Tracey Hermanstorfer's heart stopped beating and her son Coltyn appeared lifeless after the Caesarean(剖腹产术)section on Christmas Eve. However a few minutes after he was born, both began breathing again. Dr Stephanie Martin told Good Morning America she could not explain how the pair survived. Mrs Hermanstorfer and her husband Mike told the American television show that their baby was now healthy and that they were doing “good” following the drama at Colorado Springs Memorial Hospital.
The couple, who already had two children, had to go into the hospital seven weeks earlier than planned. Her husband, 37, said his wife was tired after receiving an epidural(硬脑膜外麻醉)during the labour(分娩)but after closing her eyes, she “wasn't waking up”．She stopped breathing and she is believed to have suffered a heart attack before her heart stopped beating entirely.
Dr Martin said she was called in and that the outlook was grim（严酷的） since in most situations like this，“despite the best efforts of the team”, the mother was often unable to be revived. In that case doctors then tried to focus on delivering the baby but when he was born he was “completely lifeless”．
Mr. Hermanstorfer told the Associated Press news agency，“I had everything in the world taken from me, and in an hour and a half I had everything given to me.”
Dr Martin said she did not have a“great explanation”for why Mrs Hermanstorfer's heartbeat returned. “Somewhere between four and five minutes she had been without heart rate and had stopped breathing a minute or two prior to her heart stopping，”she said. The doctors were then able to bring the baby back to life, and the mother was alive after that.
Despite tests, she said doctors were still not sure about what had happened. However Mrs Hermanstorfer and her husband Mike have said they believed it was down to a miracle. She said：“I got a second chance in life.”
1.What might have happened to Tracey Hermanstorfer just before her heart stopped beating?
A．She became unconscious.
B．She took a nap.

“Daddy, can I have a piece of cake?” my oldest son asked me.
We had just been to the gym and stopped to 31 at the restaurant.
“No,” I replied, “you don’t need a piece of cake.”
My son 32 15 in a few days. He 33 over 6 feet tall. He is very slim and athletic in shape. It was not always that way. My wife wrote a book about the challenge and 34 of getting him fit. He now takes it 35 and looks as he’s never been overweight in his life.
He had a full plate of 36 and tofu. He didn’t need a piece of cake. Besides, everything in the restaurant is quite 37. Our dinners could have 38 a family of seven at a fast food restaurant. That cake probably cost $5.
He was 39 as he looked at the delicious cakes. I had forgotten that I had walked over to the cake shelf while he was 40 his food from the buffet (自助餐).
I looked at my 41. There sitting on the edge was a piece of 42. I looked at it wondering but also knowing how it got there. “We will divide it,” I said.
A few days later my oldest son was with me again. We stopped at a 43. He ordered a sandwich. I then 44 two sandwiches. He immediately barked, “Can I have two?” He wanted exactly what Daddy had.
Your kids are very likely to put on their plates, exactly what you have on yours, and I think this applies to more than food. Keep your 45 plate with only what you want your kinds to have.
