When I was 12, all I wanted was a signet(图章) ring. They were the "in" thing and it seemed every girl except me had one. On my 13th birthday, my Mum gave me a signet ring with my initials(姓名首字母) carved into it. I was in heaven.
What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn't being "replaced". We'd been burnt out in fires that swept through our area earlier that year and had lost everything—so most of the "new" stuff(东西) we got was really just to replace what we'd lost. But not my ring. My ring was new.
Then, only one month later, I lost it. I took it off before bed and it was missing in the morning. I was sad and searched everywhere for it. But it seemed to have disappeared. Eventually, I gave up and stopped looking for it. And two years later, we sold the house and moved away.
Years passed, and a couple of moves later, I was visiting my parents' when Mum told me that she had something for me. It wasn't my birthday, nor was it Easter or Christmas or any other gift-giving occasion. Mum noticed my questioning look. "You'll recognize this one," she said, smiling.
Then she handed me a small ring box. I took it from her and opened it to find my beautiful signet ring inside.
The family who had bought our house 13 years earlier had recently decided to do some redecorations, which included replacing the carpets. When they pulled the carpet up in my old bedroom, they found the ring. As it had my initials carved into it, they realized who owned the ring. They'd had it professionally cleaned up by a jeweler before sending it to my mother. And it still fits me.
1.The underlined word “in” in the first Paragraph probably means " ".
A.fashionable B.available C.practical D.renewable
2.When she got the ring back, the writer was about .
A.13 years old B.15 years old C.26 years old D.28 years old
3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A.The writer’s family moved several times.
B.The writer never stopped looking for her ring.
C.The writer’s ring was cleaned up by the new house owner.
D.The writer lost her ring in the morning when she took it off.
4.What would be the best title for the passage
A.My New Ring B.Lost and Found
C.Lost and Replaced D.An expensive Ring
C
Every scientist has to start somewhere. Many first determined they loved science in the experimented at home一building and designing new things. Here are some that spend their lives spreading their love of science.
Maria Christoforaki
Christoforaki is a high school student at the Lyceum of Gazi in Cireece. In June 2016, she was part of a team from her school that competed in the European CanSat Competition. This is a contest in which teams build models of satellites. The satellite has to be the size and shape of a soft drink can. Much creativity is required -and Christoforaki says that is the best part.
Kelly Knight
Knight is a forensic(法医的) scientist—someone who uses scientific techniques to help solve crimes. She’s a professor at George Mason University in Fairfax,Va. But that's not all she does. “I’m also a Zumba(尊巴舞) instructor and I have my motorcycle license,” she says. She’s still working on getting a motorcycle,though.
Sara MacSorley
MacSorley has a degree in science,who doesn’t work in a laboratory but is now the director of the Green Street Teaching and Learning Centre at Wesleyan University in Middletown, Coon. She spends her time promoting education. MacSorlcy still loves science. She’s now working on a colouring book about women in science,technology, engineering and maths.
Erin Winick
Winick was a student in mechanical engineering at the University of Florida in Gainesville. As an engineer,she also runs her own company, Sci Chic, making science and engineering-inspired jewellery. Her science creativity also goes beyond jewellery. "I love sewing and have made everything from a Ms. Frizzle costume to a galaxy-patterned dress,’’ she says. “I love making and wearing any space and science-inspired clothing."

D
"The Man with the Golden Arm" may sound like the name of some superhero in a comic book. But this name belongs to 78-year-old James Harrison—an Australian man who has donated blood almost every week, saving more than 2 million babies in the process.
Harrison told CNN, an American channel, about why he chooses to donate, even though it's not the most pleasurable experience: "Never once have I watched the needle go in my arm. I can't stand the sight of blood, and I can't stand pain."
An amazingly unique antibody(抗体) in Harrison's blood makes it a true lifesaver for babies who could be affected by rhesus disease.
