21．（6分） To personal trainer Sammy Callari， 13-year-old Parker Seward is more than a client（客户）. He's his “little brother”. Over the past year， the pair have bonded. They play basketball together， share meals and dance to hip-hop like no one's watching. The trainer was asked to work with the 13-year-oldboy， who has Down's syndrome （唐氏综合征），because his coworker who dealt with the boy was out of town last spring. Callari had never worked with someone with a disability before. He was anxious the first day he met Parker. But Parker's big smile and cheery introduction immediately put him at ease. He reminded Callari of himself when he was a teenager. Like Parker， Callari has also faced his fair share of challenges over the years. As a high schooler， Callari described himself as being the weak kid. When it came to sports， he was always overlooked. His dream of playing baseball in college quickly faded away. When he went to college，Callari turned to a new sport. His younger brother trained him to become a boxer. Callari participated in five matches. Before these competitions he was the underdog， but he won three times. “I know how it feels，” Callari said. “People tell you that you can't do this， and that you can't do that. ” When it comes to Parker， Callari refuses to accept the word “can't”. The friends meet twice a week to train. They bike， box， run and work and do push-ups. Parker has a short attention span， so it's Callari's job to keep him focused. “If Parker can do it， he's having fun， even with his frustration. Then people will ask， ‘Why can't I do that?’” Callari said. “That's the whole task right now. ”Callari recalls Parker's mom once thanking him for takin。
