Question

Dr Asim Syed, 32, has performed more than 100 operations at London’s Hammersmith Hospital in the country’s busiest transplant unit, but never imagined that he would one day become a donor himself.
He stepped forward when was told his 64-year-old mother might be dead within months unless she got a new kidney (腎). The worried surgeon brought her to London to be cared for at his hospital. However, it was not all plain sailing. Tests showed Dr Syed was the wrong blood group, so the only way was to go through a special blood-washing process. He consulted colleagues about that, but they didn’t agree, because the risk of rejection is still too high. Dr Syed and his mother were then advised to consider a new way of donating and receiving, called an organ-paired. That is, Dr Syed donated his kidney to an unknown person and another donor in the chain was a successful match for his mother. The chain of three transplants took place at the same time on July 31 with Dr Syed’s kidney going to a recipient in the Midlands and Mrs. Syed receiving her kidney from a person in the south of England.
Just hours after donating his own kidney, Dr Syed found himself recovering in bed next to his mother. Mrs Syed said, “When I came round from my operation Asim was in the next bed and the first thing he said was, ‘Mum now all your worries are over.’ Tears fell down.”
Now mother and son are recovering well with Dr Syed already back at work. Mrs. Syed is staying with him for several months while the hospital monitors her progress.
He said, “I did what anyone would do when they see a relative suffering disease. Although I wasn’t able to help mum directly, by agreeing to be part of a chain, I was also very happy.”

Answer 1

BAAB
1，文中第二段However, it was not all plain sailing. Tests showed Dr Syed was the wrong blood group, so the only way was to go through a special blood-washing process.可知手術(shù)不順利的原因是Dr Syed was the wrong blood group，A，選項(xiàng)是無(wú)稽之談，C,D在文中都沒(méi)有體現(xiàn)。故答案選B。
2，第二段中的He consulted colleagues about that, but they didn’t agree, because the risk of rejection is still too high.可知，Dr Syed咨詢他的同事，關(guān)于the method of blood-washing,他的同事認(rèn)為他母親對(duì)他的腎臟異化反應(yīng)的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)非常高，所以認(rèn)為是危險(xiǎn)的，B，D在文中都沒(méi)有顯示，C, Dr Syed的同事有辦法為他母親治療，但是風(fēng)險(xiǎn)太高。故答案選A。
3，第三段中Mrs Syed said, “When I came round from my operation Asim was in the next bed and the first thing he said was, ‘Mum now all your worries are over.’ Tears fell down.”
Mrs Syed眼淚都留下來(lái)了，被她兒子的言行所感動(dòng)，對(duì)應(yīng)選項(xiàng)A.第四段中Mrs. Syed is staying with him for several months while the hospital monitors her progress.可知B,C,D選項(xiàng)是錯(cuò)誤的。
4，通過(guò)手術(shù)順利的治好了Mrs Syed的病癥，所以A是錯(cuò)誤的。文中沒(méi)有出現(xiàn)關(guān)于醫(yī)療費(fèi)用的描述，故答案C是錯(cuò)誤的。That is, Dr Syed donated his kidney to an unknown person and another donor in the chain was a successful match for his mother.可知Dr Syed沒(méi)有直接把他的腎臟捐給他的母親。答案D是錯(cuò)誤的。全文描述了一個(gè)作為醫(yī)生的兒子通過(guò)將自己的腎臟捐給第三者，第三者再將腎臟捐給醫(yī)生母親，以便治療好他的母親疾病的感人故事，故答案是B。
