问题 PASSAGE ONE
According to the context, what does "pandemic potential" in paragraph 15 mean?

选项

答案The possibility of(a disease)transmitting worldwide.

解析 根据文章, “pandemic potential”是什么意思?根据第十五段的内容可推断出该意。第十五段中说“冠状病毒突变概率很高,并且还有越界进入新物种宿主的趋势”,之后话题转变,从第十五段中while this is of concern,especially in light of how deadly MERS and SARS can be,MERS transmission is not efficient enough to have“pandemic potential”,the study’s authors suggest.可知,尽管这种情况令人担忧,尤其是考虑到SARS和MERS的致命后果,但MERS的传播不足以有“大范围流行的潜力”。从文章内容可知, “大范围”指世界范围。另外从第十六段中可知,世卫组织说“持续应用传染病防治的适当措施已经防止了与医疗设施相关的大规模病例出现。这就表明,这种方法可以在MERS的防控中再次应用。”由此可推断出该题答案。
