When I was born, my doctor told my mother that there was something wrong with my 17 .  They were too soft to be able to walk. Although the news was bad, my mother didn't become  18 . She didn't believe what the doctor said  19 started to look for other ways.
My mother kept looking for other doctors for me, and finally she  20 . The doctor and his team in the hospital did   21 they could to help me.

Matt's hobby was collecting stamps. He had stamps from many countries, like America, Egypt and China. On his birthday, can you guess what people gave him? That's right——stamps.
Matt's favorite stamps came from France. He had almost every stamp from 1954 to 2003 except one. That was a 1974 special edition (版). It was very hard to find.
He looked for it everywhere. He asked his friends and relatives to help him. But nobody could find the stamp. It made Matt very sad.
"Don't worry," his father said to him. "You'll find it one day."
"I hope so," Matt said.
"Be patient (耐心的),"his father said. "Don't give up."
Besides collecting stamps, Matt liked writing. He had a pen friend in France. They wrote to each other every month. Matt's pen friend, Philip, gave him a big, green stamp. It looked old. When Matt received the letter, he was very surprised. On the envelope, he looked closely at the stamp. It was the 1974 special edition stamp. Matt was so happy! He told his sister, his mother and his father.
"You see," his father said, "You did find your stamp. So, you see, it's good to have two things in life."
"What are they?" Matt asked.
“Friends and patience (耐心).” he answered.

Have successful people ever felt sad? Do they have any "secrets" to success? The answers to these questions can be found in US president Barack Obama’s "back to school" speech. Here is a small part of his speech.
I know that sometimes, after watching TV, you may feel that you can be rich and successful without any hard work--that your ticket to success is through rapping (饶舌音乐) or basketball or being a TV star. But when chances come, you may not succeed.
The truth is, being successful is hard. And you may not succeed at everything the first time you try. That’s OK. Some of the most successful people in the world have had the most failures. JK Rowling’s first Harry Potter book was rejected(退稿)12 times before it finally came out. Michael Jordan lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots during his career (职业生涯). But he once said, "I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed."
These people succeeded because they understand that you can’t let your failures beat you--you have to let them teach you. You have to let them show you what to do differently next time.
No one’s born being good at things. You become good at things through hard work. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it.
And even when you’re struggling(挣扎), even when you’re discouraged(泄气), and you feel like other people have given up on you--don’t ever give up on yourself. Because when you give up on yourself, you give up on your country.
【小题1】Why does Barack Obama talk about JK Rowling and Michael Jordan in the second paragraph?

A.To show that these two famous persons are different.
B.To show that writing and sports are difficult skills.
C.To show that the two persons were treated unfairly.
D.To show that being successful is hard.
【小题2】Barack Obama believes ____________ in his speech.
A.you can be rich and successful without any hard work
B.you may succeed at everything the first time you try
C.you can’t let your failures beat you
D.you shouldn’t ask other people for help
【小题3】What does the underlined sentence mean?
A.If you’re discouraged, you should give up on yourself.
B.You should believe in yourself no matter how difficult it is.
C.When you’re struggling, you’ll feel like other people have given up on you.
D.If you are not struggling or discouraged, you can give up on yourself.
【小题4】What’s the best title of this small part of Mr. Obama’s speech?
A.The way to succeedB.Failures can help you
C.Don’t give up on yourselfD.Barack Obama’s success
