[1]Many people who have a disability don't let it prevent them from leading full and rich lives. Below is a list of such disabled people.
[2]Stephen Hawking is probably one of the world's best known high achievers with a disability. He is an internationally renowned mathematician who suffers from Motor Neurone Disease. At 35 he was Cambridge's first Gravitational Physics Professor and received the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics Award. He has written a best selling book which was later made into a film called A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to Black Holes.
[3]Franklin Delano Roosevelt became the 32nd President of the United States. He got Polio in 1921 which left him paralyzed from the waist down. He established a foundation to help others with it and directed the March of Dimes program which eventually funded an effective vaccine.
[4]David Blunkett was an MP, Education Secretary, Home Secretary and Secretary of State for Work and Pensions at various times. He has been blind since birth and has never let this fact hold him back in any aspect of his life.
[5]Tanni Grey Thompson OBE is probably the best known disabled athlete, representing Britain in distances from 100 m to 800 m. She has won 14 Paralympic medals including 9 gold medals and she has broken over 20 records. She has also won 5 London Marathons as a wheelchair athlete and has become a TV presenter.
[6]Francisco Goya (1746-1828) was a Spanish painter who suffered an illness which left him deaf at 46. He went on to create some of the best known Spanish art of the 19th Century. He provided inspiration for the work of later artists including Picasso and Monet.

学习目标 ——题后把脉规律,练后得法理解更透
掌握“同义替换”技巧,快速确定正确选项
同义替换是历年高考阅读理解题的命题人常用的设置障碍的技巧,需要注意的是,有时为了增加难度,命题者在保证含义不变的前提下故意将正确选项的句子结构加以改变。如上文第3题题干和正确选项的组合为:“David Blunkett's blindness didn't prevent him from succeeding in life”;文章原句为:“He has been blind since birth and has never let this fact hold him back in any aspect of his life.”可知,正确选项使用了“prevent ... from”替换了原文的“hold ... back”。

[1]Many people who have a disability don't let it prevent them from leading full and rich lives. Below is a list of such disabled people.
[2]Stephen Hawking is probably one of the world's best known high achievers with a disability. He is an internationally renowned mathematician who suffers from Motor Neurone Disease. At 35 he was Cambridge's first Gravitational Physics Professor and received the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics Award. He has written a best selling book which was later made into a film called A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to Black Holes.
[3]Franklin Delano Roosevelt became the 32nd President of the United States. He got Polio in 1921 which left him paralyzed from the waist down. He established a foundation to help others with it and directed the March of Dimes program which eventually funded an effective vaccine.
[4]David Blunkett was an MP, Education Secretary, Home Secretary and Secretary of State for Work and Pensions at various times. He has been blind since birth and has never let this fact hold him back in any aspect of his life.
[5]Tanni Grey Thompson OBE is probably the best known disabled athlete, representing Britain in distances from 100 m to 800 m. She has won 14 Paralympic medals including 9 gold medals and she has broken over 20 records. She has also won 5 London Marathons as a wheelchair athlete and has become a TV presenter.
[6]Francisco Goya (1746-1828) was a Spanish painter who suffered an illness which left him deaf at 46. He went on to create some of the best known Spanish art of the 19th Century. He provided inspiration for the work of later artists including Picasso and Monet.

掌握“同义替换”技巧,快速确定正确选项
同义替换是历年高考阅读理解题的命题人常用的设置障碍的技巧,需要注意的是,有时为了增加难度,命题者在保证含义不变的前提下故意将正确选项的句子结构加以改变。如上文第3题题干和正确选项的组合为:“David Blunkett's blindness didn't prevent him from succeeding in life”;文章原句为:“He has been blind since birth and has never let this fact hold him back in any aspect of his life.”可知,正确选项使用了“prevent ... from”替换了原文的“hold ... back”。
