也是一只自由泳的小鸟
“Though we used different signed languages, these Chinese Deaf people and I could make ourselves understood; and though we came from different countries, our mutual Deaf culture held us together. By the end of the evening we’d talked about Deaf life in China, and about Chinese politics.” I nodded. “You couldn’t do that in China,” he said. “No hearing person could. So who’s disabled then?”
Cece has actually spoken four times in her life, and every time the words were appropriate to the situation. When Cece was three, Betsy gave her a cookie; she pushed it back at her, saying, “You eat it, Mommy.” Jeff and Betsy exchanged glances and waited for their world to change. Cece said nothing more for a year. Then one day Betsy stood up to turn off the TV, and Cece said, “I want my TV.” At school, three years later, she turned on the lights and said, “Who left the lights on?” Then one day a puppeteer visited Cece’s class; when he asked, “Hey, kids! What color is the curtain?” Cece responded, “It’s purple.” The capacity to formulate and deliver these sentences suggests a tantalizing lucidity below the silence.
我突然想起小时候听到的一个笑话，说是一个小孩子一直不开口说话，家人都以为他哑巴，直到有一天吃饭的时候他说：菜太咸了。家人都惊了，问他之前怎么都不说话，他说之前没有什么好抱怨的。
我现在感觉这不是个笑话，这小孩是不是自闭症…
还有一个例子是一个小孩从来没有使用过语言，却在十三岁的时候开始打字
为什么这么多自闭症喜欢涂屎…已经听了三例了…
这本书是按病例分章节的，现在就是听完了“侏儒”觉得“聋”不是什么大毛病，听完“唐氏综合征”觉得“侏儒”不是大毛病，现在在听“自闭症”，感觉“唐氏综合征”也不是什么大毛病了
A study conducted at Yale found that in adults with autism or Asperger’s, the region of the brain activated during face processing corresponded to the region activated in nonautistic subjects during object processing. Autistic people with fixations, however, may recognize those in the area where most people register faces. So one autistic boy had the same region in his brain light up for his mother as for a teacup. But he was enthralled by Japanese Digimon characters, and when he saw those, the area where most of us process our intimate connections suddenly flashed on.
妈妈 = 茶杯，数码宝贝 = 亲密，这妈得多难过
这本书里的缩写太让我难受了，ASL = American Sign Language, AP = Average People, DS = Down Syndrom, FC = Facilitated Communication, EI = Early Intervention… 我明白你们业内人士这么叫方便，但是，呃，好难受，好讨厌缩写
嗯好像不讲话而是打字是自闭症常见症状…
怎讲，我也有那种完全没办法开口讲话，一定要打字的时候。也不是说我有自闭症那么严重，但感觉要是没有这样的经历的话就很难理解为什么明明可以讲话却选择不讲…
@Friedo 草，这是野史还是真的…确实有看到说爱因斯坦疑似阿斯伯格的说…
@unagi 嗯…但这本书里解释为德国人话少也挺搞笑的 
@[email protected] fc=full combo!
@[email protected] 抱歉音游人一下激动了没交代上下文 😆
@unagi 我看到这条po也觉得好难受因为这些缩写还和我日常通用的完全不一样！对我来说 ASL = Azienda Sanitaria Locale (地方卫生局), AP = Applied Physics, DS = Data Science...
@naroix 点头如捣蒜，随便查个什么缩写维基平均就有十个不同词条
@naroix 啊我才发现你头像上那件衣服上写的是 fuck you 吗
@unagi 哈哈哈你不说我都没发现耶！！！！
腐坏铆菇
虽然早就听说阿斯伯格人倾向于理解字面意思，但也没想到能字面到这个地步…
