On May 28th, 1998, a deaf girl named Lan Zhenni was cordially received by leading comrades such as Huang Hua and He Luli, and made the only typical speech on behalf of the national award-winning students at the award ceremony. Although her pronunciation is not very clear when she speaks, what people hear is clearly the strongest sound played by an 11-year-old girl on the strings of life!
11 years! The road that Jenny has walked is a road that ordinary people can't imagine. There are too many insurmountable obstacles on this road! There are too many tears, sweat and hardships on this road! However, with the concern of parents, school and society, Jenny overcame the aphonia caused by deafness with tenacious perseverance, finally learned to speak, and became an excellent student in Jinan Jingerlu Primary School! Become the winner of Soong Ching Ling Scholarship, "Top Ten Young Pioneers" in Shandong Province and "Top Ten Little Painters" in Jinan! On the road of her growth, how many good-hearted strangers helped this ambitious deaf child walk one journey after another, shedding love all the way, leaving little by little feelings ... < P > When Jenny was born, she was a particularly beautiful girl, and her parents named her "Chenchen". May she be as lively, fluttering and carefree as the morning sun forever. However, no one expected that an ordinary injection of gentamicin would suddenly bring disaster to this lovely child, and two-year-old Jenny fell into the silent abyss! This sudden blow was unacceptable to relatives. The mother held her lovely daughter and did not believe that the child was really deaf. Take a look at the hearing test in the hospital, it is clearly written in black and white, and you can't help but accept this cruel reality! Shout "Morning Morning" with your back to your child, just like facing the empty Yuan Ye, without any echo. Tears, like endless mountain springs, gurgled from mother's eyes. When young Jenny saw her mother crying, she cried, too. She wiped her tears for her mother while crying, but she couldn't wipe them. How can a child's little hand wipe away her desperate tears-tears flowing from her heart! This home, which used to be so happy and joyful, since then, the laughter has disappeared, and the warmth and peace of the past can no longer be found. The whole family looks at this child who is still ignorant of the world and his heart is broken. What will the child do in the future?
In order to treat the children, the whole family tried their best to find a hospital that could treat Jenny. Later, I learned that Jenny's deafness was incurable, and her auditory nerve was damaged and could not be repaired. After many inquiries, parents finally learned that Jinan Central Hospital has a rehabilitation center for deaf children, which can teach children to speak and be deaf but not dumb. This exciting news has rekindled a glimmer of hope for their family.
For this reason, the whole family was transferred from Longkou to Jinan. My mother resolutely quit her beloved job as a nurse and worked as a canteen cook in a company in Jinan, in order to have time to pick up and coach the children. To this end, they also gave up the index of giving birth to a second child and devoted themselves to cultivating this deaf daughter. However, the road of language training is very uneven, and the language training class is unwilling to accept Jenny; Because Jenny is so deaf that her residual hearing is almost zero, it is difficult to succeed in language training, and the language training class has never accepted such a severely deaf child. Under the repeated entreaties of the couple, the teacher of the language training class made an exception and accepted Jenny.
From then on, Jenny began five years of hard language training. For Jenny, the most difficult and daunting thing is pronunciation. Pronouncing a sound correctly often takes hundreds and thousands of times to practice hard! Whenever a sound can't be pronounced for a long time, her eyes will overflow with tears of anxiety, frustration and pain! Sometimes I whisper the words my mother just taught me during the day in my sleep. Other children are the most carefree and naive at this age, but Jenny has experienced the bitterness of the world at the beginning of her life! Mothers often ask themselves painfully when their children are asleep: "Is this too cruel to their children?" But I thought, can you do it without this? Otherwise, children will never speak, and will live in a deaf and dumb world all their lives. Her heart was broken at the thought of this.
After five years of hard language training, experts from the Rehabilitation Center for the Deaf gave Jenny a comprehensive test, and the result was a rock-breaking one: she reached the third-level rehabilitation level and basically had the ability to communicate with normal people!
Jenny has reached school age. Parents are determined to choose a school for Jenny to go to school with normal children, so as to satisfy the children's desire to study and live in a world of sound!
With the help and recommendation of the leaders of the Municipal Education Commission and Huaiyin District Education Commission, Jenny's parents came to Jinger Road Primary School. After a heartbreaking narrative, the principal of the school made a decision on the spot and promised to open the school door to little Jenny.
Jenny's family is ecstatic about this. In order to thank the society for accepting and caring for the unfortunate little Jenny, and also to let Jenny never forget the cherished care of society and family, she gave Chenchen the meaningful name "Lan Jenny"-although she is disabled, she is still a treasure cherished by family and society.
