Passage 3 Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
When a heart-lung machine was invented that could take over the job of the heart, put oxygen into the blood and keep the circulation going during surgery, surgeons could stop the heart while they were cutting and suturing. Recently, in certain cases, some surgeons have begun operating without the pump while the heart continues to beat.
“The benefits of off-pump surgery are tremendous for patients who meet the criteria for this procedure,” says Dr. Jim Zellner with the Alliance of Cardiac, Thoracic and Vascular Surgeons. “There is less need for blood products, less chance of complications during and after surgery, earlier recovery and earlier return to regular activity.”
Seawood Murray feels he was led by God to find Dr. Zellner and Memorial Hospital and to have off-pump surgery.
A veteran of the United States Navy as a nuclear weapons security officer and commanding officer of a mine assembly group for more than 31 years, Seawood has never complained about stress or pain. He saw three tours of duty off the coast of Vietnam.
However, after suffering from chest pain for almost a year and being misdiagnosed with chronic heartburn, Seawood knew something was seriously wrong. At the Veteran’s hospital in Murfreesboro, he learned he had heart disease and was told to come back in six weeks.
“I didn’t want to wait that long and asked for a referral to The Chattanooga Heart Institute,” Seawood says. “Dr. Noel Hunt found that 40% of my heart was not getting the amount of blood it needed to operate properly.”
Four days later, Seawood was undergoing off-pump triple bypass surgery at Memorial Hospital under the hand of Dr. Zellner.
“I was sitting up that evening, walking around the second day and feeling good enough to go home the third day, but I stayed till the fourth morning,” Seawood says. “Two others who had on-pump bypass surgery the same day I had mine off-pump were barely walking when I left.”

Passage Three 短文大意： 本文用Seawood Murray这个具体的事例来说明无泵心脏手术的益处极多。 31. 【参考译文】根据这段文章的内容，外科医生一般用什么给心脏病人做手术？【试题分析】细节推理题。【详细解答】从第一段的句子When a heart-lung machine was invented ..., surgeons could stop the heart ...Recently,...some surgeons have begun operating without the pump.... 中可得出答案。 32. 【参考译文】下面的哪一项陈述不是无泵手术的好处？【试题分析】判断推理题。【详细解答】从第二段的句子...less need for blood products, less chance of complications ..., earlier recovery and earlier return to regular activity.（输血更少，手术期间和手术后患并发症的可能性小，康复更快，也能使患者更快地恢复正常活动。）中可得出B）、C）、D）是无泵手术的好处。而文章中最后一段的句子...“I was sitting up at evening, walking around the second day and feeling good enough to go home the third day, but I stayed till the fourth morning,”中得出无泵手术病人不可能在一天内康复。故答案为A）。 33. 【参考译文】Seawood Murray患了什么病？【试题分析】判断推理题。【详细解答】从第五段的句子However, after suffering from chest pain ...he learned he had heart disease .... 中可得出答案。 34. 【参考译文】Zellner医生给Seawood Murray做了什么？【试题分析】细节推理题。【详细解答】从倒数第二段的句子... Seawood was undergoing off-pump triple bypass surgery ...under the hand of Dr. Zellner.（做了一个无泵三重旁通管手术）中可得出答案。 35. 【参考译文】从文章中最后一段可得知什么？【试题分析】判断推理题。【详细解答】从最后一段的句子“手术后的当天晚上坐起来，第二天走动，第三天感觉良好觉得可以回家，但第四天上午才回家，在我做无泵手术的同一天，其他两个做有泵手术的病人在我离开时几乎不能走动。”中可得推出答案。
