 A famous writer who was visiting Japan was invited to give a lecture at a university to a large group of students. As most of the students couldn't understand spoken English, he had to have an interpreter(口语翻译).

 During his lecture he told an interesting story which went on for rather a long time. At last he stopped to allow the interpreter to translate it into Japanese, and was very surprised when the man did this in a few seconds, after which all the students laughed loudly.

 After the lecture, the writer thanked the interpreter for his good work and then said to him, Now, please tell me how you translated that long story of mine into a short Japanese one.

Blind from birth, I have never had the opportunity to see myself and have been completely dependent on the image I create in the eyes of others.
There are those who   36   that since I can’t see, I obviously also cannot   37 . Very often people will talk with me at the top of their lungs. Conversely to this, people will also often   38 , assuming that since my eyes don’t work, my ears don’t either. For example, when I go to the airport and ask the ticket agent for   39 to the plane, he or she will always pick up the phone and call a ground hostess in a very low voice. "Hi, Jane, wave got a 76 here." I have concluded that the word "  40 " is not used because they are unwilling to inform me of my condition of which I may not have been previously   41 .
On the other hand, others know that of course I can hear, but believe that I can’t talk. Once I became ill and was hospitalized. Immediately after I was    42 , I was wheeled down to the X-ray room. Just at the door sat an elderly woman(judging from  her voice) asked the orderly(护工) who had been wheeling me:" What is your name?" “What’s your name?” the orderly   43  to me. "Harold Krents", I replied. "Harold Krents", he repeated. "When was he born?" "When were you born?"…This continued for about five minutes before I finally interrupted, "Look, this is absolutely  44  . OK, I can’t see, but it’s go to become pretty  45  to both of you that I don’t need an interpreter(翻译)." “He says he doesn’t  need an interpreter," the orderly reported to the woman.  
The   46  misconception of all is the view that because I cant see, I can’t  47 . I was turned down by over forty law firms,   48  my qualifications included a cum laude degree from Harvard Law School. The  49 to find jobs, the continuous   50 of being told that it was impossible for a blind person to   51 law, the rejection letter, not based on my lack of   52  but rather on my disability, will always remain one of the most upsetting experiences of my life.
  53 , the Department of Labor issued laws that demand equal  54 opportunities for the disabled. The business community’s response has been   55 . The attitude towards the disabled is beginning to change.
