       That morning, I got on the train as always. I was a publishing director and was reading my newspaper   41  . But that day, I read it very   42  . I thought I must be tired. At the office, I sat down, turned on my     43   and found I couldn’t read the message on the screen.        Eventually, worried  44   drove me to hospital. There, confirmation came that I suffered from aphasia(失语症), a condition that  45   it’s difficult or impossible to receive and produce language.        I was back at home a week later, and my  46  was to get better and return to work in a couple of months. I started  47  a speech therapist(治疗专家) three times a week, and was given homework to help    48  my vocabulary and grammar. After a month, my own speech became   49  —“Could you pass the salt?” “Shall we go for a walk?” — but I couldn’t have a conversation. I couldn’t read the newspaper.        For 25 years, I was used to a(n)   50   day of meetings, and bringing three manuscripts home with me each night. I didn’t feel   51   to say goodbye to my old self.        In the darkest months, I devoted myself to  52  . I would spend hours writing a description of something   53   like a pencil. I couldn’t   54  novels or newspapers, so I tried reading poetry, and found the shorter lines easier to   55  . My speech came back, and I learned how to read again,   56   much more slowly. I spent more time with my family, and   57  myself to slow down.        Now, 10 years later, my relationship with my   58  is deeper than ever. We have  59   to be very patient with each other. I’m no longer a high-achieving publisher or someone who  60  10 books a week. I’m a family man with aphasia, and if I read 10 books a year, that’s good. 41.