When the school accepts Jenny, it means accepting difficulties and challenges; Accepting her means fulfilling the burden and obligation of teaching and educating people and making them useful. To this end, the old headmaster, who is over 5 years old, said: No matter how difficult and frustrated Jenny will encounter in the future, we will never give up helping her.
In order to facilitate Jenny's study, the school has arranged Sun Shouhui, a caring teacher, as her head teacher. When meeting the head teacher for the first time, Jenny was very nervous. She held the chalk and wrote neatly on the blackboard with tender little hands: "Hello, teacher, I want to study hard and make progress every day" and bowed deeply to the teacher. Then, she looked at the teacher with expectant eyes. Her head teacher said, "I still remember those eyes. I was shocked by the eager and eager eyes. What could touch the teacher's heart more than this?" Such a special deaf child came to the class, and the students were very surprised, because they were not used to talking to Jenny with their mouths. Jenny was really upset when she saw her classmates talking and laughing together, but she didn't understand. The bell rang, of course she couldn't hear it. Seeing her classmates running into the classroom, she ran with them. The teacher asked the students to answer questions. She secretly remembered the teacher's mouth and gestures when she spoke. When it was her turn, as long as the teacher's eyes met hers, she immediately understood that the teacher was calling her and would immediately stand up to answer questions. In morning exercises, she can't hear the teacher's password, but she will refer to the actions of her classmates in front and do it as neatly as everyone else! What she fears most is the homework assigned by the teacher after class, and sometimes she misses it if she is not careful. After a lesson, she will definitely check the contents of her homework with her teachers or classmates before school every day ... Jenny is facing difficulties that ordinary people can't understand and imagine, but she has no tears and no retreat. She believes that sooner or later, she will adapt to this kind and strange class and school with her eyes, get to know her teachers and classmates with her eyes, and feel the normal world with her heart.
Jenny cherishes this hard-won opportunity to go to school. She poured all her gratitude into her study which was much more difficult than ordinary people.
Learning Chinese Pinyin has become Jenny's first and foremost difficulty. Some Pinyin can see the pronunciation parts, which is easy to imitate, but the root sounds like G, K and H can't see the pronunciation state of the mouthpiece at all. It's really hard for little Jenny. She asked the teacher to demonstrate again and again, and put her hand on the teacher's throat to feel the vibration; She asked her classmates for advice again and again, and practiced mouth to mouth and eye to eye. In order to pronounce "G", Jenny only wears a pair of shorts at home, standing in the bathroom with water on her back and practicing exhaling repeatedly. The shorts are soaked with water and sweat. She practiced like this for two weeks, and finally made a choking sound of "Brother, Brother". I'm afraid Jenny is the only one who knows how many times she choked on the sound, how hard she worked and how many tears she shed.
In class, she "listens" to the class with her eyes, which is more tiring than ordinary students. In a class of 4 minutes, many students can't help talking and making small moves, but Jenny always stares at a pair of focused eyes, never lets go of the teacher's slightest behavior, carefully grinds the teacher's gestures and mouth shapes, and actively raises her hand to answer questions.
Despite her unremitting efforts and all her efforts, Jenny still can't "understand" all her teachers and classmates. Often, during the break, Jenny just sits in her seat and stares at her classmates with vacant, anxious and envious eyes: some of them are joking in twos and threes, some are singing, and some are whispering. Jenny can't figure out what they are talking about and what beautiful songs they are singing, because the sound has long gone away from her. Although she lives in this world full of sound today, what she hears is still a terrible silence-it's desert helplessness and thirst! When she got home at night, she sobbed in her mother's arms and said, "I want to talk and laugh with my classmates!" " So, my mother told her the story of Helen Keller ... < P > In order to help Jenny overcome difficulties, overcome her inferiority complex and thrive, the school launched a series of activities around her. Her class carried out the activities of "I teach Jenny a word" and "I grow up with Jenny"; The school's Young Pioneers launched a team day activity of "growing up with love"; The Youth League organized a "Dream of the Great Wall" activity. Ten physically disabled children, including Jenny, visited the Great Wall in Beijing accompanied by young volunteers. Jenny stood on the Great Wall of the motherland and gloriously joined the Young Pioneers.
Just when Jane needed help most, dozens of college students from Jinan University and Jinan Normal School volunteered to be Jenny's tutor. These students ride bicycles to run more than 2 miles between Jenny's home and school every day after class. College students have changed from session to session, and each session has forged a deep friendship with Jenny. Many college students often come to see Jenny after taking up their jobs, and buy souvenirs for her first month's salary after work. Jenny, once a home full of despair and tears, is now full of laughter and warmth, and has become a happy home.
