Some open a bakery to realize their childhood dream. For Zheng Xiaoyan, founder of Silent Bread Tree, the main reason she chose to do so is less common.The idea to open a bakery emerged when Zheng learned from a silent friend in a baking course about the difficulties they face in job hunting. She began to wonder what she could do for them, until she got inspiration from the success of a bakery in Changsha, which is run by a German couple that hires silent people. “I decided that I would also open a bakery like theirs to help some silent people in need,” told Zheng. “And that’s why I named it ‘Silent Bread Tree’. Hopefully the jobs provided here can help the silent people feed themselves, just like bread trees feed people with their bread-like fruit,” Zheng added.The bakery has 16 employees, six of whom are hearing and speech-impaired (有…障碍的). The principle here is to treat all staffs in the same way wherever possible, and avoid signs indicating which staff members are different. “When we asked whether to put the words ‘Pat me if you need help’ on the back of their uniform, our silent staffs said ‘No’. That was when I realized that they just don’t want others to know they’re different,” Zheng recalled.Although knowing what she could do for the silent community is very limited, Zheng said the efforts the silent staffs have made to keep the bakery running keep inspiring her to do even more. For every product sold, the bakery donates 0.01 yuan to help provide artificial cochlea implants (人工耳蜗) to the hearing and speech-impaired children in rural areas.“If hearing-impaired children could have artificial cochleae implants at an early age, their lives could be completely transformed. They would be able to live like people with no difficulties in hearing,” said Zheng. 24. Why did Zheng open the bakery?A. To offer the silent people jobs.B. To make her dream come true.C. To turn her hobby into a career. D. To learn from the German couple.25. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A. The story about the bread tree. B. The meaning of the bakery name.C. Zheng’s expectation of the future. D. Zheng’s satisfaction with her store.26. What can we learn about the silent staffs from paragraph 4?A. They value equal treatment. B. They enjoy great social respect.C. They consider customers disturbing. D. They have poor communication skills.27. Which word best describes。
