He remembered everything he had read.

To read more quickly, he read the left page with his left eye and the right page with his right eye. By reading the two pages at the same time, (61)看完一本书花他不到一小时的时间。By the age of 30, he had memorized around 12,000 books.

Laurence Kim Peek生来就是一个不寻常的人，他的大脑不是以寻常的方式连接在一起的。他的记忆力惊人，过目不忘。后来他遇到了一个好莱坞的编剧，这个编剧对他留下了深刻的印象，根据他的故事，创作了《雨人》，而这部电影也改变了Peek的生活。 【41题详解】

take和spend都可以表示“花费”，他们用于不同的句型，take的句型是：It takes sb.+一段时间+to do sth.花费某人一段时间做某事；spend的句型是(sb) spend+一段时间+doing sth. 根据文意可知，短文使用的是一It took him less than an hour to read a book. /It took him less than 般过去时态，故翻译句子时应用过去时。答案为：an hour to finish reading a book. /He spent less than an hour reading a book 【42题详解】

before可以作连词或者介词，原文中before是介词，后面跟名词构成短语。题目要求改为复合句，故可用before引导时间状语从句，从句中主语为he；使用一般过去时，was four (years old)，主句不变。 【43题详解】

This是一个代词，指代上文内容，找到上句话即可知答案，The movie Rain Man won an Oscar for Best Picture in 1988. 意为“《雨人》这部电影在1988年获得奥斯卡最佳影片奖。”

【44题详解】

got used to doing…习惯于某事；the center中心；of…的；attention关注，注意。故这句话意为：他习惯了成为关注的焦点/中心。 【45题详解】

这篇短文讲述了Laurence Kim Peek不平凡的一生，短文最后一段是对整篇文章内容的概括，这一段的第一句话Peek was not only an amazing man but also a real Rain Man.“Peek不仅是一个了不起的人，而且是一个真正的雨人”，作为文章的中心句比较合适。
