At least 1,000 donors are needed each day for the next several days to stabilize the supply, said Mark Lynch, spokesman for the Central Blood Bank.

E) receives J) stable O) provides [br] 【C3】
选项
答案
I
解析
圈空格前是can be safely,空格后是to most people in an emergency,可以断定空格处需填一个动词的过去分词,表被动。备选项中的过去分词只有transfused,意为“输送”。故选I。
