Here is an interview with a painter. Read and choose the best.
Reporter:Mr Shum, you were one of Taiwan’s most outstanding youths last year. Why was that?
Mr Shum:Well, I can tell you that there are two reasons.First, I am a painter. Second, and more important reason is I am handicapped﹙残疾的﹚。I have no arms and only one leg.
Reporter:Well, how do you paint then if you’ve got no arms? Do you use your foot?
Mr Shum:Hah! For some handicapped people, it’s true and they are able to use their feet.No,I use my mouth. I put my paintbrush or my crayons or pencils or whatever I am using in my mouth. I hold it firmly in my teeth and paint or draw like that. It was a little strange for me at first, but it quickly became very easy.
Reporter:I know you feel that you are first a painter and only secondly that you are a disablbed person, but can we talk first about your handicap?
Mr Shum:Well,in fact I think of myself firstly as a person, secondly as a painter and thirdly as someone with a physical handicap. Can I say that I am not happy with the word “handicapped”?
I am a popular painter because my paintings are good, not because they were painted by a handicapped person. “handicapped”means you can’t do anything. It is difficult for me to do some things like getting dressed.
Reporter: Were you born with your handicap?
Mr Shum:No. An accident happened to me when I was 15 years old.After that I became depressed﹙沮丧﹚and even tried to end my life, but my mother was always there for me.

解析

试题分析：这是对画家Mr Shum的一个采访。做为一个没有胳膊只有一条腿的残疾人，Mr Shum认为他首先是一个人，其次是一个画家，最后才是一个肢体有残疾的人。困难并不可怕，重要的是看你怎样去面对。
小题1:细节理解题。根据I have no arms and only one leg.我没有胳膊只有一条腿。可知他没有胳膊，故选D。
小题2:细节理解题。根据I think of myself firstly as a person, secondly as a painter and thirdly as someone with a physical handicap.我认为自己首先是一个人，其次是一个画家，然后才是一个肢体残缺的人。可知他认为自己首先是人，故选A。
小题3:推理判断题。根据“handicapped”means you can’t do anything. “残疾的”意思就是你不能做什么事。表明there are some things he can’t do有一些事情他不能做，故选B。
小题4:词义猜测题。根据I hold it firmly in my teeth and paint or draw like that. 我用牙齿紧紧地咬住笔来画。可知只有咬紧笔才能画成，故选A。
小题5:主旨大意题。综合全文，根据Mr Shum的讲述，我们能学到：困难不可怕，重要的是看你怎样去面对。故选D。
