Superhero helps boy wear hearing aid
“感谢我的助听器,我听到有人陷入麻烦了”
A Southamption youngster had a superhero named in his honour - after his mum asked Marfvel Comics to help get him to wear his hearing aid.
一个来自英国修咸顿的小男孩得到了一个超级英雄的帮助,他的妈妈为了让他戴上助听器,而求助于一家漫画公司。
Anthony Smith's mother Christina wrote to the US comic giant after the youngster refused to wear the device to school.
由于史密斯拒绝戴上他的助听器去学校,所以他的妈妈克里斯蒂娜向一家美国漫画巨头发去了求助信。
The four-year-old, who recently moved from Hampshire to New Hampshire in the US, told his worried mum that "superheroes do not wear hearing aids".
这名四岁的男孩最近刚刚和他的家人从英国的汉普郡搬到美国的新罕布什州,他对他焦急的妈妈说“超级英雄都是不戴助听器的”。
Within 24 hours, she received a 1984 comic book featuring superhero Hawkeye wearing a hearing aid after suffering temporary deafness.
在还不到一天的时间里,克里斯蒂娜就收到了一本1984年的漫画书,里面有关于一个鹰眼巨人由于暂时性耳聋而戴上助听器的画面和内容。
And Marvel also created a new character 'The Blue Ear', which was Anthony's nickname for his hearing aid.
由于史密斯的助听器的昵称叫做“蓝耳”,所以这家漫画公司还特地以”蓝耳”为名字创造了一个新角色。
Marvel editor Thomas Brennan said: "Our job is to make kids like Anthony believe in heroes and we will do that job."
该漫画公司的编辑托马斯说:“我们的工作就是让像史密斯这样的孩子们信任英雄,所以这是我们应该做的。”
Little Anthony, who now happily wears his aid to school, suffers from a rare genetic disorder which severely affects his hearing.
小史密斯现在已经开开心心戴着助听器去学校了,他患有先天的遗传病,这严重地影响了他的听力。
His dad Kevin, 41, said: "Anthony is a massive fan of superheroes, especially Spiderman, Captain America and The Avengers.
他41岁的爸爸凯文说:“史密斯是一个超级英雄粉丝,尤其是蜘蛛侠,美国队长和复仇者联盟。”
"One day he told my wife that superheroes don't wear blue ears. We decided to contact Marvel to find out if any of them do.
“有一天他告诉我的妻子说超级英雄都不戴“蓝耳”的,所以我们决定联系这家漫画公司看是否有超级英雄戴助听器的情况。”
"We were amazed and thrilled by what they did for us. We are so proud of him and happy that Marvel did this amazing gesture for us."
“我们对他们对我们做的事情感到很惊讶和激动。他们能这么对待我们,我们真的很高兴,也很骄傲。”
