Li Wei's College Dream
Li Wei, a 22-year-old
young man is named "Strong Brother" by netizens (網友). He walked on his
knees all the way to the 2011 national college entrance examination (高考) room. He was born in a poor
family in Shanxi province. But unluckily, a traffic accident took away his legs when he was only 3 years
old. His life has changed since then. Without feet, he had to spend most of his time practicing walking
on his hands and knees. Everybody who sees Li Wei for the first time is surprised to see that he can
easily play tennis or climb up stairs without feet. Some people even think he still has feet, but has short
legs.
With hard work, Li Wei finished all his school study. In 2011, he became a college student in
Chongqing Normal University. Now he has been enjoying his college life. And he received a new
pair of artificial legs (假肢) from China Disabled Person's Federation(殘聯(lián)).
He likes the popular song which says"I know my future is not a dream, I will live happily for every
minute of my life. My future is not a dream. My heart moves with the hope…
