For
Cheng
Dongdong,
his
classroom
is
always
on
the
first
floor,
and
his
seat
is
always
in
the
first
row.
His
classmates
keep
an
eye
on
him
and
carry
him
to
his
wheelchair
whenever
and
wherever
he
goes
on
school
days.
There
are
always
warm
hands
behind
his
wheelchair.
From
primary
school
to
high
school,
Cheng
has
always
been
followed
by
a
group
of
classmates
with
love.
Cheng
was
born
in
Qiucun
town,
Guangde
city,
in
East
China's
Anhui
province
in
2001.
He
was
diagnosed
with
muscular
dystrophy(肌肉萎缩症)in
2008,
and
gradually
lost
his
ability
to
walk.
Muscular
dystrophy
is
a
group
of
diseases
that
cause
weakness
and
loss
of
muscles.
During
a
year
of
absence
from
school,
Cheng's
family
searched
for
medical
treatment
for
him
across
the
country,
but
Cheng's
condition
was
still
not
improving.
Later
he
insisted
on
returning
to
school
in
a
wheelchair.
In
2010,
eight
classmates
from
Qiucun
town's
Central
Primary
School
in
Guangde
city
set
up
a
love
support
group
to
take
care
of
Cheng.
The
little
bit
of
love
from
the
students
helped
to
build
Cheng's
confidence,
and
they
have
become
his
most
powerful
"support
group".
In
2014,
after
graduating
from
the
primary
school,
he
furthered
his
study
at
Qiucun
Middle
School.
Six
students
in
his
class
formed
a
new
support
group
to
allow
the
"relay
of
love"
to
continue.
In
2017,
Cheng
successfully
entered
Guangde
High
School,
and
another
six
new
students
took
the
baton(接力棒)and
continued
to
help
and
care
for
Cheng.
Time
flies,
and
Cheng
is
about
to
graduate
this
summer.
Cheng
and
his
classmates
also
took
the
national
college
entrance
examination(高考).
Along
the
way,
Cheng
faces
all
the
challenges
bravely
and
becomes
a
fighter.
He
has
always
kept
an
optimistic
attitude(乐观的态度)towards
life.
Today,
Cheng
has
scored
excellent
grades.
"After
the
college
entrance
examination,
the
students
will
start
a
new
life,
and
I
hope
everyone
has
a
bright
future,"
Cheng
says.
The
underlined

diagnosed
in
the
second
paragraph
probably
mens

答案及解析:
(1)
C
这篇文章主要讲的是史美国发明家Philo
Taylor
Farnsworth的故事,第一段介绍了他的一些主要发明及获得的奖励,所以这部分的作者意图就是概括他的科学成就,故选择C。
B
词意猜测题。根据后面的"were
built
in
his
name(以他的名字建造)"可知,这里是说很多的纪念馆以他的名字建筑,以此纪念他。
B
细节理解题。文章提到了他的发明a
magnetized
car
lock,但是与答案B概念不符。
C
推理归纳题。根据文章对Philo
T.
Farnsworth的介绍,我们得知他晚年身患疾病,生活并不幸福;而且,他的成绩取得是与人合作的结果,排除以上,故选择C。
A
根据第二段和最后一段的描述,Philo
T.
Farnsworth生于Utah,并且死于Utah;由第一段Although
this
device
isn’t
practical
enough
to
produce
nuclear
energy可知,他的发明Farnsworth–Hirsch
fusor并不成功;从最后一段他的去世时间判断,D项也不对。
答案及解析:
(2)
A
词意猜测题。根据下文"gradually
lost
his
ability
to
walk."(他逐渐失去了行走的能力),可知上句是说他在2008年被诊断为患有肌肉萎缩症。
B
细节阅读题。本文描述了他小学、初中和高中三个阶段的经历,通读全文可知,每个阶段都有一个爱心小组帮助他。
D
归纳判断题。本自然段讲述了在2008年被诊断为,继而失去行走的能力,所以D项符合题意。
D
此题也是细节理解题。由第三自然段"During
a
year
of
absence
from
school,"
可知A不对;不仅同学,而且还有老师及他的家人都给予了他很多帮助,所以B不对;从第三自然段“but
Cheng's
condition
was
still
not
improving."
得知他的身体状况并没有好转。
B
主旨大意归纳题。本文主要讲述的是同学和其他人对Cheng
Dongdong的关心和帮助,全文围绕一个“爱”字展开。
