1.选修七Unit1 MARTY’S STORY马蒂的故事
Hi, my name is Marty Fielding and I guess you could say that I am "one in a million".你好。我叫马蒂·菲尔丁。我想你可能会说我是―百万人中才有一个‖的那种人。In other words, there are not many people like me. 换句话说,世界上像我这样的人并不多见。 You see, I have a muscle disease which makes me very weak, so I can't run or climb stairs as quickly as other people. 你瞧,我的肌肉有毛病,使我的身体非常虚弱,所以我不能像别人那样快跑快步爬楼梯。 In addition, sometimes I am very clumsy and drop things or bump into furniture. 再说,有时候我还会笨手笨脚、不小心摔掉东西,或磕碰到家具上。Unfortunately, the doctors don't know how to make me better, but I am very outgoing and have learned to adapt to my disability. 不幸的是,大夫们不知道如何治好我的病,但是我很开朗乐观,学会了适应身体的残疾。My motto is: live one day at a time. 我的座右铭是:活好每一天。

One problem is that I don't look any different from other people. 问题是我看上去跟平常人一样。So sometimes some children in my primary school would laugh, when I got out of breath after running a short way or had to stop and rest halfway up the stairs. 因此,当我跑了很短的一段路之后,我就会喘不过气来,或者爬楼才爬到一半就得停下来休息。因此,上小学时有的孩子见了我这种情况就会笑话我。Sometimes, too, I was too weak to go to
