选项
A、available
B、adaptable
C、approachable
D、agreeable
答案
A
解析
语义衔接题。由前面提到的“只有小部分人能活很长时间”以及下文提到的people with dis-abilities call expect to have…medical treatment(残疾人可以期望获得…治疗)可推断出,以前针对这些残疾的治疗还没有,故答案为[A]available“可得到的,可用的”。[B]adaptable“能适应的”;[C]approachable“可接近的;友好的”:[D]agreeable“愉快的;适合的”。下面提到的these basics are often not available对本题有提示作用。
