Question

【题目】

Zhao Jing is now a famous calligrapher(书法家) in Anhui. His works are getting more and more popular. Zhao Jing was a worker in a factory several years ago. His family lived a happy life until an accident happened to Zhao Jing.

One day, he was badly hurt by a large machine. The operation lasted for three hours. He woke up to find that he had lost both of his arms. That made him so sad that he even thought of ending his life. However, his wife's and parents' selfless love helped him to cheer up again. “I shouldn't depend on my parents or my wife for the rest of my life. I want to learn penmanship(书法)．” Zhao Jing told his family about his resolution.

Zhao Jing went from door to door to collect waste paper. He bit(咬) the writing brush with his teeth and began to write. He keeps on writing for thirty years. The piles of used paper and so many old brushes in the room made his dream come true. He is so good at penmanship that he has won lots of prizes.

“Never Give Up Your Dreams” is Zhao Jing's motto(座右铭) and he will continue his steps.

这篇文章讲了赵静在工厂上班时，因事故而失去了双臂，但人残志坚，用牙齿咬着毛笔练习书法，最后终于成功，成为一名书法家，并且获得许多奖项。

【1】句意：事故前赵静是做什么的？原文Zhao Jing was a worker in a factory several years ago.（几年前，赵静是一家工厂的工人。）说明了赵静的工作是一名工厂工人，故填He was a worker in a factory.

【2】句意：什么让赵静在手术后再次振作起来？原文However, his wife's and parents' selfless love helped him to cheer up again.（然而，他的妻子和父母的无私的爱让他再次振作起来。）说明了让赵静振作起来的原因，故填His wife's and parents' selfless love helped him to cheer up again.

【3】句意：赵静怎么练习写字？原文He bit(咬) the writing brush with his teeth and began to write.（他用牙咬着笔，然后开始写字。）说明了他练习的方法，故填He bit the writing brush with his teeth and began to write.

【4】made him so sad意为“让他非常悲伤”，so…that意为“如此…以至于…”，副词even意为“甚至”，think of意为“想…”，end his life意为“结束他的生命”，故翻译为：这让他非常悲痛，他甚至想过结束自己的生命。

【5】这篇文章讲的是赵静在工厂上班时，因事故而失去了双臂，但人残志坚，用牙齿咬着毛笔练习书法，最后终于成功，成为一名书法家，并且获得许多奖项。原文“Never Give Up Your Dreams” is Zhao Jing's motto(座右铭) and he will continue his steps.（“永不放弃你的梦想”是赵静的座右铭，他将继续他的步伐。）也进一步说明了文章的意义，标题可以是“永不放弃你的的梦想”Never Give Up Your Dreams。
