“Yu came! I’m s happy,” she said. “This mrning 1 saw the diner is clsed and thught maybe yu will cme.”

“And this—” She set dwn bwls f what lked like little half-mn pastries -“is Ukrainian stuffed dumplings. These have cabbage filling; thse have ptat. N crane tday.”

Babies dn’t learn t talk just frm hearing sunds. They are lip (嘴唇) readers t. It happens during the perid when a baby’s babbling (咿呀声) slwly changes frm unclear vices int that first “mama” r “dada”. The babies have t find ut hw t shape their lips t make the sunds they are hearing, accrding t develpmental psychlgist David Lewkwicz f Flrida Atlantic University, wh led the study.
Clearly it desn’t take them t lng t understand the mvements that match basic sunds. By their first birthdays, babies start changing back t lk yu in the eye again. It ffers mre clues that quality face-time with babies is very imprtant fr speech develpment mre than, say, turning n the latest baby DVD．
But Lewkwicz went a step further. He and his student Amy Hansen Tift tested nearly 180 babies, grups f them at ages 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 mnths. Hw? They shwed vides f a wman speaking in English r French t babies f English speakers. They fund that when the speaker used English, the 4-mnth-ld babies gazed (凝视) mstly int her eyes. The 6-mnth-ld babies spent equal amunts (数量) f time lking at the eyes and the muth. The 8-mnth-ld babies and 10-mnth-ld babies studied mstly the muth. At 12 mnths, attentin started changing back tward the speaker’s eyes.
But what happened when these babies are used t English heard French? The 12-mnth-ld babies studied the muth lnger, just like yunger babies. They needed the extra infrmatin t understand the new sunds. That fits with research int bilingualism (双语) that shws babies’ brains adjust (调整) themselves t tell the differences between the sunds f their first language ver ther languages in the first year f life.
The cntinued lip reading shws the l-year-ld babies clearly still are fit fr learning. Babies are s hard t study, says Duke University cgnitive scientist Greg Appelbaum, wh fund the research s fantastic that he wants t knw mre.
18．Accrding t the first paragraph, babies ________.
A．might get its vice “mama” by lip readingB．like t find ut hw t shape their lips
C．learn t talk just frm hearing the sundsD．cmmunicate by using bdy languages
19．What is necessary in develping babies’ speech accrding t Lewkwicz?
A．Playing baby DVDs nearby.B．Teaching babies t read English.
C．Speaking with babies face t face.D．Speaking different languages in frnt f babies.
20．Which f the fllwing shws the right change f babies’ eye gaze accrding t the text?
A．B．
C．D．
21．What wuld be the best title f the text?
A．Babies Have Different Methds t Talk.
