Q: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Money, jewels and important documents are not the only valuable placed in banks these days. Some mothers store their breast milk in banks. There're ten breast banks set up across the United States, where mothers can donate their extra milk for other women's babies.

Milk donations in the United States work like this: Donors must be willing to provide almost three liters of breast milk. They freeze the milk and take it to the station. There, employees warm the milk and mix it with other mothers' milk. Then, the milk is heated to kill bacteria. After that, the technicians test samples of all the milk to make sure it is safe and healthful. The milk is re-frozen and sent to the main milk bank. The milk bank transports the milk to hospitals to feed premature or sick babies. Donors are tested for diseases before any milk is accepted. _ are not permitted to smoke tobacco,...
