simple shell - how to get a parameter typed in a shell script

Hi,
I am new to unix and using linux 7.2. I would like to create a script that would make it easyer for me to run my java programms. At the moment I have to type java [path to my program]myJavaprogram

I am trying to write a script that will allow me to type something like this "myscript myJavaprogram" or maybe "myscript -myJavaprogram.
This is what I got so far

#!/bin/sh
# Print the current working directory.
java `pwd`
#end of runjava file

How do I read an argument that I would like to pass?
ie %runjava Test
And the command passed to the shell would be "java [directory]Test"


Thenk you
