THE INFLUENCE OF ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL
Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone and became a very famous man He also wrote an article which he presented in 1883 His research paper was about deaf people
In his article, Dr Bell explained why there were so many deaf children He believed that when deaf adults married each other, they would have (41) children He thought that this was bad Bell blamed the schools for the deaf for causing marriages between deaf people He did not like the idea of these intermarriages and tried to think of ways to (42) them He would have preferred that deaf children be taught at hearing schools He did not (43) schools or the deaf Bell felt that deaf people would not mix with hearing people if they went to (44) schools
Bell was (45) about other things, too He noticed that deaf people socialized with other deaf people He felt that socializing with other deaf people was bad Deaf people should socialize with hearing people, he thought bell tried to start a new law that would make it illegal for deaf people to marry each other He (46) up his idea when he realized that such a law could not be enforced
Bell also had strong feelings about the (47) of deaf children He wanted deaf children
to be with hearing children in school He thought that the deaf children could learn normal behavior from the hearing children Bell was against the use of deaf teachers, too, because he thought this added to the (48) of a deaf "race" in America
Bell had another theory, which he never proved He believed that deaf children who signed would not have good English (49) He could never prove this, and now many people have tried to prove the opposite! A lot of new research shows that many deaf children whose parents sign (and are deaf) do (50) schoolwork than deaf children who do not sign at home!
