Mr. Klein told the class that a new student, Inez, would join them soon. He 1 that Inez was deaf. She “talked” with others by using sign language. Mr. Klein knew sign language, and he decided to teach 2 students so that they could also “talk” with Inez. First, they learned to sign the letters. Some letters were hard to 3 . Other letters, such as C ,were easier because the shape of the hand was the same as the shape of the letter. The 4 thing they learned was finer spelling. They signed one letter after another to spell a word. They 5 with two-letter words such as at and on . Then they spelled 6 words. Finally, Mr. Klein showed that 7 one sign could be used for a whole word.

Expressions on the face are also 9 . The students learned to sign a question mark by using expressions on the face. When Inez first entered the classroom. She looked 10 . But the students signed, “Good morning, Inez. ” She gave the class a big smile and signed back, “What a wonderful welcome !” 小题1: A．hoped B．said C．guessed D．thought 小题2: A．his B．my C．her D．our 小题3: A．spell B．check C．remember D．write 小题4: A．first B．only C．last D．next 小题5: A．met B．started C．agreed D．helped 小题6: A．newer B．easier C．longer D．nice 小题7: A．never B．perhaps C．still D．just 小题8: A．joins B．fixed C．touches D．ties 小题9: A．important B．different C．difficult D．strange 小题10: A．serious B．surprised C．frightened D．nervous
