Ⅱ.阅读理解

It looks a bit like the coolers(冷却器)used to keep drinks fresh on a sunny day but the cool box being tested in hot Mozambique serves a higher purpose—saving lives from malaria(疟疾)．

The new cool box is intended to keep malaria medicines at 25℃ or below in poor rural areas without electricity where temperatures can reach 45℃.Its developers hope the cool box will help save some of the one million lives lost to malaria worldwide every year—6,000 of them in Mozambique alone.

“At the beginning，the cool boxes will be used to store malarial drugs such as the rapid diagnostics tests for malaria，”said Parfait Komlan Edah，advisor to John Snow Incorporated，a US company developing the coolers.

“We will change the treatment pattern and procedure because the drugs are expensive and they have to be well preserved to be effective，”he said.

The project is still at an experimental stage.The coolers are currently being tested in three regions of Mozambique—Maputo，Tete and Zambezia.The tests will determine whether the coolers are adopted for use nationwide.

In Mozambique，malaria is the leading cause of death among children and there has been an increase in cases of malaria in recent years.

Faced with the upsurge in malaria，Mozambique's health ministry last year decided to expand the use of rapid diagnostics tests for the disease that can give a result within minutes.

The only trouble was that diagnostics tests have to be stored at temperatures of 25℃ or below and are currently only available in provincial hospitals that have refrigeration facilities.

The solution was to design “evaporative coolers”．The coolers have a water container at the top that is regularly refilled，and it keeps the contents of the box cool by evaporating water from the container.

The cooler project receives some of its funding from the US president's Malaria Initiative，which also supports other activities such as providing mosquito nets and awareness programmes.
