After asking many doctors and parents of other deaf children, they decided to put me in a normal school.
On my first day in the school, the other kids made fun of me because of my hearing aid. And then I saw myself as an ugly kid.
Mrs. Jordan, my teacher changed all of that with a simple three-word phrase. One morning, she asked the class a question. I read her lips（嘴唇） and raised my hand right away. She called me. I took a deep breath and nervously answered Mrs. Jordan's question.

Reading books is a good hobby for all kinds of reasons. First, reading books is fun. You can always keep yourself happy if you like reading. This is especially useful when the weather is bad. It is a relaxing hobby, too. You can really become lost in a book.
Next, you can read a book almost anywhere: in a car, in a waiting room, on a plane, in bed --- even in a bath. All you need is a book. Reading is a convenient(方便的) hobby as it is easy to stop and then start again.
Another good reason for reading books is that it is useful. If you keep reading as a hobby, you will get better and better at it. This means that you will read faster and will become better at understanding what you read. As your reading improves, you will find that your schoolwork becomes much easier.
Some people say that reading is out of date. This is not true. You have to be able to read on the Internet. And the better you read, the better your computer skills will be. Reading is hardly (几乎没有)out of date!
Good readers are most likely to be good writers, too. They are usually good at spelling as well, and have more things to write about.
Reading books is a wonderful hobby, one of the best. What other hobbies could be more useful or more enjoyable?
