Bridging the gap
How does a principal investigator make communication among deaf and hearing colleagues easier? Moreover, how are the large number of field-specific technical terms _______— and communicated in sign language? These _______ differences are not remarkably challenging to work around.
Blumberg taught himself American Sign Language and has interpreters _______ in the lab during the day. For lab meetings, journal clubs and research seminars, he has two interpreters present t0 tag-team signing. Costs for the interpreters are _______ by the NIH's Office of Research Services. The only learning curve that he experienced, Blumberg says, was realizing he needed _______ interpreters, Before, when he had one deaf student, he could _______ the interpreting. As more deaf fellows joined, Blumberg _______ full-time interpreters for help.
Having interpreters around all day is not necessary though. " _______ . interpreters are only needed during the day if we're having lab meeting, classes, important functions or events, or _______ -poster presentations, student presentations, guest presentations from ________________ scientists, Lundberg says. "The rest of the day, I do not need an interpreter, ________________ I'm in lab and it's independent work.”
During his Ph.D. at the University of Minnesota, Lundberg used online chat platforms to ________________ with his adviser and colleagues. Or he wrote ________________ a whiteboard, scratch paper, or paper towels. His adviser later ________________ that he keep the scraps of paper, which “was really good advice," Lundberg says, "because they were really good notes."
The best way to arrange the most suitable accommodations for deaf individuals is to ask them ________________ they need, says Derek Braun, a former postdoctoral fellow with Blumberg and currently a professor of biology at Gallaudet University. One of his ongoing projects is a collaboration with Blumberg and Lundberg to investigate the role of Ras guanyl nucleotide (鸟苷核苷酸) — releasing proteins in cancer. ________________ deaf people sign, Braun says. "Some are oral. Really, we come in every flavor imaginable. The best judge of what that person needs is usually the person?
Signing scientific terms is not unusually challenging either. While no standardized set of signs for technical words exists, colleagues working in the same lab develop their own signs for the terms they frequently use. If each lab develops signs ________________, what happens when members of different labs meet?
Larry Pearce, a technician in Blumberg’s lab ________________ is deaf, explains to me, “ It's really not that difficult, because when an individual does not understand a sign we use, they'll ask for clarifications (说明) and I'll finger-spell.

Egypt: Bridging the Gap between School English and Real English
Teaching English in Egypt in general and in my town Damietta in particular, is mainly directed towards helping students to pass their final exams. Unfortunately, most teachers do not adopt a long -term approach that guarantees that their students will be able to use English outside the classroom. So students only concentrate on one skill which is writing. Thus their listening and speaking skills are disabled. What is important to them is to pass the exam which is primarily based on writing .Teachers are not only concentrated with providing their students with questions that are similar to those of the final exam, particularly General Secondary Education Certificate (GSEC) Examination, so students spend most of their time answering typical exam questions.
Most students' scores are high; a lot of students get full marks. However, few students are able to communicate in English because their role plays. As a result, a lot of students complain that they are unable to understand and talk fluently with native speakers of English.
To enable students to communicate freely and spontaneously(自然地) in English, I bring features of real communication into language practice, I always ask students about their own experiences, and suggest groups of students practice what they have learned outside the classroom. This helps lower-achieving students absorb language. Furthermore, role play is a very effective way to improve speaking skills particularly if it is connected to the experience of the students.
