TASK 3.1

I can think about many celebrities with disabilities, who have made significant contributions to

society. Albert Einstein had a learning disability. Stephen Hawking, a brilliant scientist who’s got

Gehrig’s disease. Of course, there are millions of people who live with, battle and overcome their

disabilities every single day of their lives.

I personally know many people with disabilities. That is people I admire because, whatever their

problem is, it really doesn´t hold them from doing what they want. Sometimes is other people

who think that they aren´t capable of success. They tell them things like: “Oh, maybe you should

try something else, that (doing the thing they want) seems too hard for you”. Incredibly,

sometimes mothers are the ones who do that, given the fact that they don´t want their children to

be hurt.

But these people have a lot to teach us. Their strength. Their special way to face difficulties. The

way they look at world. They are people to be respected and loved.
