attendant (乘务员) to ask for a blanket,places her purple backpack under the seat in front of her and
fastens her seat belt. Guo has just spent her summer vacation with a cousin in Beijing and is re-turning
home for the new school term. She is among a growing number of children, aged between 5and 12,
traveling on their own by air during their school holidays. Like Guo , many children make visits to see

High-climbing kid raises hopes

Michael McCarthy climbed to the top of the Willis Tower not long ago. The Tower stands 1451 feet (442 meters) tall, the highest building in the US.   

As he got to the last step, McCarthy almost fell down, but that didn’t stop him. The 14-year-old boy finally finished climbing the 2,109 steps and arrived at the top, where he enjoyed the cheers from the crowd.   

“I just want to show people that if a kid with no legs can do it, anyone can do it,” McCarthy said.   

McCarthy, who was born without legs, has to wear prosthetic legs(假肢)and use a set of crutches(拐杖)to walk. But McCarthy has a strong heart. He believes nothing can stop him from achieving his success.   

He has been in a karate(空手道)school since he was four years old. When he decided to climb the Willis Tower, his karate teacher, Jeff Kohn, was moved and offered to help train him. They spent more than 10 hours practicing climbing stairs and keeping balance with the prostheses and crutches on the steps every day. “It seems that he never knows what tiredness is. Sometimes, I was so tired that I asked him to call it a day,” said Kohn. “But he said he was still full of energy and wanted more exercise.”   

Kohn was with McCarthy for the climb. “I saw the last 10 floors — he went faster,” said Kohn. “He’s the most hard-working athlete I’ve ever trained.”   

McCarthy said he was proud of himself and that the Tower now holds special meaning. “When I’m older, I’ll point to the building and say ‘Look at this building I climbed,” he said.
