点评 完形填空是考查英语语言的应用能力．解题时，要着眼全篇，注意上下文的联系和语境．对于故事类的文章，情节性较强，在选择时，更多的要考虑文章作者的叙述方法，站在作者的立场，身临其境．这样才能作出最符合作者原意的选项，切不可拘泥于语言点本身，不顾语境．

12．Measles （麻疹），which once killed 450 children each year and disabled even more，was nearly wiped out in the United States 14 years ago by the universal use of the MMR vaccine （疫苗）．But the disease is making a comeback，caused by a growing anti-vaccine movement and misinformation that is spreading quickly．Already this year，115 measles cases have been reported in the USA，compared with 189 for all of last year．
The numbers might sound small，but they are the leading edge of a dangerous trend．When vaccination rates are very high，as they still are in the nation as a whole，everyone is protected．This is called"herd immunity"，which protects the people who get hurt easily，including those who can't be vaccinated for medical reasons，babies too young to get vaccinated and people on whom the vaccine doesn't work．
But herd immunity works only when nearly the whole herd joins in．When some refuse vaccination and seek a free ride，immunity breaks down and everyone is in even bigger danger．
That's exactly what is happening in small neighborhoods around the country from Orange County，California，where 22 measles cases were reported this month，to Brooklyn，N．Y．，where a 17-year-old caused an outbreak last year．
The resistance to vaccine has continued for decades，and it is driven by a real but very small risk．Those who refuse to take that risk selfishly make others suffer．
Making things worse are state laws that make it too easy to opt out （决定不参加） of what are supposed to be required vaccines for all children entering kindergarten．Seventeen states allow parents to get an exemption （豁免），sometimes just by signing a paper saying they personally object to a vaccine．
Now，several states are moving to tighten laws by adding new regulations for opting out．But no one does enough to limit exemptions．
Parents ought to be able to opt out only for limited medical or religious reasons．But personal opinions？Not good enough．Everyone enjoys the life-saving benefits vaccines provide，but they'll exist only as long as everyone shares in the risks．
 
32．The first two paragraphs suggest thatA
A．a small number of measles cases can start a dangerous trend
B．the outbreak of measles attracts the public attention
C．anti-vaccine movement has its medical reasons
D．information about measles spreads quickly
33．Herd immunity works well whenB
A．exemptions are allowed
B．the whole neighborhood is involved in
C．several vaccines are used together
D．new regulations are added to the state laws
34．What is the main reason for the comeback of measles？A
A．The vaccine opt-outs of some people．
B．The lack of medical care．
C．The features of measles itself．
D．The overuse of vaccine．
35．What is the purpose of the passage？B
A．To introduce the idea of exemption．
B．To stress the importance of vaccination．
C．To discuss methods to cure measles．
D．To appeal for equal rights in medical treatment．
19．Terrafugia Inc．said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight，bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year．The vehicle---named the Transition-has two seats and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car．The Transition，which flew at 1，400feet for eight minutes last month，can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115in the flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and bums 5 gallons per hour in the air．On the ground，it gets 35miles per gallon．
Around 100 people have already put down a﹩10，000 deposit to get a Transition when they go on sale，and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces the Transition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show．But don't expect it to show up in too many driveways．It's expected to cost﹩279，000．And it won't help if you're stuck in traffic．The car needs a runway．
Inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s，according to Robert Mann，an airline industry expert．But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality．The government has already permitted the company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly．The Transition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety standards．
Mann said Terrafugia was helped by the Federal Aviation Administration's decision five years ago to create a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft，which are lower than those pilots of larger planes Terrafugia says an owner would need to pass a test and complete 20hours of flying time to be able to fly the Transition，a requirement pilots would find relatively easy to meet．

28．What is the first paragraph mainly about？A
A．The basic data of the Transition．
B．The advantages of flying cars．
C．The potential market for flying cars．
D．The designers of the Transition．
29．Why is the Transition unlikely to show up in too many driveways？C
A．It causes traffic jams．
B．It is difficult to operate．
C．It is very expensive．
D．It bums too much fuel．
30．What is the government's attitude to the development of the flying car？B
A．Cautious．
B．Favorable．
C．Ambiguous．
D．Disapproving．
31．What is the best title for the text？D
A．Flying Car at Auto Show           B．The Transition's Fist Flight
C．Pilots'Dream Coming True         D．Flying Car Closer to Reality．

The teen spent her childhood living in dug-outs（防空洞），cars，and any place where her family could find shelter．She was treated cruelly by her mother，a drug user，who left her and her sister alone without food for days．Her older brother disturbed her study too many tunes．Her poor living conditions led to her becoming extremely weak，which caused her to miss school often．

At 14，her mother was put in prison for leaving Webster and her sister in a car in the middle of a school day．The two girls were placed in foster care（寄养所）with a woman whom Webster still lives with．She calls her"Mema"．
"Mema"，who the teen sees as her mom，encouraged Webster as she returned school again．Even after missing three years of school，Webster was able to be excellent．Now Webster has planned to attend University of California at Los Angeles and study physics．
"I got to a place where I was able to keep going and push for higher than a 4.1and push to get into a really great college or university．I see success．I see happiness and I see peace，"she told KPIX 5．

A．In a car．
B．In the dug-out．
C．In foster care．
D．At the University of California．
26．Why was Webster's mother put into prison？B
A．She was always taking drugs．
B．She left her daughters alone in a car．
C．She stole food for her three children．
D．She didn't let her children attend school．
27．What's the future goal of Webster？C
A．Becoming a physics teacher．
B．Earning enough money to buy a house．
C．Being admitted into a really good college．
D．Breaking away from her mother and brother．
28．What do we know about Webster？D
A．She wouldn't believe in anyone any longer．
B．She got a lot of help from her brother．
C．She was brought up in a warm family．
D．She got motherly love from Mema．
12．It is the burning of fuels that causes most air pollution．
