What Is in The World of Limitless Possibilities? (Class 9 English Chapter 5)
- The World of Limitless Possibilities is an interview with Paralympian Dr. Deepa Malik. Paralysed waist down at 29, she chose sport over regret and won silver in shot-put at the 2016 Rio Paralympics.
- She calls society’s low expectations her biggest challenge, believes in ‘ability beyond disability’, and now works for inclusion and disability sports.
- Nine Gold Medals (David Roth): in a Special Olympics hundred-yard dash, eight runners stop to help a fallen boy; all nine walk to the finish holding hands.
- Common theme: what real winning means — courage, kindness and inclusion matter more than medals alone.
- Language work: idioms (defy the odds, in hindsight), a word cline of movement verbs, modal auxiliaries, reported speech, alliteration, imagery, tone and mood.
