I started by reading a passage to him but to my5, he repeated it word by word after hearing it once. He also answered related questions with 90% accuracy. It became clear that Mark could6 and recall information, but only when it was read aloud to him. This wasn't a psychiatric issue — it was a reading7.

I shared my observations with Mark,8 that he wasn't mentally ill but had a small challenge where he couldn't form a mental image of written words. I reassured him that we could fix it together, and that he was, in fact,9 intelligent with an IQ of 180. I asked him to keep this between us for now, as I didn't think the10 or his mother would believe me.

We developed a strategy: Mark would read everything11, creating mental images for the words, which would help him remember them. He also started12 vocabulary from the SAT list, which13 his reading comprehension. His progress was remarkable. Within weeks, Mark was back on track. His confidence grew and he regained14.

But there were still15. Despite his newfound success, his teacher16 to promote him to senior year because he had missed too many days. Mark,17, solved this problem all on his own. Without informing anyone, he arranged a meeting with the school officials himself. He negotiated summer school classes, with the promise that he could continue his senior year18 he passed with a grade over 75. He not only passed but earned an A in every subject.

By the end of the year, Mark was19 his future. He even convinced his psychiatrist to take him off medication. His transformation from a frustrated, defeated student to a confident, self-assured young man was virtually20. His belief in his own abilities had changed everything.

-Thanks. And I now understand the value of diligence.

If you had asked teenage me about exercise, I would have rolled my eyes while holding my untouched gym membership card. Sweating for fun? Unthinkable.

However, everything changed three years ago when life's pressure became unbearable. Eager for relief, I recalled reading about exercise releasing endorphins, a chemical within your body that reduces pain and can make you feel happier. This time, I knew I needed more than willpower — I needed an accountability partner who could hold me accountable for my exercise routine.

The moment I walked into Adria's circuit training studio, her warm smile disarmed me. "Accountability partner" proved not enough to describe this force of nature. Though we quickly became friends, her determination shone through every time I tried canceling sessions. "What's your workout plan this week?" her texts would arrive whenever I skipped two days. Gradually, my baggy sweatshirts tightened around newly toned arms, and genuine laughter started replacing my gloomy sighs.

One rainy Thursday, Adria leaned against the gym mirrors. "I have run solo operations for three years. I need a day off," she sighed. My comforting nod froze when she suddenly locked eyes with me. "You should get certified — maybe start with the American Council on Exercise (ACE) test. You're the only one I'd trust with these keys."

Nervous laughter escaped me. "Me? A trainer?" The idea seemed as ridiculous as teaching rocket science. It was so good that she trusted me but there was no way! I hadn't studied for anything in years, not to mention that a large portion of my "day job" was reading as a full-time editor. Could I really read about fitness in the evenings?

For days following our conversation, every time the thought popped into my head, I heard the words "No way!" Yet her words planted persistent seeds in my mind. I decided to do some research to understand what it would take to be a Group Fitness Instructor. I learned it would take three to six months of reading text, analyzing charts, watching videos and listening to the provided podcasts. Though hesitant, I finally signed up for the ACE course.

After decades of dominating China's high-performance car market with precision engineering, German automakers are losing to Chinese (competitor) that have redefined luxury vehicles as electric, smart, and (afford).

Many new Chinese vehicles resemble those of Germany, like the (incredible) popular Xiaomi SU7, which mimics (模仿) Porsche's Taycan. Xiaomi SU7 can not only be comparable to the Taycan in power and braking, but it also features integrated artificial intelligence can help with parking the car and even greet drivers with their favorite song. Most importantly, it sells for roughly half the price of a Taycan.

Market experts say that advanced software, automatic driving remote-control features have become standard in Chinese electric cars, putting pressure on European automakers who previously used brand strength (promote) their competitiveness. The SU7, for example, comes equipped automatic parking and remote temperature control—features that are winning over consumers. "When choosing my new car, I didn't even consider (purchase) another German car," one customer admitted.

Xiaomi has also been testing its pared-down version SU7 Ultra, which (release) in China in March 2024, on Germany's storied racetrack, the Nurburgring. A few months later, the car set a record for the "fastest four-door sedan," outpacing Porsche's Taycan—an achievement (celebrate) by industry media and car enthusiasts alike.

My beloved niece, Cassy, was diagnosed (诊断) with bone cancer, and her time with us was2. However, she handled those numerous doctor's appointments and hospital stays with a positive attitude that3 everyone around her.

When it was time to tell Cassy that4 were being discontinued, we explained we'd focus on helping her5 any wish over the next several months. She made a "list" of things she wanted to do.6, we were amazed by her positive attitude and her7 of this unfair fate. Her8 were so typical of a teenager that they made us smile when we read them. We had lots of photos9 this last chapter in her life. It was a very special time, and we are10 for those memories.
