Lesson: Attitude Is Altitude (Important 2 marks questions)
Q: 'I call it my chicken drumstick', joked Nick. What does 'it' refer to? How does it help him?
A: 'It', in the above context, refers to the small foot on Nick's left hip. It looks like a chicken drumstick. It helps him balance, swim and move from one place to another place. It enables him to kick. It helps him in typing, writing and picking things up between his toes.
Q: 'His parents decided not to send him to a special school'. Was Nick happy about his
parents' decision? Why or why not? What do you think about this decision?
A: Nick was not happy about his parents' decision. He was terrified because there might be the risk of bullying in a mainstream school. I think that as a result of being a companion to able persons, he would have the chance of becoming independent by competing with them.
Q: How did Nick's parents help him to become independent?
A: a) Nick's father encouraged Nick to get into football, swimming, typing and skating.
b) Nick's mother invented a special plastic device that meant Nick could hold a pen and pencil.
c) Despite the risk of bullying, Nick's parents joined him mainstream school.
Q: Pick out the symptoms of Nick's depression. Do you think his depression was normal or something unique about him? Give reasons for your opinion.
A: At the age of eight, Nick went to his mother crying and told her that he wanted to kill himself. He was terrified about his future. At age ten, Nick tried to drown himself in the bath, as he could not control his depression.
Any person born like Nick might have the feelings of deep depression. I think his
depression was normal.
Q: Which incident is funny in 'Attitude Is Altitude'? What makes it funny?
A: One day Nick was in a car at traffic lights. A girl was looking at him interestingly. She could only see Nick's head so he decided to do a 360 degree spin in the car seat to show her that he was a torso. When she saw the torso, she left the place quickly. The idea of Nick showing the girl his torso, by making a 360 degree spin, makes the scene funny.
Q: What made Nick choose Bethany Hamilton to learn surfing?

Bethany Hamilton was good at surfing because she was gotten her arm bitten off by a shark when she was 12. Though she had no arm, she was able to surf well. As a disabled person, she could learn Nick well how to surf without arms and legs.
Q: What do you learn from the life of Nick Vujicic?
A: It is learnt from the life of Nick Vujicic that inner personality is more important than the physical personality. The life story of Nick teaches us that if we fail, we
should try again and again until we succeed.
