三、 阅读理解：

I was sure this was the worst day of my life. Being diagnosed with Type I diabetes felt almost like a death sentence. My life changed in an instant, and I was terrified of not being able to cope with a chronic (慢性的) disease and afraid that I would never get to be a normal child. Little did I know that this condition would later on allow me to give back to my community through my volunteering initiatives and pursue a career where I could help others.

The impact that my disease had on my family was profound. We all had to learn to adjust to a new reality. I knew that it was up to me to make this work, but I felt lost. After a few days, the initial shock was replaced by denial, then came anger, and little by little, I later gained acceptance. By exercising determination and courage, I decided I would not let it dictate who I was or what I could become.

Meanwhile, I realized that some things in life are better dealt with by having a support system. With this in mind, I looked for volunteering positions where I could share my experience with others and listen to their own struggles. After I got involved in different initiatives, I decided to organize a support group for students who were dealing with difficult situations. The group was so successful that I was invited to other schools to talk about the difference we made in our members, lives by just listening to one another.

We all have challenges in life. Looking back, what felt like a death sentence at first turned into a way of supporting others in my community. It proves that the lessons we take from the setbacks we encounter can, in fact, be fundamental to later success.

1．Why did the author describe illness diagnosis as a death sentence?

A．Because the diagnosis was deadly.
