"I felt I was the unluckiest person in the world," says Wang."When I saw students with their schoolbags on their backs, the sound of my wheelchair made me sick." Wang"s mother took him to a special hospital in Beijing. She looked after him in the daytime and worked at night to make money. But after two years, Wang was still not able to leave the hospital. Wang"s mother became too tired to go on and one day she herself became a hospital patient! One morning she woke up and saw her son holding breakfast for her. Wang"s trip to the food shop was his first time outside the hospital in two years. The five-minute walk took him thirty minutes. But he was finally able to make an important decision."I didn"t care how other people looked at me," he says."I had to learn to do things myself." For the next few years, Wang taught himself all his middle school subjects in the hospital and, five years after the accident, he won a chance to study in a college in Norway. Wang learned to drive, go rock climbing and ski. He even won two gold medals for skiing in an international skiing competition. "You are what you think you are," says Wang.

I was in the park with my elder sister, Cathy, on Friday. My sister left her jacket on a chair while we talked to some friends. When we went back to the chair, a girl in a red T-shirt was sitting there. She had some money in her hand. When she saw us, she got up and walked away. I asked my sister, "Did you have any money in your jacket?" She said, "Yes, Anna, I did." I said, "Look in your jacket quickly." Cathy looked in her jacket, but her money was not there. "That girl stole it!" I said, and we both ran after her. We caught her quickly. My sister was very angry and she said, "Give me the money." The girl gave the money to Cathy and ran away.
