【解析】

試題分析:世界盲人多達(dá)4千萬(wàn)。為使貧富國(guó)家獲得均等的醫(yī)療知識(shí)和技術(shù)，ORBIS組織舉辦flying teaching eye hospital，并且為之做了許多貢獻(xiàn)。要讓這個(gè)教學(xué)機(jī)構(gòu)發(fā)揮更大作用，大家都不免出一份力吧！

1. 寫作意圖題。該段有三句話連續(xù)用了三個(gè)imagine（imagine what it would be like spending the rest of your life with you eyes closed. Imagine having to read this page, not with your eyes but with your finger-tips.）,要讀者想象一下：閉著眼睛度過(guò)余生將會(huì)怎樣；用指尖不用眼睛閱讀此文又會(huì)怎樣。作者顯然要大家體會(huì)一下盲人生活，從而引起讀者閱讀下文話題的興趣。故選C.

2. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段Unfortunately, rich countries posses most of this knowledge, while developing countries do not可知當(dāng)今世界醫(yī)療知識(shí)如此豐富，醫(yī)療技巧如此發(fā)達(dá)，4千萬(wàn)的盲人，2/3的不應(yīng)該遭受失明的痛苦。然而醫(yī)療知識(shí)和技巧的擁有發(fā)達(dá)居多，而貧窮國(guó)家則無(wú)。顯然是醫(yī)療知識(shí)和技巧的分配不均。故選C.

3. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段Doctors are taught the latest techniques of bringing sight back to people there可知在ORBIS組織中醫(yī)生被教給使盲人恢復(fù)視力的最新技術(shù)；根據(jù)第四段ORBIS tries to help developing countries by providing training during three-week medical programs可知ORBIS組織通過(guò)提供為期三個(gè)星期的培訓(xùn)課程來(lái)幫助發(fā)展中國(guó)家；且由ORBIS has taught sight-saving techniques to over 35,000 doctors and nurses可知ORBIS 組織已教了三萬(wàn)五千多名醫(yī)生護(hù)士相關(guān)的恢復(fù)視力技巧。故選B.

4. 主旨要義題。根據(jù)最后一段列舉US$38/$380/ $1,300分別可以為盲人恢復(fù)視力做些什么，然后在結(jié)束部分提出協(xié)助ORBIS 組織改善盲人境遇的請(qǐng)求。作者顯然在向讀者呼吁捐款（Please help ORBIS improve the quality of life for so many people less fortunate than ourselves.）故選A.

5. 大意歸納題。全文先以吸引讀者關(guān)注盲人入手，然后介紹ORBIS組織運(yùn)營(yíng)的flying teaching eye hospital給全世界培訓(xùn)醫(yī)生和護(hù)士所做出的貢獻(xiàn)。 最后倡導(dǎo)大家捐款來(lái)幫助ORBIS組織運(yùn)營(yíng)的flying teaching eye hospital。唯有C選項(xiàng)符合文章大意，A選項(xiàng)以及B選項(xiàng)范疇太大，不貼切。故選C.

I received a call today asking if I would be willing to bring food to a family in need. The mother was having a major operation and would be lying down for several weeks. Of course, I responded with an immediate “Yes!”. As I planned the meal in my head, I reflected on how many times over the years I had been asked to prepare food. I have done so countless times with a very open heart.

But the truly amazing thing is that I have received double over the course of my life. When my mother passed away, our house was filled with fresh dinners for weeks. A woman from the church of our community stopped by each evening with some food. The gift of food was her small way of trying to ease our pain.

Later in my life, when I was on bed rest during my pregnancy with twins, women of the church again stepped in to help.
