阅读理解 People who have lost the ability to understand or use words due to brain damage are called aphasics(失语症患者).Such patients can be extremely good at something else.From the changing expressions on speakers’ faces and the tones of their voices,they can tell lies from truths.Doctors studying the human brain have given a number of examples of this amazing power of aphasics.Some have even compared this power to that of a dog with an ability to find out the drugs hidden in the baggage.Recently,scientists carried out tests to see if all that was said about aphasics was true.THEY STUDIED A MIXED GROUP OF PEOPLE.Some were normal;others were aphasics.It was proved that the aphasics were far ahead of the normal people in recognizing false speeches—in most cases,the normal people were fooled by words,but the aphasics were not.Some years ago,Dr.Oliver Sacks wrote in his book about his experiences with aphasics.He mentioned a particular case in a hospital.Some aphasics were watching the president giving a speech on TV.Since the president had been an actor earlier,making a good speech was no problem for him.He was trying to put his feelings into every word of his speech.But his way of speaking had the opposite effect on the patients.They didn’t seem to believe him.Instead,they burst into laughter.The aphasics knew that the president did not mean a word of what he was saying.He was lying!Many doctors see aphasics as people who are not completely normal because they lack the ability to understand words.However,according to Dr.Sacks,they are more gifted than normal people.Normal people may get carried away by words.Aphasics seem to understand human expressions better,though they cannot understand words.1.What is so surprising about aphasics?A.They can fool other people.B.They can find out the hidden drugs.C.They can understand language better.D.They can tell whether people are lying.2.How did the scientists study aphasics?A.By asking them to watch TV together.B.By organizing them into acting groups.C.By comparing them with normal people.D.By giving them chances to speak on TV.3.What do we learn from this text?A.What one says reflects how one feels.B.Aphasics have richer feelings than others.C.Normal people often tell lies in their speeches.D.People poor at one thing can be good at another.

DCD解析1.这是一道细节题。根据第一段中的“From the changing expressions on speakers’ faces and the tones of their voices,they can tell lies from truths.”可判断出失语症患者最令人吃惊的是他们能搞清楚人们是否说谎。2.这是一道细节题。根据第三段中的“Recently,scientists carried out tests to see if all that was said about aphasics was true. They studied a mixed group of people. Some were normal; others were aphasics.”可判断出科学家通过把失语症患者与正常人进行比较的办法对他们进行研究。3.这是一道推断题。短文的第一段“People who have lost the ability to understand or use words due to brain damage are called aphasics. Such patients can be extremely good at something else.”和第三段“Recently,scientists carried out tests to see if all that was said about aphasics was true. They studied a mixed group of people. Some were normal; others were aphasics.”是这篇短文的主题句。失语症患者虽然由于大脑损伤而失去了理解和使用语言的能力，但他们能够根据说话人的面部表情是说话的语调区分出他们说的是谎话还是真话。由此可推断出在某个方面能力弱的人可能在其他方面能力强。
