9、之二十，也就是現(xiàn)在的情況。我的醫(yī)生曾預(yù)估我到現(xiàn)在應(yīng)該全聾了，所以我覺得自己的情況還不錯(cuò)。2我小的時(shí)候家里總是放著音樂。我非常喜歡聽金屬制品樂隊(duì)、齊柏林飛船樂隊(duì)、鮑勃馬利和邁克爾杰克遜的歌。我爸爸是個(gè)打碟師，所以他會(huì)放迪斯科、民樂、舞曲、搖滾和外國(guó)音樂。為慶賀我的十八歲生日，我爸爸請(qǐng)我到他的飯館去做打碟師。幾個(gè)星期下來，我著了迷。我想再多學(xué)點(diǎn)兒。3二十五歲的時(shí)候，我就給著名的紐約城打碟師謝夫迪發(fā)了電子郵件。我寫道：“我知道你喜歡挑戰(zhàn)。教教

10、一個(gè)聾子做打碟師怎么樣？”第二天他就回復(fù)了：“接受挑戰(zhàn)?！彼恐軆纱谓o我做個(gè)別輔導(dǎo)，時(shí)間長(zhǎng)達(dá)兩年，幫助我掌握正確的技巧。我每天都會(huì)練習(xí)四個(gè)小時(shí)。如今我表演時(shí)，各種動(dòng)作已變得流暢自如。4我剛開始在夜總會(huì)做打碟師的時(shí)候，總是瞞著經(jīng)理們，不告訴他們我耳聾。我徑直到場(chǎng)，自我介紹，然后就開始打碟。夜里收工時(shí)，人家說，“這是給你的支票?！倍艺f，“什么？我耳聾。”這時(shí)他們總是非常驚訝。有時(shí)候我會(huì)帶上醫(yī)生的證明因?yàn)樗麄儾幌嘈盼摇Ｋ麄冋?qǐng)我主持是因?yàn)槲业?/p>
