    Bing Xin was born in Fuzhou, Fujian, but moved toShanghai with her family when she was seven months old, and later moved yetagain to the coastal port city of Yantai, Shandong, when she was four.Such a move had akey influence on Bing Xin's personality and philosophy (哲学)of love and beauty, as the hugeness and beauty of the sea greatly opened youngBing Xin's mind and heart.

She then returned to Yanjing University to teach until1936.

Do you like reading? If so, El Deafocan be a good choice for you to enjoy. It is {#blank#}1{#/blank#} a little girl called Cece. She has become one of {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (popular) cartoon heroes among American young readers recently. 

At the age of four, Cece loses her hearing because of{#blank#}3{#/blank#} serious illness. Her world has changed a lot since then. After returning home from the hospital, her family moves to a small town and she enters a new school there. To help her hear better at school, Cece{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(give) a special hearing aid machine: the Phonic Ear. At the same time, there's a microphone for her teacher to wear. So whenever the teacher{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(talk), Cece can hear her very clearly. With this "super hearing", she gets a superhero name—EI Deafo. 

As being different, some children always laugh at her. {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(luck), there are a group of friends{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(stand) by her side. Thanks to {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(they) help, Cece has got enough courage. She can get over those{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(difficulty) little by little. 

Like other good books for young people, this story makes us think about{#blank#}10{#/blank#} we should act in such situations. And it helps us understand that learning to care about others is important in our life.
