    BEIJING――China’s State Council, the Cabinet, has started the first class national food safety emergency response to deal with the polluted Sanlu milk powder incident that has caused kidney stones(肾结石) in at least 432 babies.

       The State Council has set up a national leading group comprising officials from the Health Ministry, the quality watchdog and local governments for the incident.

       Two babies with kidney stones receive medical treatment at a military hospital in Lanzhou, Sept, 11, 2008. [Xinhua]

       A first round research has confirmed the Sanlu baby milk powder polluted by melamine(三聚氰胺) was the cause of kidney stones in babies, said an official statement.

The melamine found in some of the Sanlu products was deliberately added to increase the protein (蛋白质) percentage in raw milk or milk powder, it said.

       阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的字数要求）。

       Safety in the  highway is not totally out of hands. Here are four ways we can protect ourselves when we travel.

       You are safer in a large car. People in small cars are injured more often and more severely than people traveling in large cars. Factories of small cars are strengthening their products’ safety, which helps. But the mix of large cars and small cars on the road is the main reason of the problem.    

    Being thrown into glass and metal car parts, or being thrown from the car, can really damage to you. That’s why safety belts should be worn. The safety belt’s main purpose is ___________if your car has a sudden crash with another vehicle or object, or if it rolls over. A belt can reduce the chance of fatal injury by 45% and the chance of serious injury by 50%.

    Air bags are important. More than half of all new cars sold have air bags. Air bags provide protection in frontal（正面的）crashes――the type of crash that kills the most drivers――when they are also wearing safety belts. Most people are demanding air bags in the cars they buy. But the protection provided by air bags is limited in side or rear crashes; effective as they are, they can’t take the place of safety belts.

Drunk driving crashes are less likely to happen if you don’t drink. Drunk driving is the most serious problem. Many people have realized that drunk driving can lead to death and injury, prison time and other results. There are movements to strengthen penalties(处罚) for drinking and driving.

       Exercise is one of the few factors with a positive role in long term maintenance of body weight. Unfortunately, that message has not gotten through to the average American, who would rather try switching to “light” beer and low - calorie bread than increase physical exertion. The Centers for Disease Control, for example, found that fewer than one - fourth of overweight adults who were trying to shed pounds said they were combining exercise with their diet.

　　In rejecting exercise, some people may be discouraged too much by caloric - expenditure charts; for example, one would have to briskly(兴致勃勃地) walk three miles just to work off the 275 calories in one delicious Danish pastry (小甜饼). Even exercise professionals concede（承认） half a point here. “Exercise by itself is a very tough way to lose weight,” says York Onnen, program director of the President’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports.

　　Still, exercise’s supporting role in weight reduction is vital. A study at the Boston University Medical Center of overweight police officers and other public employees confirmed that those who dieted without exercise regained almost all their old weight, while those who worked exercise into their daily routine maintained their new weight.

　　If you have been sedentary (极少活动的) and decide to start walking one mile a day, the added exercise could burn an extra 100 calories daily. In a year’s time, assuming no increase in food intake, you could lose ten pounds. By increasing the distance of your walks gradually and making other dietary adjustments, you may lose even more weight.
