四、阅读理解

A

A strange accident put my eyesight in danger.A quick operation fixed things,but recuperation (恢复) was slow.Then I learned to see the world in another way.

The accident happened so fast that I wasn’t sure what hit me.Somehow,my 85-pound yellow dog Harry,had managed to kick me in my left eye with his leg while he slept.My eye hurt badly.

I knew immediately something was wrong.My left eye wouldn’t move together with my right one.After a couple of minutes,the movement of my left eye seemed to return to normal.I shook it off and began my day,slightly worried,but sure it was nothing. 

Late the following afternoon,I noticed a curtain of blackness in the lower right corner of my left eye as I was walking down the hall at work.I ran into my office and called my ophthalmologist (眼科医生).Trying to stay calm,I raced across town and made it to his office within 15 minutes.After a three-hour operation,I couldn’t lift my head for the first week.

While I recuperated,life went on.My boyfriend took care of me and our dogs,Homer and Harry.After a full day at work he fed us,got us everything we needed,and then went to the hospital,where his mother lay dying.She sent some of her flowers home with him to me.I never got the chance to see her again.

I returned to work after three months at home.Slowly my left eye has returned to normal.I appreciate a lot more since my injury:the ability to see the world;to have a safe home and roof over my head;to have both my parents alive and in good health;to laugh at my sweet,silly dogs;and to be fortunate enough to share my life with someone who loves and cares for me.

Heroes of Our Time

A good heart

Dikembe Mutombo grew up in Africa among great poverty and disease.He came to Georgetown University on a scholarship (奖学金) to study medicine—but Coach John Thompson got a look at Dikembe and had a different idea.Dikembe became a star in the NBA,and a citizen of the United States.But he never forgot the land of his birth,or the duty to share his fortune with others.He built a new hospital in his old hometown in the Congo.A friend has said of this good-hearted man:“Mutombo believes that God has given him this chance to do great things.”

Success and kindness

After her daughter was born,Julie Aigner-Clark searched for ways to share her love of music and art with her child.So she borrowed some equipment,and began filming children’s videos (录像) in her own house.The Baby Einstein Company was born,and in just five years her business grew to more than $20 million in sales.And she is using her success to help others—producing child safety videos with John Walsh of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.Julie says of her new program:“I believe it’s the most important thing that I have ever done.I believe that children have the right to live in a world that is safe.”

Bravery and courage

A few weeks ago,Wesley Autrey was waiting at a Harlem subway station with his two little girls when he saw a man fall into the path of a train.With seconds to act,Wesley jumped onto the tracks,pulled the man into the space between the rails (铁轨),and held him as the train passed right above their heads.He insisted he’s not a hero.He said:“We have got to show each other some love.”

10.What was Mutombo praised for?

A.Being a star in the NBA.

B.Being a student of medicine.

C.His work in the church.

D.His willingness to help the needy.

答案:D

解析:推理判断题。由第一段的标题“A good heart”以及第一段的“But he never forgot the land of his birth,or the duty to share his fortune with others.He built a new hospital in his old hometown in the Congo.”可推知,Dikembe Mutombo是一个乐于助人的人。

11.What did the Baby Einstein Company do at its beginning?

A.Produce safety equipment for children.

B.Make videos to help protect children.

C.Sell children’s music and artwork.

D.Look for missing and exploited children.

A.He helped a man get across the rails.

B.He stopped a man from destroying the rails.

答案:D

解析:推理判断题。根据短文最后一段第二句“With seconds to act,Wesley jumped onto the tracks,pulled the man into the space between the rails,and held him as the train passed right above their heads.”可推知,他之所以被人们赞为英雄,是因为他没有考虑自己的安危从铁轨上救了一个人的命。
