arabic and Italian, and she soon hopes to learn some Mandarin Chinese.
In today's globalized world, Azure is one of many young American children whose parents insist her   22   include foreign languages.
"It's such a   23   environment now, you never know what you might need," says Azure's mother, Julie Warrenfeltz, who started schooling her daughter in foreign languages when she was 6 weeks old. "She couldn't   24   a violin, she couldn't stand upright, but I wanted her to do   25 ."
Not only is learning a foreign language easier for children than it is for   26 , but children who are exposed to other languages also do better in school. They are more   27   to diversity, says François Thibaut, who runs The Language Workshop for Children, which has nine schools around the East Coast.
Language study for children is based on immersion (沉浸), he says. Kids sing songs and play games to help develop language comprehension skills. When children start learning languages at birth, they have the   28   to learn many languages at once without getting   29   — because, as the brain develops, so too does the ability to separate one   30   from another.
