Malaria is one of the three most prevalent serious diseases in the world.The others are tuberculosis and AIDS. Nearly 500 million people are infected worldwide each year. More than one million die. According to UNICEF, the UN’s children’s organization, more than 90 percent of all malaria cases are in sub-Saharan Africa.Two thousand African children die daily from the disease. Dr. Patrick Kaucher is with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "In rural Africa, one out of every five children born doesn’t survive until his fifth birthday." Malaria is transmitted from person to person via mosquitoes that carry the parasite. Malaria rapidly destroys red blood cells, which deliver oxygen and nutrients to the rest of the body. The disease is preventable and treatable, but most of Africa does not have adequate resources to do either.

选项 A、There are three most prevalent diseases in the world.
B、Malaria is treatable and preventable.
C、African children die from malaria every day.
D、Malaria is a prevalent disease.

答案 D

解析 该题考查考生对文章大意的概括能力。a项说世界上有三种流行疾病,不符合本文中心思想。b项说疟疾可以治愈,虽然文中提到了,但是目前还没实现。c项说每天非洲都有儿童死于疟疾,显然不是文章主旨。因此,d项为选择项。
