22.D.細節理解題.根據第三段第一句"The activity was hosted by the Jazz and photographer Jon Diaz's‘Anything Can Be'project,which provides support and hope to families like the Gibsons."可知,這個"什么都可以"計劃就是給Gibson一樣的家庭提供支持和希望.故選D.
23.C.推理判斷題.根據文章最后一段"When he was just over one year old,he would sit with my husband,Josh,watching games.He started insisting on shooting hoops(投籃)for an hour each night before bedtime when he was just 15 months old."可知JP Gibson在一歲多的時候就喜歡和父親看籃球,只有十五個月的時候就開始投籃,故選C.
