However, something terrible happened to him on May 27, 1995. His head landed first and badly hurt when he was thrown from his horse in an accident. Reeve’s life was saved by doctors, but the fighting against his hard life just began. As an actor, he would never be able to feel anything below his neck, breathe without help from a machine or do any physical activity on his own again. During this time, Reeve felt like he had lost all hope. He wished that he was dead and even thought of ending his own life. It was only because of the support of his wife, family and fiends that he found the hope and courage to live again. Reeve put his heart into learning everything he could about his injuries. He took lots of exercises. Reeve never met his goal of getting back on his feet, but he made great progress. Shortly after, he managed to return to his film work by directing, producing and even starring in films. He also wrote a book about his experience and returned to his charity work. Reeve became an energetic supporter for disabled people and raised money in support of medical research. “What I do is based on powers we all have inside us and you don’t have to be a ‘superman’ to do it.” His attitude encouraged many people who were stuck in illness. “With the progress of new medical research, I’m confident that people like me would be able to walk again one day. So you can see. I’m too busy with living to think of giving up!” His ten-year-long fighting came to an end on October 10, 2004, at the age of 52. His active performance for the disabled proved more superhuman than anything that could be dreamed up for the big screen. 1．When was Christopher Reeve thrown from his horse? ____________________________________________________________ 2．Who helped him find the hope to live again? ___________________________________________
