阅读下面的短文,从各题的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。
Ammie was only 18 months old when she had an accident. The little baby reached up to grab a hot kettle. Boiling water spilled all over her body.
An ambulance rushed the baby to the hospital. One-fifth of Ammie's body was burned. Over the next 16 years, Ammie had 12 operations to repair her body.
When she went to school at age 4, other kids wouldn't play with her because of her burned skin. Ammie's parents always told her, “if people have a problem with your burns, the problem is theirs, not yours.”
Today, Ammie is 17. She has many scars and is still in pain sometimes. However, she is a confident, outgoing teenager. She gives hope to other young people who have been severely burned.
This month, Ammie will join some younger children for a summer camp. “I'll show them how to ignore unkind stares from others,” she says. Ammie loves wearing sleeveless tops. She wants to show the children at summer camp that they can do the same.
