4、ygen to organs. Without oxygen the brain is damaging quickly.Amazingly, Taylor had just taken a CPR course the day before. Still, she hesitated. She didnt think she knew it well enough.

15、ach year and disabled even more, was nearly wiped out in the United States 14 years ago by the universal use of the MMR vaccine(疫苗). But the disease is making a comeback, caused by a growing anti-vaccine movement and misinformation that is spreading quickly. Already this year, 115 measles cases have
16、 been reported in the USA, compared with 189 for all of last year.The numbers might sound small, but they are the leading edge of a dangerous trend. When vaccination rates are very high, as they still are in the nation as a whole, everyone is protected. This is called “herd immunity”, which protects
17、 the people who get hurt easily, including those who cant be vaccinated for medical reasons, babies too young to get vaccinated and people on whom the vaccine doesnt work.But herd immunity works only when nearly the whole herd joins in. When some refuse vaccination and seek a free ride, immunity bre
18、aks down and everyone is in even bigger danger.Thats exactly what is happening in small neighborhoods around the country from Orange County, California, where 22 measles cases were reported this month, to Brooklyn, N.Y., where a 17-year-old caused an outbreak last year.The resistance to vaccine has
19、continued for decades, and it is driven by a real but very small risk. Those who refuse to take that risk selfishly make others suffer.Making things worse are state laws that make it too easy to opt out(决定不参加) of what are supposed to be required vaccines for all children entering kindergarten. Seven
20、teen states allow parents to get an exemption(豁免), sometimes just by signing a paper saying they personally object to a vaccine.Now, several states are moving to tighten laws by adding new regulations for opting out. But no one does enough to limit exemptions.Parents ought to be able to opt out only
21、 for limited medical or religious reasons. But personal opinions? Not good enough. Everyone enjoys the life-saving benefits vaccines provide, but theyll exist only as long as everyone shares in the risks.63The first two paragraphs suggest that _.Aa small number of measles cases can start a dangerous
22、 trendBthe outbreak of measles attracts the public attention Canti-vaccine movement has its medical reasonsDinformation about measles spreads quickly64Herd immunity works well when _.Aexemptions are allowed Bseveral vaccines are used togetherCthe whole neighborhood is involved in Dnew regulations ar
23、e added to the state laws65What is the main reason for the comeback of measles?AThe overuse of vaccine. BThe lack of medical care.CThe features of measles itself. DThe vaccine opt-outs of some people.66What is the purpose of the passage?ATo introduce the idea of exemption. BTo discuss methods to cur
24、e measles.CTo stress the importance of vaccination. DTo appeal for equal rights in medical treatment.完型Hannah Taylor is a schoolgirl from Manitoba, Canada. One day, when she was five years old, she was walking with her mother in downtown Winnipeg. They saw a man 36 out of a garbage can. She asked he

More recently, the foundation began another 47 called National Red Scarf Daya day when people donate $20 and wear red scarves in support of Canadas 48 and homeless.There is an emergency shelter in Winnipeg called “
30、Hannahs Place”, something that Hannah is very 49 of. Hannahs Place is divided into several areas, providing shelter for people when it is so cold that 50 outdoors can mean death.
