  Russ was a lovable kid with a variety of communi?cation challenges—a speech impediment (口吃，結(jié)巴) ， dyslexia(誦讀困難) ，and auditory(聽覺的) problems.

1       today he is walking confidently,standing tall to make an acceptance 2        for having been chosen as one of " the Outstanding Young Citizens" in Ocean County,New Jersey 3        his remarkable volunteer service in the town of Toms River.

  As I listened* I closed my eyes. I found myself 4        those memorable moments. My mind was full of warm images of Russ as a loving,caring youth,a gen?tle soul,5       his challenges. And now,as he stood at the platform,I knew his heart 6        be racing. As Russ continued to speak,I thought about the fateful day when he was diagnosed with all those impairments (損傷) and how 7        his tutors (家庭教師) would be if they could see him today. Here he was at twentynine,being honoured for ten years of service as a vol?unteer 8       .     Russ was 9        for organizing clothing for the homeless,teaching preschool children about fire safety,and for playing Santa Claus for very sick chil?dren by driving up in a fire truck.

Russ thanked his parents for providing him with dignity and teaching him about morals. Then,pausing for a few seconds,he 10       us by surprise by touch?ing lovingly on the 11        of his nephew,Austin. Austin was just three years old when he died from an incurable disease. At that moment,I had to close my eyes again 12       a different set of tears ran down my cheeks. A silence 13        the room as Russ owed his volunteer award to Austin. He 14       his address by lifting the audience up with these words , "Austin taught me how to love."

  I have never thought of this day. 15      ,no one had ever thought that Russ would make 16        as the star of the football team,and he had never been voted "most likely to succeed", but he 17        to be a true "star" in his community. Russ became a man of strong character 18        his unselfish service to others. With so many impairments,Russ now sees and acts 19        with his heart.  His words and deeds inspire everyone who knows him. It is Russ,our        son,who has shown us what 20        is.
