Peter, awaking from a deep sleep, thought his wife was only having a    2    dream.

“Stop that noise, ” he said to her. He turned over and tried to go to 　　3　　 again, but his wife still cried out, “On, help! help! I’m sure I’m 　　4    . ”

Peter got out of bed and started 　　5    , but he could not find him any clothes.

“Where is my shirt? ” he asked. His wife was 　　6    ill to tell him, and she could only cry, “Oh, my    7　　 stomach!”

　　Many people see a person who can't read or spell as disabled, but what does disabled really mean? Well, with Andrew Mertzit of Maryland it meant he would not be 1 to attend his school any more.
