Some
parents
will
buy
any
high-tech
toy
if
they
think
it
will
help
their
child,
but
researchers
said puzzles
help children with math-related skills.
Psychologist Susan Levine, an expert on
mathematics development in young children at the
University of Chicago, found children
who play with puzzles between ages 2 and
4
later develop
better spatial skills. Puzzle play was
found to be a significant predictor of cognition
(
认知
)
after
controlling for differences in
parents
’
income, education
and the amount of parent talk,
Levine
said.
The
researchers
analyzed
video
recordings
of
53
child-
parent
pairs
during
everyday
activities
at
home
and
found
children
who
play
with
puzzles
between
26
and
46
months
of
age
have
better
spatial
skills when assessed
at 54 months of age.
“The
children
who
played
with
puzzles
performed
better
than
those
who
did
not,
on
tasks
that
assessed their ability to rotate
(
旋转)and translate shapes,”
Levine said in a statement.
The
parents
were
asked
to
interact
with
their
children
as
they
normally
would,
and
about
half
of children in the study played with
puzzles at one time. Higher-income parents tended
to have
children play with puzzles more
frequently, and both boys and girls who played
with puzzles had
better spatial skills.
However, boys tended to play with more complex
puzzles than girls, and
the parents of
boys provided more spatial language and were more
active during puzzle play than
parents
of girls.
The findings were
published in the journal
Developmental
Science.
24. In which aspect
do children benefit from puzzle play
A. Building confidence.
B. Developing spatial
skills.
C. Learning self-
control.
D. Gaining high-tech
knowledge.
did Levine take
into consideration when designing her
experiment
A.
Parents
’
age.
B.
Children
’
s
imagination.
C.
Parents
’
education.
D. Child-parent
relationship.
26. How do
boys differ from girls in puzzle play
A. They play with puzzles more
often.
B. They tend to talk
less during the game.
C.
They prefer to use more spatial
language.
D. They are likely
to play with tougher puzzles.
27. What is the text mainly
about
A. A mathematical
method.
B. A scientific

C. A woman

D. A teaching

When
you
were
trying
to
figure
out
what
to
buy
for
the
environmentalist
on
your
holiday
list,
fur
probably
didn
’
t
cross
your
mind.
But
some
ecologists
and
fashion
(
时装
)
enthusiasts
are
trying
to bring back the
market for fur made from nutria
(
海狸鼠
).
Unusual
fashion
shows
in
New
Orleans
and
Brooklyn
have
showcased
nutria
fur
made
into
clothes
in
different
styles.
“It
sounds
crazy
to
talk
about
guilt
-free
fur
---unless
you
understand
that
the nutria are destroying vast wetlands
every year”,
says Cree McCree, project
director of
Righteous Fur.
Scientists in Louisiana were so
concerned that they decided to pay hunters
$$
5 a tail. Some
of the fur ends up in the fashion shows
like the one in Brooklyn last month.
Nutria were brought there from
Argentina by fur farmers and let go into the wild.
“The
ecosystem
down
there
can
’
t
handle
this
non-
native
species
(
物
种
).
It
’
s
destroying
the
environment. It
’
s
them or us.
The fur trade
kept nutria in check for
decades
，
but when the market
for nutria collapsed in
the late
1980s
，
the cat-sized animals
multiplied like crazy.
Biologist
Edmond
Mouton
runs
the
nutria
control
program
for
Louisiana.
He
says
it
’
s
not
easy
to
convince people that nutria fur is green, but he
has no doubt about it. Hunters bring in more
than 300,000 nutria tails a year, so
part of Mouton
’
s job these
days is trying to promote fur.
Then
there
’
s
Righteous
Fur
and
its
unusual
fashion.
Model
Paige
Morgan
says
，“To
give
people
a guilt-free option
that they can wear without someone throwing paint
on them
—
I think
that
’
s
going to
be a massive thing,
at least here in
New York.”
Designer Jennifer Anderson
admits it
took
her
a while
to come around to
the opinion that using nutria
fur
for her
creations is morally
acceptable. She
’
s
trying to come up with a lable to attach to nutria
fashions to show it is
eco-
friendly.

purpose of the fashion shows in New Orleans and
