When I was 13 years old, the doctor said that I had a kind of attention disorder. So when everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I couldn’t.

In my first class, Mrs Green asked us to read a story and then write on it within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs Green, you see, I have attention problems. I might not be able to do that.” She looked at me and said, “You are no different from your classmates, young man.” I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading. So I took it home.

In my bedroom, it was so quiet and the story suddenly became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system which opened up a new world to the blind.Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted (有視力的)” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was no different from others. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs Green, so when it came back to me the next day with an “A” on it, I couldn’t believe my eyes. At the bottom of the paper were these words, “See what you can do when you keep trying.”

1.What problem did the writer have at the age of 13?

A. He had a problem with the doctor. B. He couldn’t focus his attention.

C. His teacher gave no tasks to him. D. It was hard for him to understand the teacher in class.

2.What did Mrs Green do after hearing the writer’s words?

A. She told the writer to think it over at home. B. She believed what the writer said to her.

C. She asked the writer to finish the reading soon. D. She encouraged the writer to do as well as others.

3.What can we know about Louis Braille from the passage?

A. He was a blind man with an attention disorder.

B. He played an important role in the world of the blind people.

C. He thought he was different from others.

D. He finally gave up getting education.

4.How did the writer feel when he got his paper at last?
