一、语法选择

Dear Helen Keller,

My name is Amelia Grant. I live in a small city. There, my father has an oil factory. At the age of eight, something terrible happened while I 1 playing near an oil well. It made me lose most of my hearing.

A lot has changed for me 2 then. For one thing, I cannot hear music like before. I used to love listening to my mother sing songs. When I first lost my hearing, I was sad that I 3 never again hear my mother sing. But now I put my ear to her chest 4 the vibrations（震动）of her voice. Now, I feel music instead of hearing it.

Also, I have to go to 5 different school in another city—Texas School for the Deaf. It is over 300 kilometers away from my hometown. The teachers there are kind, 6 I can only see my parents during holidays. I miss them very much.

During 7 last winter holiday, my daddy gave me a book you wrote, The Story of My Life. From it, I learned a lot about you. When you first became deaf and blind, you had a hard time showing people 8 . Because of this, you would sometimes get mad and make 9 noises. Now I know your feelings and I 10 by your book. I’m going to write to you in a few days to tell you more.

Yours,

二、完形填空

Dear Helen Keller,

I’m glad to write to you again to tell you how your book has influenced me.

I read that you really brought your parents lots of 11 and they didn’t know what to do! Then they found a great 12 for you—Ms. Sullivan. With great patience, she showed and taught you that there was a word to describe every object and idea. Because of Ms. Sullivan, you’re now able to 13 and write by touch.

I also read that you love to ask questions. So now, I do the same thing as you do. It really helps me a lot to 14 . I am learning more now than I ever did before I lost my hearing. Maybe my mother is 15 when she says “every cloud has a silver lining.*” Even when something seems really bad, a 16 thing can come from it.

I have a best friend Anna Bailey in my city. When I lost my hearing, I 17 I would lose this friend. I thought she might want to play only with people who could hear. But I was wrong. Anna stayed 18 with me. She even helped me. She told me I would get used to being deaf. “It might take some time,” she said. “But you’ll find your feet.**” She made me feel 19 .

When I first heard about you, I was really 20 and interested. Even though you are deaf and blind, you can do almost anything! You even went to college. You are like a hero to me. I hope that one day I can visit you.

Yours,

Amelia Grant *The saying means that “every sad or difficult situation has a positive side”.

**The expression “to find your feet” means “to become confident in a new situation”. 11．A．trouble B．help C．advice D．luck 12．A．cleaner B．worker C．teacher D．driver 13．A．dance B．read C．play D．watch
