How much do you know about stuttering?
Isobel 2022-04-21 09:01:15
1. There are 13 million stutterers in China; 2. Stuttering can only be accepted and controlled, but not cured (innumerable Chinese stuttering correction institutions are taking these stuttering people as big bucks and cheating money, who can say whether they have thoroughly Have you ever cured even a stutterer?); 3. There are too many jokes in life that make fun of stuttering, but how many people have observed the distress of stutterers? (How to compare the distress? Who said that worrying about food and clothing is more serious than the distress of stuttering?) 4. There are many talents among stutterers. Stuttering is a flaw of impatience, but it cannot stop the pursuit of dreams; 5. At least for these stutterers, this film makes more sense; 6. Oscar can focus on all kinds of people.

King George VI: ...a sieve of thisted siffles!
-
King George VI: In this grave hour, perhaps the most fateful in our history, I send to every household of my peoples, both at home and overseas, this message, spoken with the same depth of feeling for each one of you, as if I were able to cross your threshold and speak to you myself: For the second time in the lives of most of us, we are at... at war. Over and over again we have tried to find a peaceful way out of the differences between ourselves and those who are now our enemies, but it has been in vain. We have been forced into a conflict, for we are called to meet the challenge of a principle, which, if it were to prevail, would be fatal to any civilized order in the world. Such a principle, stripped of all disguise, is surely the mere primitive doctrine that "might is right." For the sake of all that we ourselves hold dear, it is unthinkable that we should refuse to meet the challenge. It is to this high purpose that I now call my people at home, and my peoples across the seas, who will make our cause their own. I ask them to stand calm and firm and united in this time of trial. The task will be hard. There may be dark days ahead, and war can no longer be confined to the battlefield, but we can only do the right as we see the right, and reverently commit our cause to God. If one and all we keep resolutely faithful to it, then, with God's help, we shall prevail.
