Question

【题目】

A boy named Reggie was well-known in his hometown because he couldn’t hear anything. He was born deaf. Although people liked him a lot, they also treated him much more differently than other people. The other children worried that they might hurt him while playing together. Adults acted like he was unable to understand them, as if he was a baby.

However, this year, people got to understand Reggie a little better. On Reggie’s birthday, everyone in town would wear earplugs (耳塞) so that they couldn’t hear anything either. This day came to be known as the Day of Silence. People became aware of how difficult life could be when you can’t hear anything. They also learned that Reggie had many skills.

On that day, no one thought of Reggie as just a deaf person People saw a whole new side of him. They paid more attention to the things he said. They were also surprised by his smartness, creativity, and his ability to find a solution to nearly any problem that he faced. They realized that he had always been like that, and that he simply needed to communicate with others in a different way. In the end, he was really just like any other little boy.

本文讲述了一个天生耳聋的小男孩雷吉，人们担心伤害到他的自尊心，于是，在镇上确定“安静日”，通过这样做，人们才了解了真正的雷吉。也就是在那一天，小镇上的人们都才意识到必须给别人展示自身价值的机会。

【1】细节理解题。A. Reggie’s health. 雷吉的健康。B. Reggie’s feeling. 雷吉的感受。C. Reggie’s toys. 雷吉的玩具。D. Reggie’s earplugs. .雷吉的耳塞。根据The other children worried that they might hurt him while playing together. 其他孩子担心在一起玩耍时可能会伤害他。可知，他们担心会伤到雷吉的健康。故选A。

【2】细节理解题。根据On Reggie’s birthday, everyone in town would wear earplugs (耳塞) so that they couldn’t hear anything either. This day came to be known as the Day of Silence. People became aware of how difficult life could be when you can’t hear anything. 在雷吉的生日那天，镇上的每个人都会戴耳塞，这样他们也听不到任何声音。这一天被称为沉默日。当你什么都听不见的时候，人们开始意识到生活是多么艰难。可知，在“安静日”里发生了人们庆祝雷吉的生日；雷吉镇的人戴耳塞；人们学会了聋是什么感觉。至于“人们去小镇露营”在短文中没有提到。因此提到的有abc，故选A。

【3】细节理解题。题干的意思是：关于雷吉，以下哪一项是正确的？根据He was born deaf. 他生来就是聋子。可知，他不是因疾病而聋了。因此选项A不对；根据They were also surprised by his smartness, creativity, and his ability to find a solution to nearly any problem that he faced. 他们还惊讶于他的聪明、创造力，以及他能够找到解决他面临的几乎任何问题的方法。可知，说他“他很容易变得悲伤和愤怒。”这句话是错误的。因此选项B不对；由句子They realized that he had always been like that, and that he simply needed to communicate with others in a different way. 他们意识到他一直都是这样的，他只需要用不同的方式与他人交流。可知，他能和别人交流。因此选项D不对；根据In the end, he was really just like any other little boy. 最后，他真的和其他小男孩一样。可以推知，雷吉接受了不同的治疗。因此选项C正确。故选C。

【4】细节理解题。根据On the Day of Silence, people came to know Reggie’s true nature. They learned that although most of us are different from each other-sometimes in big ways-we are still mostly the same in our hearts and minds. 在“安静日”的那天，人们开始了解雷吉的真实本性。他们了解到，虽然我们大多数人有时在很大程度上是不同的，但我们的内心和思想基本上还是一样的。可知，雷吉和其他小男孩是一样的。故选D。
