Question

20．Last December，Doris Low turned 90．Once a week she still drives to the Canadian National Institute for the Blind （CNIB） in Toronto，where she helps transform literature into Braille（盲文） to bring the power of story and knowledge to the ears and minds of blind readers．She has been volunteering her time and talents to such enterprises for more than 40 years．
　　After working in the business world for a while，Low got fed up．So she turned to teaching at a technical school and later moved into the library．
    Low's mother liked reading．As her eyes began to fail，Low read to her．Then"hearing an advertisement encouraging people to learn Braille，I decided to give it a try．"In 1973，she was certified as a Braille transcriber （转译者） and began transcribing books as a volunteer for the CNIB library．
　　The job was strenuous---she could get to the end of a page，make a mistake on the last line，and have to do the whole thing again．For a number of years，Low also worked in the CNIB sound studio reading books onto tape．Three years ago，she took up proofreading （校对） at the CNIB's word factory．
　　In April，during Volunteer Week，the CNIB recognized Low for her great contributions．Thanks to volunteers like Low，the CNIB library has got more than 80，000 accessible materials for people unable to read traditional print．"I can't imagine how many readers of all ages have benefited from Doris's contribution as a skilled volunteer through her rich voice and her high degree of accuracy in the hundreds of books she has brailled and proof-read over the years---and she is still doing so，"said a CNIB official．
"For me，"said Low，"the CNIB is more than just a place to volunteer．Three things matter most in my life：a little play，a little work，a little love．I've found them all here．"

（ no more than 8 words）She helps transform literature into Braille （ for blind readers/the blind）
72．Why did Low learn Braille？（ no more than 15 words）（Because ） her mother's eyes began to fail ans she heard an/the advertisement．

Answer 1

分析 文章讲述了90岁高龄的Doris Low 仍然坚持一周一次去加拿大用故事和知识去帮助那些文盲的人，并介绍了在做这份志愿者工作中所遇到的一些困难，而且她自己也从中获得了快乐．

解答 71．She helps transform literature into Braille （ for blind readers/the blind）细节题．
根据第一段第2行where she helps transform literature into Braille（盲文） to bring the power of story and knowledge to the hears and minds of blind readers．可知她仍然在为盲人的阅读和知识而翻译那些盲文．
72．（Because ） her mother's eyes began to fail ans she heard an/the advertisement．细节题．
根据文章第三段1，2行Low's mother liked reading．As her eyes began to fail，low read to her．Then"hearing an advertisement encouraging people to learn Braille，I decided to give it a try．"可知她的母亲眼睛看不见了，她又听说古人人们学习盲文的广告，所以她决定这样做．
73．Hard/tiring/Tough推理题．
根据下一句she could get to the end of a page，make a mistake on the last line，and have to do the whole thing again．可知如果她犯了一个错误，那么要全部都重新来过．说明这份工作很困难，要求很细心．而且很乏味．
74．she has brailled and proofread hundreds of books，and read books onto tape．细节题．
根据文章倒数第二段后三行I can't imagine how many readers of all ages have benefited from Doris's contribution as a skilled volunteer through her rich voice and her high degree of accuracy in the hundreds of books she has brailled and proofread over the years---and she is still doing so，"said a CNIB official．可知她为这个图书馆转换了很多盲文书籍还为很多的磁带配音．
75．Low is kind and helpful because she has devoted much time to transcribing books into Braille as a volunteer．细节题．
她是一个很善良的人，作为志愿者她为了看不见的盲人转换了很多盲文书籍还为很多的磁带配音．根据文章最后Three things matter most in my life：a little play，a little work，a little love．I've found them all here．"可知她以帮助他人为乐．
