When Ms. Kern approached Open Style Lab, she was looking for a coat that would be easy to put on with the limitations of a weaker body. Her team came up with a design with a circular rod (杆) that runs through the collar and allows Ms. K
12、ern to swing the coat across her back with one hand.“The idea of having a coat that sees the parts that make me as just parts and not as a problem that I need to solve was really liberating in an identity sense,” Ms. Kern said. “Because generally, when you have a different body, you dont really see
13、yourself.”“I think the challenges the students faced throughout the course had a lot to do with the exchange of ideas,” Ms. Jun said. “They were able to understand that no two people with a disability are alike.

16、th aging and universal design,” said Grace Jun, the director of the program. “We need to see it as part of our life cycle. 本句指“残疾与老化和通用设计有联系”,该项目的负责人Grace Jun说。“我们需要把它看作是我们生命周期的一部分”。为了避免重复,我们常常把上文提过的事用代词来代替。本句中上文说残疾是与老化及通用设计有关,所以下文提到时便用it 来替代它,因此选B项。2B细节理解题。根据第六段前两句“I think the challenges the studen
17、ts faced throughout the course had a lot to do with the exchange of ideas,” Ms. Jun said. “They were able to understand that no two people with a disability are alike.可知,Jun女士说:“我认为学生在整个课程中所面临的挑战与思想交流有很大关系。”“他们能够理解,没有两个残疾的人是一样的”。由此可知,学生面临的挑战就是交流问题。分析选项可知B项符合题意。3D主旨大意题。通读本文可知,本文介绍帕森斯设计学院在新学校开设了一门课程,在
18、春季学期创造出符合顾客独特要求的服装。文中以给Kern女士设计衣服为例,说明设计的衣服要适合具体的残疾人,因为每个残疾人都是不同的(They were able to understand that no two people with a disability are alike. Being able to design uniquely means you have to have a collaborative (合作) process.)。所以要设计出独一无二的实用的衣服。本文中多处出现设计衣服(designs)。故选D项。B(2018年高考北京卷)My First Marathon
