Answer 1

【答案】

【1】A

【2】D

【3】B

【解析】

試題分析：這是一篇說明文。世界盲人多達4千萬。為使貧富國家獲得均等的醫(yī)療知識和技術(shù)，ORBIS組織舉辦flying teaching eye hospital，并且為之做了許多貢獻。要讓這個教學機構(gòu)發(fā)揮更大作用，大家都不免出一份力吧！

【1】A寫作意圖題 該段有三句話.連續(xù)用了三個imagine.。尤其后兩句要讀者想象一下：閉著眼睛度過余生將會怎樣；用指尖不用眼睛閱讀此文又會怎樣（imagine what it would be like spending the rest of your life with your eyes closed. Imagine having to read this page, not with your eyes but with your finger-tips.）。作者的意圖顯然要大家體會一下盲人生活，從而引起讀者閱讀下文話題的興趣。因此A選項正確。

【2】D細節(jié)理解題 文中第三段告訴我們，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)（Doctors are taught the latest techniques of bringing sight back to people there.）；在第四段中還可知ORBIS組織通過提供為期三個星期的培訓課程來幫助發(fā)展中國家（ ORBIS tries to help developing countries by providing training during three-week medical programs.）； 該段還提到ORBIS 組織已教了三萬五千多名醫(yī)生護士相關(guān)的恢復(fù)視力技巧（ORBIS has taught sight-saving techniques to over 35,000 doctors and nurses, ）。由此得知，D選項與此意吻合。

【3】B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組織運營的flying teaching eye hospital給全世界培訓醫(yī)生和護士所做出的貢獻。最后倡導大家捐款來幫助ORBIS組織運營的flying teaching eye hospital。唯有B選項符合文章大意。其余三項選項范疇太大，不貼切。所以B 選項正確。
