a place smaller than a city

l've been on this island for three days I was flying a kite in the park when a

strong wind picked me up I glided over rooftops, all the way over my town,

then over the whole country and out to sea.

I saw sea monsters with seagulls sitting on their noses I saw schools of fish

and waves bigger than houses I didn't see any way to get down My hand got

tired from holding onto my kite string, but I held on until I saw an island I let go

of the string and fell into the leaves of a tall palm tree Then I grabbed a

and climbed down the tree

For the past three days, I've slept under palm leaves, buried my legs in the

sand, and counted two hundred and four different birds Just this morning I saw

a black dot in the distance il has grown bigger as the sun has risen in the sky.

I can see now that it's a boat coming straight for this island l'll be happy to be

From 1892 until 1954 twelve million people passed through Ellis lsland

to begin a new life in the U.S.A Most of these people had traveled

across the Atlantic Ocean from Europe When they arrived they needed

to sign their names, be interviewed, and pass a health test During the

health test the newcomers were checked for disease by having them

climb some stairs

During World War ll (1939-1945), Ellis

People who were sick or injured were checked further They were put in the hospital onEllis lsland or sent back Other people who were criminals, or who didn't have working skills

were also sent home People called Ellis lsland "The lsland of Tears, " because some

people weren't allowed into the U.S.A However, only 2o/o of people were turned away

Most people recharge their cell phones from the power socket in their house

Some people recharge their phone in their car But what happens if you don't

have a car, and you don't have electricity at home?

Motorola's boss, Ed Zander, thought about that very same problem Then he

asked his company's engineers to invent a bicycle-powered cell phone

recharging system! Mr Zander showed the system to a large audience at the

Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, in January 2008

Motorola believes that the bicycle cell phone charger will be especially useful

in China A lot of people ride bicycles and a lot of people are buying cell

phones there However, this invention is not only for the Chinese Mr Zander

also hopes to sell the charger to countries that have a poor electricity supply

For example, farmers in Senegal use cell phones to check on crop prices, and

health workers in South Africa use their phones to check patient records

Mr Zander didn't mention students who ride their bicycles to school, but t&eey

students will ride an extra kilometer so they

can text their friends in class!
