糟糕的是，在家庭收入入不敷出时丈夫又失业了，没有收入，作者和丈夫绝望地

哭了起来。但是当一扇门关闭的时候，生活会为你开启另一扇门，最后作者的颈

又变穷了，我的颈部手术将免费。我丈夫收到了一个视频面试的电子邮件邀请，

一切都很顺利。他每小时的工资将比上一份工作多3美元。真是坐过山车啊！）”

可知，作者从她的经历中明白了当一扇门关闭的时候，生活会为你开启另一扇门

的道理。故选C项。］

hearingloss,andpeoplewithemotionaldisabilities."Oneofthebiggestbarriersfor

travelerswithphysicaldisabilitiesisfindinginformationaboutaccessibletrips,whichis

agapWheeltheWorldaimstoclose,?saysSilberstein.”可知，西尔伯斯坦说，在

未来，他们计划为听力丧失的人和有情感障碍的人提供旅行服务。对身体残疾的

旅行者来说，最大的障碍之一是寻找关于他们也可以去的旅行的信息，而他的网

站旨在（帮助残疾人）克服这一障碍。由此可以看出西尔伯斯坦是个体贴（thoughtful）
