参考答案:
One blind American student recently made news because he graduated from medical school at the University of Wisconsin.  Tim Cordes (pronounced COR-diss) says technology was one of the reasons he succeeded.  He used a computer that read into his earpiece what he was typing.  He also used a small printer that permitted him to write notes about his patients in the hospital.  He did his undergraduate work at the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana.
National Federation of the Blind officials say blind students from other nations do come to the United States to attend college.  Some can even get financial aid. The N.F.B. awards about thirty scholarships each year that have no citizenship requirement.  The applications for scholarships are closed for next year.
However, information about such aid and other services can be found at its web site, nfb.org. N.F.B. officials say blind students interested in attending college in the United States should communicate with the schools they want to attend.  College officials will provide them with the information they need.
