Magic is the performance of tricks. It has been a part of almost every culture in the world.
Magic shows might include a disappearing act, card tricks, or pulling a rabbit out of a hat. But
what could that have to do with health?
Kevin Spencer, an American magician goes beyond just entertaining crowds. He also makesmagic to improve the lives of people with disabilities.
What made him change the focus of his work was an accident.It took him almost a year to
regain the skills he'd lost as a result of the accident and this made him think about using magic
tricks as a tool for healing. So Spencer started conducting workshops all over the world. He
teaches magic tricks to children and adults with disabilities.
Mr. Spencer says magic therapy (疗法) may seem nontraditional. But many skills needed to
perform a good magic trick are used in traditional forms of therapy － physical movement,
thinking, understanding and social skills are all there. And that social connection with other people
can also help people feel better about themselves and increase their confidence.
Liam Shannon is an example. Liam has a brain disorder that can make learning and
connecting with people difficult. People with severe brain disorder may also have trouble
understanding complex emotions. The 10yearold boy said after he learned a few simple tricks, he
felt many different emotions. “It made me feel happy and proud. It was great！” Liam said.
Kevin Spencer says seeing lads like Liam come alive is better than all the applause in the
world. “We can be on a stage and get the applause of thousands of people, but that is nothing
compared to the smile that comes across a kid's face and when they say ‘Look! I did it! and it's
like，’ yeah, you did！”．
He says he plans to spend more time working with people with disabilities.

语法填空——非谓语动词
非谓语动词之间区分步骤实例(2)
例题 You can imagine how terribly shy I was with so many eyes________ (fix) upon me.
