4.After a terrible electrical accident,which caused him to become both blind and deaf,the whole world became completely dark and quiet for Robert Edwards for almost ten years.The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life.His family,especially his wife,did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live.One hot summer afternoon,he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once.He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet,but he was struck by the lightning.Witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up some 20minutes later lying face down in muddy water at the base of the tree.He was trembling badly,but when he opened his eyes,he could hardly believe what he saw:a plough and a wall.When Mrs.Edwards came running up to him,shouting to their neighbors to call for help,he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years.
The news of Robert regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread,and many doctors came to examine him.Most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning.However,none of them could give a convincing answer as to why this should have happened.The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that,since Robert lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock,perhaps,the only way for him to regain them was by another sudden shock.

26.B.推理判断题.根据文章最后一段"The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that,since Edwards lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock in a terrible accident,perhaps the only way for them to regain was by another sudden shock"这是我的一个医生给出的唯一合理的解释,因为爱德华兹失去了他的视力和听力的一种突然的冲击在一场可怕的车祸,或许他们恢复的唯一途径是通过另一个突如其来的打击;可知没有准确的解释;故选B.
