There lives an old man in a small town. He is blind, so he can't see anything at all. But he always carries a lamp with him when he goes out at night.
One night, after having dinner outside, he meets a group of young men on his way back home. When they see the old man is blind but still carrying a lit lamp in his hand, they start laughing and making fun of him.
"Hey, old man. You can't see anything. Why do you carry a lamp?" the shortest young man asks.
The blind man stops and turns toward the sound, saying, "Glad to meet you, my friends! I can't see, but this lamp isn't for me. It is for people like you. It helps you see me clearly, so you don't accidentally run into me."
The young man's face soon turns red. Now, they all feel very bad for just making fun of the old man.

一位盲人虽然看不见,但是他出门还是会带着一盏灯。有一天,他在回家的路上遇到了一群嘲笑他的年轻人,他告诉他们,提灯是为了让他们看见他,避免撞上他,这些年轻人听了都为之前的行为感到非常羞愧。
1. D 词义猜测题。根据后文理解可知,老人什么也看不见,说明他失明了。此处形容词blind是"瞎的,失明的"的意思。
2. A 细节理解题。根据第二段中的they start laughing and making fun of him可知,他们大笑起来并且取笑他。
3. B 推理判断题。根据第四段中的"It helps you see me clearly, so you don't accidentally run into me."可知,灯能帮助年轻人清楚地看到他,所以他们就不会不小心撞到他,他提灯的目的是告诉别人他所在的位置。
4. A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的"But he always carries a lamp with him when he goes out at night."可知,老人夜晚出去时,总是随身带着一盏灯。
5. C 标题概括题。通读全文内容可知,一位盲人总是提着一盏灯出门,他其实并不是为了自己,而是为了他人能够看清他从而不会撞上他,所以盲人的灯其实是在为他人照路,故C项为最佳标题。
