第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A

An Australian man who has been donating his extremely rare kind of blood for 56 years has saved the lives of more than two million babies.

James Harrison has an antibody in his plasma (血浆) that stops babies dying from Rhesus disease, a form of severe anemia (贫血症). He has enabled countless mothers to give birth to healthy babies, including his own daughter, Tracey, who had a healthy son thanks to her father’s blood.

Mr. Harrison has been giving blood every few weeks since he was 18 years old and has now added up to a total of 984 donations. When he started donating, his blood was regarded so special that his life was insured for one million Australian dollars.

He was also nicknamed the “man with the golden arm” or the “man in two million”. He said, “I’ve never thought about stopping. Never.” He made a promise to be a donor aged 14 after taking major chest surgery in which he needed 13 liters of blood. “I was in hospital for three months,” he said. “The blood I received saved my life so I made a decision to give blood when I was 18.”

Just after he started donating he was found to have the rare and life-saving antibody in his blood. At the time, thousands of babies in Australia were dying each year of Rhesus disease. Other newborns suffered brain damage for a long time because of the condition. The disease creates an incompatibility between the mother’s blood and her unborn baby’s blood. It is because of one having Rh-positive blood and the other Rh-negative.

His blood has since led to the development of a vaccine (疫苗) called Anti-D. After his blood type was discovered, Mr. Harrison volunteered to have a series of tests to help develop the Anti-D vaccine. “They insured(投保) me for a million dollars so I knew my wife Barbara would be taken care of,” he said. “I wasn’t scared. I was glad to help. I had to sign every form going and basically sign my life away.”

Mr. Harrison is Rh-negative and was given injections of Rh-positive blood. It was found his plasma could treat the condition and since then it has been given to hundreds of thousands of women. It has also been given to babies after they are born to stop them developing the disease.

It is estimated he has helped save 2.2 million babies so far. Mr. Harrison is still donating every few weeks now.

51. How old is James Harrison?

A. 56 B. 70 C. 74 D. 78

52. Why did James decide to donate his blood? Because .

A. his daughter asked him to help her son

B. he has a golden arm worth a million dollars

C. a vaccine called Anti-D is to be developed

D. someone else’s blood saved his life

Robots are being used for the first time in hospitals. “Robot-nurses” perform a variety of tasks such as delivering medicine, food and laboratory samples to sickrooms and taking away waste.
