Question

Janice Fialka showed a new documentary (纪录片) about her cognitively (认知地) disabled son at schools and seminars across the country.Everyone seemed to enjoy it，but one comment from a teacher proved her family’s investment to Fialka was a success.

“In Baltimore an early childhood teacher came up and said，‘I have to apologize to the family of a 4?year old with Down Syndrome (先天愚型)，’”Fialka said.“She said，‘I told them to be more realistic about their dreams for him.Now I have to tell them I’m sorry.’”

The story of Micah Fialka?Feldman，a 22?year?old Oakland University student，is meant to show parents，educators and the disabled anything is possible.

Fialka?Feldman wrote in an essay titled “I wanted to go to college and my dream came true”．A lot of people didn’t think he could go to college，but because family and friends believed in him he learned how to take public transportation to campus and found teachers who helped him pick the best classes.

The title of the film Through the Same Door came from a day when Fialka?Feldman，who was enrolled in a first grade special education program，told his parents he wanted to walk through the same door as the rest of the kids at his school.It led him to becoming the first student with cognitive disabilities in mainstream classrooms in Berkley.

Though he can’t read or write on his own，Fialka?Feldman reached amazing heights with the help of voice recognition computer software，tutors，and the embrace (接受) of his community.

At Berkley High School，Fialka?Feldman won the Social Studies Department Award for civic (公民的) involvement.In 2004 he received the Michigan “Yes，I Can” award for self?advocacy (自强)．

He finished high school in 2003 with a certificate of attendance，took a 10?day trip through Israel with friends last year，and enrolled at Oakland University through the Transitions Program，which is geared (使适合于) to help the disabled go from high school to college.

Fialka said he’s the happiest kid in the world.Everyone should be so happy.

Answer 1

【答案】

1.A

2.B

3.D

4.C

【解析】

1.

解析　主旨大意题。文章介绍“智障”青年Fialka?Feldman自强不息，实现自己的大学梦的故事，因此A项恰如其分地反映了文章的主题。

2.2】　B

解析　推理判断题。这位老师告诉“智障”儿童的父母要实事求是地对待孩子的梦想，不要对他期望太高。但看了纪录片以后，她认识到自己错了，这说明她原来认为不应该对“智障”儿童抱太大期望。

3.3】　D

解析　细节理解题。由文章倒数第三段内容可知，D项与文章信息不符，civic involvement是他获得另一个奖项的原因。

4.4】C

解析　细节理解题。根据文章的叙述可知，Fialka?Feldman上一年级应该排在第一个，纪录片上映应该排在最后。故C项正确。
