♿ 5 DIFFICULTIES A WHEELCHAIR USER MAY FACE
- At home: Need handles in bathrooms and toilets; kitchen surfaces must be lower; cupboards need to be accessible.
- Getting in/out of bath or on/off toilet: Tasks that non-disabled people take for granted become major challenges.
- Outside obstacles: Curbs, stairs, narrow doorways, and uneven pavements are difficult to navigate.
- Public transport: Buses and trains may not be wheelchair-accessible; lifts in subways can be broken.
- Social situations: Crowded places like shops or supermarkets – a wheelchair can block aisles, causing frustration from others.
🏅 PARALYMPIC GAMES
What is your opinion of the Paralympic Games?
The Paralympic Games (also called the Paralympics) are held after the Summer Olympics. Athletes with various disabilities compete in events like wheelchair basketball, blind football, para-swimming, and para-athletics. These competitors overcome enormous physical and mental challenges. They are true inspirations who prove that disability does not define a person's potential.
👉 Sample answer: "The Paralympic Games are an incredible event that showcases the strength and determination of athletes with disabilities. For example, wheelchair basketball is a sport where players have to control their chairs while shooting and defending. The challenges they overcome are huge – not just physical but also social barriers. I think they are amazing role models for everyone."
