Blind from birth, I have never had the opportunity to see myself and have been completely dependent on the image I create in the eyes of others.

There are those who believe that   41   I can’t see, I obviously also cannot hear. Very often people will talk with me at the top of their   42  . Conversely (相反地) to this, people will also often   43  , thinking that since my eyes don’t work, my ears don’t either. For example, when I go to the airport and ask the ticket agent for   44   to the plane, he or she will always pick up the phone and call a ground hostess in a very low voice. “Hi, Jane, we’ve got a 76 here.” I have concluded that the word “  45  ” is not used because they are unwilling to inform me of my condition of which I may not have been previously   46  .

On the other hand, others know that of course I can hear, but believe that I can’t talk. Once I became ill and was hospitalized. Immediately after I was   47  , I was wheeled down to the X-ray room. Just at the door sat an elderly woman (judging from her voice) asked the orderly (护工) who had been wheeling me: “What is his name?” “What’s your name?” the orderly   48   to me. “Harold Krents”, I replied. “Harold Krents”, he repeated. “When was he born?” “When were you born?” This continued for about five minutes before I finally interrupted, “Look, this is absolutely   49  . OK, I can’t see, but it’s going to become pretty   50   to both of you that I don’t need an interpreter.” “He says he doesn’t need an interpreter,” the orderly reported to the woman.

The   51   misconception of all is the view that because I can’t see, I can’t   52  . I was turned down by over forty law firms,   53   my qualifications included a cum laude (优等成绩) degree from Harvard Law School. The   54   to find jobs, the continuous   55   of being told that it was impossible for a blind person to   56   law, the rejection letter, not based on my lack of   57   but rather on my disability, will always remain one of the most upsetting experiences of my life.

第三部分  阅读理解(第一节20小题，第二节5小题;每小题2分，满分50分)

第一节阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、 D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卷上将该项涂黑。

A

Of the several films Hirokazu has made about childhood and children, this one is the most modest, but no less pleasing for its delicate style and small setting. I Wish was originally called Miracle, and the change is for the better. The two-word title makes you want to know who’s wishing for what, while the single word sounds plain and self-praising. This wise and funny film works small miracles in describing such a moment when kids turn from the wishfulness of childhood into shaping the world for themselves.

The sweetly reflective hero, a sixth-grader named Koichi, starts out by wishing for a volcano to erupt. Not just any volcano, but the one that towers above his town, smoking heavily and giving off ash. An eruption would lead to a withdrawing, which would lead, at least in his mind, to a reunion with his father and kid brother, who’ve been living in Hakata while Koichi lives with his mother and retired grandparents in Kagoshima. The volcano, knowing nothing of this, refuses to erupt, but Koichi hears of another approach to realizing the desired miracle.

One of the pleasures of I Wish is watching how kids behave — how Koichi attacks his dinner, for example. Another pleasure is rediscovering how kids think. These kids can be logical and ever so tricky. But children’s thought processes can also be fancy. A boy wishes he could play baseball like one of baseball stars, who eats curry for breakfast; so he, too, starts eating curry for breakfast, instead of practicing on the field. Another boy tries to wish his dead dog, Marble, back to life. And what does Koichi finally wish for? I wish you’d see this delightful film to find out.

61. Why has the name of the film been changed from Miracle to I Wish?
