Task 2
Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45.
Sophia Fowler Gallaudet was the deaf woman who founded the first permanent(永久的) public school for the deaf in Hartford, Connecticut. She did not allow her deafness to prevent her from leading a full life. She was educated, raised a family, ran a busy household, and helped to found Gallaudet College.
Sophia Fowler was born deaf on March 20, 1798. At that time, there were no schools for the deaf in America. However, Sophia was smart. She learned many skills by watching the people around her. She learned to cook and sew, and became a modest, happy and charming young lady.
Sophia was nineteen years old when her parents learned that a school for the deaf had been founded in Hartford, Connecticut. She entered the school in 1817. While she was there, the principal(校长) of the school, Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet fell in love with her. They married in 1821. As Mrs. Gallaudet, she was eager to learn from every social situation. Through her contact with the many visitors to her home, she was actually able to continue her education.
Mr. Gallaudet died in 1851, leaving his wife to make a life without him. However, her eight children did not leave her without support. With the help of her grown children, she continued to keep house for those children that had not yet married.
In 1857, Mrs. Gallaudet's youngest son, Edward Miner Gallaudet, became principal of the Columbia Institution for the Deaf in Washington, D.C. He was only 20 years at that time, but his ambition was to establish a college for the deaf.
His mother shared his dream and work. She often met with members of Congress(国会议员) and other important men in order to gain support for her goals. Through them, she helped to obtain funds to found and maintain Gallaudet College.
During her last years, Mrs. Gallaudet spent the winters in Washington, D.C. and the rest of the years travelling and visiting her children and grandchildren. She died on May 13, 1877. Gallaudet has preserved her memory by naming Fowler Hall, which was originally a women's dormitory and is now part of the graduate school, in her honor.

B．although she was deaf, she still had a meaningful life
C．she fought for a full life against her deafness
D．her deafness forced her to lead a simple life

Travel Across Africa
For six hours we shot through the barren (荒芜的) landscape of the Karoo desert in South Africa. Just rocks and sand and baking sun. Knowing our journey was ending, Daniel and 1 just wanted to remember all we had seen and done. He used a camera. I used words. I had already finished three notebooks and was into the fourth, a beautiful leather notebook I&39;d bought in a market in Mozambique.＜br＞
Southern Africa was full of stories and visions. We were almost drunk on sensations. The roaring of the water at Victoria Falls, the impossible silence of the Okavango Delta in Botswana.＜br＞
And then the other things: dogs in the streets, whole families in Soweto living in one room, a kilometer from clean water.＜br＞
As we drove towards the setting sun, a quietness fell over us. The road was empty--we hadn&39;t seen another car for hours. And as I drove, something caught my eye, something moving close enough to touch them, to smell their hot breath. I didn&39;t know how long they had been there next to us.＜br＞
I shouted to Dan: "Look! but he was in a deep sleep, his camera lying useless by his feet."＜br＞
They raced the car for a few seconds, then disappeared far behind us, a memory of heroic forms in the red landscape.＜br＞
When Daniel woke up an hour later I told him what had happened.＜br＞
"Wild horses？ "he said. "Why didn&39;t you wake me up, Sophia？"＜br＞
"I tried. But they were gone after a few seconds."＜br＞
"Are you sure you didn&39;t dream it？"＜br＞
"You were the one who was sleeping! "＜br＞
"Typical," he said. "The best photos are the ones we never take."＜br＞
We checked into a dusty hotel and slept the sleep of the dead.
Daniel and Sophia drove slowly through the busy desert. 查看材料
