16.Nicolai Calabria has already become one of the best 106-pound wrestlers.He has successfully climbed to the top of the highest mountain in Africa,and most importantly,he's changed the attitude of any normal person who watches him compete.
The 17-year-old teenager has one leg.He was born that way,but his goal is to show it's not the one thing that defines him.He would also be the first one to tell you that he just wants to prove to others and himself that he's just like other normal ones.
When Calabria was young,his parents tried different prostheses(假肢)to find out which was most comfortable for their son as he tried to keep up with a family,who has a preference for sports.
At first,the Calabrias had their middle child in a prosthesis that looked and functioned like a"real"leg,but soon they decided to choose a different path when they found it wasn't beneficial to his movement.Then the family moved him to arm crutches(手杖)and from there a new burst of energy was found.
Getting others to believe that he could take off on the soccer field took a little bit longer.When the Calabrias moved to Concord,they had a hard time convincing the town soccer program to allow a child like him to compete with able-bodied kids.After months and months of debates and meetings,the family received the answer they were looking for.Since then,witnessing a young man on crutches who competes against those with two legs has become a fixed event in the Concord community.
"At that time I had nothing but discouragement working with the soccer community,however,now I have nothing but admiration for the fact that he's been allowed to play,and people see that he adds value to game,"his father said."I just think it's a great result."

21.This passage shows us a boy with one legA.
A.can do what a normal teenager can
B.is realizing as many dreams as he can
C.can make a sport event more valuable
D.can add value to society
22.We can learn from Paragraph 5 thatB
A. Calabria proved to be the most excellent player of the team
B.it was not easy for Calabria to be accepted to the town soccer team
C.Calabria's parents didn't allow him to play soccer at first
D.there are some other disabled children in the soccer team
23.In Paragraph 5,the underlined part probably meansA
A.a(chǎn) must-see                       
B.a(chǎn) planned programme
C.a(chǎn)n extra game                    
D.a(chǎn) special occasion
24.It is implied in the last paragraph that Nicolai's fatherC.
A.has been discouraged since Nicolai played soccer
B.thinks that Nicolai is playing a key role in the team
C.is very delighted that Nicolai can play soccer in the team
D.hasn't expected that Nicolai can be allowed to play soccer.

分析 本文屬于說明文閱讀,作者通過這篇文章主要向我們講述了一個(gè)堅(jiān)強(qiáng)男孩的故事.Nicolai Calabria天生只有一條腿,但這沒有給他帶來不好的影響,相反,憑借堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的毅力,他攀上了非洲最高的山脈,也改變了人們對(duì)他的看法和態(tài)度.

解答 21.A.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第二段"he just wants to prove to others and himself that he's just like other normal ones"可知,雖然只有一條腿,但是Calabria通過自己的努力向周圍的人們證明了他是和其他青少年一樣的,別人能做到的他也能夠做到,故選A.
22.B.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第五段"Getting others to believe that he could take off on the soccer field took a little bit longer…they had a hard time persuading the town soccer team to allow a child like him to compete with able-bodied kids"可知,讓別人相信Calabria能夠踢好足球并非易事,Calabria一家人花費(fèi)了好長時(shí)間才說服了鎮(zhèn)上的足球隊(duì)接納Calabria,故選B.
23.A.猜測(cè)詞義題.根據(jù)文章第五段"Since then,witnessing a young man on crutches who competes against those with two legs has become a fixed event in the Concord community."可知,從那以后,一個(gè)拄著拐杖的年輕人與身體完好的對(duì)手踢球成了一個(gè)必看的賽事,故選A.
24.C.推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章第五段"At that time I had nothing but discouragement working with the soccer community"可知,Calabria的父親當(dāng)時(shí)對(duì)跟足球隊(duì)協(xié)商不抱任何希望,但現(xiàn)在,他為兒子能夠踢球并為球隊(duì)帶來價(jià)值而感到高興,nothing but只有,僅僅,故選C.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 考察學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力,做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時(shí)一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進(jìn)行比較,再做出正確的選擇.在做推理判斷題不要以個(gè)人的主觀想象代替文章的事實(shí),要根據(jù)文章事實(shí)進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.
