Question

Something strange was unbelievable. Take Robert for example. After the terrible car accident, his whole world had been completely dark and quiet for almost ten years. The loss of sight and hearing made him try many times to put end to his life.

His family especially his wife did their best to tend and comfort him. By and by he finally regained the courage to live on.

On a hot summer afternoon he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started suddenly. He stood under a large tree in order not to get himself wet. Unfortunately he was struck down to the ground by a lightning. The witnesses thought him dead but he woke up some 20 minutes later lying face down in muddy water below the tree. He felt that he was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes ,he didn’t dare to believe that he saw a plough（ 犁子 ）lying near the wall. When Mrs Edwards came running up to him, she shouted their neighbours for help. And he saw her and heard her voice for the first time in nearly ten years.

The news of Robert’s regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread in his area. And many doctors came to prove the truth of the news. Most of them said that he gained sight and hearing again obviously from the knock of lightning; none of them could give convincing reasons, however. The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since Edwards lost his sight and hearing as a result of sudden shock in a terrible accident, perhaps the only way for them to regain was by another sudden shock.

1.What did Edwards see first after being struck down by a lightning?

A. His wife B. The large tree

C. A plough D. The lightning itself

2.Which of the following is NOT true?

A. Edwards had been deaf and blind for nearly ten years

B. Edwards lost all his senses for about 20 minutes after the lightning had struck him down

C. Doctor held the belief that Edwards was never really blind and deaf.

D. Edwards woke up with face in mud.

3.What was Edwards doing when he was struck by the lightning?

A. Hiding from the rain under a tree.

B. Driving a car.

C. Taking a walk

D. lying on the ground

4.How did Edwards get his sight and hearing once more according to the doctor?

A. He regained them from head injury when he fell from a tree.

B. His wife’s first visit after almost ten years made him so happy that he regained them.

C. The lightning took the feeling from his legs and gave the senses of sight and hearing to his head.

D. The blow that caused him blind and deaf was very severe, so it took another severe blow to regain them.

【解析】

試題分析：這篇文章講述了一件不可思議的故事，羅伯特先生在一場車禍中失去了視覺和聽覺，曾幾度想要輕生，但是還是在妻子和家人的鼓勵(lì)中生活了下來，難以置信的是，在一場暴風(fēng)雨到來之時(shí)，羅伯特?zé)o意中被閃電擊中，然后恢復(fù)了視覺和聽覺，這是醫(yī)學(xué)上的一個(gè)奇跡。

1.】細(xì)節(jié)分析題。從第三段中“He felt that he was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes ,he didn’t dare to believe that he saw a plough（ 犁子 ）lying near the wall. ”可以看出當(dāng)羅伯特先生睜開眼睛的時(shí)候，首先看到的是躺在墻旁邊的犁子，故選C。

2.】正誤判斷題。從第最后一段中的“The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since Edwards lost his sight and hearing as a result of sudden shock in a terrible accident”可以看出醫(yī)生是承認(rèn)羅伯特是真的失明失聰了的，與C項(xiàng)醫(yī)生認(rèn)為羅伯特先生從未真正的失明失聰不符，故選C。

3.】細(xì)節(jié)分析題。從第三段中的“ He stood under a large tree in order not to get himself wet. ”可以暴風(fēng)雨來臨的時(shí)候羅伯特是在一棵大樹下躲雨的。故選A。

4. since Edwards lost his sight and hearing as a result of sudden shock in a terrible accident, perhaps the only way for them to regain was by another sudden shock.”可以看出失明失聰對羅伯特的打擊很大，所以需要另外一種打擊的方式使他恢復(fù)視力和聽力。故選D。
