Question

【題目】

Everyone faces challenges in their life, but some are more difficult than others. Daniel Kish had serious problems with his eyes when he was born. And doctors took away both of his eyes before he was fourteen months old.

Soon later, however, he started to do an amazing thing. He started to make clicking （咔噠）sounds with his tongue （舌頭） to help him move around. Much like a bat （蝙蝠）, he now moves about using sonar （聲吶）. 【1】 He and his group, World Access for the Blind, teach others how to use sonar. In this interview with National Geographic, Kish explains how sonar works.

How does sonar work?

“When I make a clicking sound, it makes sound waves. These waves reflect （反射） off surfaces all around and return to my ears. My brain then processes the sounds into images （圖像）.【2】”

When you click, what do you see in your mind?

"Each click is like a camera flash. I make a 3D image of the things around me for hundreds of feet in every direction.

What is it like riding a bike using sonar?

“【3】 I click up to two times per second, much more than I usually do."

Is it dangerous to move around the world in this way?

“Much of the world lives in fear of things that we mostly imagine. I have a habit of climbing everything, but I never broke a bone（骨頭）as a kid."

How challenging is it to teach people to use sonar?

“Many students are surprised how quickly results come. 【4】 It’s in the mind."

A.It’s exciting and enjoyable but requires a lot of focus.

B.He is so good at it that he can ride a bicycle in traffic.

C.Seeing isn’t in the eyes.

D.It’s like having a conversation with the environment.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】B

【2】D

【3】A

【4】C

【解析】

文章大意：文章介紹了Daniel Kish因為嚴重的眼睛疾病，醫(yī)生摘除了他的眼球，不久后，他就用舌頭發(fā)出咔塔聲來幫助他走路，就像蝙蝠一樣，用聲吶來走動，他解釋了這個過程是怎么工作的，舌頭發(fā)出的聲音反射回到耳朵，然后大腦加工成圖像，就像和環(huán)境對話，不是用眼睛看，而是用大腦看。

【1】空前講Kish如何使用聲吶來四處走動，下文采訪中也問到了使用聲吶騎自行車是什么感覺，由此可推出此處要說他使用聲吶來騎自行車，結合選項可知用“He is so good at it that he can ride a bicycle in traffic.”符合題意。故選B。

【2】這一段主要講聲吶是如何工作的，空前講發(fā)出的聲波返回耳朵，將周邊的環(huán)境在大腦中加工成像，由此可知這就像在和環(huán)境對話，結合選項可知用“It’s like having a conversation with the environment.”符合題意。故選D。

【3】根據(jù)空后“I click up to two times per second, much more than I usually do.”可知用聲吶騎自行車需要比平時發(fā)出更多咔噠聲，由此可推出需要更多的注意力，結合選項可知用“It’s exciting and enjoyable but requires a lot of focus.”符合題意。故選A。

【4】根據(jù)空后“It’s in the mind.”講是用大腦看，結合選項可知此處用“Seeing isn’t in the eyes.”表示“不是用眼睛看”。故選C。
