Reading Comprehension
(Multiple Choice) (每小题：1分)
Directions: Read
the following passages carefully and choose the
best answer from the four choices marked A,
B,
C and D.
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the
following passage or dialog.
The AIDS virus is
carried in a person's body fluids . The virus can
be passed during sex with an infected partner
or
by sharing instruments used to take
intravenous (静脉注射
的) drugs. It can also be
passed in blood or fluids made from blood or from
a pregnant (怀孕
的) woman with AIDS to her
developing baby. Many stories about the spread of
AIDS are false. You cannot get A
IDS from
working or attending school with someone who has
the disease. You cannot get it from drinking
glasses
or other objects used by such persons.
Officials say no one has caught AIDS by living
with, caring for, or touching
an AIDS patient.
There are several warning signs of being
infected with AIDS. They include always feeling
tired, unexplained (无
法解释的) weight loss, and
uncontrolled expulsion (排
泄) of body wastes.
Other warning signs are the appearance of white
areas on the mouth, dark red areas of skin
tha
t do not go away, and a higher than normal
body temperature.
However, just because you
have one or more of these conditions does not mean
you have AIDS. Always go to a d
octor or health
center for a complete examination. The doctor may
give you an AIDS blood test. When a virus
ent
ers the body, the body's defenses against
disease produce antibodies (抗
体) to fight the
virus. The test shows if the body has produced
antibodies to the AIDS virus. Results of the test
are
known after a few hours. The test tells
only if your body has produced AIDS antibodies. It
cannot tell if you have
AIDS or if you will
ever get the disease. In December (1988), the
United States government approved (批
准) a
simpler and faster AIDS blood test. The newer test
can confirm (证实) the presence (出
现) of the AIDS
antibodies in about five minutes.
1. The
AIDS virus can spread ___________.
A. only
from a man to woman B. among those who

thought that ___________.
A. the AIDS virus
can be passed during sex
B. the AIDS virus
can spread from an expecting mother to her baby
C. the AIDS virus can be passed by touching
infected blood
D. one can get AIDS by
working or attending school with someone who has
the disease
3. The warning signs of being
infected with AIDS do not include ____________.
A. weight loss B. uncontrolled expulsion
of body wastes
C. the appearance of red
areas of skin D. a body temperature lower
than a normal one
4. If a person is worried
that he might have AIDS, he should go to
_____________.
A. a government office
B. a defense system
C. an antibody
production center D. a doctor or health center
5. _________ can show if one has AIDS.
A.
Whether one has a defense method against AIDS
B. Whether one has unexplained weight loss
C. Whether the AIDS antibodies are produced in
the body
D. The doctor's complete
examination
Questions 6 to 10 are based on
the following passage or dialog.
In the
United States, about 750,000 persons have suffered
from AIDS. More than one half of them have died.

