Scientists Develop Ways of Detecting Heart Attack
German researchers have come up with a new generation of defibrillators（除颤器）and early-warning
software aimed at offering heart patients greater________ (51)from sudden death from cardiac arrest（心脏
停搏）.
In Germany alone,around 100,000 people die annually________(52)a result of cardiac arrest and
many of these cases are caused by disruption to the heart's rhythm.Those most at________(53)are pa-
tients who have already suffered a heart attack,and for years the use of defibrillators has proved useful in
________(54)life-threatening disruptions to heart rhythms and correcting them automatically by intervening
within seconds.These devices________(55)on a range of functions,such as that of pacemaker（起
搏器）.
Heart specialists at Freiburg's University Clinic have now achieved a breakthrough with an implanted
defibrillator________(56 ) of generating a six-channel electrocardiogram ( EGG，心电图）within the body.
This integrated system allows _________( 57 ) diagnosis of severe blood-flow problems and a pending（即将发
生的）heart attack. It will be implanted in _________( 58 ) for the first time this year. Meanwhile , research-
ers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Mathematics in Kaiserslautern have developed new computer soft-
ware that________(59)the evaluation of EGG data more precise.
The overwhelming majority of patients at risk will not have an implanted defibrillator and must for this
________(60)undergo regular EGGs."Many of the current programs only take into________(61)a line-
ar correlation of the data. We are,however,making use in a non-linear process________(62)reveals the
chaotic patterns of heart beats as an open and complex system,"Hagen Knaf says,"In this way changes in
the heart________(63)over time can be monitored and individual variations in patients taken into ac-
count."An old study of EGG data,based upon 600 patients who had________(64)a subsequent heart
attack,enabled the researchers to compare risks and to show that the new software evaluates the________
(65)considerably better. _________(65)
参考答案: D
参考解析: Protection from意思是“保护……免受（伤害）"，符合句意。service服务，服侍；discount 折扣，打折；advice建议，忠告。
as a result of意思是“作为……的结果”，符合句意。
考查与at搭配的介词短语。at risk意思是“有危险”，符合句意。at last最后，最终；at all用于否定句，表示“根本，究竟”;at once马上，立刻。
该句是由and连接的并列句，由and后面的correcting可知空格处要填动词的-ing形式。 diagnose意思是“诊断”，符合句意。lead领导；cause产生，导致；repeat重复，反复。
take on表示“承担”，符合句意。put on穿上，上演；go on继续；keep on继续，穿着……不脱。
Capable of doing sth．意思是“有能力做某事”，符合句意。其他三个选项后面都不能跟动词-ing形式。worthy of值得，配得上；full of装满；Proud of为……而感到骄傲。
early意思是“早期的，初期的”，符合句意。该句意思是：这一相互协调的系统可以对严重的血液流通问题和即将发生的心脏病做早期诊断。
文章讲的对象一直是病人，根据句意被植入除颤器的对象一定是Patients（病人）。
该句意思是：研究者研发了一种新的电脑软件可以使心电图数据评估更精确。make有“使，让”的意思，符合句意。
for this reason意思是“为此，由于这个原因”，符合句意。purpose 目的，用途；treatment治疗，疗法；处理，对待；chance机会，机遇。
take into account固定搭配，意思是“把……考虑在内，重视”，符合句意。
这里需要一个引导词来引导宾语从句，只有that符合。
heart beats意思是“心脏跳动”，前面一句已经提到。
suffer意思是“遭受，忍受”，符合句意。launch发射（导弹、火箭等）；发起，发动；avoid避免；start开始。
第59题讲过新的计算机软件系统能更好地评估心电图数据（data)，故选D。