The condition occurs during some pregnancies, when a woman who has rhesus-negative blood produces antibodies that destroy her babies' cells. This can happen when the baby has the same rhesus-positive blood as the father. Rhesus disease can cause health issues in babies. It can even result in death.
Harrison, blood helped physicians develop an injection called Anti-D in the 1960s, which prevents women who have rhesus-negative blood from developing the harmful antibodies while pregnant. After Harrison completes one of his routine donations, his blood can be used to create more vaccines(疫苗).
"I started donating in 1955, two days after I turned 18," Harrison said when he completed his 1,075th donation.
As CNN reported, every Anti-D vaccine created in Australia has something to do with a donation from Harrison, who holds the record for most blood donations in Australia.
"A number of mothers have come up to me and said, 'Thank you very much for what you've done, because I now have one, two, three healthy children', "Harrison said.
Harrison's own daughter, Tracey Mellowship, had been one of the 17 percent of women who need Anti-D during their pregnancy. The injection helped guarantee her second son would be born healthy.
"Dad had always donated—we knew that," Mellowship said. "But it didn't hit home until I was pregnant and knew the consequences."
(1).From the first two paragraphs, what can we infer about Harrison
A.He is humorous and smart.
B.He is brave and unselfish.
C.He is friendly but nervous.
D.He is optimistic but weak.
(2).What can we learn about the babies affected by rhesus disease
A.They have the same blood type as their mothers.
B.They develop the disease after being born.
C.They can't form Wood themselves.
D.They grow problematic cells.
(3).Harrison's blood can ________.
A.help patients develop Anti-D
B.help avoid the risk of rhesus disease
C.cure rhesus disease affected babies
D.stop babies from producing antibodies
(4).Before Mellowship was injected Anti-D, her family didn't ________.
A.understand the meaning of Harrison's act
B.expect she would have another healthy son
C.realize the high rate of potential rhesus disease
D.know Harrison held a record for donating blood

第二节 （满分25分）
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My granddaughter Elizabeth lives in Washington. When she was 12-year-old, she spent the summer visiting her father near Atlanta, Georgia. Elizabeth's school was to start in about three weeks, so it was decided that she could stop and visit Texas with us before returning to Washington just in time to start school.
Our visit would be rather short, and we would enjoy every moment that we could to share with her.
I couldn't imagine what the travel agent in Georgia was thinking when it scheduled 12-year-old Lizzy's flights. First, she was to fly from Atlanta to Houston William Hobby Airport, arriving about 9:00 p. m. Then she was to depart for San Antonio about 11:00 p. m. from Houston's George H.W. Bush Inter-Continental Airport. However, Bush is 25 miles across town from Houston Hobby Airport, and there was no ground transportation available between the two.
The lady who sat next to Liz on the plane learned of the situation. Sensing Liz's worry, she gave her a phone card and $10.00. When Elizabeth called us and explained her situation, we advised her to contact a police officer there at the terminal(航空终点站).
She did. The police officer put her in touch with Ms Joy Fears, a Continental gate agent. Initially, Ms Fears was going to put Elizabeth in a taxi to make the cross-town trip. Liz had $20. 00 that her dad had given her upon leaving Atlanta Hartsfield Airport, plus the $10.00 that her seat-mate had given her-enough for the taxi fare to Bush Airport. However, considering Liz's age and the late hour, Ms Fears decided to show her kindness by taking an enjoyable "do it yourself" approach.
