单选题
单选题 I lost my sight when I was four years old by falling
off a box car in a freight yard in Atlantic City and landing on my head. Now I
am thirty-two. I can vaguely remember the brightness of sunshine and what color
red is. It would be wonderful to see again, but a calamity can do strange things
to people. It occurred to me the other day that I might not have come to love
life as I do if I hadn't been blind. I believe in life now. I am not so sure
that I would have believed in it so deeply, otherwise. I don't mean that I would
prefer to go without my eyes. I simply mean that the loss of them made me
appreciate the more what I had left. Life, I believe, asks a
continuous series of adjustments to reality. The more readily a person is able
to make these adjustments, the more meaningful his own private world becomes.
The adjustment is never easy. I was bewildered and afraid. But I was lucky. My
parents and my teachers saw something in me—a potential to live, you might call
it—which I didn't see, and they made me want to fight it out with
blindness. The hardest lesson I had to learn was to believe in
myself. That was basic. If I hadn't been able to do that, I would have collapsed
and become a chair rocker on the front porch for the rest of my life. When I say
belief in myself I am not talking about simply the kind of self confidence that
helps me down an unfamiliar staircase alone. That is part of it. But I mean
something bigger than that: an assurance that I am, despite imperfections, a
real, positive person; that somewhere in the sweeping, intricate pattern of
people there is a special place where I can make myself fit. It
took me years to discover and strengthen this assurance. It had to start with
the most elementary things. Once a man gave me an indoor baseball. I thought he
was mocking me and I was hurt. "I can't use this." I said. "Take it with you,"
he urged me, "and roll it around." The words stuck in my head. "Roll it around!"
By rolling the ball I could hear where it went. This gave me an idea how to
achieve a goal I had thought impossible: playing baseball. At Philadelphia's
Overbrook School for the Blind I invented a successful variation of baseball. We
called it ground ball. All my life I have set ahead of me a
series of goals and then tried to reach them, one at a time. I had to learn my
limitations. It was no good to try for something I knew at the start was wildly
out of reach because that only invited the bitterness of failure. I would fail
sometimes anyway but on the average I made progress.
