This morning he awakens, opens his eyes, yawns and kicks vigorously several times. His umbilical cord drifts by his questing f

22、ingers. He plays with it briefly, brings his hands up to his mouth and sucks his thumb. Over his mother s heartbeat and the gurgles of her digestive tract, he can hear her talking with his father. Interested, he stops sucking to listen.Until recent years, we could only speculate on what life was lik

23、e for an unborn baby. Then, major advances in ultrasound scanning began opening a window to the womb; doctors could view every movement of the baby on a televisionlike screen. The pictures show unborn babies yawning, sucking, grasping, stretching, blinking and making facesin short, all the things th

24、ey will do after birth.Normally an unborn baby never experiences hunger or thirst. But if a mother does not consume sufficient nutrients, the baby s diet will not be adequate either. When an unborn baby is severely malnourishedfor instance, because his mother s heavy smoking restricts blood flow to

25、the placentaDr, Jason Birnholz, an ultrasound expert, believes he has seen the baby s chest and throat making crying motions.A radio startles him awake. He blinks and grimaces at the new sensation, but then becomes interested in the music. He turns his head to bring his ear closer to the outside wor

26、ld. He notices the pressure of the book his mother is resting on her belly. He kicks at it, her laugh comes to him as a dull, echoing rumble. She pats the spot he kicked and, entering into the spirit of the game, he kicks back. They play several rounds before he loses interest and falls asleep.Can a

27、 mother s stress, anger, shock or grief harm her baby? No. The normal stresses and strains of life won t hurt him. As the expert Maurers put it, such periods are the womb equivalent of having a spell of “ bad weather“. Some are startled when exposed to a series of loud buzzes, but some then turn an

28、ear to listen.Severe continuous stress may be another story. It remains unclear whether problems arise from the stress itself or from the poor nutrition, smoking, drinking or drug taking that likely accompany it. In any case the baby is affected.48 “He“ in the first paragraph refers to_.（A）an eight-

29、month-old baby in his small room（B） an unborn baby in his mother s womb（C） a newborn baby in his mother s womb（D）a would-be baby in the hospital49 “Ultrasound scanning“ in the second paragraph most probably is a kind of_.（A）medical instruments for examining the patients（B） tools for opening windows

30、or doors（C） glasses for seeing through the babies bodies（D）pictures for showing the babies activities50 People generally believe that_.（A）babies have already learned to stretch and make faces before they are born（B） unborn babies are able to grasp, stretch when they stay in the womb for 8 months（C）

31、newborn babies learn to suck and yawn soon after they are born（D）babies are unable to yawn, suck or grasp until they are born51 Which of the following statements is FALSE?（A）An unborn baby usually doesn t feel thirsty.（B） An unborn baby will feel uncomfortable if its mother smokes too much.（C） An un

32、born baby is usually not interested in music.（D）An unborn baby can feel the pressure of outside on the mother s belly.52 The passage suggests that_.（A）the severe anger of the mother will affect the unborn baby（B） bad weather does no harm to the babies in the wombs（C） some of the unborn babies are mo

33、re interested in music（D）most of the unborn babies enjoy the good weather 52 Charles Paul and his wife, Hazel, stopped using the motor home they bought several years ago; it sits idle behind their house in Richardson, Texas. Travel is just one sacrifice they made to pay for the cost of their prescri

34、ptions, more than a dozen medications for the two of them. They found relief by switching drugstores, to one in nearby McKinney. A prescription for Paul s diabetes had cost $ 89. 88 when he got it from a national chain but dropped down to $ 58 from McKinney s Smith Drug.Smith, which claims to be the

35、 oldest drugstore in Texas, has been getting a lot of attention since a Dallas newspaper touted its astoundingly low prices. The overwhelming response from the public has been “ a little scary,“ says co-owner Kaylei Mosier. She says the store simply marks each prescription up enough to cover its cos

36、ts, but for many prescriptions that s a lot lower than at other stores.The Smith Drug story has highlighted a little-known fact: prescription prices vary from city to city and block to block, and a little research can save consumers hundreds or thousands of dollars. Insurance copays can make these d

37、ifferences invisible, but they re a huge deal to the 45 million uninsured Americans.Why the price swings? Howard Schiff, executive director of the Maryland Pharmacists Association , explains that pharmacies generally buy their drugs from a wholesaler, who doesn t sell to every drugstore at the same

38、price. Once the drug is in the pharmacy, each owner chooses how much to mark it up. Because fewer than 10 percent of consumers comparison-shop for prescriptions the way they might for a quart of milkand drug prices generally are not advertisedpharmacies don t worry that higher prices will drive peop

39、le away, says Stanford economist Alan Scorensen.There is a downside to hopping from drugstore to drugstore. If people price-shop, they re going to lose some protection that comes from having one pharmacy track all your medications. Going to many pharmacies keeps one pharmacist from noticing potentia

40、lly harmful interactions between prescriptions. Comparison-shopping is further complicated because pharmacies that have the best price on one drug don t usually have the lowest prices across the board, so finding a good price on one drug at a pharmacy does not guarantee a cheaper total bill.53 Charl

41、es and his wife havent traveled for long because_.（A）their motor home was not in good condition（B） they wanted to save for medicines（C） they have been too weak to do so（D）they didn t get their doctor s permission54 We learn that the oldest drugstore in Texas, Smith, _.（A）surprises people when its lo

42、w prices are reported（B） sells prescriptions at prices below their costs（C） is an unprofitable business（D）had many scared customers after a news report55 Who may care LEAST about the varied prices?（A）Those who are uninsured.（B） Those who are insured.（C） Those who comparison-shop for drugs.（D）Those d

43、oing research in drugstores.56 Some drugstores can sell drugs at a higher price than others because_.（A）people may have more choices over the same product（B） not many people know the price differences（C） some drugstores spend more on ads than others（D）drugs were bought from different wholesalers57 T

44、he word “downside“ used in the last paragraph refers to_.（A）the poor service in tracking medications（B） the trend of reducing drug prices（C） the popularity of comparison-shopping（D）the drawback of switching drugstores 57 Whether the cause is maternal anti-bodies, heavy metals or something else, ther

45、e is no question that the brains of young children with autism have unusual features. To begin with, they tend to be too big. In studies based on magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)and basic tape-measure readings , neuroscientist Eric Courchesne at Children s Hospital of San Diego showed that while chil

46、dren with autism are born with ordinary-size brains, they experience a rapid expansion by age 2particularly in the frontal lobes. By age 4, says Courchesne, autistic children tend to have brains the size of a normal 13-year-old. More recent studies by Admiral and others have found that the amygdale,

47、 an area associated with social behavior, is also oversize, a finding Admiral believes is related to the high levels of anxiety seen in as many as 80% of people with autism.Harvard pediatric neurologist Dr. Martha Herbert reported last year that the excess white matter in autistic brains has a speci

48、fic distribution; local areas tend to be over connected, while links between more distant regions of the brain are weak. The brain s right and left hemispheres are also poorly connected. It s as if there are too many competing local services but no long distance.This observation jibes neady with ima

49、gining studies that look at live brain activity in autistic people. Studies using functional MRI show a lack of coordination among brain regions, says Marcel Just, director of Carnegie Mellon s Center for Cognitive Brain Imaging in Pittsburgh, Pa. Just has scanned dozens of 15-to-35-year-old autistic people with IQs in the normal range, giving them thinking tasks as he monitors their brain activity. “ One thing you see,“ says Just, “ is that activit
