Influenza
Influenza has been with us a long time. According 1 some Greek writers on medical history, the outbreak of 412 B. C. was of influenza. The same has been suggested of the sickness that swept through the Greek army2 Syracuse in 395 B. C. Flu is a disease that moves most quickly among people 3 in crowded conditions, hence, it is likely to attack armies.
During the nineteenth century there were five widespread4of influenza. The last of the five 5 in 1889 and marked the beginning of the story of influenza in our time. Like the recent outbreak,6started in Asia.
For more than forty years before that outbreak, influenza had steadily7and was believed to be dying out. A new group of outbreaks was introduced by the great outbreak of 1889-1890 and for the next quarter of a century flu8a constant threat.
In April 1918 flu broke out among American troops stationed in France. It quickly spread through all the armies but caused relatively9deaths. Four months later,10, a second outbreak started which proved to be a killer. It killed not only the old and already sick but also 11 young adults. It went through every country in the world, only a few distant islands in the South Atlantic and the Pacific remaining 12. It brought the life of whole countries 13, food supplies stopped and work loss was very great. Before the great outbreak ended, it 14at least 15 million people.
Thereafter there have been several great outbreaks throughout the world. It is thus 15 that influenza is a terrible infection that we have to pay more attention to.

2017年職稱英語試題《衛(wèi)生C》完形填空專項練習題答案解析
1.B。四個選項中只有to可以與according連用,意為“根據(jù),按照”,與上下文意思吻合。
2.D。四個選項中只有attacking合適。attack是及物動詞,用它的現(xiàn)在分詞做army的定語,后面還帶有它的賓語Syracuse,其他三個選項都表示被動的意思,不僅在語法上無法使用,意思上也說不通。
3.c。從語法上看,四個選項都可以使用,但從意思上分析,只有C項最符合邏輯,最恰當。
4.A。四個選項中,B、C、D的意思分別為“(小)事件”、“(意外)事故”和“病例,案例”,顯然不符合上下文意思,只有A項(爆發(fā))恰當。
5.B。四個選項中A、C、D的意思分別為“改變,變化”、“上升,升高”和“下降”,均與上下文意思不符,只有B項(發(fā)生)恰當。
6.A。上面說道:“這五次大爆發(fā)中的最后一次出現(xiàn)于l889年……像最近一次大爆發(fā)一樣,它起源于亞洲”。此空白處從語法上分析,應該是一個代替那次爆發(fā)的代詞,it是最恰當?shù)?用which就不恰當,因為這里不可能是一個非限制性定語從句,況且which是指the recent outbreak還是指the last ofthe five也不明確,因此絕對不能用which。
7.C。從上下文意思看,尤其是空格后面所說的“被認為正在消失”,因此此處只能是逐步“減少”的意思,絕不能是“擴大”、“加強”、“增加”等其他意思。
8.D。本空白處前面說道:“1889--1990年的那次大爆發(fā)引發(fā)了一批新的大爆發(fā)”,顯然后面應該接著說“此后四分之一世紀里流感的威脅仍然持久不斷”,也就是選項D的意思,其他三個選項意思都相反。
9.A?;卮疬@道題時,首先要注意but這個表示轉折的連接詞的存在,也就是說它提示了應該選擇few這個選項,其他三個選項意思都相反。few deaths意思是“死的人不多”。
10.B。上面說道:“上次爆發(fā)死的人不多”,后面說道:“這一次可是一個殺手”,可見這個空白處應該是一個表示轉折的插入語,四個選項中只有B是表示轉折的,其他三個選項不是表示“遞進”(A、D)就是表示“因果”(C)的。
11.D。從本空白處的句子中完全可以猜出答案應該是healthy,因為not onty…but also可以起到很明顯的提示作用,前面說0ld and sick,后面自然是young and healthy。
12.C。從前后文可以很容易猜到,只有少數(shù)地方幸免于難,因此只有選項C合適,其他三項都不恰當。
13.D?;卮疬@道題時涉及一個詞組的用法:bring sb./sth.to do sth.,意思是“促使……去做……”。
14.C。本句的意思是“在這次大爆發(fā)之前,它已經(jīng)殺死了最少1500萬人”。語法上,在這樣的句子中,主句謂語必須用過去完成時,用以表示“過去的過去”。即“在……之前已經(jīng)……”,因此其他選項均不合適。
15.A。從上下文看,只有clear才恰當,其他三項的意思在這里都不合適。It is thus clear that…是一個很常見的組合,意思是“由此可見……”或“因此,很明顯……”。
