8、These babies may grow into adults with a high risk of heart disease and strokes. Research has hinted that newborns in mountain communities are lighter than average, But it wasnt clear whether this is due to reduced oxygen levels at high altitude or because their mothers are under-nourished many peop

9、le who live at high altitudes are relatively poor compared with those living lower down. To find out more, Dino Giussani and his team at Cambridge University studied the records of 400 births in Bolivia during 1997 and 1998. The babies were born in both rich and poor areas of two cities: La Paz and

10、Santa Cruz. La Paz is the highest city in the world, at 3.65 kilometers above sea level, while Santa Cruz is much lower, at 0.44 kilometers. Sure enough, Giussani found that the average birthweight of babies in La Paz was significantly lower than in Santa Cruz. This was true in both high and low-inc

11、ome families. Even babies born to poor families in Santa Cruz were heavier on average than babies born to wealthy families in lofty La Paz. “We were very surprised by this result,“ says Giussani. The results suggest that babies born at high altitude are deprived of oxygen before birth. “This may tri

12、gger the release or suppression of hormones that regulate growth of the unborn child,“ says Giussani. His team also found that high-altitude babies tended to have relatively larger heads compared with their bodies. This is probably because a fetus starved of oxygen will send oxygenated blood to the

13、brain in preference to the rest of the body. Giussani wants to find out if such babies have a higher risk of disease in later life. People born in La Paz might be prone to heart trouble in adulthood, for example. Low birthweight is a risk factor for coronary heart disease. And newborns with a high r

14、atio of head size to body weight are often predisposed to high blood pressure and strokes in later life. 16 According to the passage, one of the reasons why newborns in mountain communities are underweight is that their mothers are underweight. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 17 Giussanis t

15、eam members are all British researchers and professors from Cambridge University. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 18 Giussani did not expect to find that the weight of a baby had little to do with the financial conditions of the family he was born into. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentio

16、ned 19 The weight of a newborn has to do with the supply of oxygen even when he was still in his mothers womb. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 20 High-altitude babies have heads that are larger than their bodies. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 21 High-altitude babies have longer b

19、 keeping. To get a successful grip on organizing documents, bills, and other materials, Denton suggests the following tips: 2 Create a space in which you can always do your paperwork. This is perhaps the most important element of a successful system. If you cant devote an entire desk to the task, at

20、 least invest in a rolling file cart to store active paperwork and a two-drawer file cabinet for family records. Store the rolling file cart wherever it is most convenient and comfortable to do your work, whether that is the kitchen, office, or family room. 3 When in doubt, throw it out. The first s

21、tep for implementing a workable filing system is to eliminate paper you dont use, dont need, or that you could easily access again elsewhere. Throw out duplicate statements, old catalogs, and all of the coupons, mailings, or offerings youll never have an opportunity to use or even read. 4 Set aside

22、two days a month to pay bills. If a monthly due date doesnt fit into your cycle, call up the creditor and suggest a more convenient date. Keep two manila folders at the front of your system for current bills one to correspond with each bill-paying day and file all incoming bills. Keep a list in the

23、front of each folder of what needs to be paid in case the invoice never arrives or gets misplaced. 5 Think of your filing system not as a rigid tool, but as a living, breathing system that can accommodate your changing needs. A good filing system is both mentally and physically flexible. Everyones n

24、eeds are different, says Denton, but when devising a filing system, ask yourself: “Where would I look for this?“ Create main headings for your filing system, such as Investments, Taxes, Children, and so forth, and file individual folders under the main headings. Never overstuff your files. 23 A Find
