44. 標準答案：People who get tested must enter a secret identification code to see theresults
聽音關(guān)鍵：People, tested, enter a secret identification code, to see the results
答案重構(gòu)：1) People tested must enter a secret ID code to see the results
2) People tested cannot see the results unless they enter a secret ID code
畫龍點睛：who get tested作people的定語，可以簡化為過去分詞定語。enter a secret identificationcode稍有難度，若熟悉電腦操作及相關(guān)指令，應(yīng)明白其含義，可以改為：need a secret ID number。
45. 標準答案：it is important to get patients involved in their own health care by helpingthem gain information
聽音關(guān)鍵：important, to get patients involved, health care, help them gain information
答案重構(gòu)：1) we must make patients fully informed so that they can be involved in their ownhealth care
2) it is vital that patients gain information and get involved in their own health care
畫龍點睛：句子結(jié)構(gòu)it is important to...比較簡單，get...involved in是一個常用短語，their own healthcare是本文的主題(第1句就有)，by后面的方式狀語也沒有復(fù)雜單詞?？傊揪湟吮M量照搬原文。當(dāng)然，也可以換一種方式表達，比如用主語從句(從句中須用should do虛擬語氣)。
46. 標準答案：there are endless possible uses for this technology, especially indeveloping countries
聽音關(guān)鍵：endless possible uses for this technology, developing countries
