1. Helen Keller
Helen Keller was able not to give up on herself due to shortcomings, but to work harder and make progress, so she achieved outstanding achievements in the end. We ordinary people are both smart and healthy. If we don’t know how to work hard and study hard, we would be really sorry for ourselves!
Do you believe in miracles? Do you believe that a person who is blind, deaf and mute can also become a writer? Yes, this person is the great Ms. Helen Keller. When she was more than one year old, she became blind and deaf and mute due to illness.
For this reason, Helen's temper became very irritable, and she would lose her temper and throw things at every turn. Seeing that this was not an option, her family hired a very patient tutor, Miss Su Liwen, for her.
Under her influence and education, Helen gradually changed. She understands that everyone loves her so much that she cannot live up to their expectations of her. She used her only sense of touch, taste and smell to understand the surrounding environment, worked hard to enrich herself, and later further learned to write.
In a few years, when her first book "My Life" was published, it immediately caused a sensation across the United States. Although Helen Keller's facial features were mutilated, she was able to overcome her misfortune and complete her college education.
In the future, we will be more committed to social work in educating disabled children. This spirit of hard work and progress is really worthy of our imitation. Helen Keller was really a person with a disability but a strong will.

Beethoven lived in the world, but there were too few people who could understand him, and the only thing that could give him comfort was music.
When he was composing music, he often bit a thin wooden stick in his mouth to feel the vibration of the piano. He used a voice that he could not hear to express his love for nature and his pursuit of truth. Pursuit, longing for the future.
His famous "Symphony of Destiny" was created while completely losing his hearing. He firmly believes that "music can spark the human spirit." "Fight tenaciously and win through struggle." This idea runs through Beethoven's works.

The oval outline of the egg will be different, so it takes a lot of hard work to express it perfectly on the drawing paper. , Leonardo da Vinci studied sketching attentively, and after a long period of diligent and arduous artistic practice, he finally created many immortal paintings.
