Government and health officials are trying to help thousands of sick people there who have all been diagnosed with cholera. It’s an illness caused by a bacteria, and people usually get it from food or water that’s been contaminated. Cholera can be treated. But in severe cases, the disease can be fatal. More than 250 people have died from the recent cholera outbreak in Haiti. Part of the problem is that parts of Haiti haven’t recovered from that massive earthquake back in January. People are still living in tents, and they don’t have access to clean water.
    Health professionals know that they may be at a tipping point with this outbreak. They want to do all they can to contain it They are stepping up the condition at public toilet. They are opening hand centers in order to clean your hands. They are having water deliveries to these areas. They are also having trucks on standby in order to take people throughout the night to hospitals if they feel sick. And they are setting up, as a preventive measure, isolation areas.
    5.What do we know about cholera from the news report?
    6. Why did so many people die recently in Haiti?
    7. What measure was taken to contain the spread of cholera?

选项 A、Because of the massive earthquake.
B、Because of the tough living condition in tents.
C、Because of the outdated medical level.
D、Because of the cholera outbreak.

答案 D

解析 四个选项均以because of开头,可推断本题是问原因。新闻中提到,250多人因海地霍乱爆发而死亡,所以D正确。A利用massive earthquake制造干扰,但新闻中说的地震是在过去的一月发生。B“由于帐篷里恶劣的生活条件”和C“由于落后的医疗水平”均没有在新闻中提到,故排除。
