20、s born deaf, and his parents moved from Mexico to find a school where he could learn sign language. He met Orlando on their first day of kindergarten.“We were in a special class with about 25 other deaf kids,” German remembers. “Before then, I didnt know I was deaf and that I was different.”“Being y

21、oung and deaf in regular classes was very hard,” signs Orlando. “The other kids didnt understand us and we didnt understand them. But weve all grown up together, and today, Im popular because Im deaf. Kids try hard to communicate with me.”Some things are very difficult for the two boys.“We cant talk

22、 on the phone, so if we need help, we cant call an emergency service,” German signs. “And we cant order food in a drive-thru.”Despite their difficulties, the two boys have found work putting food in bags at a local supermarket.

26、ms for the deaf.CImmigration is the act of coming to a foreign country to live. The act of leaving ones country to settle in another is called emigration. Immigrants who flee their country because of persecution, war, or such disasters as famines or epidemics are known as refugees or displaced perso

27、ns. Most people find it very hard to pull up roots in their native land and move to a strange country. But throughout history, countless millions of people have done so. The heaviest immigration worldwide took place from the early 1800s to the Great Depression, the economic hard times of the 1930s.

28、In that period, about 60 million people moved to a new land. Most came from Europe. More than half immigrated to the United States. Other destinations included Canada, Argentina, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa. Today, the availability of fast, safe, and cheap transportation helps m

29、ake migration easier. Asia is replacing Europe as the major immigrant-sending area. The United States remains the chief receiving nation. People abandon their homeland and move to another country for various reasons. The main reason for immigration has long been economic opportunity-the desire for b

33、to the Western Hemisphere as slaves. The United Kingdom transported prisoners to Australia from the late 1700s to the 1860s to relieve over crowding in British jails. Before that time, the United Kingdom sent prisoners to the American colonies.Immigrants have made enormous contributions to the cultu

34、re and economy of such nations as Australia, Canada, New Zealand the United States. But their accomplishments have been made with great difficulty. At times, the United States, like many receiving countries, has restricted immigration to maintain a more homogeneous society in which all the people sh

35、are the same ethnic, geographic, and cultural background. Although some immigration laws have been relaxed, many new comers of different backgrounds still face challenges in gaining acceptance.28.

39、said on its micro blog on Wednesday that it will investigate the incident, which it said many have found disturbing.Bis programs will stop being broadcast until at least Sunday, as his comments in the video have seriously damaged the broadcasters image, Huaxi Metropolis Daily quoted a CCTV staff mem

40、ber as saying.The CCTV employee said it is uncertain whether the programs can be broadcast again after Sunday, the report added.Bi, 56, is popular for a hosting style that engages the audience. He has hosted the CCTV Spring Festival Gala since 2012, as well as a popular talent show involving Western

41、ers speaking Chinese. The cancellation was the first decision after Nie Chenxi was named CCTV president on Tuesday, the report said, adding that Nie had ordered all staff members to strictly correct work styles.A micro-blogger named Zhou Junchi said that free speech doesnt mean it is OK to defame ot

42、hers, adding that Bis comments were not proper for a popular host. Cheng Manli, a professor specializing in communication at Peking University, echoed Zhou, saying Bi should pay more attention to his behavior and speech as a public figure.“It does not mean we cannot share our opinions, but using ugl

43、y words and sarcasm to comment on Chinese leaders who have passed away is improper,” Cheng said.“The actions and words of celebrities are easily broadened in todays Internet era, which is open and can have a huge influence, so it is a must for the public figures to boost the quality of their speech
