第二次全国残疾人抽样调查数据显示,中国的听力残疾人达到2780万。
2020年底,在这些听力残疾人中出现了中国第一位聋人律师,她的名字叫谭婷。
谭婷八岁时患上了中耳炎,但是因为不恰当的治疗,最后失去了听力,变成了聋人。
她开始学习适应没有声音的世界,五年后,才进入特殊教育学校。
谭婷的成长期是中国特殊教育刚开始发展的时候,全国各地有各种各样的特殊学校,教学质量、教材的使用等都参差不齐。
但是谭婷很努力,把所有的时间都拿来学习,读到高中时,整个年级只剩四个人了。
高考后,她成功考进了重庆师范大学的特殊教育专业,成为了那一年这个高中唯一的大学生。
按计划,谭婷可能会成为一名特殊教育老师。
但是一个偶然的机会,她看到了招聘聋人作为律师助理的信息,这让她喜出望外,并定下了成为律师的目标。
想要成为律师,必须通过国家司法考试。
这个考试对于普通人来说都很难,通过率仅为10%,这对聋人的难度会更大。
因为聋人对于很多常识的理解会比普通人更难。
谭婷自从开始准备司法考试之后,每天早上六点学习到晚上十点。
因为各种压力,和她一起准备考试的很多人都渐渐放弃了。
谭婷失败了两次,终于在第三次通过了考试。
因为谭婷是聋人,所以她或许是中国40万律师里唯一不能上庭的。
她的工作将主要集中在法庭下。
她想让更多聋人有健全的法律知识,减少聋人们的困难。
现在,她成为了聋人和普通人的桥梁,努力让更多聋人能“听见”。
