Last week,all the teachers and students of our school watched a special performance by some disabled people.The first program was a dance named “The light of life”.To my surprise,all the dancers had lost one of their legs.As they were performing,I could see how they had to face so many difficulties.However,they showed us many wonderful programs.From these programs,I could see how lively their minds were.
The two persons who came out next shocked us all.The first one was a singer.He was very young but unfortunately he had lost both of his hands in a big fire.The song he brought us was “Late Autumn” and he sang it in such a low and sweet voice.Though it was warm spring, I felt a little cold when I heard the song as if it was really late autumn.“How much love and feeling is hidden in my heart? I wish to hold your hands again.” Hearing this,I couldn’t keep back my tears.
The other one was also a young man.He lost both of his arms when he was six.From then on,his feet became his “hands”.However,he could manage a number of things with his feet.What moved us most was his feet writing.The two words “Flying High” expressed his wishes.
“If your wings are gone,your heart can still fly,” said Zhang Haidi,a disabled writer.
In the world,there are many disabled people,yet most of them don't give in.They have strong wishes and beautiful dreams.Just as Zhang Haidi said they could fly.
Disability doesn't mean complete failure.Once you try hard,miracles(奇迹)will happen sooner or later.I believe where there is a will,there is a way.

Weekends mean hanging out, snacking or just watching horror movies. So look over our picks of some scariest ones.
The Exorcist

Success is often measured by the ability to overcome adversity(逆境). But it is often the belief of others that gives us the courage to try.
J. K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter book series, began writing at age 6. In her biography(传记), she remembers with great fondness when her good friend-Sean became the first person to encourage her and help her build the confidence that one day she would be a very good writer.
“He was the first person with whom I really discussed my serious ambition(志向) to be a writer. He was also the only person who thought I was bound to(注定)be a success at it, which meant much more to me than I ever told him at the time.”
Though there were many difficulties, Rowling continued her writing, particularly fantasy stories. But it wasn’t until l990 that she first came up with the idea about Harry Potter. As she recalls(回忆), it was on a long train journey from London to Manchester that “the idea of Harry Potter simply fell into my head. To my great disappointment, I didn’t have a pen with me, and I was too shy to ask anybody if I could borrow one. I think, now, that this was probably a good thing, because I simply sat and thought, for four (delayed train) hours, and all the details came up in my brain, and this thin, black-haired, bespectacled(戴眼镜的)boy who didn't know he was a wizard became more and more real to me.”
That same year, her mother died after a ten-year fight with serious diseases, which deeply affected her writing. She went on to marry and had a daughter, but separated from her husband shortly afterwards.
During this time, Rowling was diagnosed with depression(诊断患有抑郁症). Unemployed, she finished her first novel in area cafes, where she could get her daughter to fall asleep. After being refused by l2 publishing houses, the first Harry Potter novel was sold to a small British publishing house.
Now with seven books that have sold nearly 400 million copies in 64 languages, J. K. Rowling is the highest earning novelist in history. And it all began with her friend’s encouragement as well as her ambition to write.
1. Who believed J. K. Rowling was to be a good writer?
A.Her friend Sean. B.Her mother.
C.Her daughter. D.Her husband.
2.Rowling first came up with the idea about Harry Potter________.
A.at the age of 6 B.on a train journey
C.after her mother’s death D.in her secondary school
3.She felt disappointed on the train because_________.
A.her train was delayed for four hours
B.she didn’t have a pen with her
C.her mind suddenly went blank
D.no one would offer her help
4.It can be concluded from Paragraph 5 and 6 that Rowling is_________.
A.open-minded B.warm-hearted
C.good-natured D.strong-willed
5.The text mainly tells us_________.
A.adversity makes a good novelist
B.the courage to try is a special ability
C.you can have a wonderful idea everywhere
D.encouragement helps one succeed

“NOW I just don't believe that." Surely all of us, at some point, have watched a movie and thought: It's simply badly researched, or, the makers must think we're idiots (白痴).
Recently, the British newspaper The Daily Telegraph ran a humorous piece on unconvincing(不让人信服的) tech moments from some top movies. Let's see what all the fuss (激动) is about.
Telegraph writer Tom Chiver's first example is from the end-of-the-world movie Independence Day, in which a character comes up with a virus capable of destroying Windows, the computer system the alien spacecraft uses. “It's a good thing they didn't have Norton Antivirus,” jokes Chivers.
It's just one case of a movie that takes a lot of license with its science. Another one Chivers mentions is from Star Wars, where glowing beams (闪亮的光束) of light traveling through space look very impressive. The problem is that in space there are no air particles (粒子) for the light to reflect off. In reality, they'd be invisible, which wouldn't look so cool on the big screen.
Chiver's second piece of Star Wars nonsense is the sound the fighters make in the movies: “the bellow (咆哮) of an elephant mixed with a car driving on a wet road”. But sound needs a medium (介质) to travel through, like air. In space, there wouldn't actually be any sound at all.
Few people would deny that the mind-bending Matrix films make for great viewing, but for Chivers, the science in the movies is a little silly.
He comments “…the film is based on the idea that humans are kept alive as electricity generator (发电机). This is not just unlikely – it's fundamentally impossible. They would need more energy to stay alive than they would produce. It's like saying you'll power your car with batteries, and keep the batteries charged by running a dynamo (发电机) from the wheels.”
And finally: as Chivers points out, DNA is not replaceable. But this bit of elementary genetics (遗传学) passed the makers of the 2002 Bond film Die Another Day by. In the film the villain (坏人) has “gene therapy (疗法)” to change his appearance and his DNA, which is completely impossible.
1.The following are all movies mentioned in the article except _______.
A. Die Another Day. B. Matrix C. Star War D. Norton Antivirus
2.Chivers uses the car as an example to show that _______.
A. cars can’t be powered by batteries
B. humans consume more power that they could have made
C. the villain has “gene therapy” to change his appearance and his DNA
D. it would take so much power to keep humans alive by electricity generator that it’s hardly possible
3.Which of the following is a scientific fact?
A. No virus can destroy Windows.
B. Light can be reflected with the help of air particles.
C. DNA is replaceable as long as there is enough energy.
D. We can design a car powered with batteries which are charged from the wheels.
4.What kind of people Chivers may be?
A. Humorous. B. Brave. C. Sensitive. D. Careless.
5.Chivers probably writes the article in order to _______.
A. persuade people not to watch some silly movies
B. criticize movie makers’ carelessness
C. provide readers with something to read for fun
D. educate the public on some basic scientific knowledge
