Part3 阅读过关 五、阅读理解。 James Harrison, Australia's most frequent blood and plasma (血浆) donor known as the “Man with the Golden Arm”, died at 88 on February 17, 2023.Over 60 years, he donated blood and plasma 1,173 times—every two weeks from 1954 to 2018—saving an estimated 2.4 million babies from a serious blood disorder called hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN).This condition occurs when a mother's blood type conflicts with her baby's, causing the mother's immune system to attack the unborn child. Harrison's plasma contained a rare substance called anti-D antibody, discovered in the 1960s, which became essential in preventing HDFN. Harrison's dedication began with a life-changing event:At 14, he needed surgery to remove a lung and received nearly two gallons of donated blood. This inspired him to give back, even though he feared needles.“I wanted to help others like those who saved me,” he said. Starting at 18, he became Australia's first regular anti-D donor, switching to plasma donations after doctors found his rare antibody. His donations created over 3 million anti-D treatments since 1967, helping about 45,000 mothers and babies yearly through a small group of fewer than 200 donors. Though awarded Australia's Medal of the Order in 1999, Harrison stayed humble.“I'm just a donor sitting in a room with snacks,” he told NPR in 2015.His family continued his legacy: His daughter Tracey, who needed anti-D during pregnancy, and grandson Scott, who donated alongside him during his 1,000th session, followed his example. Harrison kept donating even after his wife Barbara's death, stopping only when Australia's rules required donors to retire at 81. At his final donation in 2018, surrounded by mothers holding babies he saved, Harrison said, “I'd keep donating if they allowed me.” His legacy lives on through the “James in a Jar” project by the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute, which aims to create his antibody artificially to prevent HDFN worldwide. Lifeblood CEO Stephen Cornelissen praised Harrison's “kindness, humility, and lifelong mission to save lives”. His story shows how one person's generosity can inspire global change, proving that ordinary actions can achieve extraordinary things. 1.Which of the following best describes James Harrison's character?( ) A.A public figure seeking recognition for his sacrifices. B.A cautious traditionalist resistant to scientific advancements. C.A humble hero driven by selflessness and quiet perseverance. D.A determined innovator who pioneered medical breakthroughs. 2.Why does the author specifically mention Tracey's experience?( ) A.To prove the scientific accuracy of anti-D treatments. B.To explain the biological origins of HDFN in families. C.To criticize the limited availability of anti-D in Australia. D.To emphasize the personal impact of Harrison's donations. 3.What's the main purpose of the “James in a Jar” project?( ) A.To develop new blood donation technologies in Australia. B.To overcome the limited natural supply of Harrison's antibody. C.To reduce the global treatment costs of HDFN. D.To study the genetic causes of HDFN in families. 4.What is the text mainly about?( ) A.The history of blood donation technology in Australia. B.A man whose lifelong donations saved millions of babies. C.The challenges of treating hemolytic disease in newborns. D.The importance of family support in medical research. 六、七选五。 You've sized up the benefits of volunteering, looked over your schedule, and decided you have both the time and the desire to give back to your community. 1.___ Here are some tips to find and get suitable volunteer opportunities in your area — or further afield. Identify your values. 2.___ Make a list of the values that drive you, or the issues you care about, and then look for organizations with complementary(互补的) missions and opportunities. For instance, if your primary motivation is to strengthen social connections with peers, you might look to organizations such as schoolgroups that require interaction with other parents, or neighbors. If you're motivated to serve the less fortunate, you might target organizations that work with housing-insecure populations, people with disabilities or members of historically disadvantaged groups. Motivations for volunteering are as diverse as the volunteers possessing them. 3.___ Try to involve the whole family. Many parents who volunteer turn giving back into a family affair. Community service is a great way to teach kids the value of selflessness. 4.___ Look for volunteer engagements that welcome people of all ages and abilities, and schedule time for the whole family to participate — whether that means spending an afternoon picking up trash on the side of the highway, or a week in a faraway flood zone. 5.___ Once you find a well-run organization that is aligned with(符合) your availability, values, talents, and objectives, work with your contact there to set a volunteer schedule that fits your life. If you're exploring a frequent engagement — say, a weekly or biweekly commitment — think carefully about how much time you can afford to donate. It's better to commit to shorter or less frequent volunteer hours than to take on an unmanageable workload. A.What motivates you to give back? B.Don't bite off more than you can chew. C.Are you ready to build a list of ideal places to volunteer? D.It's also an opportunity to spend more time with your family. E.Don't overthink the process of finding opportunities to volunteer. F.Whatever your motivations are, there's an organization out there that needs your help. G.Now comes the most difficult part: finding volunteer opportunities that are right for you. 七、完形填空。 When I was young, I always asked my mum for medical toy sets.
