7．After a terrible car accident，the whole world had been completely dark and quiet for Robert Edwards for almost ten years，for he became both blind and deaf．The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such a sorrow that he tried several times to put an end to his life．
His wife did her best to tend and comfort him．By and by he finally regained the courage to live on．
On a hot summer afternoon，he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once．He stood under a large tree in order not to get himself wet．Unfortunately he was struck down by a lightning．The witnesses thought him dead but he woke up some 20minutes later lying face down in muddy water below the tree．He felt that he was trembling badly，but when he opened his eyes，he didn't dare to believe that he saw a plough（犁）lying near the wall．When Mrs．Edwards came running up to him，she shouted for help．He saw her and heard her voice for the first time in nearly 10years．
The news of Robert's regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread．Many doctors came to prove the truth of the news．Most of them said that he gained sight and hearing again obviously from the knock of lightning； none of them could give convincing reasons，however．The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that，since Edwards lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock in a terrible accident，perhaps the only way for them to regain was by another sudden shock．
