If you knew you had only three years left to live, how
would you use your time? It’s a hard question and few of us would even like to
think about it. But 18-year-old Huang Ge has to answer this question and he
says, “I want to thank the people who have helped me.”
At the age of one, Huang’s mother left the family. Six
years later, he was badly ill. He has been using a wheelchair(轮椅)since 9 years old. Doctors said he would only live to
be 18.
After Huang’s story went on TV, hundreds of Chinese
sent money to help him. The boy was so moved (感动)that
he decided to thank everyone of them. But it is not an easy job, because Huang
was too sick even to drive a mosquito(蚊子) away from
his leg. Huang has to be tied(系)to his wheelchair to
stop him from falling out. And the family can only afford a three-wheeled
motorcycle(三轮摩托). Since 2003, the father and son have
traveled 14,000 kilometers to 10 provinces, and thanked more than 30 helpers.
“I am moved by the story of this boy. We need the
courage(勇气) to face death, and we should also feel
the thankfulness for those who help us,” reads an online article on CCTV,com.
