US to Start $3.2 Billion Child Health Study in January
A study that will cost$3.2 billion and last more than two decades to track the health of 100,000 US children from before birth to age 21 will be launched in January,US health officials said on Friday.
Officials from the US government's National Institutes of Health said they hope the study,to be conducted at 105 locations throughout the United States,can help identify early-life influences that affect later development,with the goal of learning new ways to treat or prevent illness.
The study will examine hereditary(遗传的)and environmental factors such as exposure to certain chemicals that affect health.
Researchers will collect genetic and biological samples from people in the study as well as samples from the homes of the women and their babies including air,water,dust and materials used to construct their residences,the NIH said.
Officials said more than $200 million has been spent already and the study is projected to cost$3.2 billion.
"We anticipate that in the long term(从长远来说),what we learn from the study will result in a significant savings in the nation's health care costs,"Dr. Duane Alexander,who heads the NIH's Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development,told reporters.
The study will begin in January when the University of North Carolina and the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York start signing up(签订协议)pregnant women whose babies will then be followed to age 21.
Some of the early findings will be about factors behind pre-term birth(早产),which has become more common in recent years,according to Dr. Peter Scheidt of the NIH,who heads the study.
The people taking part will be from rural,urban and suburban areas,from all income and educational levels and from all racial groups,the NIH said.
选项
It is expected that through the study the nation's health care costs______.
A:will be lowered in the long run
B:will be significantly increased
C:will be more than $200 million
D:will reach $3.2 billion
答案
A
解析
短文的第二段提到了此项研究的goal,即aim,这便是learning new ways to treat or prevent illness。
A、B、C三项在短文的第四段都有提及。D项不正确,应该是samples from the homes of the women and their babies including air,water,dust and materials used to construct their residences(参加研究的妇女及其婴儿家中的空气与水等物质)。
短文的第六段说到,预计从长远的角度讲,此项研究将节约大笔国家卫生保健费用。
短文的第一段及倒数第三段都说到,这些婴儿将从出生前一直被跟踪到 21岁。
A、B、C三项在短文的最后一段都有提及,而D是错误的,因为研究对象都是怀孕的妇女,不是所有年龄段的人们。
