摘要
四岁那年在大西洋城,我从货运场的一辆棚车上摔下来,头先着地,于是双目失明。现在我已经32岁了,我还模糊地记得阳光是多么灿烂,红色是多么鲜艳。能恢复视力固然好,但灾难也能对人产生奇妙的作用。几天前我突然想到,倘若我不是盲人,我或许不会变得像现在这样热爱生活。现在我对生活充满信心.
I lost my sight when I was four years old by falling off a boxcar 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 red color is. It would be wonderful to see again, but a calamity can do strange things to people.
