Question

Here is an interview with a painter. Read and choose the best.
Reporter:Mr Shum, you were one of Taiwan’s most outstanding youths last year. Why was that?
Mr Shum:Well, I can tell you that there are two reasons.First, I am a painter. Second, and more important reason is I am handicapped﹙殘疾的﹚。I have no arms and only one leg.
Reporter:Well, how do you paint then if you’ve got no arms? Do you use your foot?
Mr Shum:Hah! For some handicapped people, it’s true and they are able to use their feet.No,I use my mouth. I put my paintbrush or my crayons or pencils or whatever I am using in my mouth. I hold it firmly in my teeth and paint or draw like that. It was a little strange for me at first, but it quickly became very easy.
Reporter:I know you feel that you are first a painter and only secondly that you are a disablbed person, but can we talk first about your handicap?
Mr Shum:Well,in fact I think of myself firstly as a person, secondly as a painter and thirdly as someone with a physical handicap. Can I say that I am not happy with the word “handicapped”?
I am a popular painter because my paintings are good, not because they were painted by a handicapped person. “handicapped”means you can’t do anything. It is difficult for me to do some things like getting dressed.
Reporter: Were you born with your handicap?
Mr Shum:No. An accident happened to me when I was 15 years old.After that I became depressed﹙沮喪﹚and even tried to end my life, but my mother was always there for me.

解析試題分析：這是對(duì)畫家Mr Shum的一個(gè)采訪。做為一個(gè)沒有胳膊只有一條腿的殘疾人，Mr Shum認(rèn)為他首先是一個(gè)人，其次是一個(gè)畫家，最后才是一個(gè)肢體有殘疾的人。困難并不可怕，重要的是看你怎樣去面對(duì)。
【小題1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)I have no arms and only one leg.我沒有胳膊只有一條腿。可知他沒有胳膊，故選D。
【小題2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)I think of myself firstly as a person, secondly as a painter and thirdly as someone with a physical handicap.我認(rèn)為自己首先是一個(gè)人，其次是一個(gè)畫家，然后才是一個(gè)肢體殘缺的人。可知他認(rèn)為自己首先是人，故選A。
【小題3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)“handicapped”means you can’t do anything. “殘疾的”意思就是你不能做什么事。表明there are some things he can’t do有一些事情他不能做，故選B。
【小題4】詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)I hold it firmly in my teeth and paint or draw like that. 我用牙齒緊緊地咬住筆來畫。可知只有咬緊筆才能畫成，故選A。
【小題5】主旨大意題。綜合全文，根據(jù)Mr Shum的講述，我們能學(xué)到：困難不可怕，重要的是看你怎樣去面對(duì)。故選D。
