But he has overcome great difficulties to achieve his dream of becoming a professional dancer, and is now able to hear music through an artificial cochlea (人工耳蜗). When he was 2, his parents took him to some training courses, and he learned to understand people by reading lips (嘴唇). During the slow and hard process, not only his parents but also some teachers from the training center offered great help to him. Thanks to their lasting efforts and help, Zhan had the chance to achieve as much as someone who can hear. Zhan had an artificial cochlea implanted (移植) when he was 4 years old. Then he was able to better understand people with its help. In the summer of 2008, Zhan watched a dance show of Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva (千手观音) by the China Disabled People’s Performing Art Troupe (剧团) at the closing ceremony of the Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games (残奥会) on TV. Deeply moved by their excellent skill and energy, he began to watch videos of performances and competitions, learned to copy the movements and dreamed of becoming a dancer like them. After graduating from primary school in 2015, Zhan passed the exam for the troupe and began to learn dance with the other members. To help him keep up, his teacher repeatedly played the drum and told him where the beats and rhythm (节奏) points were. Then, the teacher also guided him by using sign language. What’s more, as his artificial cochlea could easily fall out, he had to wear a headband to help keep it in. Through lasting efforts and hard work, Zhan came to be perfect at dancing and entered Changchun University to study dance in 2021. In recent years, Zhan has built up lots of experience performing at events such as the opening and closing ceremonies of the Beijing 2022 Winter Paralympic Games and the 2023 Spring Festival Gala (春晚). After he graduates, Zhan wants to return to the troupe and become a national-level dancer. He hopes to help other children like him to learn how to dance and feel its joy. 14. How did Zhan understand other people before he was four? A. By reading other people’s lips. B. By learning at a training center. C. By using an artificial cochlea. D. By getting help from his parents. 15. What can we infer (推断) from Paragraph Four? A. What the feelings of the dancer were. B. Why the teacher taught Zhan to dance. C. It was difficult for Zhan to lean to dance. D. More people will become interested in dancing. 16. Which words can be used to describe Zhan according to the passage? A. Strict and honest. B. Encouraging and hard-working. C. Clever and careful. D. Humorous and warm-hearted. 17. What is the best title of the passage? A. A Helping Hand to a Deaf Boy. B. A Brave Boy with a Hearing Problem. C. A Dance Class for Disabled People. D. A Deaf Dancer’s Road to Success. 【答案】14. A 15. C 16. B 17. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了吉林长春大学特殊教育学院21岁的聋哑学生詹俊毅克服重重困难，通过人工耳蜗和读唇语等方式实现舞蹈梦想的故事。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据“he learned to understand people by reading lips”和第二段“Zhan had an artificial cochlea implanted when he was 4 years old”可知，詹俊毅在4岁植入人工耳蜗前是通过读唇语理解他人。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“To help him keep up, his teacher repeatedly played the drum...he had to wear a headband to help keep it in”可推断，詹俊毅学习舞蹈的过程非常艰难，需要老师特殊指导和额外设备辅助。故选C。 【16题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文描述，尤其是“overcome great difficulties”“lasting efforts and hard work”等语句，可知詹俊毅的形象是“鼓舞人心且勤奋的”（encouraging and hard-working）。故选B。 【17题详解】 最佳标题题。全文围绕詹俊毅作为聋哑人通过努力成为专业舞者的历程展开，最贴切的标题是“一位聋人舞者的成功之路”（A Deaf Dancer’s Road to Success）。故选D。 C 阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。有一项为多余选项。 Life cycle of a butterfly Have you ever seen a baby butterfly?

I waited in my room for Grandma to notice it.  “Mike!” Mum shouted. I ran to the living room. “Why can't you put your things where they belong? Get the football out of here!” “But it's for Grandma! She said she needed a football for the New Year's Eve dinner.” I said. “A football for the dinner?” Mum laughed. “No, Grandma needs a fruit bowl, not a football.” “Fruit bowl sounds like football! I have done a silly thing!” I went back to my room, embarrassed and disappointed. Before dinner, Mum came in and asked me to meet my uncles and aunts. When I walked into the living room, Grandma was showing them a pretty fruit bowl with the old football in its centre, I was surprised. “Look!” Grandma said. “Today Mike brought me a nice present, this football.

B The 21-year-old student from the college of Special Education of Changchun University, Jilin Province, Zhan Junyi has been deaf since birth. But he has overcome great difficulties to achieve his dream of becoming a professional dancer, and is now able to hear music through an artificial cochlea (人工耳蜗). When he was 2, his parents took him to some training courses, and he learned to understand people by reading lips (嘴唇). During the slow and hard process, not only his parents but also some teachers from the training center offered great help to him. Thanks to their lasting efforts and help, Zhan had the chance to achieve as much as someone who can hear. Zhan had an artificial cochlea implanted (移植) when he was 4 years old. Then he was able to better understand people with its help. In the summer of 2008, Zhan watched a dance show of Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva (千手观音) by the China Disabled People’s Performing Art Troupe (剧团) at the closing ceremony of the Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games (残奥会) on TV.

To help him keep up, his teacher repeatedly played the drum and told him where the beats and rhythm (节奏) points were. Then, the teacher also guided him by using sign language. What’s more, as his artificial cochlea could easily fall out, he had to wear a headband to help keep it in. Through lasting efforts and hard work, Zhan came to be perfect at dancing and entered Changchun University to study dance in 2021. In recent years, Zhan has built up lots of experience performing at events such as the opening and closing ceremonies of the Beijing 2022 Winter Paralympic Games and the 2023 Spring Festival Gala (春晚). After he graduates, Zhan wants to return to the troupe and become a national-level dancer. He hopes to help other children like him to learn how to dance and feel its joy. 14.
