WASHINGTON—Nearly 40 million children in developing countries stand to lose one or both parents due to AIDS (艾滋病) over the next 13 years, and almost 3 million children under 15 have caught the disease worldwide, US experts said. "More than 40 million children in 23 developing nations will likely have lost one or both their parents by 2010. Most of these deaths will be the result of the HIV/AIDS and complicated illnesses." Brian Atwood, a US official said. Meanwhile, since the first report death of a child by AIDS in Los Angelesl5 years ago, almost 3 million children under 15 are estimated (估计) to have caught the disease worldwide, and at least 1000 were dying each day. "In countries across Africa, Asia and Latin America, HIV/AIDS is pulling years of progress in economic and social development," he added. "Life expectancy (估计寿命) which has been steadily on the rise for last thirty years will drop to 40 years or less in nine African countries by the year 2020." Atwood said serious work to help stop children from dying in developing countries was being wiped out. "In all 23 countries included in this study, AIDS-related death will take away the gains made in child survival over the past 20 years. In Zambia and Zimbabwe, children’s death rates will likely nearly double," Atwood said. [br] Which one is TRUE according to the passage?
选项
A、Scientists hove made great progress in stopping children from dying of AIDS/HIV.
B、Nearly 40 million children died world wide every year.
C、Almost 3 million children under 15 have been infected (感染) by H1V/A1DS in the world.
D、In the world, children’s death rates will doubl
答案
C
解析
文中提到“…almost 3 million children under 15 are estimated (估计)to have caught the disease worldwide…”,由此可以看出选项C的内容与之相符,故C是正确答案。文章的最后讲到:“...AIDS-related death will take away the gains made in child survival over the past 20 years.”很显然,在攻克艾滋病的研究中取得的成绩并不大,以至于在赞比亚和津巴布韦的儿童死亡率会成倍升高。所以选项A的内容是不正确的。根据第一句和最后一句的内容可以判断出选项B和D也是错误的。
