Last summer I went through a training program and became a literacy volunteer. The training I received, though excellent, did not tell me how it was to work with a real student. When I began to discover what other people’s lives were like because they could not read, I realized the true importance of reading.
My first student Marie was a 44-year-old single mother of three. In the first lesson, I found out that she walked two miles to the nearest supermarket twice a week because she didn’t know which bus to take. When I told her I would get her a bus schedule, she told me it would not help because she could not read it. She said she also had difficulty once she got to the supermarket because she couldn’t always remember what she needed. Since she did not know words, she could not write out a shopping list. Also, she could only recognize items by sight, so if the product had a different label she would not recognize it as the product she wanted. As we worked together, 1earning how to read built Marie’s self-confidence, which encouraged her to continue in her studies. She began to make rapid progress and was even able to take the bus to the supermarket. At the end of the program, she began helping her youngest son, Tony, a shy first grader, with his reading.
As a literacy volunteer, I learned a great deal about teaching and helping others. In fact, I may have learned more from the experience than Marie did.
16. What did the speaker do last summer?
17. How did Marie use to find the goods she wanted in the supermarket?
18. How was Marie’s study during the summer?
选项
A、She worked in a supermarket for tuition.
B、She helped someone to learn to read.
C、She gave single mothers the help that they needed.
D、She went to a training program to help a volunteer.
答案
B
解析
推断题。短文开篇提到,去年夏天我参加了一个培训课程,成为了一名扫盲志愿者。由此可以直接推知,speaker在暑期里教别人识字,故B正确。而且下文还有暗示:“我的第一位学生Marie...”,这可以让考生更加肯定B为正确答案。D为强干扰项,错在help一词上,应为become才正确,speaker是要成为一名扫盲志愿者而不是帮助一位志愿者。虽然文中提到speaker的第一个学生是单亲妈妈,但并不表示她只帮助单亲妈妈,C属于过度概括,故不正确。
