1、36. B.      A 选项cause 意为“引起,使发生”;B 选项raise 意为“唤起,提高”;C 选项result 意为“结果,导致”;D 选项 rise 意为“升起,增长”。cause 不能和表程度的状语almost to the point of panic 连用,故排除; result 和rise 均为不及物动词,其后不能跟宾语public concern, 故排除。

37. A.     本文主要讲的是艾滋病这种疾病,即disease. 而sickness 是指“患病”这种状态。

38. C.     focus 意为“集中,聚焦”,与on 搭配,意为“集中于”。

39. D.    根据本句句意和结构可知,此处所缺的是引导同位语从句的连词,先行词是realization, 故选D.

40. C.     have an effect on … 表示 “对。。。有影响”。

41. B.      A 选项spend 意思虽然对,但主语不能是事物(艾滋病)。B 选项absorb 表示“吸收、占用”;C 选项connect 表示“连接、有联系”;D 选项emphasize 表示“强调”。根据上下文可推知,艾滋病占用了大量的资金和资源。

42. D.     根据上下文,第一批10,000个病人花费了14亿,全国的总花费是60亿。

43. B.     add to 表示“增加”;come to 表示“达到,共计”;equal to 表 示“等于,胜任”;sum 常与up 搭配,表示“总计,概括”。

44. A.      从上文可知,60亿的钱花在了医疗,(艾滋病导致的)残疾和丧失劳动力上。

45. A.     私营保险公司都愿意为年轻人保险,因为他们不容易生病。但艾滋病却不同,多数患者都是年轻人,所以保险公司没有为此危机做准备。由此可知,此处应为因果关系。选项A since 表示“因为”。

46. D.     available 表示“可利用的”;profitable 表示“有利可图的”;unavoidable 表示“不可避免的”;difficult 表示“困难的”。根据上下文内容可知,私营保险公司都不愿为高危人群提供保险,所以对他们来说得到健康和人寿保险也越来越难。

47. B.      absence 表示“缺席,缺乏”。根据上下文可知,私营保险公司会逐渐退出为高危人群提供保险,这就会导致资金缺乏,所以文章接着说,必须启用公共基金。

48. C.     in conclusion 意为“最后,总之”;in fact 意为“事实上”;in addition 表示“另外,而且”;in short 表示“总而言之”。根据上下文,上文讲到高危人群难于得到保险,下文讲到许多患者被人拒绝,遭受歧视等,二者之间的逻辑关系应为递进关系,因此C 为正确答案。

49. D.     根据本句中disapproving or frightened friends and family, without employment 等词,可以推断出:很多艾滋病病人并家庭、朋友和社会拒绝和抛弃,找不到工作。

50. B.     in need of 为固定词组,意为“需要”。

51. B.      根据上下文,可知艾滋病人需要(社会、家庭、朋友等给他们以)精神和心理上的支持.

52. D.    field , area, 和world 通常与in 搭配,只有front 可与on 搭配,表示“在…. . 前沿”。

53. D.     上文表示“尽管现在已加速启动了研究项目”,所以下文应该是“但是还没有突破的迹象”。选项A 表示“希望”;选项B 表示“信号”;选项C 表示“见到”;只有选项D 表示“迹象”。

54. D.     选项A 表示“感兴趣的”;选项B 表示“观察,遵守”;选项 C 表示“研究,学习”;选项D 表示“牵涉,涉及”。根据上下文意思可知,只有D 符合题意,即“其他没有直接参与的人可以通过支持用于研究、医院和服务机构的公共基金来提供帮助。”

55. B.      上一句说到“希望其他没有直接参与的人可以通过支持用于研究、医院和服务机构的公共基金来提供帮助”,这可以看作是一个号召,所以本句“公众愿意提供关爱并为那些受难的人最终找到治愈方法的决心”应该对这个号召作出的“最好的响应”。选项A 表示“回答”。选项C 表示“钥匙,答案”;选项D 表示“运动,活动”。
