Our listener question this week comes from Abdullahi Farah, who wants to know about the life and work of Doctor Benjamin Carson.
Doctor Carson is an internationally recognized doctor at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland. He has been the director of Pediatric Neurosurgery at the hospital for twenty-five years. At the age of thirty-three, he became one of the youngest doctors in the United States to hold that position. And he was the first African-American to have that position at Johns Hopkins Hospital.
Ben Carson is known for his work as a brain surgeon for children. For example, in nineteen eighty-seven, he led a team of seventy doctors and nurses in an operation to separate two babies joined at the head. Earlier attempts by other surgeons on other babies had failed. Doctor Carson successfully performed the operation. Both babies were able to survive independently.
Doctor Carson has written four books. His first book, "Gifted Hands," tells the story of his life. Benjamin Carson was born in nineteen fifty-one in Detroit, Michigan.
As a boy, Ben was not a good student. In fact, he was the worst in his class. When his mother learned of his failing grades she asked her sons to read two library books every week. She limited the amount of time they watched television. And she told them to respect every person.
Ben Carson soon became the top student in his class. He went on to study at Yale University, one of the best universities in the country, and later to medical school at the University of Michigan.
Doctor Carson has received many awards and honors. Last year he received the nation's highest civilian honor. Former President George W. Bush presented Benjamin Carson with the Presidential Medal of Freedom at a ceremony at the White House.

科目:高中英语 来源:2012年新课标版高中英语选修七 Unit5练习卷(解析版) 题型:阅读理解
Down-to-earth means being honest, open, and easy to deal with. It is a pleasure to find someone who is down-to-earth. A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to. He or she accepts others as equals. A down-to-earth person may be an important member of society, of course, but they do not let their importance go to their heads, and they do not consider themselves to be better than others who are less important. Someone who is filled with self-importance and pride, often without cause, is said to have his nose in the air. There is no way a person with his nose in the air can be down-to-earth.
Americans use another expression that is similar in some way to down-to-earth. The expression is both feet on the ground. Someone with both feet on the ground is a person with a good understanding of reality. He has what is called common sense. He may have dreams but he does not allow them to block his knowledge of what is real. The opposite kind of person is one who has his head in the clouds. A man with his head in the clouds is a dreamer whose mind is not in the world. Sometimes such a dreamer can be brought back to reality; sharp words from the teacher, for example, can usually get a daydreaming student to put both feet back on the ground.
The person who is down-to-earth usually has both feet on the ground. But the opposite is not always true. Someone with both feet on the ground may not be as open and easy to deal with as someone who is down-to-earth. When we have both our feet firmly on the ground, we are realistic and we act honestly and openly toward others, and our lives are like the ground below us, solid and strong.
1.If a person has his nose in the air, he ____.
A.is down to the earth |
B.is easy to deal with |
C.always thinks he is more important than others |
D.is confident |
2.If a person has both feet on the ground, he ____.
A.is in touch with reality, and doesn’t have any dreams |
B.has some dreams but he is realistic |
C.is honest, open and easy to deal with |
D.is honest, open but hard to deal with |
3.From the second paragraph, we know that sharp words from a teacher can usually ________.
A.help a student get down to the earth |
B.wake a student up |
C.help a daydreaming student come down to the ground |
D.help a daydreaming student to become more realistic |
4.The underlined sentence “But the opposite is not always true.” most probably means that ______.
A.the person who has his nose in the air is not true |
B.a man with his head in the clouds is often not intelligent |
C.the opposite direction is always wrong |
D.a person who has both feet on the ground may not be down-to-earth |
5.From the passage, we can infer the person who is _______ is the most popular kind of person.
A.down-to-earth |
B.standing on the ground |
C.with his nose in the air |
D.with his head in the clouds |
