    3．After a terrible electrical accident，which caused him to become both blind and deaf，the whole world became completely dark and quiet for Robert Edwards for almost ten years．The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life．His family，especially his wife，did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live．
    One hot summer afternoon，he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once．He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet，but he was struck by the lightning．Witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up some 20 minutes later lying face down in muddy water at the base of the tree．He was trembling badly，but when he opened his eyes，he could hardly believe what he saw：a plough and a wall．When Mrs．Edwards came running up to him，shouting to their neighbors to call for help，he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years．
    The news of Robert regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread，and many doctors came to examine him．Most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning．However，none of them could give a convincing answer as to why this should have happened．The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that，since Robert lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock，perhaps，the only way for him to regain them was by another sudden shock．

    21．The reason for Robert's attempts to kill himself was thatB．
    A．a terrible traffic accident happened to him     
    B．he had to live in a dark and silent world
    C．he was struck by the lightning once more    
    D．nobody in the world cared about him
    22．What was Robert doing when he was struck by the lightning？A
    A．Sheltering from the rain under a tree．
    B．Driving a car．
    C．Taking a walk with a stick．
    D．Lying on the ground．
    23．We can infer from the text thatA．
    A．there was no accurate explanation for Robert's recovery
    B．many doctors came because Robert was badly injured
    C．Robert's wife sent for doctors immediately after the shock
    D．a sudden injury in the head led to Robert's recovery
    24．What's the best title of the whole passage？C
    A．A Terrible Electrical Accident          
    B．Robert Edwards and His Wife
    C．What a Sudden Shock             
    D．An Unforgettable Experience．

    分析 本文主要讲述了在一次可怕的电气事故后，罗伯特变成了盲聋人，使他一度失去了生活的希望，在他妻子的鼓励下他活了下去，十年后，他遇到了一场大的雷雨被闪电击中，清醒后发现自己能看见也能听见，医生都来检查他也没有发现他恢复的原因．

    解答 21．B 细节理解题．由第一段第三行The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life．可知罗伯特失去了视觉与听力使他想自杀，故选B
    22．A 细节理解题．由第二段第二行He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet，but he was struck by the lightning．可知当下雨的时候他躲在一棵大树下避雨，故选A
    23．A 推理判断题．由最后一段However，none of them could give a convincing answer as to why this should have happened．可知没有人能确定他为什么会突然恢复视力与听力，故选A
    24．C 主旨大意题．文章主要是围绕着sudden shock展开的，罗伯特失去听力与视力是因为意外的电气事故，而他的恢复也是由一场意外的雷雨，故选C

    点评 考点：主要考查学生把握全文主题和理解中心思想的能力．同时在文章中找到相关细节，回答对应题目，对文章有整体的把握．

    Norm's passion to help the families of other cancer patients was born out of his grief but Norm's personal loss has resulted in an act of kindness that honours the memory of the wife he has lost．He makes the world a better place．

    "I had a really terrifying experience with a hurricane，"said Peyton．"When I was 4，I experienced Hurricane Wilma．When it hit Florida in October 2005，my family and I crowded in a closet and watched the storm bring damage and death to our area，feeling terrible and hopeless．"
    Saltwater flooding caused great damage，which made him think about how people can prepare for floods．Peyton，who has been solving math problems since he was 3，eventually came up with the sandless sandbag．

    49．when the sandless sandbag is wet，it willC．
