共享题干题 （三）First Sell-contained Heart Implanted 回答下列的问题。 A patient on the brink of death has received the world's first self-contained artificial heart-a battery-powered device about the size of a softball that runs without the need for wires, tubes or hoses sticking out of the chest. Two surgeons from the University of Louisville implanted the titanium and plastic pump during a seven-hour operation at Jewish Hospital Monday. The hospital said the patient was "awake and responsive" Tuesday and resting comfortably. It refused to release personal details. The patient had been expected to die within a month without the operation, and doctors said they expected the artificial heart to extend the person's life by only a month. But the device is considered a major step toward improving the patient's quality of life.The new pump, called AbioCor, is also a technological leap from the mechanical hearts used in the 1980s, which were attached by wires and tubes to bulky machinery outside the body. The most famous of those, the Jarvic-7, used air as a pumping device and was attached to an apparatus about the size of a washing machine. "I think it's potentially a major step forward in the artificial heart development," said Dr. David Faxon, president of the American heart Association. However, he said the dream of an implantable, permanent artificial heart is not yet a reality: "This is obviously an experimental device whose long-term success has to be demonstrated." Only about half of the 4,200 Americans on a waiting list for donor hearts received them last year, and most of the rest died. Some doctors, including Robert Higgins, chairman of cardiology at the Medical College of Virginia in Richmond, said artificial hearts are likely to replace donor hears." A donor heart in a good transplant can last 15 to 30 years," he said. "It's going to be hard to replace that with a machine."1.[不定向选择题]It can be inferred from the passage that donor hearts__________A.will be replaced by self-contained artificial hearts sooner or later B.are more popular and cheaper than self-contained artificial hearts C.saved the lives of about 2,100 Americans the year before the report D.can help patients survive less than 15 years if they are in good transplant 2.[不定向选择题]According to the report, patient who received the first self-contained heart__________A.was said to be in a good condition the next day after operation B.could not afford a donor heart C.died two months after the heart implantation D.was reluctant to release his or her personal information

1.参考答案：A
参考解析：文章最后一段最后一句，“Some doctors，including Robert Higgins，chairman of cardiology at the Medical College of Virginia in Richmond，said artificial hearts are likely to replace donor hears．”包括一些比较权威的人都说人造心脏有可能取代捐献的心脏。
2.参考答案：A
参考解析：根据第二段第二句话，“The hospital said the patient was “awake and responsive” Tuesday and resting comfortably．”可知，医院说这个病人在周二是“清醒和有反应的”，并且很舒服地休息了。同时，手术在周一进行，因此选择A选项。3.[不定向选择题]The first two paragraphs tell that the sell-contained artificial heart__________A.had brought the patient to the brink of death B.did not need to get power from outside the body C.was made of titanium and pump D.was invented by two surgeons from the University of Louisville
