MY VIEW ON FATE

Do you believe fate? There are a amount of different views. To different people, the definition to fate is almost not the same. Some people consider that one’s fate is destined while he comes into the world and nothing can change it. Besides some people hold their views that one’s fate are controlled by themselves. From my own perspective, I am the latter one. No matter who we are and no matter where we from, we have the chance to hold our own fate. For instance, Helen Keller. As we all known, she is blind and deaf when she was only 19 months old. However, she never believes her fate. She showed great courage and confidence to fight her life. At last, she gained what we able-bodies person couldn’t have. She told us that if we don’t bow to the fate, everyb ody can change it. There is a saying goes, “Everyone is the architect of his own future.” We should believe ourselves but the fate.

Love and Care for the Handicapped

关爱残疾人

1．残疾人作为社会的一个特殊群体需要更多的关爱和帮助。2．关爱残疾人重在转变观念，即把他们视为独立、平等的个体，同时我们还应该致力于为残疾人创造一个更便利的生活环境。

3．残疾人也有自己的优势，所以在关爱残疾人的同时我们自己也将受益匪浅。

China has an estimated 83 million disabled people, accounting for about 6.3 percent of the country’s population. To ensure a better life for this special group of people, it calls for more love and care from the rest of the society. However, nowadays some people still harbored some kind of prejudice against the handicapped. Therefore, a change in their attitudes is of top priority. Just as the sign language hostess from the China Disabled Art Performing Troupe, Jiang xintian, often “said” with her hands that “Life is full of ups and downs, and our life is not unlucky but just inconvenient.”, so the best way to show our love and care is to offer them the respect and dignity bestowed with every individual. Only when we treat them as equals would they enjoy the opportunity to become more independent members of this society and fulfill their

dreams confidently. In addition, joined efforts should be devoted to creating a more convenient living environment for the handicapped. Among the many other things we can do for them is the construction and installation of barrier-free facilities, such as special lanes for the blind, low chassis (底架，底盘) barrier-free buses, or wheelchair ramps (坡道) in public places, which will not only greatly ease the lives of the handicapped but also benefit any ordinary individual such as a mother with a baby stroller. As the saying goes “When God closes a door, He opens a window.” most physically-challenged people have their own strengths. Either the acute sense of hearing of a blind, or the expressive body language of a deaf and dumb may serve as a perfect example. What impressed us most deeply would be the optimism, courage and perseverance showed by those disabled athletes, and it is they who help us to gain new insights into the true meaning of life. Thus, while we are extending a helping hand to the physically-challenged, we are virtually learning even more from them, learning a more positive attitude towards life and learning to be a more complete human being.
