　　He Junquan is a Chinese swimmer and has won many Paralympic(残奥会)gold medals．Born in Jingmen, Hubei province, He Junquan was a healthy boy．But one day at the age of three, he climbed up to the high－voltage electricity(高压线)box and lost both of his arms forever．He became a disabled boy!

　　From then on he learnt to do everything with his feet：writing, eating, getting dressed and taking things．Seeing other pupils swimming in the river, he jumped in, too．Without arms, he suffered a lot in the river at the beginning．But he finally learnt to balance himself in water and could swim much faster than the other pupils．Once he even saved a little boy who fell into the water and couldn't swim．His father was so happy to see that this son had a talent in swimming．

　　In 1995, He Junquan became a real swimmer．He practices swimming for more than four hours every day．Since 1996, he has won more than twelve gold medals of the world class．At the 2008 Summer Paralympics, he won a silver medal．Reporting on the competition at the 2008 Games, Will Swanton of the Sydney Morning Herald wrote：

　　“ The Water Cube has been a sight for sore(气愤的)eyes．China's He Junquan, with no arms, was leading the 50m backstroke(仰泳)final．…He came to the finish－ and had to crash into the wall with his head．As he slowed down to lessen(减少)the impact(撞击力), Brazilian Daniel Dias hit the wall first with a hand．You’ve never heard a silence like it．”

　　Saturday morning came, and everything was bright and fresh．Every boy in town was happy, 　　1　　 Tom Sawyer．

　　Tom stood on the sidewalk 　　2　　 a bucket of white paint and a brush with a long handle in his hands．He looked at the fence that his aunt had told him 　　3　　 and felt very 　　4　　．It was thirty yards long and three yards high! He dipped his brush in the paint and painted a corner of the fence．Then he stood back and 　　5　　．The section that was painted was so small, and the 　　6　　 section was so big! He sat 　　7　　 a tree to have a rest．

　　He began to think of all the games 　　8　　 he had planned for the day．Soon the boys who were free would come along and make fun of him．But just then, he had a wonderful idea．He picked up his brush and went back to work．

　　Ben Rogers came along the road, 　　9　　 happily and carrying an apple．He stopped and looked at Tom．Tom went on painting and 　　10　　 Ben．

　　‘I'm going swimming,’said Ben．‘Do you want to go swimming, Tom? But I guess you can't．You have to stay and work, 　　11　　 you?’

　　Tom went on painting．‘Work?’he said．‘This isn't work．I'm enjoying myself．Does a boy get a chance to paint a fence like this every day?’

　　Ben thought about this．Tom went on painting, carefully, Sometimes he stopped, stood back to look at the fence, and then added a bit more paint in just the right place．Ben was watching Tom's every move．He was getting more and more interested．

　　After a while, he said,‘Tom, will you let me do some painting?’

　　Tom thought about it, and said,‘No, Ben, I can't．You see, Aunt Polly wants it to be done properly．I'm the only one who can do it right．’

　　‘Oh, please, Tom,’　　12　　 Ben．‘I can do it．I'll be 　　13　　 careful．Just let me try．I'll give you half of my apple．I'll give you all of it!’

　　‘Well, all right, Ben,’said Tom．‘But you must be careful．’

　　He gave Ben his brush with worry on his face but joy in his heart．He sat down again under the tree, and started to eat the apple that Ben had given him．

　　All day, boys came to make fun, but they ended up 　　14　　 to paint．When Ben got tired, Billy Fisher was waiting．He gave Tom a kite 　　15　　 a chance to paint．Then Johnny Miller offered him twelve marbles, and so on．

　　By late afternoon Tom had gained all sorts of toys, and the fence had gained three coats of paint．Later Aunt Polly came to look at Tom's work．She was so pleased when she saw the painted fence that she gave Tom a large cake!