But
doctors say evidence (证据) also shows there is no
reason for persons to become terrified (惊
吓) by
the disease. The AIDS virus is spread during sex
with an infected partner, or by infected blood.
But doctors
say their studies show the disease
is not spread through normal, close social
activities.
A study by one research team was
printed in the New England Journal (杂
志) of
Medicine. The doctors studied 101 family members
who lived with AIDS and lived in crowded
conditions.
The family members shared many
personal goods with the patients. These included
toothbrushes, drinking glasses
,beds, towels,
and toilets. Doctors said only one family member—a
five-year-old girl—got the AIDS virus. They
note, however, that the girl's mother had the
disease. They believe the girl probably was born
with the virus. No
other family member in the
study got the AIDS virus or showed any signs of
the disease. The head of the study,
Gerald
Friedland, said if the disease is not easily
spread in crowded homes, it also will not spread
easily in factorie
s, offices, schools, and
other public places. Doctor Friedland said the
study also shows there is no reason to punish
AIDS patients and to force them to live separately
from other persons.
American health
officials recently warned, however, that some
health care workers should take special care. The
report noted the AIDS virus is carried in
blood and other body fluids. It said health care
workers should put protec
tive (保护性的) covers
over their eyes and skin during medical
operations, dental (牙科
的) work, or other times
when the patient may bleed.
In the United
States, most AIDS patients are homosexual
(同性恋
的) men, people taking drugs who used
infected needles and people who received infected
blood. More recent stu
dies show the AIDS virus
also can be spread during heterosexual (异性的)
relations. It can spread either from
A.
Whether one has a defense method against AIDS the
man to the woman or from the woman to the man.
6. Doctors say there is no reason for people
to be frightened about AIDS because _________.
A. it is not deadly
B. few people are
infected with AIDS
C. the AIDS virus is not
spread in everyday social activities.
D. the
AIDS virus is not spread during sex 7.
The
study of 101 family members who lived with AIDS
patients shows that ________.
A. AIDS is not
spread by using the same personal items
B.
women are more likely to get the AIDS virus than
men
C. married men are less likely to get
AIDS than unmarried ones
D. the AIDS virus
is passed by drinking glasses 8.
According
to Doctor Friedland, there is no reason to
_______.
A. stop meeting AIDS patients
B. stop living with AIDS patients
C.
fear that AIDS can be passed from a mother to a
baby
D. fear that the AIDS virus can be
passed during sex
9. Health workers were
warned to take special care when the patient
bleeds because _______.
A. AIDS can be passed
by touching the patient's body
B. AIDS can
be spread by touching the patient's skin
C.
the AIDS virus can be carried in blood or other
body fluids
D. the health care workers may
be infected by the blood
10. _______ are
least likely to be infected with the AIDS disease.
A. People who use drugs
B. Persons who
offer infected blood to others
C. Men who
are gay
D. Married men

Questions 11 to
15 are based on the following passage or dialog.
Everyone knows what happens when you catch a
cold. First you get a sore throat. Then you
sneeze . After coughi
ng and blowing your way
through the next few days, it's over... until the
next time. Every year 69% of Canadians
will
suffer at least one cold. Colds are responsible
for a great deal of lost time at work and at
school.
There is no known cure for the
common cold. Once you catch a cold, your body
usually makes antibodies (抗
体) against the
virus. These antibodies help the body develop a
resistance (抵抗
力) to the virus if you catch it
again. Unfortunately, the common cold is caused by
over 200 different viruses. The
large number
of viruses and the fact that they change help
explain why there is no cure for the common cold.
Adul
ts, who have been exposed (遭
受) to more
viruses, tend to suffer fewer colds than children.
The occurrence of colds tends to increase in the
wint
er but NOT because of the cold! Cold
weather has not been shown to increase the number
of colds. People spend
more time indoors in
winter. They are therefore more likely to come
into physical contact with each other and
spre
ad the disease.
Common colds are
spread by sneezes or by direct contact with a cold
sufferer. Sneezing spreads colds when some
one
sneezes near other people, or sneezes on objects
which others later touch. Once the virus is on
someone's hand
, and the unsuspecting
(毫无戒心
的) victim touches his or her nose or
eyes, the virus is spread and trouble begins.
The simplest and most effective way to lower
the risk of catching a cold is to wash your hands
frequently.
11. At the very beginning of
the passage, the writer talks about ________.
A. what a cold is like B. what a cold virus
is like
C. how to cure a cold D. how to
prevent a cold from spreading
12. There is
no cure for the common cold because ________.
A. the nature of colds remains unknown B.
the large number of cold viruses keeps changing
C. your body can't develop antibodies D.
your resistance isn't strong enough
13.
Which of the following products would have
increased sales if more people became aware of the
real reason
for the spread of colds?
A.
Sweaters (毛衣). B. Paper napkins (餐巾). C. Soap.
D. Bottles of water.
14. People are more
likely to catch a cold if they ________.
A.
go outside in the cold winter B. talk to those
who once had colds
C. often wash their hands
D. always stay indoors and have physical contact
with each other
15. Colds are spread by
________.

with a cold sufferer
