By drawing on the World Bank’s projections of socioeconomic
development over the next quarter century, researchers at the
World Health Organization set out to forecast global trends in
death and disease. Among the grim catalog of predictions are that (1)______
the current top two killers — heart disease and stroke — will hold
on to their rankings. By 2030, however, HIV/AIDS will move
up from its current ranking in fourth place to become the third-
leading cause of death around the globe.
One of the obvious consequences of increased development
will be more deaths and injuries from traffic accidents, but (2)______
tobacco-related deaths are also expected to surge, accounted for (3)______
10 percent of all fatalities by 2015. In the fact, WHO estimates (4)______
that 50 percent more people will die with illnesses due to tobacco (5)______
use than from AIDS that year, although tobacco itself is not listed
as a cause of death. Deaths from tobacco-related conditions will
be split fairly evenly among cancers, cardiovascular diseases,
and respiratory illnesses.
The report, that is the most comprehensive of its kind, (6)______
does contain some bright spots. For example, it predicts that
maternal deaths associated with pregnancy and childbirth will
become more common, as will infant mortality and deaths (7)______
from nutritional causes. Because increased prosperity and (8)______
better medical care, the risk of death for children younger than
5 is projecting to decrease by more than 40 percent by 2030. (9)______
The death rate from tuberculosis, malaria, and other non-HIV
infectious disease will also decline. And people all over the (10)______
world will be living longer lives, with the largest gains occurring
in Africa and South Asia. [br]
选项
答案
more—less
解析
根据上文可知,该句是对上文提出的some bright spots的举例说明,因此强调的应是积极的一面。这里的become more common不仅表示maternal deaths的状况,也表示逗号后面infant mortality and deaths from nutritional causes的状况,死亡数量的增加不能算是bright spot,因此这里应该把more改为less。
