Question

【題目】

Everyone faces difficulties in their life. Daniel Kish was born with a special eye illness and lost his eyesight before he was only 14 months old.

Soon after, however, he started to do an amazing thing. He learned to make clicks(咔噠聲) with his tongue to help him move around. Kish now moves about using sonar(聲吶). He is so good at it that he can ride a bicycle by himself on public roads. And he started the organization World Access for the Blind(WAFTB) in 2000, teaching others how to use sonar. In the interview with National Geographic, he explains how the sonar works.

“When I make a click sound, it produces sound waves. These waves reflect(反射) off surfaces all around and return to my ears. My brain then deals with the sound and turns it into pictures in my mind. Each click is like a camera flash, which helps me make a 3-D picture of my surroundings for hundreds of feet. It’s like having a conversation with the environment.”

Kish feels it is exciting to ride a bike using a sonar, although he needs to click twice a second, much more than he usually does. “It may sound a bit dangerous to move around the world in this way,” he says. “But most people in the world live in fear of things that they imagine. I love hiking and mountain-biking. I go almost everywhere. And I’ve never had an accident and hurt myself.”

He is happy to be able to help more blind children to improve their life. “We’ve served over 10, 000 students in nearly 40 countries,” he tells the reporter. “Many students are surprised how quickly results come. Seeing isn’t in the eyes. It’s in the mind.”

本文講述丹尼爾．基什的故事，告訴人們要勇敢地生活。基什出生時患有一種特殊的眼疾，14個月大失明。不久之后，他學(xué)會了用舌頭發(fā)出咔噠聲來幫助他四處走動�；�什現(xiàn)在開始使用聲納。他擅長騎車，在公路上可以自己騎自行車。他于2000年成立了世界盲人通道組織（WAFTB），教其他人如何使用聲納。世界上大多數(shù)人生活在他們想象的事物的恐懼中，基什周游世界從來沒有出過事故，也沒有傷過自己。他很高興能夠幫助更多的失明兒童改善他們的生活。他已經(jīng)為近40個國家的10000多名學(xué)生提供了服務(wù)。

【1】考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段第二句Daniel Kish was born with a special eye illness and lost his eyesight before he was only 14 months old.（丹尼爾基什出生時患有一種特殊的眼疾，在他只有14個月大之前就失去了視力。）可知丹尼爾．基什看不見世界，結(jié)合第2段第3句Kish now moves about using sonar（基什現(xiàn)在開始使用聲納走動）可知基什用聲納四處移動是因為它使他“看到”世界；可知選B。

【2】考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。題意：以下哪項是正確的聲納工作順序？①The sound waves reflect off surfaces. 聲波從表面反射；②The person makes a clicking sound. 發(fā)出咔噠聲；③The brain turns the sound into pictures. 大腦將聲音轉(zhuǎn)化為圖像；④The sound waves reach the person’s ears. 聲波傳到人的耳朵。根據(jù)第3段When I make a click sound, it produces sound waves. These waves reflect(反射) off surfaces all around and return to my ears. My brain then deals with the sound and turns it into pictures in my mind. Each click is like a camera flash, which helps me make a 3-D picture of my surroundings for hundreds of feet. It’s like having a conversation with the environment（當(dāng)我發(fā)出咔噠聲時，它會產(chǎn)生聲波。這些波從周圍的表面反射回來并傳回我的耳朵。然后我的大腦處理聲音，并在我的腦海中把它變成圖片。每一次點(diǎn)擊就像一個照相機(jī)閃光燈，它幫助我對周圍數(shù)百英尺的環(huán)境進(jìn)行三維拍攝。就像和環(huán)境對話一樣）可知正確順序是②①④③；選B。

【3】考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第2段第4句And he started the organization World Access for the Blind(WAFTB) in 2000, teaching others how to use sonar.（他于2000年成立了世界盲人通道組織（WAFTB），教其他人如何使用聲納。）可知“世界盲人通道組織（WAFTB）教其他人如何使用聲納”；故選C。

【4】考查主旨理解。本文講述丹尼爾．基什的故事�；�什出生時患有一種特殊的眼疾，14個月大失明。不久之后，他學(xué)會了用舌頭發(fā)出咔噠聲來幫助他四處走動。基什現(xiàn)在開始使用聲納。他擅長騎車，在公路上可以自己騎自行車。他于2000年成立了世界盲人通道組織（WAFTB），教其他人如何使用聲納。世界上大多數(shù)人生活在他們想象的事物的恐懼中，基什周游世界從來沒有出過事故，也沒有傷過自己。他很高興能夠幫助更多的失明兒童改善他們的生活。他已經(jīng)為近40個國家的10000多名學(xué)生提供了服務(wù)。根據(jù)本文主要內(nèi)容可知這篇文章最好的標(biāo)題可能是勇敢地生活，故選A。

閱讀理解是最能體現(xiàn)學(xué)生的英語能力的題型，分值較高。如何通過掌握解題方法來提升自己解答閱讀理解題的速度和準(zhǔn)確率是學(xué)生最關(guān)心的問題。初中閱讀理解一般考查學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解能力、主旨理解能力和推理判斷能力。做閱讀理解題，首先要準(zhǔn)確理解題意，然后根據(jù)題意和短文內(nèi)容選出正確的答案。（1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解能力，此類型題較簡單，學(xué)生準(zhǔn)確理解題意后，直接到文中找出答案。（2）考查猜詞能力。做這種題型時，學(xué)生要根據(jù)上下文意思準(zhǔn)確猜出詞義。3）考查推理判斷能力，此類題型較難，學(xué)生要準(zhǔn)確理解題意后，在文中找出相關(guān)的內(nèi)容做出合理的推斷。本文主要考查學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解能力。準(zhǔn)確理解題意后，到文中找出相關(guān)的敘述，做出正確的判斷。
