阅读理解
Shortages of flu vaccine are nothing new in America，but this year’s is a whopper． Until last week， it appeared that 100 million Americans would have access to flu shots this fall．Then British authorities． concerned about quality-control problems at a production plant in Liverpool， barred all further shipments by the Chiron Corp．Overnight，the U．S．vaccine supply dwindled by nearly half and federal health officials found themselves making an unusual plea．Instead of beseeching us all to get vaccinated． they\’re now urging most healthy people between the ages of 2 and 64 not to． “This reemphasizes the fragility of our vaccine supply，\\
1.Shortages of flu vaccine show that ________.(D)
A. America relies too much on foreign suppliers
B. the demand of flu vaccines is high this year
C. quality problem is a serious problem in flu vaccine production
D. the supply of flu vaccines is rather weak and America has no back-up measures to make it up
解析：事实细节题。根据文章第一段最后一句…This reemphasizes the fragility of our vaccine supply，’says Dr．Martin Myers of the National Network for Immunization Information，‘and the lack of redundancy in our system…可知，“这再次凸显出我们疫苗供应的脆弱性，”全国免疫信息网的马丁·迈尔斯医生说，“此外，我们也没有必要的补救机制。”也就是说，流感疫苗的供应相当脆弱，美国没有补充措施，故选D。
2.The word “cleared” (Line 5，Paragraph 3) might mean ________. (A)
A. permitted
B. removed
C. proved
D. produced
解析：语义猜测题。根据文章第三段最后一句“…one culture-based product has been cleared for marketing in Europe”里出现的“cleared”一词，以及根据下文中“marketing”和有关药品上市前应该得到批准的常识，读者可以判断出，该词在本句中的意思是“得到官方的批准”，故选A。
3.Private companies have little interest in producing flu vaccines because of ________. (A)
A. complicated process，high cost，low profit and high risk
B. shortages of fertilized chicken eggs
C. difficulty in growing live virus
D. fast changing of flu virus
解析：事实细节题。根据文章第二段第二句“Mainly because private companies have had little incentive to pursue it”可知，私人公司的生产积极性不高。接下来作者介绍了制作疫苗的复杂工序，由此可以推断出流感疫苗生产工艺复杂且成本高。第二段又明确指出了私企不愿意生产流感疫苗的其他原因：利润率低、需求不稳定。此外由于流感病毒每年都不同，所以生产数量不能过大，由此也可推断出生产的风险性大，如果生产多了就会损失很大，故选A。
4.From the last paragraph we can infer that ________.(B)
A. the government hopes to solve the problem by way of volunteer restrictions
B. more than 47 million Americans who are qualified to get flu vaccine shots call not get them this year
C. America has to deal with a limited supply of flu vaccines this year
D. normally only a small percentage of American population gets flu vaccine shots each year
解析：推理判断题。根据文章第四段第二句“The government estimates that 95 million people still qualify for shots under the voluntary restrictions announced last week”可知，大约有九千五百万人有资格注射疫苗。根据文章第四段第三句“That’s nearly twice the number of doses that clinics will have on hand，but only 60 million Americans seek out shots in a normal year”和前一句可以推断出美国现有大约四千七百万份流感疫苗库存，由此可推断出美国至少还有四千七百多万有资格注射疫苗的人无法得到疫苗的注射，故选B。
5.According to the passage，which of the following is TRUE?(B)
A. All Americans are persuaded not to get vaccinated this year．
B. The big problem in innovating flu vaccine producing technique is how to grow virus in a new way．
C. More flu vaccines call not be produced in a short time because private companies refuse to produce more．
D. Flu vaccines are easier than most vaccines to produce thr
