Helen Keller是很多人童年就知道的励志偶像，6月1日的NYT给出了一篇写她的文章，让我觉得没有比她更好的写作素材了。

先来看摘要：

Waltzing With Helen Keller

命运的舞者:海伦·凯勒

1.Helen Keller lost her sight and hearing 18 months after she was born. She had not learned how to speak and was plunged into what she called “the unconsciousness of a newborn baby,” an isolated and seemingly inescapable prison.

出生18个月后，海伦·凯勒(Helen Keller)失去了视力和听力。还没学会说话的凯勒，陷入了她所说的“新生儿般的无意识状态”，就像一个与外隔绝、看不到出路的牢笼。

(1).was plunged into 陷入

(2).unconsciousness 无意识

(3).inescapable prison 无路可逃的监狱

2.But by the time Ms. Keller died at 87, on June 1, 1968, she had persevered.

3.Her front-page obituary said that “she could ‘see’ and ‘hear’ with exceptional acuity; she even learned to talk passably and to dance in time to a fox trot or a waltz.”

(1)front-page obituary 头版讣告

（2）with exceptional acuity： 非常敏锐（状语）

with exceptional careness = very carefully 非常仔细

（3）passably 过得去

参考译文：但直到1968年6月1日以87岁的高龄去世之前，凯勒一直在坚持。刊登在头版的讣告称，“她能够异常敏锐地‘看’和‘听’；她甚至学会了说话，说得还可以，并且学会了跟随狐步舞曲或华尔兹舞曲的节奏跳舞。”

4.Ms. Keller became a captivating writer, chronicling her life in memoirs, and a kind of motivational speaker, aided by Ms. Sullivan onstage.

（1）captivating 令人着迷的

（2）chronicling 记录

chronic 慢性的

（3） motivational speaker 励志演讲者

凯勒成了一位令人着迷的作家，用回忆录记载了自己的人生。在沙利文的协助下，她还成了某种励志演说家。

5.“I seldom think about my limitations, and they never make me sad. Perhaps there is a touch of yearning at times, but it is vague, like a breeze among flowers. The wind passes, and the flowers are content.”

“我很少想我的缺陷，它们从来不会让我感到伤心。或许有时候会有一丝向往，但很轻微，就像微风吹过花丛一样。风过后，花朵心满意足

今天的句子：

Ms. Keller’s achievements and indomitable spirit helped alter public perceptions of disabled people, showing them as overcoming obstacles rather than as inviting only pity.

（1）indomitable spirit 不屈的精神

（2） public perceptions 公众的看法

今天的配图文字也是需要大家背诵的句子！找这个配图也是很花时间啊：）

谢谢你用赞赏来肯定我！

昨天题目的解析：

Since OPEC agreed to supply-cuts in March, the price of crude oil has jumped to almost $26 a barrel, up from less than $10 last December. The oil price was given another push up this week when Iraq suspended oil exports. Strengthening economic growth, at the same time as winter grips the northern hemisphere, could push the price higher still in the short term.

51.The main reason for the latest rise of oil price is ________.

[A] global inflation

[B] reduction in supply

[C] fast growth in economy

[D] Iraq’s suspension of exports

解析：

在这里我给大家提示一下：latest=recently 最近；就是一个时间概念，没有比较的含义！所以latest 压根就不是一个提示词！

题干 ： “最近，油价下降了，主要原因是什么！”

不是问：“最近的原因的是什么！”

你见过“最近的原因”和“最远的原因”吗？有这样说话的吗？

出题人就是在给你设一个坑，等你去选D！

D选项和B 选项一比，那个更主要嘛！肯定是“减少供给”是主要原因嘛！

B选项的减少供给说的很模糊，没说是谁减少的！这样刚好可以替换第一句的

OPEC减少供给！OPEC是全球的石油输出国国家组织！比伊拉克不知道大了多少倍！B为正确选项！你选对了吗！

D选项的伊拉克肯定不可能是主要原因！

在文章没有提供更多的信息的情况下，基本的常识就是答案依据了哦！

你别觉得不合理！你能找到更好的反驳的理由吗！而且你要学会接受！

从赞赏KK开始接受吧！
