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. To make the sign for the word fine, a person spreads out the fingers on one hand,   8   the thumb(拇指) to the chest(前胸) , and moves the hand away from the chest. Signing is not just done with the hands. 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 !”
