1.选修七Unit1 MARTY’S STORY 马蒂的故事 Hi, my name is Marty Fielding and I guess you could say that I am "one in a million".你好。我叫马蒂·菲尔丁。我想你可能会说我是“百万人中才有一个”的那种人。In other words, there are not many people like me. 换句话说，世界上像我这样的人并不多见。 You see, I have a muscle disease which makes me very weak, so I can't run or climb stairs as quickly as other people. 你瞧，我的肌肉有毛病，使我的身体非常虚弱，所以我不能像别人那样快跑快步爬楼梯。 In addition, sometimes I am very clumsy and drop things or bump into furniture. 再说，有时候我还会笨手笨脚、不小心摔掉东西，或磕碰到家具上。Unfortunately, the doctors don't know how to make me better, but I am very outgoing and have learned to adapt to my disability. 不幸的是，大夫们不知道如何治好我的病，但是我很开朗乐观，学会了适应身体的残疾。My motto is: live one day at a time. 我的座右铭是：活好每一天。 Until I was ten years old I was the same as everyone else. 十岁以前，我跟其他人是一样的。I used to climb trees, swim and play football. 我常常爬树、游泳、踢足球。In fact, I used to dream about playing professional football and possibly representing my country in the World Cup. 说实在的，我过去常常梦想我会成为职业球员，代表我们的国家参加世界杯足球赛。Then I started to get weaker and weaker, until I could only enjoy football from a bench at the stadium. 后来，我的身体开始变得越来越虚弱，以至于只能坐在体育场的长凳上欣赏足球了。 In the end I went into hospital for medical tests. I stayed there for nearly three months. 最后我到医院去做了检查，几乎住了三个月的医院。I think I had at least a billion tests, including one in which they cut out a piece of muscle from my leg and looked at it under a microscope. 我想我至少做过十亿次检查，这还包括一次他们从我的大腿上切下一片肌肉放在显微镜下...
