The Human Camera

There is not anybody else quite like Stephen Wiltshire. Born in 1974, Stephen was always different. 【1】 In fact, he talked to nobody, showed no interest in school subjects and wasn’t able to sit still. Stephen was later told that he had autism(自闭症). He didn’t learn fully to talk until he was nine years old and he didn’t manage to pass his exams. 【2】 Art became his way to communicate.

He started by drawing funny pictures of his teachers, but soon began to draw buildings. His eye for detail was perfect. He could see a building just once and remember everything about it. 【3】 Hours later, in front of TV cameras, he managed to draw this building, with the time on the station clock saying 11:20, the exact time when he was there. The television programme made him famous overnight in the UK.

【4】 He has become a well-known artist, published four books of his drawings, taken helicopter(直升机) rides above the world’s great cities and drawn amazing pictures of them, and opened his own art gallery, where he now works, in London.

His drawings are correct and true in every detail—he always manages to draw everything in the right place. 【5】 In 2006, he was given an MBE(Member of the Order British Empire) by the Queen of England for services to art.

A. Floating Cities was his third book.

B. As a child, he couldn’t make friends.

C. Besides, they are also beautiful to look at.

D. Luckily he found one thing he liked doing: drawing.

E. After that, many great things have happened to Stephen.

F. In 1987, he saw a train station in London called St Pancras.

G. On 15 February 2008, ABC News named him Person of the Week.

【解析】

试题分析：文章介绍了Stephen Wiltshire虽然从小患有自闭症，但酷爱画画，对美好的东西过目不忘。他的画准确、真实、优美。之后他通过电视节目一夜成名，并开画展、出书，成为著名作家。

【1】B考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。上句讲Stephen Wiltshire与众不同，下句讲他不喜欢和别人说话，对学习不感兴趣等具体表现。B项“小时候他不会交朋友”符合上下文语境，故选B。

【2】D考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。上句讲他表达能力差，学习成绩不好。下句讲艺术成了他的交流方式，D项“幸运的是他找到了一件喜欢的事——画画”承上启下，故选D。

【3】F考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。上句讲他对建筑记忆力非常好，看一次就能记住。F项是具体例子，根据下文的this building和the time on the station clock可知看到的是车站，故选F。

【4】E考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。上文讲由于他出色的表现，电视节目让他一夜成名，下文讲他成了出名的画家，出书和办画展。E项“从那以后在他身上发生了许多变化”承上启下，故选E。

【5】C考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。上句讲他的画的特点：准确、真实。C项：“除此之外他的画特别好看”是另一个特点，与上句并列，故选C。
