High-climbing kid raises hopes

  Michael McCarthy climbed to the top of the Willis Tower not long ago.The Tower stands 1451 feet(442 meters)tall, the highest building in the US.

  As he got to the last step, McCarthy almost fell down, but that didn't stop him.The 14-year-old boy finally finished climbing the 2,109 steps and arrived at the top, where he enjoyed the cheers from the crowd.

  “I just want to show people that if a kid with no legs can do it, anyone can do it, ”McCarthy said.

  McCarthy, who was born without legs, has to wear prosthetic legs(假肢)and use a set of crutches(拐杖)to walk.But McCarthy has a strong heart.He believes nothing can stop him from achieving his success.

  He has been in a karate(空手道)school since he was four years old.When he decided to climb the Willis Tower, his karate teacher, Jeff Kohn, was moved and offered to help train him.They spent more than 10 hours practicing climbing stairs and keeping balance with the prostheses and crutches on the steps every day.“It seems that he never knows what tiredness is.Sometimes, I was so tired that I asked him to call it a day, ”said Kohn.“But he said he was still full of energy and wanted more exercise.”

  Kohn was with McCarthy for the climb.“I saw the last 10 floors-he went faster, ” said Kohn.“He's the most hard-working athlete I've ever trained.”

  McCarthy said he was proud of himself and that the Tower now holds special meaning.“When I'm older, I'll point to the building and say ‘Look at this building I climbed’.”he said.

请阅读下面这篇文章,完成下面表格。
I am Jay from Zhuhai Sunshine Middle School. Recently, we carried out a survey on who we prefer to share worries with. We got different answers.
   Acording to the chart, those who would like to share their worries with their classmates and friends account for about 71%. It is mainly because they believe that if people are at the same age, they are easy to communicate and understand each other better.
  About 22% of the students said they would like to share worries with their teachers and parents. According to them, adults are rich in experience, and that they can handle their problems easily. The rest prefer to keep worries to themselves. As for them, it’s a struggle to get along well with others, some of them said they didn’t want to trust anyone.
  As far as I am concerned, I am willing to share worries with my best friends because they’re always kind and understanding. However, if I meet with some serious problems, I’ll be likely to ask my parents and teachers for help, who, I believe, have more experience to give me valuable advice.
