【押題1】Would you believe that the first outstanding
deaf teacher in America was a Frenchman? His name was Laurent Clerc. He became
a friend of Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet and together they founded America's
first school for the deaf.
Laurent Clerc was born in a small
village near Lyons, France, on December 26, 1785. When
he was one year old, he fell into a fire, losing both his hearing and his sense
of smell.
At 12, Laurent entered the Royal
Institution for the Deaf in Paris
where he excelled in his studies. After he graduated, the school asked him to
stay on as an assistant teacher.
Meanwhile, in America, Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet
was studying to be a minister. He was very concerned about the lack of
educational opportunities for the deaf. Therefore, in 1815, Gallaudet sailed to
London, England to seek ideas on how to
teach deaf people. While he was there, he met a French educator of the deaf who
invited him to go to Paris
to spend three months learning at the Royal Institution for the Deaf, the school
where Laurent Clerc was teaching. Gallaudet accepted the offer. The two worked
and studied well together. When the time came for Gallaudet to return, he asked
Clerc to come with him. Clerc accepted on one condition: that he would stay in America
only a short time.
The two men set sail on June 18,
1816. The voyage across the Atlantic Ocean
took 52 days; however, Clerc and Gallaudet put the time to good use. Clerc
studied English, and Gallaudet studied sign language. They discussed the school
for the deaf which they planned to open. On the long trip, they had many
conversations about education and deafness. The year after they arrived, they
founded a school for the deaf in Harford,
Connecticut.
At the school, Clerc led a busy
life. He taught signs to Principal Gallaudet; he taught the pupils; and he
taught hearing men who came to the school to study deaf education.
In 1819, Clerc married Eliza
Crocker Boardman, one of his pupils. They had six children. He retired from
teaching in 1858. Although he had intended to return to France, he never did. He died on
July 18, 1869 in the United
States.

to Clerc for all that he taught him
C. Clerc preferred teaching deaf

【試題解析】1. C
第四段“he was concerned about the lack of
opportunities for deaf people in America和he
went to London to seek ideas on how to teach deaf people.”與C項(xiàng)表達(dá)雖然不同,但意思基本一致。
2. A 推理判斷題�?梢杂门懦ń獯鸫祟},B項(xiàng)不可能,Clerc懂法語(yǔ)、手語(yǔ)、還在旅途中學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ);C項(xiàng)文中既沒(méi)有說(shuō)明為什么與Eliza結(jié)婚,更談不上當(dāng)時(shí)是否有“綠卡”。D項(xiàng)沒(méi)有足夠的信息推斷掙錢(qián)多少。根據(jù)文中“an excellent teacher, learned many different
language,succeeded in school”等信息可以推斷he was an intelligent man。
3. B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第6段中“they studied English and Sign
Language, and discussed the school for the deaf which they planned to open.”可以確定答案是B。
4. C 邏輯順序題。根據(jù)第3段Clerc went to school in Paris.、第五段became Gallaudets Sign Language teacher、第六段in 1816, after the two men studied together
in Paris 和最后一段in 1819, Clerc got married.可確定其先后順序C項(xiàng)正確。
5. D 主旨大意題。全文圍繞Clerc和他對(duì)美國(guó)聾兒教育的影響,所以D項(xiàng)正確,而A項(xiàng)面太窄,B項(xiàng)偏離主題,本文針對(duì)的不是Thomas Gallaudet,C項(xiàng)文中根本沒(méi)提到偏愛(ài)做一名教師。
【押題2】Years ago a John
Hopkin's professor gave a group of graduate students this task: Go to the
slums(貧民窟). Take 200 boys, between the
ages of 12 and 16, and research into their background and environment. Then
predict their chances for the future.
The students, after
consulting social statistics, talking to the boys, and compiling(匯編) much data, concluded that 90 percent of the boys
would spend some time in prison.
Twenty-five years
later another group of graduate students was given the job of testing the
prediction. They went back to the same area. Some of the boys―by then men―were still there, a
few had died, some had moved away, but they got in touch with 180 of the
original 200. They found that only four of the group had ever been sent to
prison.
Why was it that these
men, who had lived in a breeding(滋生) place of crime, had such
a surprisingly good record? The researchers were continually told: "Well,
there was a teacher..."
They pressed further,
and found that in 75 percent of the cases it was the same woman. The
researchers went to this teacher, now living in a home for retired teachers.
How had she exerted(發(fā)揮) this remarkable
influence over that group of children? Could she give them any reason why these
boys should have remembered her?
"No," she
said, "no I really couldn't." And then, thinking back over the years,
she said amusingly, more to herself than to her questioners: "I loved
those boys."
1. What were a group of graduate students instructed to do?
A. To research into
the living conditions of the poor citizens.
B. To foretell what
the future might have in store for poor kids
C. To study 200 boys
between 12 to 16 and predict their future.
D. To survey the
background and environment of 200 teenagers.
2. Seeing only four boys with bad records, the researchers probably felt
______.
A. relieved
B. surprised
C. disappointed
D. frustrated
3. Most of the 200 surveyed boys grew into good citizens because
_________.
3. D 推理判斷。根據(jù)文章的最后兩段,200名生活在貧民窟的男孩健康成長(zhǎng)的原因是一位女教師對(duì)他們的關(guān)愛(ài)。
4. A 主旨大意。本文給我們的啟示是:愛(ài)可以創(chuàng)造奇跡。一位女教師的愛(ài)感化了她的學(xué)生,影響那些在貧民窟的男孩有積極的人生態(tài)度。
【押題3】Once I spoke at a high school. After the speech,
I was asked to see a special student. An illness had kept the boy home, but he
had expressed an interest in meeting me, and it would mean a great deal to him.
I agreed.
He was Matthew. When he was born, the doctor
told his parents that he would not live to see five, then they were told he
would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I
was a gold-medal weight lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles(障礙) and going for my dreams.
I spent over an hour talking
to Matthew. Never once did he complain. He spoke about winning and succeeding
and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He just
talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weight
with me.
When we finished
talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I won and
put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about
success and overcoming obstacles(障礙)
than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it
back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I
get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”
Last summer I got
the news that Matthew had passed away and a letter Matthew had written me a few
days before:
Dear Rick,
My mom said I should send you a thank-you letter for the
picture you sent me. The doctors tell me that I don’t have long to live any
more. But I still smile as much as I can.
I told you some
day I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal. But I know now I’ll never
make it. But I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to
Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to
you.
Thank you for loving me.
Your friend,
Matthew
