We rushed out the door. Jonathan, our youngest, was   39   to make trouble. “If he’s making holes in the wall again…” I said as I searched there. No   40  at all. But there was that   41   again, coming from right up there.

“Yeah,” I said. “But how many knocks on the head did it   54   him?”

I’ve thought about that little sparrow through the years. Just like that sparrow, we often meet situations, we don’t know how to   55   . Born to go upward, we don’t even consider the possibility that something good might happen if we stop flapping(拍打)around and just glide down a little bit.

第三部分  阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)

第一节 (共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)

A

An Australian man who has been donating his extremely rare kind of blood for 56 years has saved the lives of more than two million babies.

James Harrison has an antibody in his plasma(血浆) that stops babies dying from Rhesus disease, a form of severe anaemia. He has enabled countless mothers to give birth to healthy babies, including his own daughter, Tracey, who had a healthy son thanks to her father's blood.

Mr. Harrison has been giving blood every few weeks since he was 18 years old and has now racked up a total of 984 donations. When he started donating, his blood was deemed so special that his life was insured for one million Australian dollars.

He was also nicknamed the “man with the golden arm” or the “man in two million”. He said, “I've never thought about stopping. Never!” He made a pledge to be a donor aged 14 after undergoing major chest surgery in which he needed 13 liters of blood. “I was in hospital for three months,” he said. “The blood I received saved my life so I made a pledge to give blood when I was 18.”

Just after he started donating he was found to have the rare and life-saving antibody in his blood. At the time, thousands of babies in Australia were dying each year of Rhesus disease. Other newborns suffered permanent brain damage because of the condition. The disease creates an incompatibility between the mother's blood and her unborn baby's blood. It stems from one having Rh-positive blood and the other Rh-negative.

His blood has since led to the development of a vaccine called Anti-D. After his blood type was discovered, Mr. Harrison volunteered to undergo a series of tests to help develop the Anti-D vaccine. “They insured me for a million dollars so I knew my wife Barbara would be taken care of,” he said. “I wasn't scared. I was glad to help. I had to sign every form going and basically sign my life away.”

Mr. Harrison is Rh-negative and was given injections of Rh-positive blood. It was found his plasma could treat the condition and since then it has been given to hundreds of thousands of women. It has also been given to babies after they are born to stop them developing the disease.

It is estimated he has helped save 2.2 million babies so far. Mr. Harrison is still donating every few weeks now.

56. What does the underlined phrase “two million” refer to?

A. babies   B. mothers    C. dollars   D. blood

57. Why did James decide to donate his blood? Because _____.

A. his daughter asked him to help her son

B. he has a golden arm worth a million dollars

C. a vaccine called Anti-D is to be developed

D. someone else’s blood saved his life

58. The sentence “The disease creates an incompatibility between the mother's blood and her unborn baby's blood” (underlined in Paragraph 5) suggests that _____.

A. babies suffer permanent brain damage before born

B. the mother and the baby have different types of blood

C. Rhesus disease contributes to permanent brain damage

D. all the patients have a rare antibody in their blood

59. What can we infer from the sixth paragraph?

A. Some of the tests to develop the vaccine are dangerous.

B. His wife Barbara needed to be taken care of badly then.

C. Mr. Harrison was glad to help develop a new vaccine.

D. His blood type was accidentally discovered after tests.
