參考答案：

(B)：BABC

(C)：CBCA

(D)

1o根據(jù)第二段中“Butbythetimehewassevenyearsold,hehaddevelopedatechniquefor

feelingtheworldaroundhim:heclickedwithhismouthandlistenedforthereturningechoes.(但

在他七歲的時(shí)候，他已經(jīng)發(fā)展出了一種感受周?chē)澜绲募夹g(shù)：他用嘴發(fā)出咔噠咔噠的聲音，

聽(tīng)著聲音的回音)”可知，Ben的眼睛被摘除后，他通過(guò)回聲定位周?chē)h(huán)境。故選D。

2o根據(jù)畫(huà)線詞后文“butthousandsofblindpeoplehaveperfectedthisskill,justlikeBen

did”可知，回聲定位對(duì)人類(lèi)來(lái)說(shuō)可能聽(tīng)起來(lái)是一項(xiàng)不太可能的技能，但成千上萬(wàn)的盲人已

經(jīng)完善了這項(xiàng)技能，就像Ben一樣。由此推知，畫(huà)線詞意思是“技能”。A.Skill.技能；B.Task.

任務(wù)；C.Sense.感覺(jué)；D.Invention.發(fā)明。故選A。

3。根據(jù)第一段的"ForBen,visionwasgoneforever"（對(duì)于Ben來(lái)說(shuō)視覺(jué)永遠(yuǎn)失去了）

和最后一段中"InBen'scase,hisbrain'sflexiblewiringrepurposedhisvisualcortexfor

processingsound.Asaresult,Benhadmoreneuronsavailabletodealwithlisteninginformation,

andthisincreasedprocessingpowerallowedBentointerpretsoundwavesinshockingdetail.（在

Ben的例子中，他大腦的靈活線路改變了他的視覺(jué)皮層處理聲音的功能。結(jié)果，Ben有了更

多的神經(jīng)元可用來(lái)處理聽(tīng)到的信息，這種增強(qiáng)的處理能力使Ben能夠以驚人的細(xì)節(jié)解釋聲

波）”可知，Ben雖然失去了視力，但發(fā)展出了回聲定位的技能，所以他的故事告訴我們“天

無(wú)絕人之路”的道理。故選C。

4o根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段"MotherNaturefilledourbrainswithflexibilitytoadaptto

circumstances.Justassharpteethandfastlegsareusefulforsurvival,soisthebrain'sabilityto

reset,whichallowsforlearning,memory,anddieabilitytodevelopnewskills.（大自然讓我們的

除了雙眼，結(jié)果他在七歲時(shí)發(fā)展出了回聲定位的技能。大自然讓我們的大腦充滿(mǎn)了適應(yīng)環(huán)境
