第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Imagine that you are in a remote village somewhere with no medical clinic.  16  Once the doctors get to you, they examine you and take blood samples, but they won't be able to help you until they take the samples back to the hospital to find out what is wrong.  17 Thanks to engineer Andy Ozcan, many people may never be in this situation. He has invented an app that turns your mobile phone into a diagnostic(诊断的) tool. 
Ozcan's invention is important because it is very accurate and easy to use. In many remote places, even if doctors have microscopes and other instruments to help them make diagnoses, there may still be other problems. Many doctors, for example, don't have enough training to accurately interpret what they see.  18  With Ozcan's mobile phone app, health workers can take a special photo of a blood sample and send it to a central computer at the hospital. The computer will then automatically interpret the photo and send a diagnosis back in a few minutes.  
 19  His technology only requires a mobile phone and an Internet connection. As more than four billion people already have cell phones, the cost of establishing the diagnostic system is fairly low. 
By inventing a medical tool that uses existing technology, Ozcan has developed a medical tool that is both practical and economical. Therefore, it can be effectively applied almost anywhere.  20  
A.As a result, they may diagnose illnesses incorrectly.
B.People are trying to reduce the cost of this new medical tool.
C.This tool has become much more popular all around the world.
D.Another reason why Ozcan's invention is important is that it is inexpensive.
E.Ozcan's simple and effective tool might just save millions of lives around the world.
F.Even though you may only have a simple infection, you might die because of the delay.
G.You become very sick and must wait for days until a mobile medical unit arrives to help you.

第二节
 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Andy Ozcan发明的一种能将手机变成一种诊断工具的应用程序。这款应用程序很精确并易于使用。这种经济又实用的医疗工具可以在世界上任何有网络的地方使用,能拯救全世界数百万人的生命。
16.G 根据上句...you are in a remote village somewhere with no medical clinic.可知你在一个偏僻的村庄,没有医疗诊所,以及下文Once the doctors get to you, they examine you and take blood samples, but they won't be able to help you until they take the samples back to the hospital to find out what is wrong.可知一旦医生找到你,他们会给你检查并取血样,但是直到他们把血样带回医院,找到问题所在,他们才能帮助你,由此可推断出设空处应表示如果生病了,要等上几天才能等到移动医疗小组来看病。故选G。
17.F 根据上文Once the doctors get to you, they examine you and take blood samples, but they won't be able to help you until they take the samples back to the hospital to find out what is wrong.可知一旦医生找到你,他们会给你检查并取血样,但是直到他们把血样带回医院,找到问题所在,他们才能帮助你,由此可推断出设空处应表示即使只是简单的感染,可能也会因为耽搁而导致死亡。故选F。
18.A 根据上文In many remote places...there may still be other problems. Many doctors, for example, don't have enough training to accurately interpret what they see.可知在许多偏远的地方,即使医生有仪器帮忙,仍然会出现其他问题。例如,许多医生没有接受过足够的培训来正确解释他们所看到的,由此可判断出这样可能会出现误诊。故选A。
19.D 该空设于段首,为主题句。根据第二段讲的是Ozcan的发明很重要的一个原因,猜测该段会讲第二个原因,并且根据后文His technology only requires a mobile phone and an Internet connection.以及the cost...is fairly low可知本段讲的就是这一发明很重要的另一个原因,故选D。
20.E 根据上文...Ozcan has developed a medical tool that is both practical and economical. Therefore, it can be effectively applied almost anywhere.可知Ozcan研制出一种经济实用的医疗工具。因此,它几乎可以有效地应用于任何地方,由此可推断出这种简单有效的工具可能会拯救全世界数百万人的生命,故选E。
