When I was about five years old, I used to watch a bird in the skies of southern Alberta from the Blackfoot Blood Reserve in northern Montana where I was born.I loved this bird; I would    36  him for hours.He would    37   effortlessly in that gigantic sky, or he would come down and light on the   38  and float there beautifully.Sometimes when I watched him, he would not make a sound and liked to move   39   into the grasses.We called him meksikatsi, which in the Blackfoot language   40   “pink-colored feet”; meksikatsi and I became very good friends.

The bird had a very particular significance to me   41   I desperately wanted to be able to fly too.I felt very much as if I was the kind of person who had been born into a world where    42   was impossible.And most of the things that I    43    about would not be possible for me but would be possible only for other people.

When I was ten years old, something unexpected   44  my life suddenly.I found myself become an  45  child in a family I was not born into; I found myself in a   46  position that many native Americans find themselves in, living in a city that they do not understand at all, not in another culture but   47  two cultures.

A teacher of the English language told me that meksikatsi was not called meksikatsi, even though that is what   48  people have called that bird for thousands of years.Meksikatsi, he said, was really “duck”.I was very  49  with English.I could not understand it.First of all, the bird did not look like “duck”, and when it made a    50   , it did not sound like “duck”, I was even more   51   when I found out that the meaning of the verb “to duck” came from the bird.

As I   52  to understand English better, I understand that it made a great deal of    53   , but I never forgot that meksikatsi made a different kind of meaning.I   54   that languages are not just different words for the same things but totally different    55   , totally different ways of experiencing and looking at the world.

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.

The clock struck eleven at night. The whole house was quiet. Everyone was in bed except me. Under the strong light,I looked sadly before me at a huge pile of that troublesome stuff they call “books”.

I was going to have my examination the next day. “When can I go to bed?”I asked myself. I didn't answer, in fact I dared not.

The clock struck twelve. “Oh, dear!”I cried. “Ten more books to read before I can go to bed!”We pupils are the most wretched creatures in the world. Dad does not agree with me on this. He did not have to work so hard when he was a boy.

The clock struck one. I was quite desperate (绝望的) now. I forgot all I had learned. I was too tired to go on. I did the only thing I could. I prayed, “Oh, God, please help me pass the exam tomorrow. I do promise to work hard afterwards, Amen.” My eyes were so heavy that I could hardly open them. A few minutes later, with my head on the desk, I fell asleep.
