问题     In 2009, Dan Black was hit by a car in his hometown of Chepstow, Wales, as he was biking to his job at a grocery store.【C1】________During his recovery, he suffered a stroke that rendered his right arm useless. Once a promising guitarist, Dan, now 25, lives with his parents and requires around-the-clock care that costs nearly $300,000 a year.
    After the accident, a friend of Dan’s started the Help Dan Black fund to cover some of Dan’s medical expenses. Dan learned about an experimental stem cell treatment in China that could enable him to walk again.【C2】________.
    One day, in 2013, a news story caught the eye of Dan’s mother, Michaela, who then shared the story with her son. The story featured a five-year-old boy named Brecon Vaughan.【C3】________The boy’s family had created a website with which to raise nearly $ 100,000 needed for a trip to the St. Louis Children’s Hospital, where treatment was offered that could help Brecon walk. Only half the amount had been raised, said the report.
    Dan deliberated. Then, after considering that his own dream of walking could be years away, he donated his $ 30,000 to Brecon’s cause. "【C4】________Brecon doesn’t. He needs it much more than I do. " Dan told a newspaper.
    Dan’s generosity received a great deal of attention, and contributions started pouring in to the Vaughan website.【C5】________They’ve promised to give the excess funds, about $17,000, to the Tree of Hope charity, which helps sick children in the United Kingdom find specialized medical help. In October, Brecon and his family traveled to St. Louis to begin treatment.
    " What Dan did is great," Brecon’s mother said. " It is an extraordinary gift. "
    [A] I know how it feels to walk.
    [B] The family soon exceeded their fund-raising goal.
    [C] He had a rare form of disease and had never walked by himself.
    [D] After four years, donations to Help Dan Black totaled nearly $30,000.
    [E] The accident left him unable to move from the chest down.
    [F] This is the only thing I could do to help him.
    [G] His dream to be a musician shattered.  
【C2】
选项
答案D
解析 前文提到“a friend of Dan’s started the Help Dan Black fund…”丹的朋友为他筹集资金，而且前面提到了丹出车祸是2009年，下一段直接跳到了2013年，根据空格前后内容，只有D选项“4年之后，‘帮助丹.布莱克’基金筹集到了大约3万美金”符合句意，起承上启下的作用，故选D。
