Question

While I lived in Ireland, part of my college course was to work in the area of children with special needs. I was selected to ____ in a school with children with ____. I had numerous rooms to ____ from. I chose to work in the ____ that was apart from the school. Children ___ 5—16 with severe disabilities. They had no speech and most were in a wheelchair.

The ____ of that room asked if I would work with one girl who had ____ of epilepsy(癫痫症), autism(自闭症), and other brain development disabilities. She was 15 years old. At her school they would think that just being able to zip up(拉上拉链) her own coat was a(n) ____ . I saw more in her. She always wanted to put ____ through the shaped blocks to make a necklace. For the 5 years she was in the school, the teachers always tried to ____ her do all the work. I knew this smart girl could do ____ and so I encouraged her. She had a thumb which she could not move but I ____ her so much to try. She got very ____ most days and sometimes I wanted to quit. ____ after a week, this young girl was able to do ____ she had been wanting to do by herself for so many years. Her teacher cried when she saw what this ____ was able to do with just some encouragement.

People with disabilities should never be ____ that they can't. We are all human and with just some encouragement we can do it. The ____ on that girl's face when she was able to do it herself ___ the world to me. I wish everyone would encourage people rather than telling them they can't ____ doing it for them.
