题文

“The only thing holding you back is yourself. Never say never”, said a rising 17-year-old singer, Justin Bieber, who was just an ordinary boy in Canada a few years ago. After the accident of falling from the 18th floor and lying in the snow for three hours, my hands were frozen and my spinal cord (脊髓)was seriously injured. All the doctors and professors in the famous hospitals in Beijing told me that there was little chance for my hands and my body to recover (康复). After half a year of medical treatments and recovering exercises, I could not make any more progress for over a year. What was worse , I suffered a lot from depression (绝望). On top of this, I suffered from insomnia, making every minute of the night seem to last forever. Hopelessly, mom and I came back to my hometown, which is small town in Guangdong. At that time, I thought that I would never be able to walk again. I would never love and be loved. I would never be able to earn even a penny. I would never be able to repay the kindness I got from my parents and many nice people. Life was meaningless. Now two years has passed. My hands are 80% recovered. I can even type faster than a healthy person! Up to now, I have worked for a law firm as an interpreter for half a year already. Although I don’t earn as much as before, I am able to pay for the food and clothes I need. What’s more, I even have extra money to buy thanksgiving presents for my parents and my boyfriend. Through my blogs (博客) , many people get to know me and like me. I can bring happiness to them. I can help those who are still suffering from depression and the pain of illnesses by chatting with them….You see, I am living a meaningful life and I am happier than ever I could have dreamed. So, my friends, never say never. As long as you are alive, there is always hope and possibilities. It is never too late to take action to realize your dreams.     (382 words) 小题1:What’s the writer’s present job? A．A singer. B．A typist . C．A professor .

题型：阅读理解  难度：中档

答案

小题1:D 小题2:A 小题3:C 小题4:B

短文属于记叙文。讲述了“我”因受伤身体残疾，曾几度悲观绝望痛苦，现在的“我”不仅能自食其力，还用各种方式帮助别人，生活得充实、快乐、有意义。 小题1:细节理解题。从第五段第四句“I have worked for a law firm as an interpreter”可知。 小题2:词义猜测题。根据本句后面的内容“making every minute of the night seem to last forever”可以推测出。 小题3:推理判断题。从第五段“I can help those who…”“I am living a meaningful life…”可知作者现在的生活是乐观向上的，用painful描述不全情理。 小题4:综合理解题。根据第五段“Through my blogs…”里的意思，排除A项；从第二段第一句“…lying in the snow for three hours”里得知受伤后没能立刻就医，因此排除C项；从第五段第五句“I don’t earn as much as before”知道D项不属实；从第五段第六句“I even have extra money to buy… for my parents and my boyfriend”可知作者目前有男朋友。综合比较，只有B选项与短文内容一致。
