(2017·¸ß¿¼È«¹úпαê¾í¢ñ) While high school does not generally encourage students to explore new aspects of life, college sets the stage for that exploration. I myself went through this __1__ process and found something that has changed my __2__ at college for the better: I discovered ASL — American Sign Language(ÃÀʽÊÖÓï)£®

I never felt an urge to __3__ any sign language before. My entire family is hearing, and so are all my friends. The __4__ languages were enough in all my interactions(½»Íù). Little did I know that I would discover my __5__ for ASL.

The __6__ began during my first week at college. I watched as the ASL Club __7___ their translation of a song. Both the hand movements and the very __8__ of communicating without speaking __9__ me. What I saw was completely unlike anything I had experienced in the __10__. This newness just left me __11__ more.

After that, feeling the need to __12__ further, I decided to drop in on one of ASL Club's meetings. I only learned how to __13__ the alphabet that day. Yet instead of being discouraged by my __14__ progress, I was excited. I then made it a point to __15__ those meetings and learn all I could.

The following term, I __16__ an ASL class. The professor was deaf and any talking was ___17__. I soon realized that the silence was not unpleasant. __18__£¬ if there had been any talking, it would have __19__ us to learn less. Now, I appreciate the silence and the __20__ way of communication it opens.
