20.Thanks to modern technologies,we now have the solutions to most eyesight problems.Doctors can use different treatments-PRK,Lasik (鐳射視力矯正術(shù)),Lasek and Intraocular
Lenses-to solve all types of eyesight problems while limiting the side effects.People believe eye operations are about as safe and effective as surgery (外科手術(shù)) can be.However,for an industry that promises clearness,many hospitals have kept their patients in the dark about the risks and realities.Governments are of no help either as there are no limits to who can buy medical instruments.
Despite a good record of the surgery,thousands of people around the world suffer from an eye operation that goes wrong.The consumer-advocate website surgicaleyes.com posts an astonishing series of unhappy endings-infected corneas(角膜),triple vision (三重視覺) and permanently damaged eyesight.The message boards are full of people who came out of Lasik with far better vision but still in great unhappiness,affected by poor night vision,dry eyes and worse.It's vital to research the subject if you're considering surgery.Here's a guide to help you see things clearly.
Know what you're getting into.If you believe all the ads,after eye surgery,you'll be able to read the bottom line of an eye chart through a brick wall.If only it were true.You may not end up with a vision as good as is promised.Besides,eye surgery still isn't fit for people with certain severe vision problems or an eye disease.The same goes for children under 18and pregnant women,whose eyes may be experiencing changes.So don't be shocked if a doctor gazes into your eyes and shows you the door.Finally,be prepared for side effect.Some complain of dry eyes and require eye drops known as artificial tears for months.Others see light circles and star bursts while driving at night.Fortunately such symptoms tend to be minor and fade away.
Find a doctor.Ask friends for recommendations or look for one on the Internet.Whatever you do,don't make a decision on a rock-bottom price.You have only one set of eyes.
Ask the doctor right questions:Who will be doing the operation?Being easily available and open communication with the doctor and his team are typical features of a good practice.What are your qualification certificates'?How much experience do you have?What's your complication rate(并發(fā)癥比率)?The best doctors have a serious surgical complication rate below 1percent.Beware of doctors who can't answer these questions.Finally,what's included in the price?Watch out for hospitals that offer a low price and then charge for extras for later visits.

分析 本文主要講述了利用現(xiàn)代醫(yī)療技術(shù),醫(yī)生可以利用不同的器械和方法治療人們的近視和眼疾問題.
解答 12.:C 細節(jié)題.結(jié)合第一段第二句"Doctors can use different treatments-PRK,Lasik(鐳射視力矯正術(shù)),Lasek and Intraocular Lenses-to solve all types of eyesight problems while limiting the side effects."可知,醫(yī)生可以解決各類視力問題但是會有副作用限制,A項"沒有任何副作用"與原文不符,所以A項錯誤;結(jié)合第一段第三句"People believe eye operations are about as safe and effective as surgery(外科手術(shù)) can be."可知,人們相信眼部手術(shù)和外科手術(shù)一樣安全有效,B項"人們很擔心眼部手術(shù)的安全性與影響"與原文不符,所以B項錯誤;結(jié)合第一段第四句"many hospitals have kept their patients in the dark about the risks and realities"可知,許多醫(yī)院不把手術(shù)的真實情況與風險性告訴患者,C項"一些醫(yī)院不告訴患者關(guān)于眼部手術(shù)的所有實情"與原文相符,所以C項正確;結(jié)合第一段最后一句"Governments are of no help either as there are no limits to who can buy medical instruments"可知,政府對于買醫(yī)療器械的人沒有幫助也沒有限制,D項"政府現(xiàn)在不關(guān)心誰能買醫(yī)療器械"文中未直接表明,所以D項錯誤.故正確答案為C.
13.:A 推斷題.結(jié)合第二段第二、三句"an astonishing series of unhappy endings-infected corneas(角膜),triple vision(三重視覺) and permanently damaged eyesight.The message boards are full of people who came out of Lasik with far better vision but still in great unhappiness,affected by poor night vision,dry eyes and worse"可知,眼部手術(shù)可能會導致角膜感染,三重視覺或者視力永久性損傷,網(wǎng)站留言板是全都是經(jīng)過鐳射視力矯正術(shù),影響使夜間視力變差眼睛更干的人,由此可推知這個網(wǎng)站上的信息展示了眼部手術(shù)具有很高的風險性,所以A項"眼部手術(shù)的風險性比我們想象的要高"符合題意.B項"越來越多人開始做眼部手術(shù)";C項"眼部手術(shù)不能為人們帶來真正的幸福";D項"互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上很多關(guān)于眼部手術(shù)的信息都是錯誤的",均偏離該段主題,不符合題意.故正確答案為A.
14.:B 推斷題.結(jié)合第三段第五、六句"Besides,eye surgery still isn't fit for people with certain severe vision problems or an eye disease.The same goes for children under 18 and pregnant women,whose eyes may be experiencing changes."可知,眼部手術(shù)不是適合所有人,視力有嚴重問題的、眼睛有疾病、18歲以下兒童、懷孕的女人都不可以做眼部手術(shù).所以劃線處所在句子表達"當醫(yī)生盯著你眼睛請你出去的時候不要驚訝,因為你不適合眼部手術(shù)"之意,B項"將不會讓你做眼部手術(shù)"符合文意.A項"向你展示如何進入手術(shù)室";C項"用門上的視力表測你的視力";D項"讓你打開門并請下一位患者進來",均不符合語境.故正確答案為B.
15.:C 細節(jié)題.結(jié)合倒數(shù)第二段第二句"Whatever you do,don't make a decision on a rock-bottom price."可知不能決定做最低的價格的手術(shù),A項"提供低價手術(shù)的醫(yī)生"與原文不符,所以A項錯誤;結(jié)合最后一段倒數(shù)第四句"The best doctors have a serious surgical complication rate below 1 percent."可知最好的醫(yī)生手術(shù)并發(fā)癥率應該小于百分之1,B項"手術(shù)并發(fā)癥率高的醫(yī)生"與原文不符,所以B項錯誤;結(jié)合最后一段第二句"Being easily available and open communication with the doctor and his team are typical features of a good practice."可知易于與病人交流并且他的團隊有良好實踐經(jīng)驗的典型特征的醫(yī)生適合做眼部手術(shù),C項"愿意與病人交流的醫(yī)生"符合文意,所以C項正確;D項"在大醫(yī)院工作的醫(yī)生",文中未提到,所以D項錯誤.故正確答案為C.