First Ms Fears got a meal voucher(代金券) and got Lizzy fed. Then she put both Liz's luggage and our granddaughter in her private vehicle. She went so far as to personally deliver Liz to the Continental gate at Bush, and saw to it that she was properly checked in and on her way for the 55-minute flight from Houston to San Antonio.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
We feel very grateful to Liz's seat-mate and the Houston police officer.__________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

答案以及解析
第一部分 阅读理解
第一节
A
答案：1-3.BDA
解析：本文提供了游客去太平洋科学中心的一些参观指南,并鼓励游客为该中心的发展捐款。
1.细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的"The store is located upstairs in Building 3 right next to the laser Dome."可知,纪念品商店坐落于3号楼,故选B项。
2.细节理解题。根据第四段中的"Today, Pacific Science Center serves more than 1.3 million people a year and brings inquiry-based science education to classrooms and community events"可知,太平洋科学中心把科学教育带入课堂,故选D项。
3.目的意图题。根据最后一段的标题"Support Pacific Science Center"和最后一句"Visit pacificsciencecenter.org to find various ways you can support Pacific Science Center."可知,本段旨在鼓励人们为太平洋科学中心的发展捐款,故选A项。
B
答案：1.A; 2.D; 3.A; 4.B
解析：1.考查词义猜测。结合第一段第二句可知,好像除了作者以外每个女孩都有图章戒指,由此可知在当时佩戴图章戒指很“流行”。fashionable流行的,时兴的;available可得到的;practical适用的:renewable可更新的。故选A项。
2.考查简单计算。第一段提到作者在13岁时得到图章戒指;第三段提到图章戒指丢失两年后房屋被卖掉;第六段提到新住户在买完房子13年后装修房屋时意外发现图章戒指。综合上述内容可知,此时作者应该是28岁(13+2+13=28)。
3.考查细节理解。根据第三段可知,作者在15岁时搬了一次家,又依据第四段首句可知数年后, 作者又搬了两次家,故A项正确;B项与第三段倒数第二句不符;依据倒数第二段可知,清洗戒指的是“a jeweler”, 而不是房屋买家,故C项错误;D项与第三段第二句不符。
4.主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了作者13岁生曰的时候,母亲送给她一个当时颇为流行的图章戒指,但是后来不幸丢失了。十几年后,购买了作者家房子的人家准备装修时,发现了这枚戒指,并邮寄给了作者的母亲。作者的戒指失而复得。因此B符合主旨。
【长难句分析】What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn’t being “replaced”.使得这枚戒指更加特殊的原因是,这是唯一一件没有被更换的东西。该句为复合句。What引导主语从句,在从句中作主语;was之后的that引导表语从句,从句中that引导了定语从句,修饰前面的the only thing.
C
答案：1.A; 2.A; 3.B; 4.C
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第二段前两句可推知在学校时,Christoforaki开始热爱科学。
2.推理判断题。根据第三段中的“She’s still working on getting a motorcycle, though. ”可知Kelly Knight的爱好是摩托车。
3.推理判断题。根据第四段第一句中的“MacSorley has a degree in science, who doesn't work in a laboratory but is now the director of the Green Street Teaching and Learning Centre at Wesleyan University in Middletown, Coon. ”可知MacSorley被培养成了一名科学家。
4.推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Here are some that spend their lives spreading their love of science. ”可知文章中的四位女士都非常热爱科学。
D
答案：(1)-(4) BDBA
解析： (1).推理判断题。根据第一段中的who has donated blood almost every week, saving more than 2 million babies in the process可知,Harrison坚持每周献血，拯救了两百多万婴儿的生命，由此可以看出，他很无私。根据第二段中的Never once have I watched the needle go in my arm. I can't stand the sight of blood, and I can't stand pain.可知，Harrison既晕血又怕疼，但他还是克服恐惧献血，说明他很勇敢。
(2).事实细节题。根据第四段中...when a woman who has rhesus-negative blood produces antibodies that destroy her babies' cells可知，当溶血性疾病发生时,母亲血液中的抗体会进入胎儿体内破坏胎儿的细胞，导致胎儿出生后有些细胞有缺陷。
(3).事实细节题。根据第五段中的Harrison's blood helped physicians develop an injection called Anti-D in the 1960s, which prevents women who have rhesus-negative blood from developing the harmful antibodies while pregnant.可知，基于Harrison血液的注射剂可以防止孕妇产生影响胎儿的抗体，避免溶血性疾病的发生。
(4).推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容可知，Harrison的家人知道他一直在献血，但是直到他的女儿怀孕并需要注射Anti-D时，他的家人才清楚溶血性疾病可能带来的后果，从而理解了他献血的意义。
第二节
答案：CFAED
解析：本文介绍了在美国引起死亡和残疾的一个主要因素——中风。
1. C 根据空线前句“Every 45 seconds, someone in America has a stroke. ",可知C项(每3.1分钟就会有人死于中风。)是递进的关系,故C项符合题意。
2. F本段讲到中风是如何造成的。空线前句说到当给大脑供给氧气和营养的血管被凝块堵住或爆裂时会引起中风,而空线处是前句的结果.即当耶种情况发生时,大脑的一部分将得不到所需的血液和氧气。故F项正确。
3. A 根据段落首句“The American Stroke Association has identified several factors(因素) that increase the risk of a stroke. ”,可知本段谈论的是引起中风的因素,factors是关键词。故A项符合题意。
