题目
Previous projects had failed.
People are no longer vaccinated for it.
The World Health Organization mounted a worldwide campaign to eradicate the disease.
It was a serious threat.
参考答案和解析
是非题。第二段最后一句提到“Because similar projects for malaria and yellow fever had failed, few believed that smallpox could actually be eradicated”，即以前对疟疾和黄热病开展的类似项目都失败了，因此几乎没有人相信天花可以被彻底根除。并不是说以前开展根除天花的项目失败了。因此选项A表述错误。

It is the first world encyclopedic dictionary
It can help deaf people know about the world more easily
It took them sixteen years to finish the book
It includes medicine and art about the life of deaf people
原文中第三段说这本书是“the first Chinese encyclopedic dictionary”，并不是世界范围内的。故A错误。原文中第四段提到“They spent six years”，也就是说这本书历时六年完成，并不是十六年，故C项错误。原文中第四段说“The dictionary includes words on medicine, education, psychology, law, history and culture about deaf people’s life.”，故D项不全面，应排除。故B项为正确选项。
