语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。Jake Olson双目失明，但这并没有阻止他对运动的热爱。他不仅是高中和大学橄榄球队的队员，并且他还是一位励志演讲人。

1．A.Unless B．Though

C．Only if D．Now that

详细分析：选B根据下文的“it was controlled through treatments, it reappeared ...”可知，此处指尽管(Though)经过治疗，癌症被控制住了，但是它还是复发了，并导致(led to) Jake Olson失去了他的右眼。主从句之间存在让步关系，故选Though。

2．A.backed off B．held back

C．broke down D．led to

详细分析：选D参见上题解+析。back off“退缩，退却”；hold back“抑制，阻止”；break down“出故障，崩溃”。

3．A.forgotten B．quitted

C．realized D．ignored

详细分析：选C但是，在为他最喜欢的橄榄球队加油多年之后，Jake实现(realized)了那个不可能的梦想。下文中的“Jake's dream came true”亦是提示。

C．deafness D．innocence
