Part IV Reading Comprehension
Passage One
Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage:
Adverse (不良的) drug reactions may cause the deaths of over 100,000 US hospital patients each year, making them a leading cause of death nationwide, according to a report in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
“The incidence (发生率) of serious and fatal adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in US hospitals was found to be extremely high,” say researchers at the University of Toronto in Ontario, Canada.
They carried out an analysis of 39 ADR-related studies at US hospitals over the past 30 years and defined an ADR as “any harmful, unintended, and undesired effect of a drug which occurs at doses (剂量) used in humans for medical treatment.”.
An average 6.7% of all hospitalized patients experience an ADR every year, according to the researchers. They estimate that “in 1994, overall 2,216,000 hospitalized patients had serious ADRs, and 106,000 had fatal ADRs.” This means that ADRs may rank as the fourth single largest cause of death in America..
The control of ADRs also means spending more money. One US study estimated the overall cost of treating ADRs at up to $4 billion per year.
Dr. David Bates of Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts, believes that healthcare workers need to pay more attention to the problem, especially since many ADRs are easily preventable. “When a patient develops an allergy (过敏症) or sensitivity, it is often not recorded,” Bates notes, “and patients receive drug to which they have known allergies or sensitivities with disturbing frequency.” He believes special computerized systems – still work-in-progress at many of the nation’s hospitals – should help cut down the frequency of these types of errors.
61. Who wrote the reporter in the American journal? A、The American Medical Association.
B、Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston. C、Doctors at an American hospital
D、Researchers at a Canadian university.
62. What does the word fatal (Para. 4) mean in the passage? A、Resulting in death. B、Lucky
C、Leading to happiness. D、Worried
63. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A、ADRs cause a lot of Americans to die every year. B、The control of ADRs costs huge amount of money. C、Only hospitalized patients may experience ADRs. D、ADRs are one of the leading causes of death in US. 64. What does Dr. Bates mainly imply in what he says? A、ADRs can be easily identified and prevented. B、Healthcare workers are too busy to notice ADRs. C、Hosptials may use computers to prevent ADRs. D、Doctors and nurses are partly responsible for ADRs.
65. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?
A、Adverse Drug Reactions – A Major Cause of Death B、Adverse Drug Reactions Are Medical Errors C、Doctors and Adverse Drug Reactions
D、High Incidence of Adverse Drug Reactions
Passage Two
Questions 66 to 70 are based on the following passage:
Every human being has a unique arrangement of the skin on his fingers and this arrangement is unchangeable. Scientists and experts have proved the uniqueness of fingerprints and discovered that no exactly similar pattern is passed on from parents to children, though nobody knows why this is the case.
The structure on a person’s fingers does not change with growth and is not affected by superficial injuries. Burns, cuts and other damage to the outer part of the skin will be replaced in time by new skin which bears a reproduction of the original pattern. It is only when the inner skin is injured that the arrangement will be destroyed. Some criminals make use of this fact to remove their own fingerprints but this is a dangerous and rare step to take.
Fingerprints can be made easily with printer’s ink. They can be recorded easily. With special methods, identification (辨识) can be achieved successfully within a short time. Because of the simplicity and economy of this system, fingerprints have often been used as a method of solving criminal cases. A suspected man denies a charge, but his fingerprints can prove who he is even if his appearance has been changed by age or accidents.
When a suspect leaves fingerprints behind at the scene of crime, they are difficult to detect with the naked eye. Special techniques are used to “develop” them. Some of the marks found are incomplete but identification is possible if a print in the size of a quarter of an inch square can be obtained.
