Children wh were behind in their develpment at age 4-5 were almst three times as likely t have been ut f educatin,emplyment,r training at age 16-17,analysis f pupil data has fund.
4-5-ycar-lds in England are assessed by the Early Years Fundatin Stage Prfile,and thse wh reach the bundary f a“gd level f develpment”are cnsidered“schl ready”.
The new study in the jurnal BMC Public Health has fund a significant gap in Nt in Educatin,Emplyment r Training (NEET)utcmes between thse wh were ready and unready fr primary schl.The research drew n data frm mre than 8,000 Bradfrd yung peple whse recrds are linked as part f the Cnnected Bradfrd prject.The research fund that 11%f children wh were nt schl ready went n t be NEET at 16-17, cmpared t just 4%f children wh were schl ready.
Lead authr Dr Matthew Warburtn,Research Officer at Leeds' Schl f Psychlgy, said:"These findings tell us that there are clear,early indicatrs fr children and yung peple being at risk f disadvantage in late adlescence.As schls rutinely cllect this data,the research culd be used t kickstart early interventin in schls based n primary schl readiness."
The research team,which als included academics frm Lancaster University and the Bradfrd Institute fr Health Research,say this shws a clear need fr early interventin by schls t reduce disadvantage in later life.
This eches the message frm a series f N8 Child f the Nrth and Centre fr Yung Lives reprts n the need t put children and yung peple first.Senir authr Dr Amy Atkinsn,Lecturer in the Department f Psychlgy at Lancaster University said:"Data frm the Early Years Fundatin Stage Prfile is readily available fr millins f children and yung peple in England.This infrmatin culd,and shuld,be used t identify pupils at increased risk f becming NEET."

Researchers say they've used cutting-edge gravitatinal wave research t cast new light n a mystery---a 2000-year-ld cmputer,the Antikythera mechanism fund in shipwreck.
Well ver a century after its discvery,researchers at the University f Glasgw say they've used statistical mdeling techniques,riginally designed t analyze gravitatinal waves —ripples in spacetime caused by majr events in the universe such as tw black hles cmbining —t suggest that the Antikythera mechanism was likely used t track the Greek lunar year.In shrt,it's a fascinating cllisin between mdern-day science and the mysteries f an ancient artifact.
In a 2021 paper,researchers fund that previusly discvered and regularly spaced hles in a "calendar ring"were marked t describe the "mtins f the sun,mn,and all five planets knwn in ancient Greeks and hw they were displayed at the frnt as an ancient Greek universe."Nw,in a new study published in the Official Jurnal f the British Hrlgical Institute,University f Glasgw gravitatinal wave researcher Graham Wan and research assciate Jseph Bayley suggest that the ring was likely perfrated (打孔)with 354 hles, which happens t be the number f days in a lunar year.
The team used statistical mdels derived frm gravitatinal wave research,a large-scale physics experiment designed t measure ripples in spacetime millins f light-years frm Earth and Bayesian analysis,a technique using prbability t quantify uncertainty based n incmplete data,t calculate the likely number f hles in the mechanism using the psitins f the surviving hles and the placement f the ring's surviving six fragments.
Surprisingly,the inspiratin fr the study came frm a YuTuber Chris Budiselic,wh has been attempting t physically recreate the ancient mechanism and investigating ways t determine just hw many hles it cntained.
"It's a neat symmetry that we've adapted techniques we use t study the universe tday t understand mre abut a mechanism that helped peple keep track f the heavens nearly tw millennia ag,"Wan said.
"We hpe that ur findings abut the Antikythera mechanism,althugh less supernaturally spectacular than thse made by Indiana Jnes,will help deepen ur understanding f hw this remarkable device was made and used by the Greeks,"Wan sadded.
32.What was the riginal purpse f the statistical mdeling techniques?
A.T study the Antikythera mechanism. B.T investigate ancient artifacts.
C.T track the Greek lunar year. D.T analyze gravitatinal waves.
33.Hw did the researchers calculate the likely number f hles in the mechanism?
A.By using statistical mdels and Bayesian analysis.
B.By bserving the mechanism directly.
C.By asking YuTuber Chris Budiselic.
D.By bserving the physical recreatin f the mechanism.
34.The underlined term“Bayesian analysis”in paragraph 4 refer t a technique .
A.t recreate an ancient mechanism.
B.t measure ripples in spacetime.
C.t calculate uncertainty based n insufficient data.
D.t calculate the psitins f the surviving hles.
35.What is the main idea f the text?
A.Mdern science was ideally cmbined with an ancient artifact.
B.The Antikythera mechanism was discvered in a shipwreck.
C.The mystery f the Antikythera mechanism remains unslved.
D.Gravitatinal wave research revealed the Antikythera mechanismt.

The Butterfly in A Bttle
Pltu was awakened frm a marvellus dream where he was abut t receive the trphy fr winning the inter-schl ftball match.The alarm's lud ring jlted him,but he wasn't t disheartened.
He rushed t his study table where an empty jam bttle held a clurful little butterfly. Catching it had been a hard task as it kept aviding his grasp,but finally he managed withut a net.This butterfly was ging t be part f his bilgy prject in schl.
The bilgy prject required Pltu t submit the study f a living creature every mnth. Mst f his classmates drew diagrams frm their bks as part f this exercise.But Pltu was ging t d smething different.He was ging t present a live creature -this butterfly.
Pltu lved the different clurs n the wings f the butterfly-red,green and blue.Hw beautiful it lked when it fluttered the wings.Pltu had been caring fr it,making hles in the bttle cap fr air and prviding tender leaves fr it t eat.
Excited abut displaying his exhibit t the bilgy teacher,Pltu dressed hurriedly,and left fr schl.His schl was walking distance frm his huse.He tk a shrtcut thrugh the backyard f Sinha aunty's huse,a stretch he lved walking thrugh.The breeze was very pleasant as it had rained slightly the previus night.The garden smelt f sweet-smelling flwers.Pltu glanced at his bttle every nw and then and smiled at the butterfly fluttering its wings.
When he reached schl,the gate wasn't whlly pen yet.Fr nce,Pltu was early t schl.A few bys were playing ftball n the field.Any ther day wuld have seen Pltu jining them withut a secnd thught.But tday,he walked straight int his class.He pened the windw and placed the bttle n the windwsill(窗台).
The glden rays f the sun streamed thrugh the glass,n the delicate wings f the butterfly,and added brightness t them.Pltu's butterfly lked simply grgeus.In a few minutes,the area was full f bys,watching it in surprise.
