The Japanese Nintendo Company actually started in 1889. Back then, computers and computer games were a long way off; however, the company's first product, handmade playing cards, was very popular.

Nintendo soon gained control of the market in playing cards after beginning to produce plastic cards in 1953. But a 1956 trip to the U．S. convinced the CEO there wasn't much room for growth in that market, so he began experimenting with other projects, including toy-making. Sure enough, the card market began its decline (衰退) around 1962, and the company fought to stay in business.

A wise decision in 1965 to employ Gunpei Yokoi who enjoyed inventing mechanical toys helped turn things around for Nintendo. After the company produced and marketed Gunpei Yokoi's extending toy hand, Ultra Hand, they sold over one million units within the first year. Yokoi went on to create many electronic toys that helped the company clear its debt and begin making money again.

When video games were popular in the 1970s, Nintendo introduced their first arcade game (街机游戏) in 1975, EVRRace. Nintendo's next two games, DonkeyKong in 1981 and SuperMarioBrothers in 1985, became legendary (名扬四海的). Success struck again in 1989 with another Yokoi creation, Game Boy, which still ranks as the all-time best-selling portable game system. Nintendo 64 was launched (推出) in 1996, selling nearly 33 million units, and receiving Time magazine's 1996 Machine of the Year award.

In 2006, the company launched its Wii console, which became another huge success.Nintendo had successfully got into a new market: children and people who had never played video games before.

Over the years, the company has faced growing competition, causing doubtful remarks (评论) from some about Nintendo's future. But in January, the company announced plans to begin developing a mystery device that will be launched in 2016. Nintendo is still looking toward the future, making everyone wonder what amazing devices the company will create in the next 126 years.

Each year, millions of visitors crowd into our many national parks. With their unmatched beauty, the national parks offer people a place to go to restore (恢复) their energy. The parks we enjoy today, however, might not be around without the past efforts of a few people who supported an idea to protect the natural beauty of our country.

One of these people was the naturalist John Muir. In 1867, on his way west to San Francisco, John Muir walked through Yosemite and quickly recognized its incomparable beauty. Muir devoted himself to learning as much about the wilderness (荒原) as he could. Then, he would pass this learning on to others in many articles he wrote describing the beauty of the area. In order to protect Yosemite from damage, Muir became the voice behind a government bill that would create Yosemite National Park. Soon other bills would follow, and Muir would continue his fight to make Americans understand the importance of protecting the wild. In 1901, Muir wrote a book about the national parks, which caught the attention of people all over the