4. E 根据空线前句“You can’t control some of these, such as increasing age, family health history, race, and previous stroke. ”,可知此处谈论的是不可控的因素并且不能改变,同时根据空线后句“Factors resulting from lifestyle or environment ...”即可判断空线处 讲到可控因素是可以改变的。故E项符合题意。
5. D空线后句讲到每年会有60万人得中风,由此可见每年得中风的人数量很多,所以中风是随时随地可能发生的。故D项符合题意。

第一节
答案：
Dear Tom,
I'm very excited to know the news that you are the first in the badminton match held in school last Sunday. I show my congratulations sincerely. This is a good evidence to show what hard work you've devoted to practising and improving your skills. When you first learned to play badminton, you were at a loss about the basic skills and felt embarrassed. But it wasn't long before you caught up and became an excellent player. That you won the first prize shows your great determination and painstaking effort in practising badminton. I hope that one day we can have a game of badminton, so that I can learn from you.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
答案：
We feel very grateful to Liz's seat-mate and the Houston police officer. I especially want to show my appreciation to Joy Fears for seeing that our lovely Elizabeth got to us unharmed. I sent my thanks to Ms Fears, and my daughter contacted Continental Airlines with an "Atta-Girl" for her. My daughter also gave the Houston Police Department an "Atta-Boy" for the officer who assisted Liz that night.
There are many helpful folks who don't get recognition for their kindness. Doing good deeds for other people lets them know that they are important, and the assistance them provide helps people get through their lives in a more enjoyable way. In our family, if each person gets to cultivate his or her strengths, we can work together for the greater benefit of the family. So I would like the world to hear about the generous actions of Ms Joy Fears.

When I was 12, all I wanted was a signet(图章) ring. They were the "in" thing and it seemed every girl except me had one. On my 13th birthday, my Mum gave me a signet ring with my initials(姓名首字母) carved into it. I was in heaven.
What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn't being "replaced". We'd been burnt out in fires that swept through our area earlier that year and had lost everything—so most of the "new" stuff(东西) we got was really just to replace what we'd lost. But not my ring. My ring was new.
Then, only one month later, I lost it. I took it off before bed and it was missing in the morning. I was sad and searched everywhere for it. But it seemed to have disappeared. Eventually, I gave up and stopped looking for it. And two years later, we sold the house and moved away.
Years passed, and a couple of moves later, I was visiting my parents' when Mum told me that she had something for me. It wasn't my birthday, nor was it Easter or Christmas or any other gift-giving occasion. Mum noticed my questioning look. "You'll recognize this one," she said, smiling.
Then she handed me a small ring box. I took it from her and opened it to find my beautiful signet ring inside.

Every scientist has to start somewhere. Many first determined they loved science in the experimented at home一building and designing new things. Here are some that spend their lives spreading their love of science.
Maria Christoforaki
Christoforaki is a high school student at the Lyceum of Gazi in Cireece. In June 2016, she was part of a team from her school that competed in the European CanSat Competition. This is a contest in which teams build models of satellites. The satellite has to be the size and shape of a soft drink can. Much creativity is required -and Christoforaki says that is the best part.
