问题     At thirteen, I was diagnosed (诊断) with a kind of attention disorder. It make school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.
    In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs. Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.”
    She glanced down at me through he glasses, “You are no different from your classmates, young man.”
    I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.
    In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots, which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.
    Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class. Being made to learn like the ‘sighted” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was no different from others; I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?
    I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs. Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day——with an “A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words: “See what you can do when you keep trying?”
The author didn’t finish the reading in class because (          ).

选项 A、he was new to the class
B、he was tired of literature
C、he had an attention disorder
D、he wanted to take the task home

答案C

解析 细节题。根据第一段第一句中的“I was diagnosed (诊断) with a kind of attention disorder”及第二段中作者对 Smith 老师所说的’the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.”可知,作者没有按时完成阅读任务是因为他患有注意力障碍。这样C项符合。A项指的是他对于这个班级来说是新人。B项指的是他很厌倦文学。D项指的是他想把任务带回家做。因此答案选C项。
