Question

I have a good memory of my grandfather，Jack. He was sitting in his armchair in the front room.
I sat next to him. We were reading aloud，our heads bent over the page in front of us，a finger marking the words；separated by seven decades，brought together by words. It's a common scene in British families；however，in our case，the usual order of things is reversed（颠倒）．Granddad had been blind since I was tiny，so I was reading to him.When reading aloud，people usually read something that's of interest to the listener. So I didn't read children's books；I read the sorts of things Granddad liked to hear about. Much of the vocabulary in Granddad’s reading material was far beyond me. When I met unfamiliar words，I'd spell them out.
Granddad would help me. It must have been painful for him to hear news；but he never hurried me along or complained. Our reading wasn't really about getting knowledge. It was a way for us to spend time together.
My grandfather wasn't always blind. He had been a good carpenter（木匠）．The first Christmas of my parents' marriage，he built my mother a bookcase，which now belongs to my son Jonah，providing a link between four generations.
I was a fortunate child；I spent a lot of time with my grandfather，and he opened the world to me in a particular way. Reading was our way of building a relationship that has had a lasting effect on me. In the school holidays，I sometimes accompanied him on trips to the seaside with the local association for the blind. This might seem strange，but I felt that my personal value was realized because I could finally do something for Granddad.
A decade later，I found a position in a nursing home，which reminded me of my early experiences；reading to senior citizens was a connection back to Granddad. More than simple conversation，reading aloud is a connection between two individuals and it can have a big emotional（情感的）effect on elderly people

BDA
试题分析：作者在文中回忆了祖孙二人一起读书的场景，因为祖父失明，所以小小的作者就充当起了祖父的眼睛，给他念书念报，而且陪他一起去海边，在做这些事情的过程中作者感觉非常骄傲自豪，体会到了帮助别人是自我价值的一种体现。
1.B细节理解题。根据首段中separated by seven decades，可知祖孙二人相差70岁，故选B。
2.D细节理解题。根据文中When reading aloud，people usually read something that's of interest to the listener. So I didn't read children's books；可知D为正确选项。
3.A推理判断题。从文章最后 but I felt that my personal value was realized because I could finally do something for Granddad.可知作者认为帮助祖父是自我价值的体现，由此可知A选项正确。
