Question

8．[1]The little country schoolhouse was heated by an old-fashioned coal stove．An eight-year-old boy named Glenn Cunningham had the job of coming to school early each day so that he could use kerosene （煤油） to start the fire and warm the room before his teacher and his classmates arrived．One cold morning someone mistakenly filled the kerosene container he used with gasoline，and disaster struck．
[2]The class and teacher arrived to find the schoolhouse was in flames．Terrified on realizing that Glenn was inside，they rushed in and managed to take the unconscious little boy out of the flaming building，more dead than alive．He had major burns over the lower half of his body and was rushed to a nearby country hospital．
[3]From his bed，the badly burned，semi-conscious little boy faintly heard the doctor talking to his mother．The doctor told his mother that her son would surely die for the terrible fire had destroyed the lower part of his body．
[4]But the brave boy didn't want to die．Glenn made up his mind that he would survive．And somehow，to the amazement of the doctor，he did ___．Yet when the danger of dying was past，he again heard the doctor and his mother speaking quietly．The mother was told that since the fire had destroyed so much flesh in his legs that it would almost be better if he had died，since he was surely to be a lifetime cripple （瘸子） with no use at all of his legs．His mother refused to let the doctors cut off his legs．
[5]Once more this brave little boy made up his mind．He would not be a cripple．He would walk．But unfortunately，from the waist down，Glenn had no motor ability．His thin legs just hung there，all but lifeless．
[6]Eventually，Glenn was released from the hospital．Every day afterwards，his mother and father would massage（按摩） his legs，but there was no feeling，no control，nothing．Yet his determination that he would walk was as strong as ever．
[7]When he wasn't in bed，he had to be in a wheelchair．One sunny day his mother wheeled him out into the yard to get some fresh air．This day，instead of sitting there，he threw himself from the chair．Glenn pulled himself across the grass，dragging his legs behind him．
[8]He worked his way to the white fence bordering their yard．With great efforts，he raised himself up on the fence．Then he began dragging himself along the fence，determined that he would walk．He started to do this every day until he wore a smooth path all around the yard beside the fence．There was nothing he wanted more than to develop life in those legs．
[9]Eventually，through the daily massage and his determination，Glenn did develop the ability first to stand up，then to walk with help，then to walk by himself-and finally miraculously-to run．
[10]Glenn began to run to school．He ran for the joy of running and being able to run．He ran everywhere that he could．The people in his town would often see him run by on his way who knows where and smile．Later in college Glenn made the track team where his tremendous determination paid off．He eventually received the nickname the"Kansas Flyer．"In February 1934，in New York City，this determined young man，Dr．Glenn Cunningham，ran the mile in four minutes and eight seconds，the world's fastest indoor mile!
