3.The 2014 Ebola outbreak is the largest in history and the first Ebola outbreak in West Africa. Although the current epidemic does not cause a significant risk to other nations, many countries, including China and the United States of America, have actually been working closely with the Ebola hit states. For example, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is taking precautions at home besides its activities abroad.CDCs team of “virus hunters” is supported by specialized public health teams both in West Africa and at the CDC Atlanta headquarters. Together, they offer continuous support to save lives and protect people. CDC works closely with a number of U.S. government agencies, national and international partners. CDCs experience of working with Ebola is important to the World Health Organizations growing West Africa Ebola response.On Sept. 2, 2014, CDC Director, Tom Frieden called for more international partners to join this effort. “The sooner the world comes together to help West Africa, the safer we all will be. We know how to stop this outbreak. There is a window of opportunity to do so the challenge is to scale up the massive response needed to stop this outbreak.”CDCs response to Ebola is the largest international outbreak response in CDCs history with over 100 disease specialists on the ground in West Africa, supported by hundreds of public health emergency response experts stateside , activated at Level 1, its highest level, because of the significance of this outbreak.The CDC supports affected countries to establish Emergency Operations Centers at national and local levels and helps countries track the epidemic including using real-time data to improve real-time response.Efforts in West Africa to identify those infected and track people who have come into contact with them are improving. The CDC is operating and supporting labs in the region to improve diagnosis and testing samples from people with suspected Ebola from around the world. Local health care systems are strengthened through communication, coordination with partners and training on infection control for health care workers and safe patient treatment.26. How could we describe the 2014 Ebola outbreak?A. The first one in western countries.B. It did not ever threaten West Africa.C. Not the first but the largest one.27. The 2014 Ebola outbreak response was()?A. an American stateside activity.B. an international activity.C. a regional activity.28. What does the underlined word “massive” mean in Paragraph 3?A. huge.B. quick.C. urgent29. How many disease specialists from CDC have gone to West Africa for the Ebola response?A. Less than 100.B. A hundred.C. More than 100.30. What action does CDC take to respond to the large Ebola outbreak?A. Work closely with governmental, national and international partners.B. Call for more partners to join this effort.C. Establish Emergency Operations Centers.

    Attitudes to AIDS Now

    Most people say that the USA is making progress in fighting AIDS,but they don't know there's no cure
    and strongly disagree that" the AIDS epidemic(流行)is over,"a new survey finds.
    The findings,released Thursday by the Kaiser Family Foundation,reassure activists who have worried
    that public concern about AIDS might disappear in light of recent news about advances in treatment and
    declines in deaths.
    "While people are very optimistic about the advances,they're still realistic about the fact that there is no
    cure",says Sophia Chang,director of HIV programs at the foundation.
    The Kaiser survey, like a recent USA TODAY Gallup Poll(民意测验),does find that the number of
    people ranking AIDS as the country's top health problem has fallen.In the Kaiser poll,38%say it's the top
    concern,down from 44% in a 1996 poll;in the Gallup Poll,29% say AIDS is No.1,down from 41% in 1992
    and 67% in 1987.
    Other findings from Kaiser,which polled more than 1,200 adults in September and October and asked
    additional questions of another 1,000 adults in November:
    52% say the country is making progress against AIDS,up from 32%in 1995.
    51% say the government spends too little on AIDS.
    86% correctly say AIDS drugs can now lengthen lives;an equal number correctly say that the drugs are
    not cures.
    67% incorrectly say that AIDS deaths increased or stayed the same in the past year;24% know deaths
    fell.
    Daniel Zingale,director of AIDS Action Council,says,"I'm encouraged that the American people are
    getting the message that the AIDS epidemic isn't over. I hope the decision-makers in Washington are getting
    the same message... We have seen signs of complacency(得意)."

    Most people in the USA believe that________.
    A:advances have been made in treating AIDS
    B:AIDS is no longer an epidemic
    C:AIDS is killing more people than before
    D:there is still no cure for AIDS

    答案:A
    解析:
    由文章第一段第一句可知A项正确。making progress相当于advances, in fighting相当 于in treating。
    由文章第二段第一句中的“reassure activists who have worried that public concern about AIDS might disappear”可知选A。disappear相当于not concern anymore。

    Need for Emphasis on Treatment

    AIDS programs in developing countries put too little emphasis on treatment,the World Health Organization
    said Tuesday,asking for more small community-based clinics to be opened to treat HIV-infected people.
    An estimated 36 million to 46 million people are living with AIDS,two-thirds of them in Africa,but
    only 440,000 people in developing countries were receiving treatment by the end of 2003,the UN health
    agency said in its annual report.
    "Without treatment,all of them will die a premature and in most cases painful death,"the WHO said in
    the 169-page World Health Report.
    WHO Director General Lee Jong-wook said community-based treatment should be added to disease pre-
    vention and care for sufferers in AIDS programs.
    "Future generations will judge our time in large part by our response to the AIDS disease,"Lee said.
    "By tackling it decisively we will also be building health systems that can meet the health needs of
    today and tomorrow. This is a historic opportunity we cannot afford to miss,"he added.
    Antiretroviral drugs enable people hit by AIDS to live longer. The annual cost of treatment,which was
    about $10,000 when the drugs were first developed,has dropped to about$150.
    Treatment programs also help AIDS prevention efforts,the report said,citing great demands for testing
    and counseling where treatment has been made available.
    Good counseling in turn leads to more effective prevention in those who are uninfected,and significantly
    reduces the potential for HIV carriers to pass on the infection,the report said.
    Since its discovery in the 1980s,more than 20 million have died of AIDS,mostly in poor countries.

    AIDS treatment programs may also result in___________.
    A:better drugs
    B:lower yearly cost
    C:more effective prevention
    D:greater emphasis on treatment

    答案:C
    解析:
    本题为事实细节分析题。从文章第二段“An estimated 36 million to 46 million people are with AIDS,two-thirds of them in Africa,but only 440,000 people in developing countries were re-ceiving treatment by the end of 2003”可知,在非洲艾滋病患者高达两、三千万人,而生活在发展 中国家的艾滋病患者,接受治疗的人数却只有44万,相对来说太少了。
    从文章第二段中最后一句话中“annual report",可知世界卫生组织的“世界卫生报告” 是每年发表一次。
    本题为推理判断题。从文章第四段和第五段内容可知,Lee说到:社会应对艾滋病的预 防加大力度,多关心艾滋病患者;后代对我们这一时代的评价主要取决于我们对待艾滋病的反 应。由此可见:对待艾滋病,我们的反应是至关重要的一件事。故选A。
    文章倒数第三段提到,对于艾滋病的治疗对预防艾滋病也颇有益处。
    文章最后一段指出,自从20世纪80年代发现艾滋病到现在,已有两千万人死于该病。 第三篇 本篇文章主要讲述了几种解决讲话时口干问题的方法,提出在演讲之前不能饮酒。告诫大 家改掉坏毛病保护好嗓子。

    B.The result is:0 The result is:16

    C.The result is:8 The result is:0

    D.The result is:0 The result is:8
