【題目】 A warm story has been taking place on one end of Islington Road.

Glenda and Raphael Savitz met with each other in 2011 in Boston. They fell in love and got married in the fall of 2013. In the summer of 2016, the couple moved to Auburndale, Florida. Three months later, their daughter Samantha was born..

However, within a week, the doctor told them that their newborn baby was deaf. It was a hard blow to the couple. What should they do? They had no choice but to help her learn sign language. "We are going to learn it, too. It is important for her growth and development," the mother said.

But they didn't expect it when their neighbors all started to learn sign language. " We were excited that this new baby was coming," said Jill McNeil, one of the neighbors. "But it's frustrating （令人沮喪的）not to be able to say, " Oh, Samantha, I love your pretty pink pants. " To communicate with the cute girl, they had to know her language. So these neighbors hired a tutor without letting Glenda and Raphael know.
