in a variety of sports alongside his healthy friends. Now as a member of University of Wisconsin-Whitewater
wheelchair basketball team, Scott has won four national championships, and has recently been selected to
the Paralympic team for the second time. The 23-year-old college senior owes his achievements to his hard
work and the support of his friends and family, who never allowed him to use his disability as an excuse.
"My mother was always great. Whenever I felt giving up, she had no sympathy. She really helped me build
my independence by not babying me the way other mothers would have," Scott says.
It was Scott's independent nature and strong will, along with his on-the-court skills, that attracted the
attention of America's most influential sports apparel (衣服) company, Nike. Nike was searching for an
athlete with a disability to represent its "Just Do It" trademark. A handful of superstar athletes with disabilities
came to audition for the role, but the company picked Scott to star in the 30-second commercial.
"I think that they were looking for the prettiest face in America, and found me," Scott jokes about the
selection process.
After being picked, Scott flew to California to film the commercial with Oscar-winning documentary
director Errol Morris. The ad gave Scott celebrity (名人) status in the community of disabled athletes. He's
been asked to speak at a number of disability-related events, and feels it's his duty to use the media to draw
attention to those with disabilities. "I've been given a voice, and I want to do whatever I can to break down
the social barriers that are still faced by disabled athletes, and make people realize that they have a very high
athletic level," Scott says.

61._____________
There are a lot of benefits for children to take part in organized sports.Playing organized sports helps children get the exercise they need to stay healthy，and make sure that they have a strong and healthy body throughout their lives.Sports also help children develop and understand skills and strengths that they will need forever.
62. _____________
Children who play organized sports have an increased awareness (意识) of their bodies，and are less likely to do things that will harm them at an early age，such as smoking cigarettes，drinking，or taking drugs.Many sports programs also teach nutrition (营养学) to young children，giving them even more awareness of the things they should do and should not do to their bodies.
63. _____________
Participating in sports can help a child become more confident.As children practice and work to become better at any activity，their confidence level will increase.This newfound confidence will carry over into other things besides sports，including their studies and personal lives.Group activities such as organized sports help children identify with a particular group—their team，which is necessary to the personal and social development of a child.Children who do not feel they are accepted or belong anywhere often experience anxiety and a general lack of confidence.
64. _____________
Group sports teach children that in order to become good at something，they must work toward their goals.This is a very valuable lesson，one that they must carry with them into their adult lives.Sports also teach children that when they do not succeed—losing a game，for example—that they must deal with losing，and move on.Obviously，this is necessary，because as an adult，you must move on after any kind of loss，and work to prevent those things from happening again，whether it is on the field，in your work，or in your personal life.
65. _____________
Children who take part in these kinds of activities learn to communicate and work better with their team players and with adults.Teamwork is a valuable skill for children.Organized sports often are made up of kids who have all kinds of different social and economic backgrounds，which provide the opportunity to make new friends.
