26、bot-Human Communication: No Longer A ProblemCAt only 9 years old, Lesia Cartelli was badly burnt in a gas explosion at her grandparents house. The burns were so severe that her own grandfather didnt recognize her. Lesia could have remained withdrawn for her whole life. But now, this woman uses her p
27、ainful past to help other burn victims find healing(治愈). “My life got better when I started to look at my life as a gift,” Lesia said.Lesia started Angel Faces, a national nonprofit organization offering week-long supportive retreats(休养所) for adolescent female burn victims.

28、 from 11-19 years of age, provide meetings to help the girls heal emotionally.“Shes like a ball of sunshine,” said Casi Smith, a 17-year-old with burns on her face she received as a baby. “Looking at her, I can see everything shes been through.

30、ir circumstances.All of these women are miracles. They are blessed to have survived horrible accidents most of us cant even imagine. Yet, surviving the incident is just the beginning.

36、hile. If these messages are ignored, the garments will get in touch with a clothing charity and ask to be reused, with an organization automatically sending out donation information. They could be programmed for a public sale where they are sold to whoever offers the highest price on eBay.Academics
