Read the short passage on page 1
Do you know how blind people can read?
How do the deaf communicate with each other?
![Page 13: What’re they about? The world of our senses](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022082214/56649efc5503460f94c0f2bd/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

dots which represent numbers and letters.

body language or
sign language.

Picture 1 : What can you see in this picture?

Picture 2: How would you judge the length of the two lines?
We can use a ruler
to measure the two
lines. Or we can
use two pieces of
paper to cover
both ends of the
two lines.
![Page 17: What’re they about? The world of our senses](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022082214/56649efc5503460f94c0f2bd/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Picture 3: How can you prove that the two lines are straight?
We can place a
ruler next to the
line. We can also
use a ruler to draw
more straight lines
which run parallel to
the two lines.
