Read the passage and answer questions 23-30.
1. You might think that Olympic athletes are the healthiest
people in the world. It’s true that many are. However, it’s
also true that quite a few Olympic athletes were sick at early
ages and they had to overcome illnesses early in their lives.
One excellent example is Wilma Rudolph. She competed in
track-and-field (atletika) events in the 1960 Olympics. She
didn’t win just one gold medal. She won three. At the time,
people called her “the fastest woman in the world.”
2. As a young child, Wilma Rudolph could not participate in
sports. She had a series of serious illnesses, and then, at the
age of 4, she got polio. She lost the use of her left leg, and
the doctors said she would never walk again.
3. The people in Rudolph’s family did everything they could
to help her walk again. Wilma and her mother frequently
travelled 100 miles to get treatments for her leg. Her
brothers and sisters took turns giving her leg a daily
massage. Four times a day, they helped her do special
exercises for her leg. Amazingly, by the time Rudolph was 9
years old, she was able to walk again. Before long, she
started playing basketball and running. In high school, she
was a track star, and then she went to the Olympics. Wilma
Rudolph retired from her career as a runner when she was
22 years old. She then became a teacher and track coach.
Her story encouraged many people to work hard and
overcome difficulties.
