安德鲁的字母板
After a Saturday morning on my son Andrew’s 15th birthday, I took him to a shoe shop near our home to get a pair of shoes. 1.
“Size 41 of those black shoes, please,” I told the two sales assistants(售货员)when we arrived.
Andrew put feet into the shoes with no protest or head banging (signs of sadness we saw in the past). A perfect fit. We boxed them up and paid, and I thanked the sales assistants.
As we headed for the door, I said, “2.
“Happy birthday!” the sales assistants replied. “Have fun!”
What comes next only happens when you act on intuition(凭直觉), when the voice inside tells you to do things differently. Instead of having Andrew point to the “thank you” symbol on the card, I held up his letter board.
3.
Andrew also uses a text-to-voice app that makes others know his needs and wants, again through words with picture symbols. These tools offer him the simplest and quickest way to communicate. 4.
Years ago, we discovered that Andrew could communicate. It’s a simple but thoughtful tool. We have fixed a letter board to the back of his picture card to spare us the trouble of carrying quite a few cards and boards.
We came to realize that Andrew would not use the letter board on his own. We had to show it to him. As his parents, we need to remember to offer it to Andrew, to give him time to spell out what he wants to say and to respect his wishes if he pushes it away.

After a Saturday morning on my son Andrew’s 15th birthday, I took him to a shoe shop near our home to get a pair of shoes. 1.
C
And we timed the trip to arrive right when the shop opened. Andrew is non-speaking autistic(患孤独症的). He prefers to go shopping when it’s not busy.“Size 41 of those black shoes, please,” I told the two sales assistants(售货员)when we arrived.
Andrew put feet into the shoes with no protest or head banging (signs of sadness we saw in the past). A perfect fit. We boxed them up and paid, and I thanked the sales assistants.

B
Fifteen! We have got our new shoes and now we’re off to celebrate with family.”“Happy birthday!” the sales assistants replied. “Have fun!”
What comes next only happens when you act on intuition(凭直觉), when the voice inside tells you to do things differently. Instead of having Andrew point to the “thank you” symbol on the card, I held up his letter board.

D
Andrew uses it to communicate. It includes pictures that match his most important and most used words: people, places, food, greetings and different activities. Over the years, friends, cousins and classmates have studied the pictures and the strips at the top of the card that include even more “symbols” of Andrew’s life.Andrew also uses a text-to-voice app that makes others know his needs and wants, again through words with picture symbols. These tools offer him the simplest and quickest way to communicate. 4.

But it gives him an opportunity(机会)to share far more of who he is than can be described by pictures and words.(素材来源：Reader’s Digest)

解析
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文类的七选五阅读题，解题核心是依托上下文的语义呼应、指代关系和逻辑关联词匹配选项。首先通读全文理清故事主线：作者在患孤独症的儿子Andrew15岁生日当天带他去买鞋，过程中引出Andrew用来辅助沟通的字母板等工具的相关介绍。之后逐空定位线索：
1. 第一空前后分别提到“带Andrew去鞋店买鞋”“特意卡着店铺开门的时间到店，进店后直接指定要41码的黑鞋”，能推断出他们提前明确了想要的鞋的参数，对应匹配选项；
2. 第二空后文紧接着提到“十五岁！买完鞋要和家人庆祝”，后续售货员还回应了“生日快乐”，可知空处要点明当天是Andrew的生日；
3. 第三空后文反复提到“它用来沟通、卡片上的图片和符号”，可知空处要引出他们常年随身携带的沟通卡片；
4. 第四空前文说普通沟通工具给Andrew提供了简便快捷的沟通方式，后文转而引出字母板的独特作用，此处需要转折句说明普通工具的局限性，完成内容过渡；
5. 第五空后文用But转折，点明字母板能给Andrew更多展示自我的机会，可知空处要先说明字母板的使用劣势，形成“虽有不便但价值很高”的转折逻辑。
【解析】
1. 空处前句说明作者带Andrew去鞋店买鞋，后文提到他们到店后直接向售货员指定鞋的尺码款式，说明他们提前明确知道Andrew想要的鞋的具体样式和尺码，对应选项C：We knew the exact style and size he wanted. 衔接前后语义通顺。
2. 空处后文提到“十五岁！我们买到新鞋现在要和家人一起庆祝”，紧接着售货员回应“生日快乐”，空处需要点明当天是Andrew的生日，对应选项B：It’s Andrew’s birthday today. 前后信息完全呼应。
3. 空处后文的代词it指代空处提到的物品，后文介绍卡片上的图片、符号都是Andrew常用的沟通内容，对应选项D：For ten years, we have carried around a card. 引出后文介绍的沟通卡片，衔接自然。
4. 空处前句提到带图卡片、文本转语音APP这类工具给Andrew提供了最简单快捷的沟通方式，后文转而引出字母板的作用，此处用转折句说明普通工具的局限性，对应选项F：But they only work for specific objects, activities and words. 其中they指代前文的These tools，逻辑转折合理。
5. 空处后句用But转折，说明字母板能让Andrew表达出远超普通图片文字的自我内容，空处先说明字母板的使用门槛，对应选项E：Using the letter board needs much time for Andrew. 形成“使用耗时但价值很高”的转折逻辑，符合语境。
