I have been consistenly opposed to feeding a baby regularly.As a doctor, other and scientist in child developent I believe there is nothing to recoend it, fro the baby’s point of vie
others, 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 harful to brain developent and akes a baby easily annoyed. In this state, the baby is difficult to cal down and sleep is ipossible. The baby asks for attention by crying and searching for food with its outh.
It is not just unkind but also dangerous to say a four-hourly feeding schedule will ake 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 tietable set by the u. What is iportant is feeding a baby In the best way, though it ay cause soe ineonvenience in the first feeeks.
Well, at last we have copper-bottoed research that supports deand feeding and points out the weaknesses of strictly tied feeding . The research finds out that babies who are fed on deand 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 （智商）scores are four to five percent higher than babies fed by a rigid tietable. This Research coes fro Oxford and Essex University using a saple （样本）of 10,419 children born in the early 1990s,taking account of parental education,faily incoe,a child’s sex and age,the other’s health and feeling style.These results don’t surprise e.Feeling according to schedule runs the risk of haring the rapidly growing brain by taking no account of sinking blood sugar levels.
I hope this research will put an end to advocating strictly tied baby feeling practices.
31.According to Paragraph 2,one reason why a baby cries is that it feels______.
A.sick B.upset C.sleepy D.hungry
32.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 tietable for others
33.The word copper-bottoed in Paragraph 4 is closest in eaning to _________.
A.basic B.reliable C.surprising D.interesting
34.What does the research tell us about feeling a baby on deand?
A.The baby will sleep well.
B.The baby will have its brain hared.
C.The baby will have a low blood sugar level.
D.The baby will grow to be wiser by the age of 8.
35.The author supports feeling the baby_______.
A.in the night
B.every four hours
C.whenever it wants food
D.according to its blood sugar level
