I was ten years old when my mother died. Ten years old on that very day, my mother organized a party for me at the hospital. She made sure everyone there brought me presents. 

Nurse Ms. Louise gave me a fountain pen. "Now you can write beautiful stories, Katie," She said. Then the twins in the same room gave me a pink diary. A little too cute for me. I mean, I read Stephen King, the novelist and wanted to write like him. There was one box they held out till the end. It was a large box, carefully wrapped (包裹) with exquisite paper and ribbons. "Who's it from?" I asked. 

"It's you," Mama mouthed, hard breathing, but she smiled a very small smile at me. I read her lips. She meant it was a present for me. 

"Of course, it is," I said happily. 

I took off the paper carefully. It was a beautiful box made of heavy cardboard. Then I opened it slowly and...

"It's empty," I said. "Is this a joke?" I turned to ask Mama, but she was gone, no breath. 

"Mama!" I cried. I screamed. 

I cried steadily for a week at night, and for about a year, I stopped writing and reading. I felt empty and angry. 

One night, I woke up remembering how she had said, "It's you." Not, "It's for you," just "It's you." Mama had been a writer herself. She didn't use words carelessly. But, why? 

I took the box out and opened it. It was as empty as the day I had put it away. 

 "It's you," I whispered to the box. Suddenly I knew. 

I was the box, solid and strong, maybe even beautiful on the outside. But I had to fill up the box to make it all it could be. I had to fill me up as well. 

Then ____. The first thing I put on paper was about that birthday. I kept it in the box, and pretty soon that box was overflowing with stories. And poems. And memories. 

And so was I.

 请阅读下列短文,掌握其大意,然后从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中,选出一个能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Kaitlin Douglass is a middle school PE teacher at Big Rapids Middle School in Michigan, US. She started to 1 ways to introduce activities with wheelchairs(轮椅) into her classes. This idea was inspired 2 the parent of one of her students, who uses a wheelchair, reached out to her. 

Chase Fuller, an 11-year-old from Big Rapids, has used a wheelchair since an accident in 2019. Chase has developed a love for wheelchair basketball and wanted to know if there was a 3 to have wheelchair activities in his PE classes at school. 4 about the idea, Douglass, worked with Fuller's mother to make it happen. 

The class has also tried a few different activities. They 5 wheelchair pickleball(匹克球), wheelchair volleyball and wheelchair football. According to Douglass, wheelchair volleyball and basketball have been the most popular sports the class has tried on wheels. 

"I can see how bringing in the wheelchair has given some of my 6 a better understanding of those who need to use a wheelchair day in and day out," Douglass told the media. For the able-bodied students in the class, they can 7 know where their weaknesses are while trying different sports. Then they can think about how they can turn them into strengths, according to Douglass. 

Douglass spent long hours researching these sports. She also hopes to make these kinds of sports more 8 in school. She believes this will give students challenges and chances to grow.
