<i><b>Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions, </b></i>

Tatyana McFadden is an extraordinary example of how determination and resilience can overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Born in 1989 in Saint Petersburg, Russia, with spina bifida, a condition that paralyzed her from the waist down, Tatyana faced immense challenges from the very beginning. Abandoned by her birth parents, she spent the first six years of her life in an orphanage without access to a wheelchair, learning to walk on her hands to keep up with other children.

<b> At the age of six, Tatyana's life took a transformative turn when she </b>

was adopted by Deborah McFadden, an American advocate for children with disabilities. Moving to

Baltimore, Maryland, she finally had the support and resources she needed. Deborah enrolled her in various sports to build her strength and confidence, leading Tatyana to discover her passion for wheelchair racing at the age of eight.

Tatyana’s athletic prowess quickly became evident. By 15, she had competed in her first Summer Paralympics in Athens, securing a silver and a bronze medal. Her success continued to soar as she went on to win seven Paralympic gold medals and achieve the unprecedented feat of a Grand Slam in marathons. In 2013, Tatyana won the Chicago, Boston, New York, and London marathons in the same year, a testament to her extraordinary stamina and dedication.

In addition to her athletic achievements, Tatyana is also an advocate for disability rights and an inspiration to many. She was named the

'Female Athlete of the Year' by the International Paralympic Committee in 2013 and 2014, further cementing her status as a role model.

Tatyana McFadden’s story is one of unwavering determination, illustrating that with resilience and perseverance, no obstacle is too great. Her journey from an orphanage in Russia to the pinnacle of Paralympic success is a powerful reminder of the strength of the human spirit.

Gary Hall Jr., born in 1974 in Cincinnati, Ohio, is renowned as one of the greatest swimmers in Olympic history. Unlike many athletes, Gary's journey to the top was marked by both remarkable achievements and significant health challenges. As the son of Gary Hall Sr., a three-time Olympian, and the grandson of Charles Keating, also a notable swimmer, Gary grew up immersed in a family legacy of swimming excellence. Gary's early career was promising, with his natural talent and rigorous training leading him to become a standout swimmer. However, his path to success took an unexpected turn in 1999 when he was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. This life-altering condition posed a significant threat to his career, as many doubted his ability to compete at the highest level. Refusing to be sidelined by his diagnosis, Gary adapted his lifestyle and training regimen to manage his diabetes, demonstrating extraordinary resilience and determination.

<b>amassed a total of ten medals, including five golds. His fierce competitiveness </b>

freestyle with fellow American swimmer Anthony Ervin.

Beyond his athletic prowess, Gary has been a vocal advocate for diabetes awareness. Using his platform, he has worked tirelessly to educate the public about the condition and inspire those living with it. His advocacy work has made him a role model, showing that with the right mindset and support, one can overcome even the most daunting challenges.

Gary Hall Jr.'s legacy is one of perseverance and triumph. His story is not just about his Olympic victories but also about his relentless fight against a chronic illness, making him an enduring inspiration to athletes and individuals facing their own battles.
