14.Skin-to-skin Effort Aims to Cut Newborn DeathsA social media campaign has been launched in China to cut down the number of newborns babies who die in the first 24hours of life.The campaign,called First Embrace(拥抱),promotes skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby immediately after birth,a practice proven to keep the baby warm and help it to fight infections.
There are 16million babies born in China each year,and approximately 150,000of them die before they reach one month of age.(71)B Zhang Shuyi,a researcher at the Capital Institute of Pediatrics in Beijing,said there was strong evidence for the First Embrace approach.
"When babies are cold,they are more likely to catch infections or have difficulty breathing,"she said,"(72)C It provides direct protection against infection,promotes bonding between the parent and child and supports breast-feeding."Health workers who shifted from the normal practice of separation to skin-to-skin contact have observed that babies are more pink,calm and comfortable.
The WHO has developed the First Embrace approach to help reduce newborn deaths across the Western Pacific region,including China.Bernhard Schwartlander,the WHO Representative in China,said,"As many as two-thirds of newborn deaths could be prevented using simple,low-cost methods,including the First Embrace."
(73)A The WHO will be posting information about the campaign,and hosting online question-and-answer sessions with Chinese and international experts.The public can participate by following the WHO on Weibo and joining the conversation.Schwartlander said,"We are targeting new parents,pregnant women and couples thinking about having a baby.(74)G"
Just last month,a new research shows that child and mother health outcomes in Shanghai are equal to those in the USA and Canada.(75)E Hopefully,the messages conveyed by the new campaign could help to bridge that gap.
A.The campaign has now been launched via Weibo.
B.Of that number,half die in the first 24hours of life.
C.Skin-to-skin contact keeps a baby warm by transferring heat.
D.Those parents who lost their newborn babies can get supports on the platform.
E.In other parts of China,however,the statistics are like those of poor countries.
F.It indicates that related methods for health care and birth quality should be improved.
G.We also aim to involve health professionals in the importance of early essential newborn care.
分析 本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章向我们叙述了skin-to-skin的努力旨在减少新生儿死亡,他们推出第一次拥抱能降低新生儿婴儿在生命的第一个小时死亡人数,然而不同的地区对于方法施行的结果不同,因此他们通过微博发起一运动,希望新的运动所传达的信息有助于弥合这种差距.
解答 71.B.推理判断题.根据前文"and approximately 150,000of them die before they reach one month of age",约150000他们死于到达一个月的年龄之前,一年次下一句为在那个数据下,有一半死在生命的最初24小时;故选B.
72.C.推理判断题.根据后文"It provides direct protection against infection",它提供了直接的预防感染,因此前文应为skin-to-skin接触保持婴儿温暖的传热;故选C.
73.A.推理判断题.根据下文"The WHO will be posting information about the campaign",The WHO 将发布关于活动的信息,因此应填这一运动现在已经通过微博发起,联系了上下文;故选A.
74.G.推理判断题.根据上文"We are targeting new parents,pregnant women and couples thinking about having a baby",我们的目标是新的父母,怀孕的妇女和夫妇考虑生宝宝,都介绍目标,因此下文为我们的目标是要让健康专业人员在早期基本的新生儿护理的重要性;故选G.
75.E.推理判断题.根据下文"Hopefully,the messages conveyed by the new campaign could help to bridge that gap.",希望,新的运动所传达的信息有助于弥合这种差距,因此前文介绍差距,为然而,在银川地图的其他地区,统计数据就像是那些贫穷的国家;故选E.
点评 考察学生的推理判断能力和联系上下文的能力,在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.此类的填空题一定要联系上下文,根据上下文的内容加上自己的理解,再作出正确的判断.
