人物故事类A(2018江西上饶市一模)James Harrison, who was entitled “The Man with the Golden Arm”，has donated blood almost every week, saving more than two million babies in the process.Harrison told CNN, an American channel, about why he chooses to donate, even though its not the most pleasurable experience: “Never once have I watched the needle go in my arm. I cant stand the sight of blood, and I cant stand the pain.”An amazingly unique antibody(抗体) in Harrisons blood makes it a true lifesaver for babies who could be affected by rhesus disease(Rh溶血症)The condition occurs during some pregnancies, when a woman who has rhesusnegative blood produces antibodies that destroy her babies cells. This can happen when the baby has the same rhesuspositive blood as the father. Rhesus disease can cause health issues in babies. It can even result in death.Harrisons blood helped physicians develop an injection called AntiD in the 1960s, which prevents women who have rhesusnegative blood from developing the harmful antibodies while pregnant. After Harrison completes one of his routine donations, his blood can be used to create more vaccines(疫苗)“I started donating in 1955, two days after I turned 18，”Harrison said when he completed his 1,075th donation.As CNN reported, every AntiD vaccine created in Australia has something to do with a donation from Harrison, who holds the record for the most blood donations in Australia.“A number of mothers have come up to me and said, Thank you very much for what youve done because I now have one, two, three healthy children.” Harrison said.Harrisons own daughter, Tracey Mellowship, had been one of the 17 percent of women who need AntiD during their pregnancy. The injection helped guarantee her second son would be born healthy.“Dad had always donatedwe knew that，” Mellowship said. “But it didnt hit home until I was pregnant and knew the consequences.”1.From the first two paragraphs we can infer that Harrison is _.Ahumorous and smart Boptimistic but weakCfriendly but nervous Dbrave and unselfish2Babies affected by rhesus disease _.Agrow problematic cellsBcant form blood themselvesCdevelop the disease after being bornDhave the same blood type as their mothers3Harrisons blood can _.Ahelp patients develop AntiDBcure rhesus disease affected babiesCavoid the risk of rhesus diseaseDstop babies from producing antibodies4Before Mellowship was injected AntiD, her family didnt _.Aunderstand the meaning of Harrisons actBexpect she would have another healthy sonCknow Harrison held a record for donating bloodDrealize the high rate of potential rhesus disease答案：【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了詹姆斯哈里森因为自己的血液所包含的独特抗体可以帮助医生研发Rh溶血症疫苗，所以他几乎每周献血一次。目前他是澳大利亚献血最多的人。1D解析：推理判断题。由第一段中的“has donated blood almost every week”可知，他是无私的；由第二段最后两句可知，他从不看针头扎进胳膊，因为他受不了看见血，也受不了针扎的疼痛。尽管如此，他依然坚持几乎每周献血一次，由此可以推断，他非常勇敢，故选D项。2A解析：细节理解题。由第四段中的“produces antibodies that destroy her babies cells”可知，Rh溶血症患儿的细胞被破坏，会变成问题细胞。3C解析：细节理解题。由第五段第一句可知，他的血液可以帮助医生研发一种名叫AntiD的注射液，从而避免婴儿得溶血症。本题考生易误选A项，根据第五段中的“helped physicians develop an injection called”可知，他的血液是帮助医生研发注射液，而不是帮助病人研发。4A解析：细节理解题。由最后一段他女儿的话可知，在她注射AntiD之前，她知道爸爸在献血，但直到自己注射完后，她才意识到并理解爸爸行为的重大意义。A项中的understand对应原文最后一句中的第二个knew；the meaning对应consequences。B(2018广东省广州市高三毕业考试)At first sight, Alma Deutscher, a thirteenyearold girl from England appears to be like any other typical teenager. She loves to skip rope, read and play with her younger sister. But this modest youngster, who composed her first musical work at age six, first short opera at age seven, and first fulllength opera based on Cinderella at age ten, is anything but average. Though her parents downplay her extraordinary talent, young Alma is being described as “little Mozart” by the music world.Almas operatic talent takes on the classic fairy tale, which she began writing at age eight, but has a slight twist. Her Cinderella is a musician who meets her Prince Charming through a song. “In my Cinderella, she sings the beginning of a balladbut at midnight she flees. Eventually, the prince finds her after asking all the maidens of the land to sing the end of the ballad.”The opera was first performed in Vienna, Austria on December 29,2016, where then the elevenyearold skillfully switched between the piano and the violin and received enthusiastic reviews. The young genius has since performed two new piano works, one in Austria and the other in China.While this may appear to be a lot for someone so young, Alma is not worried. She says, “Of course I have to work hard. But all children have to work hard for exams, and at least when I work hard, I work hard for something incredibly exciting, like seeing my whole opera put on stage.”Almas musical talent first came to light before she could even talk. Her parents recall that as an 18monthold toddler, she was able to hum a pitchperfect version of the childrens rhyme Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.However, Almas abilities only gained international attention in 2012，after a family friend posted a video online comparing her to Mozart. The family was suddenly swamped with media requests and Alma became an overnight star, dubbed “little Mozart”. This nickname makes her parents unhappy because they believe it puts added pressure on the young girl. They would instead prefer her to be called “a composer and musician”Alma does not want to be compared to the famous artist either, saying, “There was only one Mozart, and I prefer to be little Alma.” Regardless of what she calls herself, the thirteenyearold is changing the world of music forever!1What do we know about Alma Deutscher?AShe comes from a famous musical family.BShe has shown great musical talent from a young age.CShe regularly performs the classical music of Mozart.DShe has adapted some famous works of classical music.2How did Alma get to be widely known?AThrough an online video.BBy performing on television.CBy putting on an opera.DThrough her parents promotion.3What is Almas attitude toward her success?AShe is still unsatisfied with her performance.BShe is uncomfortable with so much pressure.CShe is modest about her musical achievements.DShe i
