根据下文内容，这里应该是“失去指纹会带来多大麻烦”，因此选A。
本句意思是“一位新加坡籍的医学博士描述了一位用卡培他滨治疗鼻咽癌的62岁老 人的经历”。因此选B。
diet“饮食”;exercise“锻炼”;recovery“康复”;drug“药品”，最符合题意。本句意思是 “经过这个药物三年的治疗后······”。因此选D。
本句意思是“他被美国海关人员扣留了四小时之久。”介词for在这里指“持续······时 间”。因此选B。

side effect意为“副作用”。
however“但是”，表示转折；meanwhile“同时”;hence“因此”，后面可以直接跟名词而独 立成句；yet“仍然，还”。因此选C。
短文一直在讲“指纹消失”这个话题，故应选C。

note“票据，单子”，最符合题意。
本句意思是“但是他同样要有医师开的证明单——并且要随身携带”。因此只能选C, without。
