10.Ben Underwood is blind.Both eyes were removed when he was just three years old,leaving him with no vision at all.So how on earth does he ride his bicycle,play football and basketball?
Ben uses many common aids for the blind,like speaking software.He's also written a book and does his schoolwork on a hi-tech Braille writer.But what's unusual is what he doesn't use.Ben has no guide dog and never uses a white cane.He doesn't even use his hands.Instead,he sees with sound.Amazingly,Ben's ears pick up the echoes(回声)and he can precisely locate where things are.Ben is the only person in the world who sees using nothing but echolocation.
Ben was born perfectly healthy,with dark eyes like his mum.But,when he was two she looked into his eyes and saw something was terribly wrong.This is a rare infant eye cancer that affects only one in every six million.In an attempt to save his sight,doctors immediately began intense chemo and radio therapy,but like a lead balloon.His eyes had been removed.
Just one year after the operation to remove his eyes,in the car he asked his mum what the big building was that they were passing.Ben's ears were picking up the sounds of the city traffic reflecting from the building's surfaces.His mum let him play in the street because his sound pictures seemed to make him more aware of danger than his sighted friends.
There's nothing his friends can do that Ben Underwood won't attempt and conquer.Doctors suspect that Ben Underwood has developed super-hearing to make for his loss of sight.However,tests show that he has only normal hearing.So,has Ben's brain learned to translate the sound he hears into visual information?

分析 短文主要讲了Ben Underwood失去眼睛后,使用听力代替视觉,能通过声音察觉事物.

30.D.细节理解题,根据句子He doesn't even use his hands.Instead,he sees with sound可知,Ben Underwood跟其他盲人一样使用耳朵而不是双手,故答案为D.
31.C.句子理解题,由后面一句His eyes had been removed"他的眼睛还是移除了"可以推测前面意思的治疗是没起作用的,故答案为C.

The passage tells us what family values are,how they are formed and the important role they play in holding the family together as well as shaping our own personality(高分句型一).Family values are what we live by,always directing what we do and what decisions we make.A child is born into a family and becomes a part of the society later.So there have to be certain principles in place to determine one's behaviour and ensure a harmonious society.
My family values were primarily shaped by my mother.In my childhood,she always taught me the importance of honesty,saying that mistakes in life are unavoidable,but I should never sacrifice my honesty to cover for my mistakes(高分句型二).
Honesty has been with me ever since.That is why many friends come to me for help.As my mother said,When we are honest,we earn others'trust and society's credit..
