Devon Gallagher,a college graduate from Philadelphia,wants the world to know exactly where she's been while she's on her worldwide vacation in a special way.The traveler,who was born with a bone disease,had her right leg amputated (截肢)at the age of four.Although the amputation caused inconvenience for Gallagher early on,she now sees it as nothing short of inspiration for living her best life.
   To spread that message.Gallagher has gone to social media,where she shares photos of her travels across the world,but instead of simply using a geo-tag(地理位置標(biāo)簽),she writes her location on her artificial leg before taking a picture.
   Now she has been taking pictures across the Continent, which show her cycling over the canal in Amsterdam relaxing on a wall overlooking the city of Barcelona,posing with a waffle in Brussels,taking in the beautiful Parthenon temple in Athens and enjoying a river ride in Budapest,all with the well-known locations written on her artificial leg.
   "I get a new leg every two years and I can choose the design on it.One day I had a sudden thought to get a chalk-board," Gallagher said. "My mum and grandmother didn't like the idea,but my friends thought it was great and told me to go for it,so I did."
   Gallagher said people often stare when she's writing on her leg,but once she shares the photos,she receives only positive feedback(反饋),"My leg hasn't stopped me from doing anything I've wanted to do," she said. "I don't know if it's my determination to prove to myself that I can do it,anyway I've been able to keep up with people at my age and lead a pretty great life."
   Gallagher shows us that you should never let anything stand in the way of your dreams.And if life gives you an artificial leg,make art.

  • 1.As Simon Kindleysides,34,took his first step in the London Marathon in April,he felt as if magic was in the air.
        "As we were walking toward the first mile,we actually started joining all the runners," he said. "Everyone was on the streets,cheering,and that was a magical moment." As time went on,the crowds and other racers spread around.Kindleysides and his team of eight supporters continued walking.
       Kindleysides,who is paralyzed(癱瘓的) from the waist down and typically uses a wheelchair,was equipped with an exoskeleton(體外骨骼) to help him walk.His supporters walked with him to change the batteries in his exoskeleton so he could keep moving.
        In 2013,Kindleysides was diagnosed with a brain tumor (腫瘤) that was growing in a way that pressed on certain nerves,leading to him losing feeling in his legs.He was told he would never walk again.Before his paralysis,the London-based singer and dancer had "always wanted to run a marathon," he said,but he never made the plan to do so - until this year.
        During the London Marathon,the last two miles were the hardest. "At that point,I was exhausted.It was freezing cold,and I was hurting emotionally," Kindleysides said.But he kept going. "I didn't want to let people down.I had a team of eight,and I was raising money for The Brain Tumour Charity," he said. "I didn't want to let them down,myself down,and I thought if I would get this far,I would have to continue." So he continued and made history as the first paralyzed man to complete the London Marathon on foot.
       Then,recovering at home,he shared his accomplishment with his three children. "They used to say I'm the only dad in their whole school who's in a wheelchair,and now they say I'm their dad,the only one who has walked a marathon," he said.
        Kindleysides is training to complete three more marathons next year,including the London Marathon again.

    (1)Why did Kindleysides' supporters accompany him all the way?

    A.To help change the batteries.
    B.To inspire him as a team.
    C.To guide him along the road.
    D.To assist him with the wheelchair.
    (2)What caused Kindleysides' disability?

    A.An operation on his brain for the tumor.
    B.An accident in the previous marathon.
    C.Some nerves produced out of the tumor.
    D.The pressure from the brain tumor on the nerves.
    (3)What partly supported Kindleysides to finish the hardest two-mile race?

    A.The prize money for the winner.
    B.The strong desire to recover.
    C.The kindness to help the charity.
    D.The belief to beat others.
    (4)What can we learn about Kindleysides?

    A.He was once a successful actor.
    B.He is ambitious for joining in London marathons once more.
    C.His children feel a pity for him in the wheelchair now.
    D.He was the first disabled man to complete the London Marathon.
