Bill can see well. But he cannot recognize(认出) the faces he sees—not even his own mother. He tells his experience. “Once, at midday, I met my mother while walking down the street. I did not recognize her. We walked towards each other. We passed within a meter of each other. The sidewalk was not busy. The only way I know this happened is I was told about it that night. She was not happy about this incident. And she has never forgiven(原谅) me for it!”
Bill has face blindness(盲). For most people, this situation can be hard to understand. But face blindness may be more common than you think.
So, how does a person get face blindness Well, there are two ways. Some people with face blindness are born with the ability to recognize. But then, their brains are badly hurt. Over thirty years ago, Lincoln Holmes was in a car accident.
The accident damaged(损害) his brain. He can still do everything just like before—walk, talk, and work. But since the accident, Lincoln can no longer recognize faces. He cannot even recognize people he knew after the accident happened.
In the past, doctors thought that brain damage was the only way to get face blindness. However, scientists now believe that the most common way people get face blindness is from their parents—they inherit it! Recent studies suggest that face blindness stays in families.
But there are not any treatments(治疗) for face blindness at present.
(　　)16.How does the writer start the passage
A.By explaining the meaning. B.By giving an example.
C.By showing a study. D.By giving advice.
(　　)17.The underlined words “this situation” in the second paragraph refer to “　　　　”.
A.Bill walked past his mother B.Bill has face blindness
C.Bill didn't see his mother D.Bill didn't recognize his mother
(　　)18.Lincoln Holmes got face blindness because of　　　　.
A.brain damage B.a bad illness
C.a sad experience D.his family's illness
(　　)19.What does the underlined word “inherit” in the fourth paragraph mean in Chinese
A.模仿 B.遗传 C.脱离 D.恢复
(　　)20.What does the passage mainly tell us
A.How to protect our brains. B.What to do if we get face blindness.
C.Why people get face blindness. D.How to keep away from face blindness.
六、五选五
I think April Fool’s Day is a very unusual holiday. On April Fool’s Day, you have to watch out for practical jokes(恶作剧). 21.　　　　. Even some main newspapers will put fake(假的) articles into their papers to fool people. I heard a story that happened on April Fool’s Day—a London newspaper printed an article about how aliens landed in England. 22.　　　　. And the local police were not very pleased with the newspaper.
　　23.　　　　. But you have to be careful not to go too far. On April Fool’s Day, I called my mother from the university I attended. I told her that I was failing all of my classes. 24.　　　　.

After I told her it was only an April Fool’s Day’s joke, she got so angry with me that she hung up the phone. I had to call her back and apologize before she would talk to me again.
