B
Would you believe that the first outstanding deaf teacher in America was a Frenchman? His name was Laurent Clerc. He became a friend of Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet and together they founded America's first school for the deaf.
Laurent Clerc was born in a small village near Lyons, France, on December 26, 1785. When he was one year old, he fell into a fire, losing both his hearing and his sense of smell.
At 12, Laurent entered the Royal Institution for the Deaf in Paris where he did well in his studies. After he graduated, the school asked him to stay on as an assistant teacher.
Meanwhile, in America, Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet was studying to be a minister. He was very concerned about the lack of educational opportunities for the deaf. Therefore, in 1815, Gallaudet sailed to London, England to seek ideas on how to teach deaf people. While he was there, he met a French educator of the deaf who invited him to go to Paris to spend three months learning at the Royal Institution for the Deaf, the school where Laurent Clerc was teaching. Gallaudet accepted the offer. The two worked and studied well together. When the time came for Gallaudet to return, he asked Clerc to come with him. Clerc accepted on one condition: that he would stay in America only a short time.
The two men set sail on June 18, 1816. The voyage across the Atlantic Ocean took 52 days; however, Clerc and Gallaudet put the time to good use. Clerc studied English, and Gallaudet studied sign language. They discussed the school for the deaf which they planned to open. On the long trip, they had many conversations about education and deafness. The year after they arrived, they founded a school for the deaf in Harford, Connecticut.
At the school, Clerc led a busy life. He taught signs to Principal Gallaudet; he taught the pupils; and he taught hearing men who came to the school to study deaf education.
In 1819, Clerc married Eliza Crocker Boardman, one of his pupils. They had six children. He retired from teaching in 1858. Although he had intended to return to France, he never did. He died on July 18, 1869 in the United States.

【解析】本文敘述了Laurent Clerc 的故事，當(dāng)他一歲時(shí)，他掉進(jìn)了火里，失去了聽覺 和嗅覺。12歲他進(jìn)入英皇聾啞學(xué)校的巴黎，他在那里學(xué)習(xí)得很好。之后他在 巴黎遇到了Gallaudet，于是兩個(gè)人在一起 研究討論對聾啞人的教育。他們在美國簡歷了第一所聾啞學(xué)校。
（1）C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)he was concerned about the lack of opportunities for deaf people in Amarica和he went to London to seek ideas on how to teach deaf people，與C項(xiàng)表達(dá)雖然不用，但意思基本一致。故選C．
（2）A推理判斷題。可以用排除法解答此題，B象不可能，Clerc懂法語、授予、還在旅途中學(xué)習(xí)英語；C項(xiàng)文中既沒有說明 為什么與Eliza結(jié)婚，更談不是當(dāng)時(shí)是否有“綠卡”D項(xiàng)沒有足夠的信息推斷掙錢多少。根據(jù)文中an excellent laeather,learned many different language ,succeeded in school等信息可以推斷出he was an intelligent man。
（3）B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Clerc studied English, and Gallaudet studied sign language. They discussed the school for the deaf which they planned to open. 他們談?wù)摿宿k學(xué)校的計(jì)劃，故選B。
（4）C邏輯順序題。根據(jù)第三段At 12, Laurent entered the Royal Institution for the Deaf in Paris where he did well in his studies.可知他去了巴黎的學(xué)校；第四段The two worked and studied well together. Laurent 遇到Gallaudet兩個(gè)人工作在一起；Clerc accepted on one condition: that he would stay in America only a short time. Clerc去了美國；最后一段In 1819, Clerc married Eliza Crocker Boardman, one of his pupils.可知他和Eliza Crocker Boardman結(jié)婚了，故選C。
（5）D主旨大意題.全文圍繞Clerc和他對美國聾兒教育的影響,所以D項(xiàng)正確,而A項(xiàng)面太窄,B項(xiàng)偏離主題,本文針對的不是Thomas Gallaudet,C項(xiàng)文中根本沒提到偏愛做一名教師.故選D。
