Gina learned by watching her father, who’s also good at cooking in the kitchen.

Seventeen-year-old Brendan used to love running until he had a serious car accident three years ago. He lost part of one leg and didn’t even expect to walk again.

Helga has always been good at science, but she thought it was too ________ to become an inventor. Then she heard about an accident that had happened when a car ________ a train in her town. “That gave me an idea” says the clever sixteen-year-old.
