1. <em />A <em>wheelchair</em> is an object, presumably a chair with wheels on it, that provides mobility to people with certain disabilities. The context clues for this are "I don't mind using a wheelchair. I get around in it very well," and "because I have cerebral palsy."
2. <em>Disability</em> means something that keeps a person from living or doing things like a normal person. The context clue is "what is it like to live with your disability? Is it hard for you to be in a wheelchair?"
3. <em>Muddled </em>means something is hard to understand. The context clues are "Sometimes my words can sound very confusing," and "like I have something in my mouth."

5. The context clues that would help you understand what <em>cerebral palsy</em> means are "I don't mind using a wheelchair," which implies that a person with cerebral palsy uses a wheelchair, and "because I have cerebral palsy, it's difficult for people to understand what I'm saying," which shows that a person with cerebral palsy also has trouble speaking clearly.
