4.Ammie Reddick from East Kilbride,Lanarkshire,was only 18 months old when she had the accident that had scarred(留下創(chuàng)傷) her for life.The curious child reached up to grab the wire of a hot kettle in the family kitchen and poured boiling water over her tiny infant frame.
Her mother Ruby turned round and,seeing Ammie horribly burnt,called an ambulance which rushed her daughter to a nearby hospital.Twenty percent of Ammie's body had been burned and all of her burns were third-degree.There,using tissue taken from unburned areas of Ammie's body,doctors performed complex skin transplants to close her wounds and control her injuries,an operation that took about six hours.Over the next 16 years,Ammie underwent 12 more operations to repair her body.
When she started school at Maxwelton Primary at age 4,other pupils made cruel comments or simply wouldn't play with her."I was the only burned child in the street,the class and the school,"she recalled,"some children refused to become friends because of that."
Today,aged 17,Ammie can only ever remember being a burned person with scars; pain is a permanent part of her body.She still has to have two further skin transplants.Yet she is a confident,outgoing teenager who offers inspiration and hope to other young burns victims.
She is a member of the Scottish Burned Children's Club,a charity set up last year.This month,Ammie will be joining the younger children at the Graffham Water Center in Cambridgeshire for the charity's first summer camp."I'll show them how to get rid of unkind stares from others,"she says.Ammie loves wearing fashionable sleeveless tops,and she plans to show the youngsters at the summer camp that they can too."I do not go to great lengths to hide my burns scars,"she says,"I gave up wondering how other people would react years ago."
56.How many operations has Ammie already had?B
A.Twelve            B.Thirteen           C.fourteen           D.Fifteen
57.What did other children do when Ammie first went to school?D
A.They were friendly to her.B.They showed sympathy to her.
C.They were afraid of her.D.They looked down upon her.
58.Ammie will teach the younger children at the Graffham Water Center toA.
A.face others'unkindness bravely             
B.hide their scars by proper dressing
C.live a normal life                           
D.recover quickly

60.What can be the best title of the passage?D
A.A Seriously Burned Girl Survives         
B.Ways to Get Rid of Unkind Stares
C.Permanent Scars And Pain For a Girl          
D.A seriously burned angel of Hope.

58.A.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.從最后一段"I'll show them how to get rid of unkind stares from others,"得知Ammie教他們怎么對別人那些不友好的注視嗤之以鼻,故選A.
59.C.推理判斷題.從文章可以看出Ammie是一個有勇氣的,自信的,樂觀的女孩,故sensitive敏感的,不是描述她的性格;故選C.
60.D.主旨大意題.縱觀全文,不難看出本文主要講述了一個被燒傷的女孩,身殘志堅的勵志故事,因此最佳標(biāo)題為一個嚴(yán)重?zé)齻南M焓,故選D.
