Disabled people can do many things well
I’m “disabled.” I can’t walk and I have to use a wheelchair to get around. However, I usually don’t like the word “can’t”. My parents always tell me to try to do things by myself. I can dress myself, get to school by myself, and take care of myself like other people. My parents work, so sometimes I even cook for my family at night.
Many people think that because I can’t walk, I can’t do sports. But there are many sports I can do. And there are many competitions I can be in.
My dream is to compete for China in the Paralympic Games. People can compete in sports events even if they can’t walk, can’t see, or can’t use their arms. There are many different sports for disabled athletes, like wheelchair basketball and wheelchair tennis. I can’t play those sports, but I can go very fast in my wheelchair. I want to compete against oth er people in wheelchairs and win for China! I’m too young to go to the 2008 Olympics, but I think I can compete in 2012!
