A 22-year-old British student has invented(发明) a mobile fridge, “Isobar”, which could save millions of lives in the world.

Will Broadway’s “Isobar” has been designed to k1 vaccines(疫苗) at the ideal temperature while they are being sent in developing countries. And Will doesn’t plan to make money from his creation. His p2 is to get vaccines to people who need them, which is why he won’t be trying to get a patent(专利). Will’s Isobar has w3 him the James Dyson Award that challenges young people to design something that solves a problem.

Present m4 of transporting vaccines can lead to the vaccines freezing(冻住) before reaching their places in developing countries, b5 the Isobar keeps a temperature of 2 to 8 degrees for 30 days.

Will’s invention is expected to save the lives of 1.5 million people a6 the world. After finishing college education, he is making an effort to take the Isobar into production. “I will be hands-on, all the way through it, and make sure that it w7, ” he says.

The product has been designed to transport vaccines, but already Will sees the possibility for other m8 uses in the developing world and beyond. “Blood donations, organ transplants(器官移植)if they get trapped in t9, you still use cold-bags that really aren’t good enough for a long time, ” he says.

There is also a possible, non-medical use for the Isobar. “It would be a great thing to take on a five-day trip w10 you have no power,” he says. But he insists vaccine transportation is the primary function (功能) of his invention.

【解析】

本篇介绍英国学生威尔发明了移动冰箱,但他不用来申请专利挣钱而是用于医疗运输;他还发现了移动冰箱的其它医疗用途,比如血液和器官移植的运输。

1句意:Will Broadway’s的移动冰箱被设计用来在发展中国家送疫苗时将其保持在理想温度。

根据常识,疫苗在运输过程中要保持理想的温度;根据首字母提示,keep 意为保持,为keep …at ideal temperature意为“保持……在理想的温度;故答案为 keep

2句意:他的目的是给需要疫苗的人接种疫苗,这是所以他不想申请专利的原因。

根据下文which is why he won’t be trying to get a patent是非限定性定语从句,补充说明了他发明移动冰箱的目的不是专利而是给需要疫苗的人接种疫苗;根据首字母提示,purpose 意为目的,故答案为purpose

3句意:威尔的Isobar为他赢得了詹姆斯戴森奖,这个奖项是考察年轻人设计出解决问题的东西的能力。

根据文字的表层意思推断,空格指获得奖项;根据首字母提示,win 意为赢得,获得,由空格前的has提示,空格用过去分词,构成现在完成时做谓语,win的过去分词为不规则变化won;故答案为won

4句意:目前的疫苗运输方式可能导致疫苗在到达发展中国家所需要的地方之前就冻结。

空格在形容词后面,判断填名词;根据“transporting vaccines can lead to the vaccines freezing(冻住) before reaching their places in developing countries——表达现在疫苗的运输方式的缺陷;根据首字母提示,methodmeans 意为方法,故答案为 methods/means

5句意:而Isobar保持28度的温度30天。

由上文可知现在疫苗的运输方法会导致疫苗在到达所需的地方之前冰冻掉,下文陈述Isobar能保持28度的温度30天;根据常识,这样的温度疫苗不会冰冻掉;推断前后逻辑关系存在对比关系;根据首字母提示,but 意为,故答案为 but

6句意:威尔的发明预计挽救了全世界150,000,000人的生命。

从文字的表层意思推断,空格指挽救了全世界15百万人的生命;根据首字母提示,around/across 意为围绕、横过around the world/across the would意为全世界;故答案为 across/around

7句意:我会亲力亲为,一路走来,确保它有效。

由上文可知威尔大学毕业后就致力于让Isobar投入生产;因由此推断,下文指他要确保产品的正常工作;根据首字母提示,work 意为使……工作,从句的主语是it,谓语动词用单三形式;故答案为 works

8句意:该产品被设计用来运输疫苗,但威尔已经看到了在发展中国家和其他地区Isobar其他医疗用途的可能性。

空格在名词前,判断填形容词;根据下文“Blood donations, organ transplants”——可知献血,器官移植等都属于医疗范围;根据首字母提示,medical 意为医疗的,故答案为 medical

9句意:如果他们运输途中被困住了,你还是要长时间用不够好的冷藏袋。

空格在介词后面,判断填名词;根据常识,血液和器官运输途中,会碰到交通问题;根据首字母提示,traffic 意为交通,故答案为traffic

10句意:当你没有电的时候,进行五天的旅行它是件好事。

空格在2个单句之间,判断填连词;由上文可知Isobar还有一种可能的非医疗用途,推断在旅行时没电或在没电的对方旅行,Isobar就能显示其功能; 根据首字母提示,where 意为在哪里when意为在什么时候;故答案为where/when
