B
At the age of 14, James Harrison had a major chest operation and he required 13 units (3.4 gallons) of blood afterwards. The blood donations saved his life, and he decided that once he turned 18, he would begin donating blood as regularly as he could.
More than 60 years and almost 1,200 donations later, Harrison, whose blood contains an antibody (抗体) that has saved the lives of 2.4 million babies from miscarriages (流产), retired as a blood donor on May 11. Harrison’s blood is valuable because he naturally produces Rh-negative blood, which contains Rh-positive antibodies. His blood has been used to create anti-D in Australia since 1967.
“Every bottle of anti-D ever made in Australia has James in it,” Robyn Barlow, the Rh program director told the Sydney Morning Herald. “It’s an amazing thing. He has saved millions of babies. I cry just thinking about it.” Since then, Harrison has donated between 500 and 800 milliliters of blood almost every week. “I’d keep going if they let me,” Harrison told the Herald. His doctors said it was time to sto
p the donations. They had already extended the age limit for blood donations for him, and they’re cutting him off now to protect his health.
Harrison’s retirement is a blow to the Rh treatment program in Australia. Only 160 donors support the program, and finding new donors has proven to be difficult. But Harrison’s retirement from giving blood doesn’t mean he’s completely out of the game. Scientists are collecting and cataloging his DNA to create a library of antibodies and white blood cells that could be the future of the anti-D program in Australia.
4. Why did James Harrison decide to donate blood as regularly as he could?
A. Because he wanted to be a celebrity.
B. Because he was saved by the blood donations when he was young.
C. Because his blood is valuable.
D. Because the Rh treatment program in Australia need him.
5. What can we learn from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?
A. Robyn Barlow was sad because millions of babies suffer from blood disease.
B. Robyn Barlow was worried because Harrison may die of losing too much blood.
C. Robyn Barlow was moved by Harrison’s donations.
D. Robyn Barlow was frightened by Harrison’s crazy behavior.
6. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Harrison’s retirement will not affect the Rh program.
B. After Harrison’s retirement, the Rh program will fail.
C. Harrison’s influence to the Rh program will still exist after his retirement.
D. A library has been built for the study of Harrison’s DNA .
7. Which word can best describe Harrison?
A. Patient.
B. Diligent.
C. Talented.
D. Devoted.
【答案】4. B    5. C    6. C 7. D
【解析】
【分析】
本文为记叙文。文章主要叙述Harrison因别人的献血挽救了自己的生命，因此决定18岁以后自己也参与献血。60年里他献血近1200次，他自然产生RH阴性血，其中含有RH阳性抗体，拯救了数百万婴儿。他的献血也促进了未来的澳大利亚抗D计划。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。第一段“At the age of 14, James Harrison had a major chest operation and he required 13 units (3.4 gallons) of blood afterwards. The blood donations saved his life, and he decided that once h
e turned 18, he would begin donating blood as regularly as he could.” 14岁时，詹姆斯·哈里森做了一次大的胸部手术，手术后他需要13个加仑的血液。有人献血挽救了他的生命，于是他决定一旦年满18岁，就开始尽可能地定期献血。由此可推出，詹姆斯·哈里森决定尽可能地定期献血是因为他小的时有人献血挽救了他。故选B。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线部分的上句“Every bottle of anti-D ever made in Australia has James in it,” Robyn Barlow, the Rh program director told the Sydney Morning Herald. “It’s an amazing thing. He has saved millions ” 罗宾说“澳大利亚生产的每一瓶抗-D药物都含有詹姆斯的捐献，”Rh项目主管Robyn Barlow说，“这是一件了不起的事情。他救了数百万婴儿”。故划线句子“I cry just thinking about it”是说罗宾•巴洛为詹姆斯的献血而感动。分析选项可知C项（哈里森的捐款感动了罗宾·巴洛）符合题意，故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“They had already extended the age limit for blood donations for him, and they’re cutting him off now to protect his health.”可知，的医生说应该让詹姆斯·哈里森停止献血了。他们已经延长了他献血的年龄限制，现在为了保护他的健康，他们正在切断他的血液供应。最后一
段“Harrison’s retirement is a blow to the Rh treatment program in Australia. Only 160 donors support the program, and finding new donors has proven to be difficult. But Harrison’s retirement from giving blood doesn’t mean he’s completely out of the game. Scientists are collecting and cataloging his DNA to create a library of antibodies and white blood cells that could be the future of the anti-D program in Australia.” 詹姆斯·哈里森退休对澳大利亚的Rh计划是一个打击。只有160名捐赠者支持这项计划，到新的献血者是很困难的。但詹姆斯•哈里森退出献血并不意味着他完全退出了比赛。科学家们正在收集和编目他的DNA，以建立一个抗体和白细胞库，这可能是澳大利亚抗D计划的未来。由此可推断出詹姆斯•哈里森退出这个项目，但却促进了科学家收集和编目他的DNA，将要建立一个抗D和白细胞库。由此可推断出哈里森退休后对Rh项目还有影响。分析选项可知C项（哈里森退休后对Rh 项目的影响仍然存在）符合题意，故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。本文主要叙述是Harrison因别人的献血挽救了自己的生命，因此决定18岁以后自己也参与献血。60年里他献血近1200次，他自然产生RH阴性血，其中含有RH阳性抗体，拯救了数百万婴儿。他的献血精神就是一种奉献精神，挽救了许多人，更感动了许多。文章中献血（即对他人的奉献精神）一词，贯穿全文。分析选项A. Patient.耐心的；B. Diligent. 勤奋的；C. Talented. 天才的；D. Devoted.奉献精神的。故选D。
【点睛】在阅读中我们经常会考查猜测词句题。事实上，阅读材料中的每个词与它前后的词语或句子甚至段落都有联系。运用逻辑推理猜测词句是使用最广考查最多也最易失分的猜词方式，这要求考生具备整合分散、复杂信息的能力，充分利用上下文（各种已知信息）并结
