To personal trainer Sammy Callari,13-year-old Parker Seward is more than a client(客戶).He's his "little brother".Over the past year,the pair have bonded.They play basketball together,share meals and dance to hip-hop like no one's watching.
   The trainer was asked to work with the 13-year-old boy,who has Down syndrome(唐氏癥),because his coworker who dealt with the boy was out of town last spring.Callari had never worked with someone with a disability before.He was anxious the first day he met Parker.But Parker's big smile and cheery introduction immediately put him at ease.He reminded Callari of himself when he was a teenager.Like Parker,Callari has also faced his fair share of challenges over the years.
   As a high schooler,Callari described himself as being the weak kid.When it came to sports,he was always overlooked.His dream of playing baseball in college quickly faded away.When he went to college,Callari turned to a new sport.His younger brother trained him to become a boxer.Callari participated in five matches.Out of four of those fights he was the underdog,and he won three times. "I know how it feels," Callari said. "Society tells you that you can't do this,you can't do that." When it comes to Parker,Callari refuses to accept the word "can't".
   The friends meet twice a week to train.They bike,box,run and work on their core with push-ups.Parker has a short attention span,so it's Callari's job to keep him focused. "If Parker can do it,if he's having fun,even with his frustration,then people will ask,"Why can't I do that?" Callari said. "That's the whole task right now."
   Callari recalls Parker's mom once thanking him for taking a "chance" on her son.Callari told her he never viewed it that way.Parker may be the student,but Callari says he's also the one who's learning.

  • 3.I remember my math teacher Mr.Young very well.He stood out because the kids made fun of him.He was missing one of his fingers,and always pointed at students with his middle finger.
       I was not very good at English and math.No matter how hard I tried,I just could not figure out why I did not understand what all the other kids found so easy to learn.
       One day,I was told that if I got one more E on my report card,I would be taken to the "big prison for kids".
       I tried really hard for weeks.I just couldn't understand how to make different parts of members into whole things.
       The day before report cards were to come out,I knew that Mr.Young would give me an E,just like he always did.
       I went to Mr.Young and told him that the orphanage (孤兒院) was going to send me to the big prison if I got another E on my report card.He told me there was nothing he could do;it would be unfair to the other kids if he gave me a better grade than I had actually earned.
       I smiled at him and said, "Mr.Young,do you know how the kids make fun of you because you're missing your finger?" He looked at me,moved his mouth to one side and said nothing.
       "They shouldn't do that to you because you can't help not having a finger,Mr.Young.Just like I can't help not being able to learn numbers and stuff like that." I said.
       The next day,when I got my report card,I tucked it into one of my books.While on the school bus,I opened it:Geography,B+;Mechanical Drawing,C-;English,D-;History,C-;Gym,B+;Art,C;Math,D-.
       That math grade was the most favorite one I ever received.Because I knew that someone in the world finally understood what it was like for me to be missing a finger inside my head.

    (1)Where may the boy live according to the passage?

    A.In an orphanage.
    B.In a big prison.

    (2)What grade should the boy have got in the math test this time?

    A.D-
    B.E
    C.D
    D.B+
    (3)The underlined word "tucked" in the passage most probably means "
    ".
    A.stuck
    B.listed
    C.copied
    D.hid
    (4)The reason why the boy remembers Mr.Young is that
    .
    A.he missed one of his fingers
    B.he treated his students very well
    C.he understood the boy
    D.he taught his students in a special way
