The holding of Paralympic Games is not only the affirmation and support for disabled people's sports, but also the opportunity for disabled people to show themselves, prove themselves and surpass themselves. The spirit of the Paralympic Games-"Disabled people can also participate in sports like ordinary people"-inspires disabled people to constantly challenge themselves, constantly surpass themselves and make greater contributions to themselves and society.
