限时规范练(三十一)　UNIT 1　Face values (限时20分钟) Ⅰ.阅读理解 At thirteen，I was diagnosed(诊断) with a kind of attention disorder.It made school difficult for me.When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks，I could not. In my first literature class，Mrs Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it，all within 45 minutes.I raised my hand right away and said，“Mrs Smith，you see，the doctor said I have attention problems.I might not be able to do it.” She glanced down at me through her glasses，“You are not different from your classmates，young man.”I tried，but I didn't finish the reading when the bell rang.I had to take it home. In the quietness of my bedroom，the story suddenly all became clear to me.It was about a blind person，Louis Braille.He lived in a time when the blind couldn't get much education.But Louis didn't give up.Instead，he invented a reading system of raised dots(点)，which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind. Wasn't I the “blind” in my class，being made to learn like the “sighted” students？My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance.I completed the task within 40 minutes.Indeed，I was not different from others; I just needed a quieter place.If Louis could find his way out of his problem，why should I ever give up? I didn't expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs Smith，so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day—with an“A” on it.At the bottom of the paper were these words，“See what you can do when you keep trying.” 1.What problem did the author meet when he was in class? A.He didn't like the teacher. B.He was not fond of literature. C.The classroom was too noisy. D.He couldn't focus his attention in class. 2.What's Mrs Smith's attitude to the author in the classroom? A.She encouraged him. B.She looked down on him. C.She sympathized(同情) him. D.She was angry with him. 3.What can we learn about Louis Braille from the passage? A.He managed to cure his blindness. B.He got a good education at school. C.He made an invention which helped the blind. D.He couldn't see and read for the whole life. 4.What can we learn from the passage? A.How to be a great teacher. B.Keep trying，and you can do it. C.What should you do as a blind. D.Ways to overcome attention disorder. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者被诊断患有注意力障碍，不能集中精力于所做的事情。当他想放弃时，受Louis Braille的故事和Smith老师的激励，终于克服困难，很好地完成作业并得到老师的认可。 1.D　[解析]细节理解题。根据第一段可知，作者被诊断患有注意力障碍，他在课堂上无法集中注意力，故选D。 2.A　[解析]推理判断题。根据第三段Smith老师认为作者和其他人没什么不同可知，Smith老师鼓励作者，故选A。 3.C　[解析]细节理解题。根据第四段的最后一句“Instead，he invented a reading system of raised dots，which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.”可知，Louis Braille发明了盲文来帮助盲人。故选C。 4.B　[解析]推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文讲述了作者受Louis Braille的故事的激励克服了障碍，完成作业并得到老师的认可的故事。根据倒数第二段中的“If Louis could find his way out of his problem，why should I ever give up？”和最后一段中的“At the bottom of the paper were these words，‘See what you can do when you keep trying.’”可知，本文告诉我们，一直坚持努力，你会成功的。故选B。 Ⅱ.完形填空 (2024·贵州贵阳一中高三适应性月考)Ever since I was a child I have struggled with self­doubt.It's a feeling that you aren't good enough, that you can't 1 anything.Yet try as I might to 2 these thoughts, I could hardly escape them.
