17、根据第二段第一句“According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in September, our brain has the ability to skip the temporary darkness when we blink.”可知，根据九月份发表在当代生物学杂志上的一项新研究，我们的大脑有能力跳过我们眨眼时形成的暂时黑暗。据此可推知，由于我们的大脑能处理丢失的图像，所以眨眼不会让我们错过任何东西，故A项正确。6What does the underlined word “it” in paragra

The ambulance rushed me to the nearest hospital, that the doctors and nurses did their best to look after myself. Five days
37、late, I was getting better. I watched the doctors to perform their duties tirelessly but offer all their patients the best treatment available. My experience in that hospital great influenced me.

38、ll come true if I keep work hard for it. 答案：I have a dream to be a doctor. Three years ago, I badly injured in car accident. The ambulance rushed me to the nearest hospital, the doctors and nurses did their best to look after . Five days ， I was getting better. I watched the doctors perform their du
39、ties tirelessly offer all their patients the best treatment available. My experience in that hospital influenced me. Since then, I have made it my lifes ambition to fight against diseases and save . I know my dream will come true if I keep hard for it. am改为was。根据本句中的时间状语Three years ago可知，时态应用一般过去时。故
40、将am改为was。在car前加a。此处泛指一次车祸，且accident为可数名词。故在car前加a。that改为where。分析句子结构可知，本句为非限制性定语从句，先行词为the nearest hospital，表示地点，关系词在从句中作地点状语，应用关系副词where，故将that改为where。myself改为me。此处表示医生和护士尽最大努力照顾“我”。此处作look after的宾语，应用宾格，主语和宾语并非同一人，不能用反身代词。故将myself改为me。late改为later。句意：五天后，我好多了。late意为“晚(的)；迟(的)”，later意为“随后；之后”。根据句意可知
41、，此处应用later。故将late改为later。删除to。watch sb. do sth.为固定搭配，意为“看某人做某事”。此处指作者在医院时看到医生们不知疲倦地履行他们的职责。故删除to。but改为and。句意：我看到医生们不知疲倦地履行他们的职责并为所有病人提供可行的最佳治疗(方案)。offer all their patients the best treatment available和前面的perform their duties tirelessly是并列关系，而非转折关系。故将but改为and。great改为greatly。句中的influenced是动词，应用副词来修饰，故此处应用greatly，表示“非常；十分；极大地”。故将great改为greatly。life改为lives。句意：从那以后，我把与疾病抗争和拯救生命作为自己的人生理想。此处“拯救生命”并非指一个人的生命，应用复数形式。故将life改为lives。work改为working。keep doing sth.为固定搭配，意为“继续做某事”。故将work改为working。
