When a rare disease ALD threatened to kill the four-year-old boy Lorenzo, his parents refused to give up hope. Doctors explained that there was no cure for ALD, and that he would probably die within three years. But Lorenzo’s parents set out to prove the doctor’s wrong.
The parents devoted themselves to keeping their son alive and searching for a cure. But doctors and the families of other ALD patients often refused to take them seriously. They thought the efforts to find a cure were a waste of time, and drug companies weren’t interested in supporting research into such a rare disease.
However, the parents still refused to give up and spent every available hour in medical libraries and talking to anyone who would help. Through trial and error(反复实验), they finally created a cure from ingredients(调料)commonly found in the kitchen. The cure, named "Lorenzo’s Oil", saved the boy’s life. Despite the good results, scientists and doctors remained unconvinced. They said there was no real evidence that the oil worked and that the treatment was just a theory. As a result, some families with ALD children were reluctant to try it.
Finally, the boy’s father organized an international study to test the oil. After ten years of trials, the answer is: the oil keeps ALD children healthy.
From the passage we can conclude that______.
选项
A、doctors remain doubtful of the effectiveness of the cure
B、many ALD patients still refuse to use the oil
C、various cures have been found for ALD
D、the oil really works as a cure for ALD
答案
D
解析
细节题。文章末旬说After ten years of trials,the answer is:the oil keeps ALD children healthy.意为“长达10年的试验终于证明,这种药能使ALD病患儿童恢复健康”。
