Isabel Powell likes to swim. It’s a（n） 1 thing that she shares with a movie star she’ll
be meeting later this year—a star whose life story is coming to a theater near you this month.
Who’s the star? A dolphin named Winter. And   2 is not the only thing that she and Isabel have in common.
Winter lost her   3 when she was a baby. She got it caught in a trap used to   4__ crabs. Isabel, who had a similar experience to Winter, once had a   5 life.   6 , when she was 2 a tumor（肿瘤）on her foot   7 her leg.
Now, both Winter and Isabel   8 artificial limbs. In Isabel’s case, it’s an artificial leg and foot. In Winter’s case, it’s an artificial tail.
In November, Isabel will travel from her home to Clearwater, Florida, to   9 Winter. Clearwater is the site of the aquarium（水族馆）where Winter has lived since she was   10 from that trap.
According to the Kitsap Sun, the meeting was set up by the man who designed Winter’s artificial tail—Kevin Carroll. Carroll also   11 artificial limbs for people.
He and Isabel   12 met last month in Bremerton, Washington, at the 13 where she got her artificial leg, which freed her of the   14 that had troubled her for years.   15__ Carroll met Isabel and found out she wants to be a veterinarian （兽医）, he decided to set up the meeting.
She   16 people who’ve lost limbs by   17 them they can still do the things they used to do. According to the Kitsap Sun, she plays softball,   18 karate competition and chases after her dog, too. For years, she didn’t know anybody else who had an artificial limb. Now, she’s about to meet a movie star who has one, too.
And she no longer feels so   19 . “I think it’s pretty cool,” Isabel told Kitsap Sun reporter Chris Henry. “Winter has an artificial tail. That makes me think that I’m not the only   20 one. There are thousands more.”
