After in-depth understanding and analysis of these points, I reconstructed the structure of the whole text, using different grammars, sentence patterns, and structures to express the same point, and added my own understanding and analysis. At the same time, I adjusted the subject-verb-object order of the sentence, cited other materials appropriately, and added more details and specific content to strengthen the originality of the article and improve the logic of the paragraph structure. Here's my reconstructed article: A few attacks of cold air immediately made the body feel the slaughter of winter. Outdoors in winter, down jackets are really a good thing; But in the car seat, down jackets are a top "killer"! NBC once reported a shocking car seat crash test: the test simulated a speed of 30 miles (about 48 kilometers) per hour, and the results showed that the fake doll in the down jacket "flew" directly out of the car seat.

The dummy doll wearing intimate clothing only trembled slightly, and the safety seat still played a good protective role. Obviously the clothes are well dressed and the seat belts are also well fastened, why can't you protect the child well? Minyan Cui, Chief Representative and Executive Director of Global Child Safety Group China, explains why down jackets are not safe. He pointed out that the down jacket is fluffy and there is a lot of air filling inside. When a collision occurs, the thick clothes are rapidly compressed and deformed under the strong collision force. The original filling space is instantly released, and the seat belt on the car seat suddenly becomes loose. That is to say, in the event of a collision, the down jacket is "deflated", and the distance between the seat belt and the child's body increases, and it can no longer play a restraining role. At the same time, the smooth fabric of the down jacket, coupled with the strong inertia when braking sharply, it is not difficult to understand that the child is thrown out.

In addition to down jackets, other loose or smooth fabrics such as cold clothing and cotton clothing common in winter are also not recommended to be worn in car seats. So, how can you tell if your child's coat is suitable for wearing in a car seat? Cui introduced a simple test method: First, have your child wear this dress or coat, sit in the car seat, and tighten the restraint belt. Then, gently pinch the band with two fingers, if you are not able to pinch the excess band, it indicates that it has been tightened. Next, unbuckle the restraint strap, lift your child out of the seat, and remove the dress or coat. Then put your child back in the car seat and fasten the restraints.

At this time, in the absence of adjusting the restraint belt, use two fingers to gently pinch the restraint belt, if you can pinch the excess restraint belt, then it means that the clothes or coat taken off are too thick to make the restraint belt really restrain the child, you need to take off the child's coat, let the child use the car seat again. If you can't pinch the extra restraint belt, take off the clothes or coat so that your child can fit in the car seat. How can I keep my child warm and safe in the car seat in winter? When purchasing a car seat, consider purchasing a type that can be preheated and has a constant temperature. The bracket part of the infant seat can be taken to the room when not in use, so that the seat is kept at room temperature, which can reduce the temperature of the child in the car. Parents can get in the car in advance, turn on the warm air first, and let the car warm up. Dress your child in close-fitting and thin clothing, as well as hats, gloves, socks, etc.

When the thick jacket is in the car, it should be removed before sitting in the car seat. If you feel cold, you can always have a blanket in the car or take off your coat and put it over your child. But be sure to fasten the restraint straps inside the car seat before putting on a blanket or jacket. Finally, Cui Minyan reminded all parents that before the child sits in the safety seat, parents must check whether the fabric of the clothes is too smooth and whether the filling of the clothes is fluffy. If wearing fluffy and smooth coats, parents must take them off before sitting in the car seat and fastening the seat belt. In winter, if you plan to go out with your baby, you need to go out earlier to prepare, because there will be more things to prepare in winter than in summer. And in winter mornings, it is dark and foggy, so you usually need to drive slowly to ensure safety.
