In the U.S. today, there are between 1,500,000 and 2,000,000 children who are either partially or totally deaf. How can their parents teach and help them? Helmer Myklebust, Northwestern University audiology professor, gives some clear answers.
【B6】______________________________________________
First of all, parents must find out just what sort of deafness their child has. A few "deaf" children actually have perfect hearing, but because of psychological tensions, choose neither to speak nor to hear. Some children—the aphasiacs—can hear, but because of injury to the brain, can make no sense from the sounds about them and gradually come to ignore sound entirely. Other children can hear a few sounds, but not those in the range of ordinary speech. Still others hear nothing at all.
【B7】______________________________________________
The silent world in which the deaf child lives is not easy for parents to understand. If the child loses his hearing at two or three, he will suddenly feel cut off. "Often he cries easily," says Professor Myklebust, "and tries in other ways to show you that he feels lonely and sad." If the child is born deaf, he is at first better off. Later, however, he lives a life of terrifying confusion. Usually, he hears no explanation for sudden and unexpected events, never hears the thousands of words that tie daily happenings together. Gradually, He notices how easily his brothers and sisters make their own wants known. He begins desperately to want to hear.
【B8】______________________________________________
Faced with their child’s deafness, says Professor Myklebust, some parents become overprotective, allow the child to play tyrant, fail to prepare him for the problems ahead. Other parents take the opposite extreme; they make no allowances for the child, confront his handicap with open hostility. Still other parents weep in front of the child, drag him to specialist after specialist for further treatment.
【B9】______________________________________________
Parents should treat the child as normally as possible, keeping his life and discipline consistent, helping him at all times to communicate. If he has lost his hearing after having learned to talk, he should be persuaded to talk constantly, learning to control his voice even though he cannot hear it. If he cannot talk but has some hearing left, the parent can buy hearing aids and auditory training units which will help teach the child what sort of sounds exist and what they mean. Even if the child has no hearing at all, he can still be taught to "feel" sound, learning first to pronounce "mmm-mmm" or "bu-bu-bu," and later whole words, by the vibrations in his throat.
【B10】______________________________________________
Perhaps, the hardest thing the parent must do is to teach the child that he will be discriminated in many areas. Deaf people have been refused the rental of a farm, a house, or an apartment because the landlord himself considered them inferior and incapable. Some employers have said that they could not employ deaf people because hearing employees resented the fact that a deaf person could do the work as well as they do.
【B9】
选项

根据该段的helping…to communicate、be persuaded to talk、learning…to pronounce,可知本段跟如何帮助耳聋儿童说话有关,而A中的help deaf children speak正表达了这一中心意思,故本题答案选A。
