AHank Viscardi was born without legs．He had not legs but stumps（残肢）that could be fitted with a kind of special boots, People stared at him with cruel interest．Children laughed at him and called him ‘Ape Man’ （猿人）because his arms practically dragged on the ground．Hank went to school like other boys．His grades were good and he needed only eight years to finish his schooling instead of the usual twelve．After graduating from school, he worked his way through college．He swept floors, waited on table, or worked in one of the college offices．During all this busy life, he had been moving around on his stumps．But one day the doctor told him even the stumps were not going to last much longer．He would soon have to use a wheel chair．Hank felt himself got cold all over．However, the doctor said there was a chance that he could be fitted with artificial legs（假腿）．Finally a leg maker was found and the day came when Hank stood up before the mirror, for the first time he saw himself as he has always wanted to be a full five feet eight inches tall．By this time he was already 26 years old．Hank had to learn to use his new legs．Again and again he marched the length of the room, and marched back again．There were times when he fell down on the floor, but he pulled himself up and went back to the endless marching．He went out on the street．He climbed stairs and learned to dance．He built a boat and learned to sail it．When World War II came, he talked the Red Cross into giving him a job．He took the regular training．He marched and drilled along with the other soldiers．Few knew that he was legless．This was the true story of Hank Viscardi, a man without legs．56．Children laughed at Hank and called him ‘Ape Man’ because．A．he didn’t talk to thenB．he kept away from themC．his arms touched the ground when he movedD．he couldn’t use his arms57．It can be inferred from the story that five feet eight inches tall is ．A．an average height for a fully grown personB．too tall for an average personC．too short for an average personD．none of the above58．The sentence “he talked the Red Cross into giving him a job” impl ies that the Red Cross A．was only glad to give him a jobB．gave him a job because he was a good soldierC．gave him a job after he talked to someone whom he knew in the organizationD．was not willing to give him to job at first59．When Hank marched and drilled along with the other soldiers, heA．did everything the other soldier didB．did most of the things the other soldiers didC．did most of the things the other soldiers didD．took some special training60．The writer suggests that Hank Viscardi ．A．had no friendsB．never saw himself as different from othersC．was very shyD．was too proud to accept help from othersBWhen we see well, we do not think about our eyes very often．It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are．People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes．Everything else seems blurry（unclear）．Many people who do a lot of work, such as writing, reading and sewing become near-sighted．Then People who are far-sighted suffer from just the opposite problem．They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm’s length．If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too．Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape．They have what is called astigmatism（散光）．This, too, can be corrected by glasses．Some people’s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts（白内障）．Long ago these people often became blind．Now however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove then．Having two good eyes is important for judging distances．Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle（角度）．To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object our of your other eye．You will find the object’s relation to the background and other things around it has changed．The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is．People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes．61．We should take good care of our eyes ．A．only when we can see wellB．only when we cannot see perfectlyC．even if we can see wellD．only when we realize how important our eyes are62．When things far away seem unclear, one is probablyA．near-sightedB．far-sightedC．astigmaticD．suffering from cataracts63．The underlined word suffer in the third paragraph probably means ．A．experience B．imagineC．feel pain D．are affected with64．Having two eyes instead of one is particularly useful forA．seeing at night B．seeing objects far awayC．looking over a wide area D．judging distances65．People who suffer from astigmatism have ．A．one eye bigger than the otherB．eyes that are not exactly the right shapeC．a difficulty that can be corrected by an operationD．an eye difficult that cannot be corrected by glasses．CToday I’ll be talking about the invention of the camera and photography．The camera is often thought to be a modern invention, but as early as 1727, a German physicist discovered that light darkens sliver salt．Used as a camera, a big box was set up, and a small hole was cut in one side to let the light in; he made temporary pictures on the salt．Sliver salt is still the base of the photographic film today．Then a French scientist made the first permanent picture by using a special piece of metal which was covered with silver salt．A photograph he made in 1826 still exists．The painter De Gear improved the process（制作法）by covering the metal also with placing the common salt which we can eat．This was in 1839, the official date of beginning of photographs．But the problem was the printing of the photographs．And it wasn’t until other scientists developed the kind of photographic paper we now use that good prints were possible and photography became truly modern．In the 1870’s, Matthew Bradey was able to take his famous pictures in American Civil War．In the 20’s of this century, Georges Mann of the United States simplified film developing（冲洗）,and Dr Edward Lane invented the so-called ‘Instant Camera’ which uses self-developing film．If we say photography came into existence in 1839, it follows that it took more than 100 years for the camera to reach its present condition of technical refinement（密度）．66．What discovery was the basis of photography?A．Light darkens silvers saltB．Light darkens natural saltC．Light darkens silverD．Light darkens self-developing film67．How was the first permanent picture made?A．By making use of special paper．B．By adding common salt on silver salt．C．By giving a slight colour to the silver saltD．By using a special piece of metal．68．What does the speaker regard as the official date of beginning of photograph?A．1727 B．1826 C．1839 D．187 69．According to the speaker why is Matthew Bradey remembered today?A．He was a soldierB．He took war photographsC．He painted portraitsD．He designed a portable camera．70．What did Doctor Edward Lane invent?A．A cheap process of developing film at homeB．A new kind of filmC．An automatic printerD．An ‘instant camera’ that develops its own film．注意事项：1．第二卷共两页，用钢笔或圆珠笔直接答在试卷上。
