句意:威尔的Isobar为他赢得了一个鼓励年轻人设计物品来解决问题的戴森设计大奖。

allows 允许;encourages鼓励;increases 增加 forces 强迫。根据句子结构,此句是一个定语从句,先行词James Dyson Award,结合常识可知,戴森设计大奖是为了鼓励年轻人设计物品来解决问题,从句是在陈述一件客观事实,且Award是单数形式,所以空格处填encourages。故选B

【题目】 Cabin hospitals save more lives

Feng Bangli, from Wuhan, Hubei, began to have a fever at the end of January and suspected that he had been infected with the virus. He tried several times to be admitted to a hospital but failed. He finally gave up and stayed at home, taking drugs given by doctors.

“At that time, too many patients were waiting to see doctors at every hospital, and it was not possible for me to get a bed,” said Feng. Days later, with the community staff’s help, Feng tested positive for COVID-19 and was sent to a makeshift hospital (临时医院) for treatment.

“Without such makeshift hospitals, many COVID-19 patients like me may never have found a bed,” said Feng.

Like Feng, over 12,000 COVID-19 patients in Wuhan received treatment and care at 15 makeshift hospitals. These hospitals were mainly used to receive patients with mild symptoms (轻症).

“Building makeshift hospitals was a key decision made in such an important moment when Wuhan was facing a formidable task of epidemic (疫情) control, and it has played an important role in both prevention and treatment of the disease,” he said.

“Makeshift hospitals have greatly eased pressure and made it possible to treat and isolate people in need,” said Xu Junmei, vice-president of Wuchang makeshift hospital.

Makeshift hospitals have now been copied in other countries. Eight makeshift hospitals are being built in Tehran, Iran, to fight against the virus. The one changed from the Iran Mall, the largest shopping mall in the country, is expected to have a total of 3,000 beds, according to People’s Daily.

On March 29, New York changed a grassy meadow in Central Park into a makeshift hospital, where it will provide 68 hospital beds.

“Considering the ways we can increase hospital capacity right now is very important,” says Dr Andrew Ibrahim, a surgeon at the University of Michigan told Architecture. “If hospitals can’t receive more patients, new facilities need to be built up.”

1What does the writer want to tell us by using Feng Bangli’s example?

A.COVID-19 has infected a large number of people in a very short time.

B.Hospitals should always be prepared for any unexpected situations.

C.The COVID-19 outbreak happened suddenly without the slightest warning.

D.Makeshift hospitals have played an important role in the fight against COVID-19.

2What does the underlined word “formidable” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

A.newB.basicC.toughD.strange

3What did Dr Andrew Ibrahim think of Tehran’s and New York’s new makeshift hospitals?

A.They wasted resources.B.They were greatly helpful.

C.They were not practical.D.They would not be as useful as China’s.

4What is the main purpose of the article?

A.To praise China’s quick response to the COVID-19 outbreak.

B.To call on other countries to copy China’s method of fighting the virus.

C.To show the value of building makeshift hospitals to fight COVID-19.

D.To compare the measures different countries have taken to deal with COVID-19.
