The word "them" in Line 7, Para. 2 refers to _________.

A) artificial hearts are seldom effective B) the country should not spend so much money on artificial hearts C) the country is not spending enough money on artificial hearts D) America's health-care programs are not doing enough for the nation's health Just seven years ago, the Jarvik-7 artificial heart was being cheered as the model of human creativeness. The sight of Barney Clark - alive and conscious after trading his diseased heart for a metal-and-plastic pump - convinced the press, the public and many doctors that the future had arrived. It hadn't. After monitoring production of the Jarvik-7, and reviewing its effects on the 150 or so patients (most of whom got the device as a temporary measure) the U.S. Food and Drug Administration concluded that the machine was doing more to endanger lives than to save them. Last week the agency cancelled its earlier approval, effectively banning (禁止) the device. 注：1.cheer 歡呼、喝彩 2.convince 使……相信 3.monitor 監(jiān)視 4.review 回顧 5.the U.S. Food and Drug Administration 美國食物藥品管理局簡寫FDA ●成果型文章： 1.文章中只有一個成果，作者正評價 2.文中出現(xiàn)新、老兩個成果，新成果正評，老成果負(fù)評，抓住正負(fù)評價原因 3.抓住新老成果各自技術(shù)特點 The recall may hurt Symbion Inc, maker of the Jarvik-7, but it won't end the request for an artificial heart. One problem with the banned model is that the tubes connecting it to an external power source created a passage for infection (感染). Inventors are now working on new devices that would be fully placed, along with a tiny power pack, in the patient's chest. The first sample products aren't expected for another 10 or 20 years. But some people are already worrying that they'll work - and that America's overextended health-care programs will lose a precious $2.5 billion to $5 billion a year providing them for a relatively few dying patients. If such expenditures (開支) cut into funding for more basic care, the net effect could actually be a decline in the nation's health. 注：1.recall 取消，re 有“向后”含義 2.看到Symbion Inc.就把32題標(biāo)在這里；看到new devices就把33題標(biāo)在這里。 3.external 外部的，passage 通道 4.work 可行、有效，they 指代前文 the first sample product 5.providing 引導(dǎo)現(xiàn)在分詞做狀語 指代題做法：1.將代詞所在句代詞之前部分的名詞以及代詞之前句子的名詞劃出 2.根據(jù)單復(fù)數(shù)縮小范圍 3.注意結(jié)合動詞判斷所指代為人、事或物 34. The word "them" in Line 7, Para. 2 refers to _________. A) doctors who treat heart diseases B) makers of artificial hearts C) America's health-care programs D) new models of artificial hearts 注：指代題，按照指代題的作法解題 31. According to the passage the Jarvik-7 artificial heart proved to be ________. A) a technical failure B) a technical wonder C) a good life saver D) an effective means to treat heart disease 注：對老成果負(fù)評價 32. From the passage we know that Symbion Inc. ________. A) has been banned by the government from producing artificial hearts B) will review the effects of artificial hearts before designing new models C) may continue to work on new models of reliable artificial hearts D) can make new models of artificial hearts available on the market in 10 to 20 years 注：屢敗屢戰(zhàn)。A 選項為泛指而文章為特指；B 選項為竄段選項，另外選項中的 artificial hearts 擴大了文章中的指代范圍。 二段首句：The recall may hurt Symbion Inc, maker of the Jarvik-7, but it won't end the request for an artificial heart. 33. The new models of artificial hearts are expected _________. A) to have a working life of 10 or 20 years B) to be set fully in the patient's chest C) to be equipped with an external power source D) to create a new passage for infection 注：第二段考新成果的技術(shù)特點 35. Some people feel that _________. A) artificial hearts are seldom effective B) the country should not spend so much money on artificial hearts C) the country is not spending enough money on artificial hearts D) America's health-care programs are not doing enough for the nation's health 注：定位第二段 But some people are already worrying ...
