A mom in Australia was told by a doctor that her newborn son was “dead”,but she helped bring him back to life by holding the baby against her body.She used a method known as “kangaroo care”.The child,named Jamie,was born after only 27 weeks with his twin sister,Emily,at a hospital in Sydney.Her birth went well,but his was a different story.The doctor struggled for 20 minutes to save him before declaring him dead.

“His little arms and legs were just falling down away from his body,” Kate Ogg said.“I took my coat off and put him on my chest with his head over my arm.” She and her husband,David,spoke to the child as she continued to hold him for nearly two hours.During that time,the two­pound baby showed signs of life.She said,“I told my mom,who was there,that he was still alive.Then he held out his hand and grabbed my finger.”

The doctor at first ignored the baby’s movements,but when he put the stethoscope (听诊器) to its chest,his mouth fell wide open and he said,“It’s my fault.It’s a miracle (奇迹).”

“The care helps the baby keep body warmth,” Dr Pinchi Srinivasan said.“It also regulates (调节) heart and breathing rates and is believed to help weight gain and improve sleeping habits.Fathers can also use ‘kangaroo care’.The key to the method is skin­to­skin contact.”

The practice began in less developed nations.It has become a recognized practice in helping premature_babies.The technique is good for babies,and is used in many baby care units.

68.When the baby first showed signs of life,the doctor________.

A.didn’t believe a miracle had happened

B.was too shocked to do anything

C.was cheered and tried to save the baby at once

D.was moved by what the mother did to the baby

69.D 细节理解题。根据第四段的The key to the method is skin­to­skin contact.可知应选D。

70.B 词义猜测题。根据第一段的was born after only 27 weeks可知那个婴儿27周就生下来了,属于早产儿。

完型填空,阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

  When I was growing up, I always gave my mom an apron(围裙)on her birthday.I wanted my own mom-  1   that apron I'd just given her, of course-to   2   me at the end of each afternoon bearing a plate of home-baked   3   as she waited breathlessly to hear about my   4   day at school.

  Mom loved her family without question, but as an elementary-school teacher she had her own exciting days to   5  .She had hardly any extra time and   6  , and home-baked treats were rare in our house except   7   very special occasions.Since Mom didn't make cookies very often, the   8   of her baking were not always the same.Sometimes the cookies were browned a little more than planned or   9   together and other times the cookies weren't smooth.  10  , none of that bothered anyone in the family.All we   11   was swallowing whatever we were having for dinner that night so we could get to the cookies   12   us on the kitchen counter.

  Now that I'm a mom myself, I can   13   all too well why my mother didn't always have the time to wear the apron.As was true with my mother, the list of things I need to do is often   14   than the day itself.But I also understand the desire to   15   the same yellow mixing bowl my mother used and make something special for my family every so often.Whatever I bake is met with approval, appreciation and good   16   by my husband and children.At some level, I believe they're   17   that I was thinking about them as I   18   the brown sugar into the butter or frosted the cake with their favorite kind of icing.They always know I love them.I   19   they know it a little better when I'm in a baking mood.

  I'm sure my mother felt   20   the same way whenever she made cookies for us.Those cookies will always, in my mind, be the best treat.
