What does this excerpt demonstrate about disabled people? (A) They can overcome their disabilities by participating in physical exercise. (B) They can do what people without disabilities can do, but in a different way. C They can play on sports teams, without spectators noticing their disabilities. D They can make up a team that is very competitive in a sport. Across the Nation, some 10,000 youngsters with disabilities are part of Little League's Challenger Division. Their teams play just like others, but -- and this is the most remarkable part -as they play, at their sides are volunteer buddies from conventional Little League teams. All of these players work together. They team up to wheel around the bases and to field grounders together and, most of all, just to play and become friends. We must let these children be our guides and inspiration.

This excerpt beautifully showcases the remarkable inclusivity that Little League's Challenger Division brings to young athletes with disabilities. It emphasizes how these children can engage in sports on an equal playing field, creating a sense of camaraderie and teamwork that transcends physical limitations. The presence of volunteer buddies from conventional teams illustrates that the act of playing sports goes beyond competition; it's a heartwarming demonstration of friendship and mutual support. Additionally, the excerpt serves as a powerful reminder that children with disabilities can indeed participate in activities just like their peers, but they might do so in unique and adapted ways. This involvement not only provides vital opportunities for personal growth and development but also challenges societal perceptions about disability, showing that every child, regardless of ability, can inspire and lead us in redefining what it means to play and connect with others.
