Something strange was unbelievable. Take Robert for exam Wap版

试题详情及答案解析

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.

试题分析：这篇文章讲述了一件不可思议的故事，罗伯特先生在一场车祸中失去了视觉和听觉，曾几度想要轻生，但是还是在妻子和家人的鼓励中生活了下来，难以置信的是，在一场暴风雨到来之时，罗伯特无意中被闪电击中，然后恢复了视觉和听觉，这是医学上的一个奇迹。
【小题1】细节分析题。从第三段中“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. ”可以看出当罗伯特先生睁开眼睛的时候，首先看到的是躺在墙旁边的犁子，故选C。
【小题2】正误判断题。从第最后一段中的“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”可以看出医生是承认罗伯特是真的失明失聪了的，与C项医生认为罗伯特先生从未真正的失明失聪不符，故选C。
【小题3】细节分析题。从第三段中的“ He stood under a large tree in order not to get himself wet. ”可以暴风雨来临的时候罗伯特是在一棵大树下躲雨的。故选A。
【小题4】.推断分析题。从最后一段中的“ 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.”可以看出失明失聪对罗伯特的打击很大，所以需要另外一种打击的方式使他恢复视力和听力。故选D。
