I have been consistently opposed to feeding a baby regularly. As a doctor, mother and scientist in child development, I believe there is nothing to recommend it, from the baby’s point of view.
Mothers, doctors and nurse alike have no idea of where a baby’s blood sugar level lies. All we know is that a low level is harmful to brain development and makes a baby easily annoyed. In this state, the baby is difficult to calm down and sleep is impossible. The baby asks for attention by crying and searching for food with its mouth.
It is not just unkind but also dangerous to say a four-hourly feeding schedule will make a baby satisfied. The first of the experts to advocate a strict clock-watching schedule was Dr Frederic Truby King who was against feeding in the night. I’ve never heard anything so ridiculous. Baby feeding shouldn’t follow a timetable set by the mum. What is important is feeding a baby in the best way, though it may cause some inconvenience in the first few weeks.
Well, at last we have copper-bottomed research that supports demand feeding and points out the weaknesses of strictly timed feeding. The research finds out that babies who are fed on demand do better at school at age 5, 7, 11 and 14, than babies fed according to the clock. By the age of 8, their IQ scores are four to five percent higher than babies fed by a rigid timetable. This research comes from Oxford and Essex University using a sample（样本）of 10,419 children born in the early 1990s, taking account of parental education, family income, a child’s sex and age, the mother’s health and feeding style. These results don’t surprise me. Feeding according to schedule runs the risk of harming the rapidly growing brain by taking no account of sinking blood sugar levels.
I hope this research will put an end to advocating strictly timed baby feeding practices.
小题1:What does the author think about Dr King?| A．He is strict | B．He is unkind | | C．He has the wrong idea. | D．He sets a timetable for mothers |
小题2:The word copper-bottomed in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to __________.| A．basic | B．reliable | C．surprising | D．interesting |
小题3:What does the research tell us about feeding a baby on demand?| A．The baby will sleep well. | | B．The baby will have its brain harmed. | | C．The baby will have a low blood sugar level. | | D．The baby will grow to be wiser by the age of 8. |
小题4:The author supports feeding the baby __________.| A．in the night | B．every four hours | | C．whenever it wants food | D．according to its blood sugar level |

Welcome to your future life!
You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. Your face is firm and young-looking. In 2035, medical technology is better than ever. Many people of your age could live to be 150, so at 40, you’re not old at all. And your parents just had an anti-aging (抗衰老的) treatment. Now, all three of you look the same age!
You say to your shirt, “Turn red.” It changes from blue to red. In 2035, “smart clothes” contain particles(粒子) much smaller than the cells in your body. The particles can be programmed to change clothes’ color or pattern.
You walk into the kitchen. You pick up the milk, but a voice says, “You shouldn’t drink that!” Your fridge has read the chip (芯片) that contains information about the milk, and it knows the milk is old. In 2035, every article of food in the grocery store has such a chip.
It’s time to go to work. In 2035, cars drive themselves. Just tell your “smart car” where to go. On the way, you can call a friend using your jacket sleeve. Such “smart technology” is all around you.
So will all these things come true? “For new technology to succeed,” says scientist Andrew Zolli, “it has to be so much better that it replaces what we have already.” The Internet is one example. What will be the next?
小题1:We can learn from the text that in the future ___________.| A．people will never get old | | B．everyone will look the same | | C．red will be the most popular color | | D．clothes will be able to change their pattern |
小题2:What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?| A．Milk will be harmful to health. | | B．More drinks will be available for sale. | | C．Food in the grocery store will carry electronic information. | | D．Milk in the grocery store will stay fresh much longer. |
小题3:What is the text mainly about?| A．Food and clothing in 2035. | | B．Future technology in everyday life. | | C．Medical treatments of the future. | | D．The reason for the success of new technology. |
