Orlando Bloom is a famous actor ( 演 員 ), but his life was not always successful.

When he was at the age of seven, the doctor said he was a boy with dyslexia-difficulty in reading. It made his school years very difficult. His mother tried to make him think it was something special and he was going to be great with it, but he often felt stupid and useless. He never let his classmates know how difficult school was for him, but young Orlando was often angry and frustrated, because of his difficulty in reading. His mother helped him a lot at home, and he took many after-school classes and studied hard, but his mind moved faster than the words could come out. He says that he “had to work three times as hard to get 1/3 of the way.” He never read aloud.

Then Bloom found acting and learned it for three years at the acting school. He met a great teacher there. He told Bloom to learn the thoughts ( 思想) and forget the words. Playing different roles (角色) helped him very much. Through acting, Bloom could overcome (戰(zhàn)勝) his dyslexia. And he wanted tobe an actor from then on.

Bloom asks kids with dyslexia never to worry about it but to find other ways to get success. “If you can overcome this difficulty, you are going to be much successful than anyone else.” Bloom says.
