That’s especially impressive, ________ she is legally blind, born with a rare condition that causes her eyes to shift (转移) constantly. She often sees double and can’t ________ how far away things are.
When she was little, her mom _________ that even though she couldn’t see _________, she was fearless. So her mom signed her up for gymnastics when she was three. She loved the ______ right away and gymnastics became her favorite.
