问题    In Kansas City, Missouri, a computer helps fire fighters. The computer, which works very fast, has information about every one of the 350,000 street addresses in the city. Within two or three seconds after a call is received, the computer provides necessary information for the fire fighters. The information is then sent to them by the radio from the computer center in City Hall. The exact place of the burning and its size, type and anything else are clear to them.
   The Kansas City computer system also has a medical record of each of the city’s 900 fire fighters. This kind of information is especially useful when a fire fighter is injured. With the information, doctors at the hospital can treat the injured fire fighters more quickly and easily.
   The fire fighters themselves greatly appreciate (感激) the computer help. They know about possible danger ahead of them and can prepare for them. Many times the computer information helps to save lives and property (财产). Sometimes the lives are those of fire fighters themselves.
   Mike Horan, a fire fighter captain, says, "I feel as if the computer is watching over (守护) me to help me if I get hurt."
Why can the doctors treat the fire fighters quickly and easily?
选项 A、The hospital has a very good computer.
B、The fire fighter can know about the possible danger early.
C、The computer can prepare everything for them.
D、Medical records in the computers help them a lot.
答案D
解析 第二段中提到“The Kansas City computer system also has a medical record of each of the city’s 900 fire fighters.”当消防队员受伤时，医生可以根据计算机提供的信息及时地为他们治疗。所以说计算机提供的信息帮了大忙。选项D的叙述与之相符，是正确答案。选项A和B的内容与文章相悖，而选项C的说法过于笼统。
