She tells the experience of 15yearold Jessica from Burlington. Jessica's leg was amputated (锯掉) at the knee because of cancer. Jessica tells about playing soccer. She kicked the ball hard and it flew off in one direction while her artificial leg flew another way. Then “The tall, pretty person that I am,” she said, “sat on the floor in laughter.”
Jessica may not have laughed about her cancer, but she
laughed
about
dealing
with
its
results. __3__
Then there is the story of 17yearold Betsy.
She made her way to the radiation room (放射室) for her regular radiation therapy.
As usual,
she dropped her hospital gown and,
wearing only her birthday suit, climbed onto the table and waited.
After a couple of moments she began to realize something disturbing: the extra people in the room were not the medical students she had thought, but rather painters giving an estimate on painting! __4__ And like Jessica,
her ability to laugh helped her to deal with one of the most difficult things a young person can endure (忍受) —cancer.
There is a time to weep and a time to laugh.__5__ And you'll smile at the end.
A.She was learning to wear an artificial leg.
