Question

【題目】 Everyone faces challenges in their life, but some are more important than others. Daniel Kish had serious problems with his eyes when he was born. And doctors took away both of his eyes before he was fourteen months old.

Soon after, however, he started to do an amazing thing. He started to make clicking(咔塔) sounds with his tongue舌頭) to help him move around. Much like a bat(蝙幅), he now moves about using sonar(聲吶). He is so good at it that he can ride a bicycle in traffic. He and his group, World Access for the Blind, teach others how to use sonar. In this interview with National Geographic, Kish explains how the process works.

How does sonar work?

“When I make a clicking sound, it makes sound waves. These waves reflect(反射) off surfaces all around and return to my ears. My brain then processes the sounds into images(圖像). It’s like having a conversation with the environment

When you click, what do you see in your mind?

"Each click is like a camera flash. I make a 3D image of the things around me for hundreds of feet in every direction

What is it like riding a bike using sonar?

“It's exciting and enjoyable but requires a lot of focus. I click up to two times per second,, much more than I usually do.”

Is it dangerous to move around the world in this way?

"Much of the world lives in fear of things that we mostly imagine. I have a habit of climbing anything and everything, but I never broke a bone (骨頭) as a kid.”

How challenging is it to teach people to use sonar?

“Many students are surprised how quickly results come. Seeing isn't in the eyes, it' s in the mind.”

【4】C

【解析】

文章介紹了Daniel Kish因?yàn)閲?yán)重的眼睛疾病，醫(yī)生摘除了他的眼球，不久后，他就用舌頭發(fā)出咔塔聲來幫助他走路，就像蝙蝠一樣，用聲吶來走動(dòng)，他解釋了這個(gè)過程是怎么工作的，舌頭發(fā)出的聲音反射回到耳朵，然后大腦加工成圖像，就像和環(huán)境對(duì)話，不是用眼睛看，而是用大腦看。

【1】段落大意題。根據(jù)He started to make clicking(咔塔) sounds with his tongue舌頭) to help him move around. Much like a bat(蝙幅), he now moves about using sonar(聲吶). 不久后，他就用舌頭發(fā)出咔塔聲來幫助他走路，就像蝙蝠一樣，用聲吶來走動(dòng)，可知這一段主要講訴Kish開始用聲吶走動(dòng)；故選C。

【2】順序排列題。根據(jù)I make a clicking sound, it makes sound waves. hese waves reflect(反射) off surfaces all around and return to my ears. My brain then processes the sounds into images(圖像).可知聲吶工作的順序是發(fā)出咔嗒聲，聲音從表面反射回來，到達(dá)人的耳朵，大腦把聲音制成圖像；故選D。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Much of the world lives in fear of things that we mostly imagine I have a habit of climbing anything and everything, but I never broke a bone (骨頭) as a kid.他沒有生活在想象的恐懼中，也沒傷到骨頭，根據(jù)And doctors took away both of his eyes before he was fourteen months old.可知是14個(gè)月，不是14歲；根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容，可知他總是勇敢地挑戰(zhàn)自己；故選A。

【4】主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章介紹了Daniel Kish因?yàn)閲?yán)重的眼睛疾病，醫(yī)生摘除了他的眼球，不久后，他就用舌頭發(fā)出咔塔聲來幫助他走路，就像蝙蝠一樣，用聲吶來走動(dòng)，他解釋了這個(gè)過程是怎么工作的，舌頭發(fā)出的聲音反射回到耳朵，然后大腦大腦加工成圖像，就像和環(huán)境對(duì)話，不是用眼睛看，而是用大腦看。可知這段的最好題目是“用大腦看”；故選C。

短文閱讀，做題時(shí)要結(jié)合文章的特點(diǎn)，題目涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測(cè)和推理判斷，做題時(shí)要在了解文章大意的基礎(chǔ)上，結(jié)合題目針對(duì)不同的題型采用不同的解答方式，比如細(xì)節(jié)理解題，我們要抓住里面的最有效的信息選擇出正確的答案，總之理解透文章是做好一篇閱讀理解的關(guān)鍵。例如：小題1 段落大意題。根據(jù)He started to make clicking(咔塔) sounds with his tongue舌頭) to help him move around. Much like a bat(蝙幅), he now moves about using sonar(聲吶). 不久后，他就用舌頭發(fā)出咔塔聲來幫助他走路，就像蝙蝠一樣，用聲吶來走動(dòng)，可知這一段主要講訴Kish開始用聲吶走動(dòng)；故選C。
