I always felt sorry for the people in wheelchair. Some people, old and weak, cannot get around by themselves. Others seem perfectly healthy, dressed in business suits. But whenever I saw someone in a wheelchair, I only saw a disability, not a person. Then I fainted at Euro Disney due to low blood pressure. This was the first time I had ever fainted, and my parents said that I must rest for a while after First Aid. I agreed to take it easy, but as I stepped toward the door, I saw my dad pushing a wheelchair in my direction! Feeling the color burn my cheeks, I asked him to wheel that thing right back to where he found it. I could not believe this was happening to me. Wheelchairs were fine for other people but not for me, as my father wheeled me out into the main street, people immediately began to treat me differently. Little kids ran in front of me, forcing my father to stop the wheel chair suddenly. I felt sad as I was thrown back and forth. " Stupid kids一they have perfectly good legs. Why can't they watch where they are going?" I thought. People stared down at me, pity in their eyes. Then they would look away, maybe because they thought the sooner they forgot me the better. "I'm just like you! " I wanted to scream. "The only difference is you've got legs, and I have wheels. " People in wheelchairs are not stupid. They see every look and hear each word. Looking out at the faces, I finally understood: I was once just like them. I treated people in wheelchairs exactly the way they did not want to be treated. I realized it is some of us with two healthy legs who are truly disabled. 【1】The author once when she was healthy.

You may have heard the saying, "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade." Since lemons are thought to be bitter(苦的)and lemonade sweet, the saying tells you to make the best out of a bad situation. Unluckily, when something bad happens, it's not uncommon for most people to talk about it to anyone who'll listen, and complain about life, "Why me?" That's like getting a bag of lemons, putting them down, and thinking, "Lemons taste bad! I'd rather have chocolate!' If you don't make anything with the lemons, they will go bad. But what if you did something with them? What if you made lemonade? Isn't it possible to do something similar with a bad situation? Here's an example: Let's say you're about to go to the movie, but you discover you have a flat tire(瘪胎).You think it a terrible thin. After all, you are really looking forward to spending some time with Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone. Now you're all stressed out. hating the tire, the car, and your life. But what if you called AAA, got your tire fixed or got caught up on things that you'd been meaning to do? What if you did some reading. or had coffee with a friend instead? As awful experience can be turned into something better. You can't change what has happened, right? So make the best of it. I'm not saying it will be easy. The easy thing to do is complain about your bad situation and not think about what it could be turned into. Next time when some bad things happen, stop and think, "How can I turn this around? How can I make it a nice experience ?" You needn't fear difficulties. As long as you keep on changing it, you will see the good at last. 【1】What do we know about the saying in Paragraph 1? A.
