Assignment 3

In 2020, Ugandan bodybuilder Tamale Safalu lost his leg in a motorcycle accident. After years of rehabilitation, he returned to the sport and made history as the first athlete with a disability in Uganda to compete against able-bodied rivals in bodybuilding. In many Eastern and Southern African countries, people with disabilities face discrimination, but Tamale Safalu aims to change perceptions by raising self-esteem, challenging stigma and inspiring people worldwide.

Write a coherent text of 75–125 words from the Ugandan bodybuilder’s perspective about his determination to return to the sport and to confront prejudice against people with disabilities.

Your text must include the following sentence types:

  • A sentence with do-support (do-omskrivning)
  • A sentence with negation (nægtelse)
  • An imperative (bydeform) sentence 

Highlight one example of each sentence type in your text.

On Saturday afternoon, when I met up with Kristen Stewart on a balcony at the Cannes Film Festival, she had a confession to make: She was midway through the happiest day of her life.

The night before, her directorial debut, “The Chronology of Water,” had made its premiere here, the culmination of a very long effort to make her first feature. “I’ve had this movie in my head for years,” she said. And after so many false starts, financing issues and radical creative re-imaginings, she could barely believe that she had pulled it off.

“I just thought it was potentially dying every day,” she said. “It was like a shipwreck, we had to put that boat back together. It was shocking.”