Kelly Knight
Knight is a forensic(法医的) scientist—someone who uses scientific techniques to help solve crimes. She’s a professor at George Mason University in Fairfax,Va. But that's not all she does. “I’m also a Zumba(尊巴舞) instructor and I have my motorcycle license,” she says. She’s still working on getting a motorcycle,though.
Sara MacSorley
MacSorley has a degree in science,who doesn’t work in a laboratory but is now the director of the Green Street Teaching and Learning Centre at Wesleyan University in Middletown, Coon. She spends her time promoting education. MacSorlcy still loves science. She’s now working on a colouring book about women in science,technology, engineering and maths.

"The Man with the Golden Arm" may sound like the name of some superhero in a comic book. But this name belongs to 78-year-old James Harrison—an Australian man who has donated blood almost every week, saving more than 2 million babies in the process.
Harrison told CNN, an American channel, about why he chooses to donate, even though it's not the most pleasurable experience: "Never once have I watched the needle go in my arm. I can't stand the sight of blood, and I can't stand pain."
An amazingly unique antibody(抗体) in Harrison's blood makes it a true lifesaver for babies who could be affected by rhesus disease.
The condition occurs during some pregnancies, when a woman who has rhesus-negative blood produces antibodies that destroy her babies' cells. This can happen when the baby has the same rhesus-positive blood as the father. Rhesus disease can cause health issues in babies. It can even result in death.
Harrison, blood helped physicians develop an injection called Anti-D in the 1960s, which prevents women who have rhesus-negative blood from developing the harmful antibodies while pregnant. After Harrison completes one of his routine donations, his blood can be used to create more vaccines(疫苗).
"I started donating in 1955, two days after I turned 18," Harrison said when he completed his 1,075th donation.
As CNN reported, every Anti-D vaccine created in Australia has something to do with a donation from Harrison, who holds the record for most blood donations in Australia.
"A number of mothers have come up to me and said, 'Thank you very much for what you've done, because I now have one, two, three healthy children', "Harrison said.
Harrison's own daughter, Tracey Mellowship, had been one of the 17 percent of women who need Anti-D during their pregnancy. The injection helped guarantee her second son would be born healthy.
"Dad had always donated—we knew that," Mellowship said. "But it didn't hit home until I was pregnant and knew the consequences."
(1).From the first two paragraphs, what can we infer about Harrison
A.He is humorous and smart.
B.He is brave and unselfish.
C.He is friendly but nervous.
D.He is optimistic but weak.
(2).What can we learn about the babies affected by rhesus disease
A.They have the same blood type as their mothers.
B.They develop the disease after being born.
C.They can't form Wood themselves.
D.They grow problematic cells.
(3).Harrison's blood can ________.
A.help patients develop Anti-D
B.help avoid the risk of rhesus disease
C.cure rhesus disease affected babies
D.stop babies from producing antibodies
(4).Before Mellowship was injected Anti-D, her family didn't ________.
A.understand the meaning of Harrison's act
B.expect she would have another healthy son
C.realize the high rate of potential rhesus disease
D.know Harrison held a record for donating blood

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My granddaughter Elizabeth lives in Washington. When she was 12-year-old, she spent the summer visiting her father near Atlanta, Georgia. Elizabeth's school was to start in about three weeks, so it was decided that she could stop and visit Texas with us before returning to Washington just in time to start school.
Our visit would be rather short, and we would enjoy every moment that we could to share with her.
I couldn't imagine what the travel agent in Georgia was thinking when it scheduled 12-year-old Lizzy's flights. First, she was to fly from Atlanta to Houston William Hobby Airport, arriving about 9:00 p. m. Then she was to depart for San Antonio about 11:00 p. m. from Houston's George H.W. Bush Inter-Continental Airport. However, Bush is 25 miles across town from Houston Hobby Airport, and there was no ground transportation available between the two.
