Question

【题目】 Joe Richman works as a radio reporter and is looking for a new idea for a radio programme. He met a teenager called Josh Smith. Josh had Tourette's Syndrome — a brain trouble.

Josh was just beginning high school when he was invited to work with Joe on a story about his illness. Joe wanted Josh to keep a radio story of his daily life. He gave Josh a tape recorder and asked him to record what happened to him every day. Josh was embarrassed (窘迫的) to record at school — his friends might laugh.

One day, Josh made up his mind lo take the tape recorder to school. He took it out at lunchtime. What happened next was a total surprise. Everyone started asking him questions about Tourelle's.

That was an important day in Josh's life because he learned to be more open about his condition. He learned a lot about himself and the world by doing the radio diaries. And Joe was happy that many people loved his programme.
