参考答案
参考解析
解析：根据上下文的意思，失去（losing）的应该是fingerprints。 Fingerprints是复数形式，指代它的代词是them。其他三个代词都不合适。
前面两个句子说，失去指纹是一大问题。本句说，要举出一个实例以说明失去指纹会造成极大的困扰。所以只有选项D最合适。
第二段描述了实例的细节。第一句说病人用一种药名为卡培他滨的杭癌药治疗他的鼻咽癌。所以treat是必然的选择。cut（切割) ,find（寻找）和smooth（弄平）都与上下文接不上。
从上下文判断，"After three years on the...（经过三年的……）”后面应该接“用药”、“治疗”等字眼，所以选drug是正确的。选recovery（康复）,diet（节食）或diagnosis（诊断）都与后面提到的病人进入美国受阻的事件接不上。
for表示时间上“达到”,for 4 hours意为“长达四小时”。
美国海关因为采集不到那位癌症患者的指纹样本，于是盘问了他4小时。所以本句提到的swirly应该与marks搭配，意思是“漩涡状指纹标记”。
为了防止恐怖分子和罪犯进入美国，美国海关通过电脑对外国入境者进行指纹采样，然后与指纹库进行比照。根据常理，海关要检查每一位外国人的指纹。采样的手指是食指。后面的screened（比照）是解题的重要线索，引导读者选A，即printed。这里 printed = finger printed（采集指纹样本）。其他三个选项，即located（找出）、cured（治疗）和placed(放置），都与上下文的意思接不上。
实例中的新加坡人用了杭癌药后的一个副作用是指纹消失，这是一种不良反应。所以，选good, main, normal（正常的）都不符合上下文的意思，只有side才是答案。 side effect意为“副作用”。
前面句子提及的服用杭癌药是因，本段最后一句是果，连接词应该用Hence。而 However表示转折关系，Moreover和Furthermore表示“进一步”的关系，与上文连接不上。
本段表达的意思是：由于癌症病人服用了卡培他滨后指纹何时开始消失还不清楚，所以主治医生要提前为病人开具指纹可能会消失的证明单。to take place（发生）之前填上like ,decide或have都与上下文的意思接不上，唯有begin最合适。
参阅上一题的题解。本题四个选项中的英语单词的前三个字母都是pre-，只要知道prescribe的词义是“开处方”，就会选D。
第五段的意思是，那位病人已经拿到医生开具的指纹消失证明单，现在他们出门旅行不会不带上它。本题without是答案。
哪一个政府机构许可（approved)使用该类杭癌药？就是本段第一句提到的the Food and Drug Administration。四个选项中，只有关系代词which能指代the Food and Drug Administration，它是approved动作的发出者。
最后一段表达的意思是：过去该药列出的不良反应只包括呕吐等，没有列出指纹消失这一副作用，现在应该补上这一条。所以，updating（更新）是答案。
最后一段最后一句中，为了强调no where，将它移到句首，这时，原句的“it does not mention the potential for loss of fingerprints”就要写成强调句形式的“no where does it mention the potential for loss of fingerprints"。所以，答案是B。