The lady who sat next to Liz on the plane learned of the situation. Sensing Liz's worry, she gave her a phone card and $10.00. When Elizabeth called us and explained her situation, we advised her to contact a police officer there at the terminal(航空终点站).
She did. The police officer put her in touch with Ms Joy Fears, a Continental gate agent. Initially, Ms Fears was going to put Elizabeth in a taxi to make the cross-town trip. Liz had $20. 00 that her dad had given her upon leaving Atlanta Hartsfield Airport, plus the $10.00 that her seat-mate had given her-enough for the taxi fare to Bush Airport. However, considering Liz's age and the late hour, Ms Fears decided to show her kindness by taking an enjoyable "do it yourself" approach.
First Ms Fears got a meal voucher(代金券) and got Lizzy fed. Then she put both Liz's luggage and our granddaughter in her private vehicle. She went so far as to personally deliver Liz to the Continental gate at Bush, and saw to it that she was properly checked in and on her way for the 55-minute flight from Houston to San Antonio.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
We feel very grateful to Liz's seat-mate and the Houston police officer.__________________________

答案以及解析
第一部分 阅读理解
第一节
A
答案：1-3.BDA
解析：本文提供了游客去太平洋科学中心的一些参观指南,并鼓励游客为该中心的发展捐款。
1.细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的"The store is located upstairs in Building 3 right next to the laser Dome."可知,纪念品商店坐落于3号楼,故选B项。
2.细节理解题。根据第四段中的"Today, Pacific Science Center serves more than 1.3 million people a year and brings inquiry-based science education to classrooms and community events"可知,太平洋科学中心把科学教育带入课堂,故选D项。
3.目的意图题。根据最后一段的标题"Support Pacific Science Center"和最后一句"Visit pacificsciencecenter.org to find various ways you can support Pacific Science Center."可知,本段旨在鼓励人们为太平洋科学中心的发展捐款,故选A项。
B
答案：1.A; 2.D; 3.A; 4.B
解析：1.考查词义猜测。结合第一段第二句可知,好像除了作者以外每个女孩都有图章戒指,由此可知在当时佩戴图章戒指很“流行”。fashionable流行的,时兴的;available可得到的;practical适用的:renewable可更新的。故选A项。
2.考查简单计算。第一段提到作者在13岁时得到图章戒指;第三段提到图章戒指丢失两年后房屋被卖掉;第六段提到新住户在买完房子13年后装修房屋时意外发现图章戒指。综合上述内容可知,此时作者应该是28岁(13+2+13=28)。
3.考查细节理解。根据第三段可知,作者在15岁时搬了一次家,又依据第四段首句可知数年后, 作者又搬了两次家,故A项正确;B项与第三段倒数第二句不符;依据倒数第二段可知,清洗戒指的是“a jeweler”, 而不是房屋买家,故C项错误;D项与第三段第二句不符。
4.主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了作者13岁生曰的时候,母亲送给她一个当时颇为流行的图章戒指,但是后来不幸丢失了。十几年后,购买了作者家房子的人家准备装修时,发现了这枚戒指,并邮寄给了作者的母亲。作者的戒指失而复得。因此B符合主旨。
【长难句分析】What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn’t being “replaced”.使得这枚戒指更加特殊的原因是,这是唯一一件没有被更换的东西。该句为复合句。What引导主语从句,在从句中作主语;was之后的that引导表语从句,从句中that引导了定语从句,修饰前面的the only thing.
