B
When some teenagers start a new school, they are usually nervous about being part of the group. This was exactly how it was for 15 - year - old Sergio Peralta who started his school year.
It was a challenge for Sergio because he was trying to keep his disability a secret from his new classmates. Born with a right hand that was not fully formed, Sergio got used to doing everything with his left hand, including writing. "As I was growing up, many people asked me what was wrong with my hand. So in the first days of school, I really felt like hiding my hand," he said.
But Jeff Wilkins, a teacher in the school's engineering programme, learnt about the boy's right hand and thought Sergio's classmates could do something. He asked them to think of a way to help. Then they considered building a robotic hand. Leslie Jaramillo, a student, said that the project showed the spirit of the engineering programme. "I was introduced to them by the teacher. They ended up telling me that they could build me a prosthetic hand, and I never expected it," said Sergio.
The students decided to deal with the project at once. They chose one online model and worked on it with a printer. To make sure that the end product would actually work, they put the tool to the test with a game of catch. The game was something that Sergio wasn't able to do one - handed. And with the robotic hand, Sergio could catch the ball.
Besides making the robotic hand, the classmates made friends with Sergio and helped him get used to the new school life in ways he never expected. "No one has ever offered me this tool. I'm really lucky to meet them," Sergio said.

当一些青少年进入一所新学校时，他们通常会因为融入集体而感到紧张。15岁的塞尔吉奥·佩拉尔塔开学时的情况正是如此。
对塞尔吉奥来说，这是一个挑战，因为他试图对新同学隐瞒自己的残疾。塞尔吉奥出生时右手发育不全，他习惯了用左手做所有事情，包括写字。“在我成长的过程中，很多人问我手怎么了。所以在开学的头几天，我真的很想把我的手藏起来，”他说。
但学校工程课程的老师杰夫·威尔金斯了解到这个男孩的右手情况后，认为塞尔吉奥的同学们可以做点什么。他让他们想一个帮忙的办法。然后他们考虑制作一只机械手。学生莱斯利·哈拉米约说，这个项目体现了工程课程的精神。“老师把我介绍给他们。最后他们告诉我，他们可以给我做一只假手，我从来没有想到过，”塞尔吉奥说。
学生们决定立即着手这个项目。他们选择了一个在线模型，并用打印机进行制作。为了确保最终产品真的有用，他们用这个工具进行了一个接球游戏测试。这个游戏是塞尔吉奥用一只手无法完成的。有了机械手，塞尔吉奥就可以接住球了。
除了制作机械手，同学们还和塞尔吉奥成为朋友，以他未曾预料的方式帮助他适应新的学校生活。“从来没有人给我提供过这样的工具。我真的很幸运能遇到他们，”塞尔吉奥说。
