     When Wayne Mix was a child in the 1930s, his family sent him to a school for the deaf and blind. He
learned American Sign Language. With American Sign Language, deaf people use their hands to communicate.
They can spell words with their fingers, or they can use signs for whole words. Wayne communicated with
teachers and friends in sign language. He graduated at the age of 20. In those days, people who were deaf did
not get jobs and were not part of the community (社区), so Wayne went back to the family farm. His family
did not know sign language, so Wayne communicated a little by making simple motions (手势) with his hands.
He was never able to tell them his thoughts and feelings.
     Wayne's father died in 1971. There was no place for Wayne to live, so they sent him to Mountain
Meadows nursing home. He was only 51 and much younger and healthier than the other people in the nursing
home, but he was treated like the 80 and 90-year-old people because he did not hear or speak. No one knew
that Wayne was able to use sign language.
     Twenty-nine years passed slowly and silently for Wayne. Then one day he saw a visitor using sign
language with her deaf mother during a visit to the nursing home. He walked up to them and signed, "I'm
Wayne Mix."
     Suddenly everything changed for Wayne. He found many people who knew sign language. These-people
communicated through sign language, e-mail, television with subtitles and a special telephone that prints (打印)
the words that are spoken. It was a whole new world for Wayne. Now he could tell people his feelings, his
needs, and his thoughts.
     The people in Wayne's town were sad about the thousands of days in Wayne's life when no one knew
that he could communicate. They wanted to help Wayne to do some of the things he always wanted to do.
The workers at the nursing home found out that as a young man he loved to swim, and' he loved to see
pictures of dolphins swimming. When he started signing again, they asked him where he wanted to go.
"Water." Wayne signed.
     Mountain Meadows workers had an idea. "Let's send Wayne to Sea World in San Diego. "They told other
people in town about their idea. Many people in Wayne' s . town and in other states gave money to help
Wayne make the trip. The people at Sea World were very kind to Wayne. They let him swim with the dolphins
and help them feed all the sea animals. Newspapers wrote about Wayne, so many people gave money to buy
him a special TV and a telephone set. These were things Wayne never knew about before.

1. How did Wayne Mix communicate with his teachers in the school?

A. In American Sign Language.
B. By drawing pictures.
C. By spelling words on their hands.
D. By making simple 'motions.

2. Why did Wayne Mix go to live in the nursing home?

A. Because his family moved to another town.
B. Because nobody in his family knew the sign language.
C. Because his family was not able to provide him a room to live in.
D. Because he like to talk with the old people living in the nursing home.

3. How did Wayne's life change after he met a visitor using sign language in the nursing home?

A. He told the visitor who he was.
B. His life stayed the same as before.
C. He could send e-mails and make telephones to his new friends.
D. He could "talk" with people, telling them his needs and feelings.

4. Why did people feel sad after Wayne began to communicate with others again?

A. Because he was sent to the nursing home at a young age.
B. Because he failed to communicate with his family for such a long time.
C. Because he was not able to communicate with others while he could.

     DENVER, COLORADO-What does it take to be a hero? In the case of live Denver children, it only takes
a cry for help. Here's the story of these five heroes as Gary Lewis, the man they helped, tells it.
     "I like to work on my old car. It's my hobby. I wanted to put a new transmission (传动装置) in the car.
I put the car up on blocks (大块木头) because I wanted to get under it. I was trying to get the old transmission

muscle (肌肉) in their bodies to lift (抬起) the car, and I was able to get out from under it."
    Lewis got out from under the car with just a few cuts. He didn't even have to go to the hospital. "These
children are my heroes," he says. "I don't know how they did it, but I am lucky to be alive."
