It was a warm and sunny day. Tammy put on her best clothes. She would go on a 1  trip with her family. The trip was different from usual ones. On the way, someone 2  hello to them, but Tammy could hear nothing because she was deaf (聋的).

Soon Tammy 3 Dr. Steven's hospital. She put on a hearing aid (助听器) there. When Dr. Steven 4 it on, Tammy was so excited, because it was the first time that she heard a sound!

Some people think that deaf children are not very smart. However, Dr. Steven doesn't think so. So he works hard to help children with hearing 5 in poor places. He has helped hundreds of children 6 the world. With Dr. Steven's help, many children like Tammy can start to learn with hearing aids. They are 7 and do very well in school.

Dr. Steven also helps people learn how to take good care of their 8 . That helps them hear clearer or even get rid of (摆脱) hearing aids slowly. He knows that one can't 9 enjoy the beauty of the world without hearing any sound.

As for Tammy, she is experiencing the world in a new 10 . She is so thankful to Dr. Steven. She hopes that other children with hearing problems can get help, too.

My name is Peter. I study at No.1 Middle School. My school is in a(n) 1 neighbourhood (街区), and it's far from the busy streets. When you get to my school, you can first see a(n) 2 building. It is for teachers. Behind it, there is a 3 . It is my favourite place because I like reading. After school, I always 4 time reading books or doing my homework there. Where is the classroom building? It's next to the library. We have 5 in the classroom building. Behind the library is the dining hall. There are different kinds of food there, such as rice, bread and vegetables. Students only need to pay $3 to 6 there. There is also a gym in my school. It's across from the classroom building. It can hold (容纳) more than 2,000 students, so it is very 7 . After class, my friends and I 8 playing ball games there. It is 9 fun.

The teachers in my school are very 10 . They often take us to climb mountains on weekends. We all have a good time.
