In early pregnancy, certain changes occur in the mother's gastrointestinal tract, resulting in more efficient absorption of specific nutrients, such as iron and calcium. Furthermore, the maternal blood supply increases, so that nutrients can be transported via the uterine and placental blood systems: If the mother is undernourished, this "lifeline" to the fetus will be inadequately developed. Finally, fat is accumulated within the body to store the energy necessary for lactation (milk production), This preparation for lactation is so important that if the mother is inadequately nourished, it will take place even at the expense of fetal growth. It is a logical developmental occurrence, since in the natural world, no infant can survive without successful breastfeeding, and thus fetal growth is less of a priority.
According to the passage, which of the following is required for lactation?
A.Fat storage.
B.Iron and calcium.
C.Increased blood supply.
D.A well-nourished placenta.
They have a broad and flexible toolkit of techniques, resolving complex,interdependent activities into tasks and sub-tasks that are documented, monitored and controlled.

There is a need for people to conform. with society, therefore preventing social-emotional support for interracial couples.Many people are afraid of getting involved because of what others will think.People are often much more open to and ready to embrace the idea when it does not affect their life.“ I support the kid down the street marrying for love, no matter what color skin the person they love has.” However, the same person is not necessarily so supportive when his child brings home someone of another race.Without the support of family, relationships feel more stressful.
Different cultural ideas also increase stress in a relationship.People tend to argue more when they agree less.They tend to agree less when their ideas about things are different.People naturally value their ideas more than they value the ideas of others.This causes each person in the relationship to constantly try to convince the other that their ideas are worthy and that they are worthy of love.A relationship with constant disagreement and a consistent effort to convince the other they deserve their love, without a social network for support, is not likely to be a long-term relationship.
Experts suggest that the way to overcome this is to have a new identity.After securing themselves in the relationship, the partners develop new relational identities that are uniquely and mutually theirs as an interracial couple.This new identity provides the support that is needed to make a relationship succeed.

In addition to this, there is the growing mobility of people since World War II. As families move away from their stable community, their friends of many years, their extended family relationships, the informal flow of information is cut off, and with it the confidence that information will be available when needed and will be trustworthy and reliable has lost. The almost unconscious flow of information about the simplest aspects of living can be cut off. Thus, things once learned subconsciously through the casual communications of the extended family must be consciously learned.
Adding to social changes today is an enormous stockpile of information, The individual now has more information available than any generation, and the task of finding that one piece of information relevant to his or her specific problem is complicated, time-consuming and sometimes even overwhelming.
Coupled with the growing quantity of information is the development of technologies which enable the storage and delivery of more information with greater speed to more locations than has ever been possible before. Computer technology makes it possible to store vast amounts of data in machine-readable files, and to program computers to locate specific information, Telecommunications developments enable the sending of messages via television, radio, and very shortly, electronic mail to bombard people with multitudes of messages. Satellites have extended the power of communications to report events at the instant of occurrence. Expertise can be shared worldwide through teleconferencing, and problems in dispute can be settled without the participants leaving their homes and/or jobs to travel to a distant conference site. Technology has facilitated the sharing of information and the storage and delivery of information, thus making more information available to more people.
In this world of change and complexity, the need for information is of greatest importance. Those people who have accurate, reliable up-to-date information to solve the day-to-day problems, the critical problems of their business, social and family life, will survive and succeed. "Knowledge is power" may well be the truest saying and access to information may be the most critical requirement of all people.
The word "it" (Line 3, Para. 2) most probably refers to ______.
A.the lack of stable communities
B.the breakdown of informal information channels
C.the increased mobility of families
D.the growing number of people moving from place to place

and twelve million golfers.These figures would not surprise most people.But many would be surprised to learn that twenty million Americans ride motorcycles (摩托车).Few people realize that motorcycling is fast becoming one of America’s most popular sports.
According to the Cycle News,many kinds of people enjoy motorcycling.They include black people and white people, businessmen, professionals, and blue-collar workers.Among them, about 55% are businessmen, 3% are in the professions and 9% in government service.
Such information is offered by the Cycle News in the hope of improving the general public’s impression of the sport.The public has tended to believe that all motorcyclists are wild and lawless young men.
There are several things about motorcycling that the average citizen dislikes.A motorcyclist’s appearance has something to do with this dislike.Motorcyclists often look dirty; in fact, they are dirty.On the road, there is little to protect them from mud.For practical reasons, they often dress in old clothing which looks much less respectable than the clothing of people who ride in cars.For the same reason, motorcyclists usually wear dark colors.Perhaps this helps to explain why they are sometimes suspected of having bad natures.
Probably motorcycles themselves also produce anger and fear.They are noisy, though some trucks are even noisier.But trucks are acceptable because they perform. a needed service.Motorcycles, on the other hand, make an uncomfortable noise just to give their riders pleasure.Roaring along quiet streets, they wake sleeping families and make babies cry.
Yet, as motorcycling becomes more and more common, it will be interesting to see how people in general feel about the sport.Perhaps it will someday become as “respectable” as tennis or golf.
