14.When I first started university,I remembered hearing about bone marrow(骨髓)donation during Freshman's Week.Some students volunteers from a group called Marrow tried to convince me to attend an event so I could learn more about it.The word"bone"immediately made me think that donating would be a painful procedure,so I refused. Back then,there was no way I could have known three years later,I would be one of the many people that desperately needs a bone marrow donor to save their lives.
    I am currently waiting to be matched with a donor and if I am lucky enough to find a good match,it will be this lovely stranger that saves my life.I received my cancer diagnosis in June.It is only at that time that I realized how ignorant I had been about the bone marrow donation process.
    The process of donating stem cells is actually very simple.In 90% of cases,donors are asked to donate their blood stem cells,the other 10% will give their bone marrow.Lots of donors say that both these things are virtually pain free,and nothing to be scared about.Being a bone marrow donor should be something to be proud of,as every donor has an opportunity to save someone's life!
    At the moment I know that the doctors are busy searching for a match,I simply live every day in the hope that there will be a donor right for me.If I have an opportunity for life,I won't waste it.
    When I was a first year at university,I made the mistake of walking away from becoming a stem cell donor.Please don't make the same mistake that I did.There are so many people out there,including myself,that need your help; and by undergoing a simple,pain-free procedure,you could have the chance to proudly say that you saved someone's life.

24.Why did the author refuse to learn more about bone marrow donation before?B
A.Because she could get nothing from it.
B.Because she thought that donating would be painful.
C.Because she had known nothing about it.
D.Because she was in poor health.
25.What can we learn from the underlined sentence in paragraph 1?C
A.The author was concerned about others.
B.The author was confident about the bone marrow donation.
C.The author needs the bone marrow donation now.
D.The author donates her bone marrow to save others.
26.The author needs the bone marrow because she gotA
A.cancer         B.headache           C.flu           D.high blood pressure
27.The author told us her story toD
A.show us the experience of her college life.
B.explain the cause of her cancer.
C.recall her painful past.
D.encourage people to be a bone marrow donor.

分析 在我大学开始的时候,由于对骨髓捐赠产生了误解,我犯了拒绝骨髓捐赠的错误;三年后我自己因为癌症而成为了一名需要得到他人骨髓捐赠的人,我很后悔自己当初犯的错误,希望大家不要像我一样再犯同样的错误,而要做一个乐于进行骨髓捐赠的人.

解答 24-27.BCAD
24题答案:B 考查细节推理,根据文章第一段的"The word"bone"immediately made me think that donating would be a painful procedure,so I refused"("骨头"立刻使我认为捐赠会是一个痛苦的过程,所以我拒绝了)可知本题答案为B选项.
25题答案:C 考查细节推理,根据此句句意"那时候,我无法知道三年后我也是那些极其需要骨髓捐赠来挽救性命者之一"可知本题答案为C选项"作者现在也需要骨髓捐赠".
26题答案:A 考查细节推理,根据后面的"I received my cancer diagnosis in June.It is only at that time that I realized how ignorant I had been about the bone marrow donation process."(六月份我得到了我的癌症诊断,那时候我才意识到我对于骨髓捐赠过程是有多么无知)可知本题答案为A选项.
27题答案:D 考查细节推理,根据最后一段的"Please don't make the same mistake that I did.There are so many people out there,including myself,that need your help…you could have the chance to proudly say that you saved someone's life"(请不要再犯我那样的错误了,有很多包括我在内的人需要你们的帮助…你能自豪地说你救过别人的性命)可知本题答案为D选项"鼓励人们进行骨髓捐赠".

He sat on the park bench,head in hands,(41)A if anything could save his company from bankruptcy

3.What's more exciting than having a fresh hot pizza delivered to your door  How about having it brought to you by a robot  Thanks to Domino's Robotic Unit or DRU,that just became a reality!On March 8,the three-foot tall robot delivered its first pizza to some lucky residents in Brisbane,Australia.
 The fully autonomous DR U is the result of cooperation between Domino's Pizza Australia and Marathon Robotics.The 450-pound machine that travels at a maximum speed of 12.4 miles an hour can traverse a distance of up to 12 miles and back,before requiring a battery recharge.LIDAR,a laser-based sensor technology similar to the one used in self-driving cars,enables DRU to detect and avoid obstacles,while traditional sensors,much like those used in vacuum robots ensure its path is safe as it heads to its destination.
 The robot can fit up to ten pizzas and even has a separate cold area to accommodate drink orders.To access their food,customers have to enter the unique code provided to them by the company.This not only ensures that they pick up the right pizza,but also prevents the pies from getting stolen.
 Scientists expect additional DRU's to be ready for service in their various Queensland locations within the next six months.But don't expect these super cute robots to replace humans anytime soon.According to Domino's the DRU still needs extensive testing,which the company believes could take up to two years.
 And then there is also the issue of regulations.The public use of autonomous vehicles is still banned in most countries.But Don Meij,the CEO and Managing Director of Domino's Pizza Australia New Zealand Ltd,is not worried.He is"confident that one day DRU will become an integral part of the Domino's family."

21.What's the function of LIDARB
A.Recharging DRU's battery.
B.Keeping DRU free of obstacles.

D.Protecting DRU from bad weather.
22.What does the underlined word"accommodate"in paragraph 3 probably meanA
A.Hold.
B.Sell.
C.Heat.
D.Show.
23.What can we infer about future of DRUD
A.It will replace humans soon.
B.It will be applied worldwide.
C.It may be banned in Australia.
D.It may need some improvements.
