Unit 1　People of Achievement The Firm Helen Keller 　　 In 1882 a baby girl caught a fever that was so fierce she nearly died. She survived but the fever left its mark—she could no longer see or hear. Because she could not hear she also found it very difficult to speak. 　　 So how did this child, blinded and deafened at 19 months old, grow up to become a world-famous author and public speaker? 　　 The fever cut her off from the outside world, depriving her of sight and sound. It was as if she had been thrown into a dark prison cell from which there could be no release. 　　 Before her seventh birthday, the family hired a private tutor—Anne Sullivan. Anne was careful to teach Helen especially those subjects in which she was interested. As a result Helen became gentler and she soon learnt to read and write in Braille. She also learnt to read people’s lips by pressing her finger-tips against them and feeling the movement and vibrations. This method is called Tadoma and it is a skill that very, very few people manage to acquire. She also learnt to speak, a major achievement for someone who could not hear at all. 　 Helen proved to be a remarkable scholar. While she was still at college she wrote ‘The Story of My Life’. This was an immediate success and earned her enough money to buy her own house. 　　 She toured the country, giving lecture after lecture. Many books were written about her and several plays and films were made about her life. Eventually she became so famous that she was invited abroad and received many honors from foreign universities and monarchs. In 1932 she became a vice-president of the Royal National Institute for the Blind in the United Kingdom. 　　 After her death in 1968 an organization was set up in her name to combat blindness in the developing world. Today that agency, Helen Keller International, is one of the biggest organizations working with blind people overseas. 　　 As a matter of fact, Helen is an outstanding person who defeated various difficulties and succeeded in the end. We teenagers should learn from her and manage to control ourselves and do more contributions to our country. 坚强的海伦 · 凯勒 　　 1882 年 , 一名女婴因发高烧差点丧命。她虽幸存下来 , 但发烧给她留下了后遗症 —— 她再也看不见、听不见。因为听不见 , 她发现想讲话也变得很困难。 　　那么 , 这个 19 个月大的失明和耳聋的孩子 , 是如何成长为世界著名的作家和演说家的呢 ? 　 发烧使她与外界隔绝 , 失去了视力和声音。就好像她被扔进了一个黑暗的牢房 , 不能被释放。 　　在她快到七岁生日时 , 家里便雇了一名家庭教师 —— 安妮 · 沙利文。安妮悉心地教海伦 , 特别是她感兴趣的东西。这样海伦变得温和了而且很快学会了用布莱叶盲文朗读和写作。靠用指尖接触说话人的嘴唇去感受运动和震动 , 她又学会了触唇意识。这种方法被称作泰德马 , 是一种很少有人掌握的技能。她也学会了讲话 , 这对失聪的人来说是个巨大的成就。 　　海伦证明了自己是个出色的学者 , 上大学时她就写了 《 我的生命 》 。这使她立即获得成功从而挣了足够的钱为自己购买一套住房。 　　她周游全国 , 一次又一次地演讲。许多书都是写她的 , 一些戏剧和电影是关于她的生活的。最终她名扬四海 , 被邀请到国外 , 并获得了许多外国大学和君主颁发的荣誉。 1932 年 , 她成为英国皇家国家盲人研究所的副所长。 　　 1968 年她去世后 , 一个以她的名字命名的组织建立起来 , 该组织旨在与发展中国家存在的失明缺陷斗争。如今这所机构 , “ 海伦 · 凯勒国际基金会” , 是海外向盲人提供帮助的最大组织之一。 　　事实上 , 海伦是一个杰出的人 , 她战胜了各种困难 , 最终取得了成功。 我们青少年应该向她学习 , 控制自己 , 对国家做出更多的贡献。 【 导语 】 Carry on till tomorrow 是由被誉为“穷人的甲壳虫” badfinger( 坏手指 ) 乐队演唱的。这是一首励志歌曲 , 整首歌字里行间都充满了珍惜光阴对梦想永不言弃的信念。它在反复告诉我们生活的不顺只是暂时的 , 乌云也总有散尽的时候 , 深呼吸 , 鼓起勇气再坚持一会 , 一定会守得云开见月明。  · ① _____________________ ( 坚持到明天 )  注 : 听音填空 In younger days I told myself my life would be my own And I’d leave the place where sunshine never ②_____ For my life’s too short for waiting Carry On Till Tomorrow shone When I see the rising sun Then I know again that I must carry on Carry on carry on carry on ③_______ on the wings of freedom Leave this stormy day And we’ll ride to tomorrow’s golden fields For my life’s too short for waiting Drifting When I see the rising sun Then I know again that I must carry on Carry on till tomorrow There’s no reason to look back Carry on carry on carry on And when the heavy journey’s done I’ll rest my ④______ head weary For the world and it’s colours will be mine For my life’s too short for waiting When I see the ⑤__________  Then I know again that I must carry on Carry on carry on carry on Carry on carry on carry on Carry on carry on carry on setting sun 【 词海拾贝 】 【 听力微语系列 】 关于人物关系、聚会、职业、身份、理想、成就等方面的听力试题主要考查细节。多为以 when 或 where 、 how 、 what 等开头的特殊疑问句 , 如 : 　　 What is the man (woman)?
