IMAGINE a life without arms or legs! You can’t hold anyone in your arms. You can’t walk anywhere with your feet. How would you last a day like that? Would you       at yourself in the mirror like Nick Vujicic, the 29-year-old Australian?

Nick was born without limbs（四肢）, so life was not       for him. At school many students played jokes on him       he looked different from everyone else. He was refused to be their friends, so he always felt       . However, he faced that bravely. He learned to type and write with two toes（脚趾）when he was six, and he could        surf the Internet and play golf. In university, he achieved great success and was among the excellent students in the studies. And he decided on       to do later in his life—to encourage others to work hard for their dreams.

Now Nick is one of the most popular       in the world. He travels to many countries and gives speeches about his story      difficulties. “Living life fully is about looking at what you have, not what you      ,” he said. His story encourages millions of people.

“I tell people to keep on getting up when they       and to always love themselves,” he said. “If I can encourage just one person, then my job in this life is done.”
