【解析】

英国80岁高龄的老人雷·弗林靠仿生学眼睛重获光明。他是全球首位使用仿生眼这一新技术的患者。弗林的仿生眼售价为12万5000美金，英国的国民医疗保健制度希望降低手术费用好使更多的失明者能够接受这项手术。

【1】根据上文“A British man can see again because of a new bionic（仿生学）eye.”——这是段落的总述句，下文是进一步介绍关于这位重获光明的老人的情况，故选E。

【2】由上文可知“老人多年前得了老年性眼疾”，根据空格的下文“His eyesight became so bad that he even could not see shapes properly”——他的视力只能看见东西的轮廓，推断空格指“他的视力越来越差”；故选C。

【3】根据第三段，由上文可知“老人接受医生的建议安装仿生眼”；根据空格下文“They searched for much information and made a good preparation.”——医生在查阅很多的资料后成功地给老人做了手术，推断空格指“医生花很多的时间准备手术”，故选D。

【4】根据第三段“the operation was successful.”——可知老人的手术很成功，下文是陈述“手术后老人重获光明，可以看到的东西”， 空格是其中的一句表述，故选A。

【5】根据第四段，空格的下文“Its price is ＄125，000!”，推断空格指“老人的仿生眼睛值多少钱呢”，故选B。
