71.故事讲述了Louis Braille深夜为盲人研究阅读文字的情形，所以本题答案应是D。

72.Braille，放下笔用手摸是看一下自己能否辨认出自己所写的，检查是否科学，具有可辨认性，由此来看答案为B

73.另一个男孩说“You’d better…get some rest”说明答案为D。

74.“He knew his system would work despite what other thought”说明其他人对他的工作并不信任，所以答案应是C。

75.从“Only one boy was still awake”说明其他人也是boys，再从Gauthier提醒Braille“The teacher will be angry if you fall asleep in class.”可以判断两人很可能是同学，即C。
