Hank Viscardi was born without legs. He had—not legs but stumps(残肢) that could be fitted with a kind of special boots, People stared at him with cruel interest. Children laughed at him and called him ‘Ape Man’ (猿人) because his arms practically dragged on the ground.
Hank went to school like other boys. His grades were good and he needed only eight years to finish his schooling instead of the usual twelve. After graduating from school, he worked his way through college. He swept floors, waited on table, or worked in one of the college offices. During all this busy life, he had been moving around on his stumps. But one day the doctor told him even the stumps were not going to last much longer. He would soon have to use a wheel chair.
Hank felt himself get cold all over. However, the doctor said there was a chance that he could be fitted with artificial legs(假腿). Finally a leg maker was found and the day came when Hank stood up before the mirror. For the first time he saw himself as he has always wanted to be—a full five feet eight inches tall. By this time he was already 26 years old.
Hank had to learn to use his new legs. Again and again he marched the length of the room , and marched back again. There were times when he fell down on the floor, but he pulled himself up and went back to the endless marching. He went out on the street. He climbed stairs and learned to dance. He built a boat and learned to sail it.
When World War II came , he talked the Red Cross into giving him a job. He took the regular training. He marched and drilled along with the other soldiers. Few knew that he was legless. This was the true story of Hank Viscardi, a man without legs.

(答案→)C 解析：本文是一篇记叙文，叙述了身残志不残的Hank的事迹。身为一名残疾人的Hank ，凭借自己的毅力做到了与正常人一样工作学习和生活，具有很强的教育意义。【小题1】C 细节理解题。从第一段最后一句话“Children laughed at him and called him ‘Ape Man’ (猿人) because his arms practically dragged on the ground.”可知“drag”在此意思为“拖在地上”，孩子们嘲笑他因为他的手臂拖在地上，C为正确选项。【小题2】A推理判断题。从文章可知Hank因为残疾从小接受到人们好奇的目光和孩子们的嘲笑，所以内心应该是一直渴望像个正常人一样，而且文章第三段“ For the first time he saw himself as he has always wanted to be—a full five feet eight inches tall.”也证实了5英尺8英寸是正常人的平均高度。，所以A为正确答案。【小题3】A推理判断题。从文章最后一段“ He took the regular training. He marched and drilled along with the other soldiers. Few knew that he was legless.”可知他应该是和别人做一样的事情，所以正确选项是A【小题4】B推理判断题。从整篇文章的叙述可知Hank和别人一样学习工作甚至在部队行军操练，从来没把自己看做一个不同于别人的人，而且其余三个选项文章中没有涉及，所以正确选项是B。
