Nick Vujicic was born with no arms or legs, but the brave 32-year-old man, plays football and golf, swims, and surfs. Nick has a small foot on his left side, which helps him balance and enables him to kick. He uses his one foot to type, write with a pen and pick things up between his toes.

“I call it my chicken drumstick（鸡腿）,” joked Nick, “I'd be lost without it. When I get in the water I float because 80 per cent of my body is lungs and my drumstick acts as a propeller.”

When Nick was born his father was so shocked he left the hospital room to vomit. His distraught mother couldn't bring herself to hold him until he was four months old.

“It was so hard for them, but right from the start they did their best to make me independent. My dad put me in the water at 18 months and gave me the courage to learn how to swim. ” said Nick.

Throughout his childhood Nick dealt with the typical challenges. At the age of seven, Nick tried out some specially designed electronic arms and legs, in hope that he would be more like the other kids. During the short trial period of the electronic arms and legs, Nick realized that even with them, he was still unlike his peers at school, and they turned out to be much too heavy for Nick to operate, affecting his flexibility quite significantly.

“When I was 13 I read a newspaper article about a disabled man who had managed to achieve great things and help others,” said Nick, “I realized why God had made us like this － to give hope to others. It was so inspirational to me that I decided to use my life to encourage others and decided to be thankful for what I do have, not get angry about what I don't.”

“I tell people to keep on getting up when they fall and to always love themselves,” he said. “If I can encourage just one person then my job in this life is done.” By now, he has visited 35 different countries, touring the world as a motivational speaker.

1. What makes it possible for Nick to swim in the water?

A. His small size.　 B. His small foot.

C. His light weight. D. His big lungs.

2.The underlined word “distraught” in paragraph 4 probably means _____.

A. cold-blooded 　　　 B. bad-tempered

C. really crazy 　　 D. extremely upset

3.Nick abandoned the electronic arms and legs because ________.

A. his family couldn’t afford them

B. his classmates didn’t like them

C. they were too heavy to handle

D. they affected his appearance

4.Which of the following statements is true?

A. Nick’s parents were very strict with him.

B. Nick’s family accepted his disability at his birth.

C. Nick’s mother was to blame for his disability.

D. Nick learned to be independent at a young age.

Aerial (空中的）performer Jennifer Bricker was born without legs, but she never let it stop her.

Wrapped in a loop (圈）of red silk hung from the ceiling, Jennifer Bricker climbs and twists to the music. Her head hangs down and her strong arms let go as she balances on her back, high above the ground — a move that is all the more daring because she has no legs.

Jennifer was a few months old when she was adopted by Sharon and Gerald Bricker. She had big brown eyes, a bright smile, and huge amounts of energy. When a doctor advised her adoptive parents to carry her around in a kind of bucket (桶)，they refused.

Jennifer soon learned to walk and run on her hands and bottom, and grew up fearlessly climbing trees and bouncing on the trampoline (蹦床）with her three older brothers.“My parents didn’t treat me differently so I didn’t grasp the concept that I was different .1 knew I didn't have legs but that wasn’t stopping me from doing the things I wanted to do.”

At the age of three she was fitted with artificial legs, but she never really took to them she moved more freely without them.

In 1996 the Olympic Games took place in Atlanta. Jennifer loved to watch the women's gymnastics team, and especially adored the 14-year-old Dominique Moceanu who competed for the US. When Moceanu and the women’s team won the gold, Jennifer decided she was going to be a gymnast, too. She took up power tumbling, which involves performing floor exercises down a runway. But Jennifer did not want any allowances to be made for her disability.

At the age of 10 she took part in the Junior Olympics and by age 11 she was the tumbling champion for the state of Illinois.

Jennifer now travels the world as an inspirational speaker and acts as an aerial performer.

1.What do we know about Jennifer Bricker?

B. She was carried in a bucket as a baby.

C. She was brought up as a normal child.

D. She lost her legs when she was adopted.

A. Because she knew that she was different from others.

B. Because she was greatly influenced by Dominique Moceanu.

C. Because she was eager to participate in the Junior Olympics.

D. Because she wanted to make allowances for her disability.
