16-year-old Laresce Brown has become the strongest schoolgirl in the UK. She says her success is due to a joint condition, which used to engender great pain. Laresce has six British and World Champion power-lifting records under her belt. Yet until just two years ago, a condition called hypermobility left her in so much pain that she was unable to take part in sport. Rather than letting her illness limit her Life, Laresce took inspiration from her father, and began weight-lifting. This put an end to her pain, and she became a champion in her field. Laresee loves to dance and she was a keen Morris dancer at the age of eleven. After that, she had to face daily pain in her knees, elbows and hands. She was forced to miss several days of school each month, due to pain and the lack of sleep that caused. However, she is now effectively cured, since taking up the sport of power-lifting 18 months ago. Laresce's position as Britain's strongest power-lifter for her age is down to her spirit and determination. To ensure her success, Laresce must train for eight hours a week. "I really enjoyed the feeling of power I got and the excitement of people encouraging me to do my best. Becoming a champion was a big surprise—I just started off for fun and I was not expecting anything. So to win six titles was amazing," she said. Laresce's father said, "Being the father of such a high-achieving teen, I couldn't be more proud. She's truly the apple of my eye and has worked so hard to be where she is today. She's made us all so happy, and I feel we all enjoy a bright future together thanks to her." (1)What does the underlined word "engender" in Para. I probably mean?
