1、36. B.      A 選項(xiàng)cause 意為“引起，使發(fā)生”；B 選項(xiàng)raise 意為“喚起，提高”；C 選項(xiàng)result 意為“結(jié)果，導(dǎo)致”；D 選項(xiàng) rise 意為“升起，增長(zhǎng)”。cause 不能和表程度的狀語(yǔ)almost to the point of panic 連用，故排除； result 和rise 均為不及物動(dòng)詞，其后不能跟賓語(yǔ)public concern, 故排除。

37. A.     本文主要講的是艾滋病這種疾病，即disease. 而sickness 是指“患病”這種狀態(tài)。

38. C.     focus 意為“集中，聚焦”，與on 搭配，意為“集中于”。

39. D.    根據(jù)本句句意和結(jié)構(gòu)可知，此處所缺的是引導(dǎo)同位語(yǔ)從句的連詞，先行詞是realization, 故選D.

40. C.     have an effect on … 表示 “對(duì)。。。有影響”。

41. B.      A 選項(xiàng)spend 意思雖然對(duì)，但主語(yǔ)不能是事物（艾滋�。�。B 選項(xiàng)absorb 表示“吸收、占用”；C 選項(xiàng)connect 表示“連接、有聯(lián)系”；D 選項(xiàng)emphasize 表示“強(qiáng)調(diào)”。根據(jù)上下文可推知，艾滋病占用了大量的資金和資源。

42. D.     根據(jù)上下文，第一批10，000個(gè)病人花費(fèi)了14億，全國(guó)的總花費(fèi)是60億。

43. B.     add to 表示“增加”；come to 表示“達(dá)到，共計(jì)”；equal to 表 示“等于，勝任”；sum 常與up 搭配，表示“總計(jì)，概括”。

44. A.      從上文可知，60億的錢(qián)花在了醫(yī)療，（艾滋病導(dǎo)致的）殘疾和喪失勞動(dòng)力上。

45. A.     私營(yíng)保險(xiǎn)公司都愿意為年輕人保險(xiǎn)，因?yàn)樗麄儾蝗菀咨�。但艾滋病卻不同，多數(shù)患者都是年輕人，所以保險(xiǎn)公司沒(méi)有為此危機(jī)做準(zhǔn)備。由此可知，此處應(yīng)為因果關(guān)系。選項(xiàng)A since 表示“因?yàn)椤薄?/p>

46. D.     available 表示“可利用的”；profitable 表示“有利可圖的”；unavoidable 表示“不可避免的”；difficult 表示“困難的”。根據(jù)上下文內(nèi)容可知，私營(yíng)保險(xiǎn)公司都不愿為高危人群提供保險(xiǎn)，所以對(duì)他們來(lái)說(shuō)得到健康和人壽保險(xiǎn)也越來(lái)越難。

47. B.      absence 表示“缺席，缺乏”。根據(jù)上下文可知，私營(yíng)保險(xiǎn)公司會(huì)逐漸退出為高危人群提供保險(xiǎn)，這就會(huì)導(dǎo)致資金缺乏，所以文章接著說(shuō)，必須啟用公共基金。

48. C.     in conclusion 意為“最后，總之”；in fact 意為“事實(shí)上”；in addition 表示“另外，而且”；in short 表示“總而言之”。根據(jù)上下文，上文講到高危人群難于得到保險(xiǎn)，下文講到許多患者被人拒絕，遭受歧視等，二者之間的邏輯關(guān)系應(yīng)為遞進(jìn)關(guān)系，因此C 為正確答案。

49. D.     根據(jù)本句中disapproving or frightened friends and family, without employment 等詞，可以推斷出：很多艾滋病病人并家庭、朋友和社會(huì)拒絕和拋棄，找不到工作。

50. B.     in need of 為固定詞組，意為“需要”。

51. B.      根據(jù)上下文，可知艾滋病人需要（社會(huì)、家庭、朋友等給他們以）精神和心理上的支持.

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

53. D.     上文表示“盡管現(xiàn)在已加速啟動(dòng)了研究項(xiàng)目”，所以下文應(yīng)該是“但是還沒(méi)有突破的跡象”。選項(xiàng)A 表示“希望”；選項(xiàng)B 表示“信號(hào)”；選項(xiàng)C 表示“見(jiàn)到”；只有選項(xiàng)D 表示“跡象”。

54. D.     選項(xiàng)A 表示“感興趣的”；選項(xiàng)B 表示“觀察，遵守”；選項(xiàng) C 表示“研究，學(xué)習(xí)”；選項(xiàng)D 表示“牽涉，涉及”。根據(jù)上下文意思可知，只有D 符合題意，即“其他沒(méi)有直接參與的人可以通過(guò)支持用于研究、醫(yī)院和服務(wù)機(jī)構(gòu)的公共基金來(lái)提供幫助�！�

55. B.      上一句說(shuō)到“希望其他沒(méi)有直接參與的人可以通過(guò)支持用于研究、醫(yī)院和服務(wù)機(jī)構(gòu)的公共基金來(lái)提供幫助”，這可以看作是一個(gè)號(hào)召，所以本句“公眾愿意提供關(guān)愛(ài)并為那些受難的人最終找到治愈方法的決心”應(yīng)該對(duì)這個(gè)號(hào)召作出的“最好的響應(yīng)”。選項(xiàng)A 表示“回答”。選項(xiàng)C 表示“鑰匙，答案”；選項(xiàng)D 表示“運(yùn)動(dòng)，活動(dòng)”。