C
答案：1.A; 2.A; 3.B; 4.C
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第二段前两句可推知在学校时,Christoforaki开始热爱科学。
2.推理判断题。根据第三段中的“She’s still working on getting a motorcycle, though. ”可知Kelly Knight的爱好是摩托车。
3.推理判断题。根据第四段第一句中的“MacSorley has a degree in science, who doesn't work in a laboratory but is now the director of the Green Street Teaching and Learning Centre at Wesleyan University in Middletown, Coon. ”可知MacSorley被培养成了一名科学家。
4.推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Here are some that spend their lives spreading their love of science. ”可知文章中的四位女士都非常热爱科学。
D
答案：(1)-(4) BDBA
解析： (1).推理判断题。根据第一段中的who has donated blood almost every week, saving more than 2 million babies in the process可知,Harrison坚持每周献血，拯救了两百多万婴儿的生命，由此可以看出，他很无私。根据第二段中的Never once have I watched the needle go in my arm. I can't stand the sight of blood, and I can't stand pain.可知，Harrison既晕血又怕疼，但他还是克服恐惧献血，说明他很勇敢。
(2).事实细节题。根据第四段中...when a woman who has rhesus-negative blood produces antibodies that destroy her babies' cells可知，当溶血性疾病发生时,母亲血液中的抗体会进入胎儿体内破坏胎儿的细胞，导致胎儿出生后有些细胞有缺陷。
(3).事实细节题。根据第五段中的Harrison's blood helped physicians develop an injection called Anti-D in the 1960s, which prevents women who have rhesus-negative blood from developing the harmful antibodies while pregnant.可知，基于Harrison血液的注射剂可以防止孕妇产生影响胎儿的抗体，避免溶血性疾病的发生。
(4).推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容可知，Harrison的家人知道他一直在献血，但是直到他的女儿怀孕并需要注射Anti-D时，他的家人才清楚溶血性疾病可能带来的后果，从而理解了他献血的意义。
第二节
答案：CFAED
解析：本文介绍了在美国引起死亡和残疾的一个主要因素——中风。
1. C 根据空线前句“Every 45 seconds, someone in America has a stroke. ",可知C项(每3.1分钟就会有人死于中风。)是递进的关系,故C项符合题意。
2. F本段讲到中风是如何造成的。空线前句说到当给大脑供给氧气和营养的血管被凝块堵住或爆裂时会引起中风,而空线处是前句的结果.即当耶种情况发生时,大脑的一部分将得不到所需的血液和氧气。故F项正确。
3. A 根据段落首句“The American Stroke Association has identified several factors(因素) that increase the risk of a stroke. ”,可知本段谈论的是引起中风的因素,factors是关键词。故A项符合题意。
4. E 根据空线前句“You can’t control some of these, such as increasing age, family health history, race, and previous stroke. ”,可知此处谈论的是不可控的因素并且不能改变,同时根据空线后句“Factors resulting from lifestyle or environment ...”即可判断空线处 讲到可控因素是可以改变的。故E项符合题意。
5. D空线后句讲到每年会有60万人得中风,由此可见每年得中风的人数量很多,所以中风是随时随地可能发生的。故D项符合题意。

答案：
Dear Tom,
I'm very excited to know the news that you are the first in the badminton match held in school last Sunday. I show my congratulations sincerely. This is a good evidence to show what hard work you've devoted to practising and improving your skills. When you first learned to play badminton, you were at a loss about the basic skills and felt embarrassed. But it wasn't long before you caught up and became an excellent player. That you won the first prize shows your great determination and painstaking effort in practising badminton. I hope that one day we can have a game of badminton, so that I can learn from you.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
答案：
We feel very grateful to Liz's seat-mate and the Houston police officer. I especially want to show my appreciation to Joy Fears for seeing that our lovely Elizabeth got to us unharmed. I sent my thanks to Ms Fears, and my daughter contacted Continental Airlines with an "Atta-Girl" for her. My daughter also gave the Houston Police Department an "Atta-Boy" for the officer who assisted Liz that night.
There are many helpful folks who don't get recognition for their kindness. Doing good deeds for other people lets them know that they are important, and the assistance them provide helps people get through their lives in a more enjoyable way. In our family, if each person gets to cultivate his or her strengths, we can work together for the greater benefit of the family. So I would like the world to hear about the generous actions of Ms Joy Fears.
