课件10张PPT。Unit 1 Living well学习目标展示背景知识链接Kyle Maynard was born on March 24, 1986 with arms that end at the elbows① and legs near the knees.His parents, Scott and Anita, had no idea that their firstborn son would be born with a disability, but they made an important decision early on to drive him to be as independent as possible.And as a result, with two elbows he can type up to fifty words per minute on a normal keyboard, eat and write, drive a car, and live on his own in a three-story townhouse in Atlanta, GA.
He continues to inspire② as the author of his book, No Excuses (2005), a New York Times bestseller.
Kyle’s athletic ③ journey began as an 11-year- old that wanted to wrestle and a coach gave him an opportunity to try.After losing every single match his first year and most his second, Maynard, with his strong will and parents who wouldn’t let him give up on himself, found a way to win 36 varsity matches (大学生代表队的比赛)in his senior year, defeating several state place finishers and state champions during his final season.Maynard also began weight training at the same age.
In February of 2009, with leather straps④ and chains tied to his arms, he successfully lifted 420 pounds.
But Maynard’s achievements extend far beyond the wrestling mat or weight room.
