That morning, I got on the train as always. I was a publishing director and was reading my newspaper 1. But that day, I read it very 2. I thought I must be tired. At the office, I sat down, turned on my 3 and found I couldn't read the message on the screen.
Finally, worried4 drove me to hospital. There, confirmation came that I suffered from aphasia(失语症), a condition that5 it's difficult or impossible to receive and produce language.
I was back at home a week later, and my6was to get better and return to work in a couple of months. I started 7a speech therapist(治疗专家) three times a week, and was given homework to help 8my vocabulary and grammar. After a month, my own speech became 9—“Could you pass the salt?” “Shall we go for a walk?” — but I couldn't have a conversation. I couldn't read the newspaper.
For 25 years, I was used to a(n) 10 day of meetings, and bringing three manuscripts home with me each night. I didn't feel 11 to say goodbye to my old self.
In the darkest months, I devoted myself to12. I would spend hours writing a description of something 13 like a pencil. I couldn't 14novels or newspapers, so I tried reading poetry, and found the shorter lines easier to 15. My speech came back, and I learned how to read again,16 much more slowly. I spent more time with my family, and 17myself to slow down.
Now, 10 years later, my relationship with my 18 is deeper than ever. We have19 to be very patient with each other. I'm no longer a high-achieving publisher or someone who2010 books a week. I'm a family man with aphasia, and if I read 10 books a year, that's good.
