Yung kids’ brains are very sensitive(敏感的) t their mms’ vices, science has shwn. But as kids grw int teens, everything changes. Teenagers’ brains are nw mre sensitive t strangers’ vices than thse f their wn mm’s, new research shws.
The researchers studied the brains f 7-t 16-year-lds as they listened t things said by their mms r by unfamiliar wmen. The wrds were pure gibberish: teebudieshawlt, keebudieshawlt and peebudieshawlt. Using such meaningless wrds allwed the scientists t study the vices, nt what they were saying. As the kids listened, certain parts f their brains became active. This was especially true in brain areas that help us t find rewards and pay attentin.
Daniel Abrams, a researcher at Stanfrd University, says that yunger kids’ brains respnd mre strngly t their mms’ vices than t strangers. Hwever, in adlescence(青春期), we shw the exact ppsite.
“These areas in the adlescent brain dn’t stp respnding t mms’ vices,” Abrams explains. “It’s just that unfamiliar vices becme mre wrthy f attentin. Here’s why: As kids grw up, they widen their scial cnnectins beynd their family. S their brains need t begin paying mre attentin t that wider wrld.”
But mm’s vices still have special pwer, especially in times f stress, a 2011 study with girls shwed. Levels f stress drpped when these girls heard their mms’ vices n the phne.
The brain seems t adapt t new needs that cme with adlescence. “As we grw up, ur survival depends less and less n ur mm’s supprt,” says Leslie Seltzer, a bilgical anthrplgist at the University f Wiscnsin-Madisn. “Instead, we rely mre and mre n ur friends and thers clser t ur wn age.”
“S while bth teens and their parents may smetimes feel annyed, that’s OK,” Abrams says. “This is the way the brain is wired, and there’s a gd reasn fr it.”
32.What des the underlined wrd “gibberish” in paragraph 2 refer t?
A. Questin. B. Stry. C. Saying. D. Nnsense.
33.Why d teens becme mre sensitive t unfamiliar vices?
A. They need mre cnnectins. B. They desire real understanding.
C. They are tired f their mms. D. They have mre energy t spare.
34.What are mms’ vices like t teens accrding t the 2011 study?
A. Exciting. B. Unpleasant. C. Cmfrting. D. Strange.
35.What is Daniel Abrams’ pinin n teens’ change in their vice preference?
A. It deserves scientific preventin. B. It is discuraging and prblematic.
C. It is nrmal and understandable. D. It negatively affects their grwth.

After a while, she calmed dwn and tld me the necklace was a gift frm her dear grandma wh died 10 years ag. “Thank yu. Never can yu imagine hw sad I was when I lst it.” she sbbed.” It is the nly reminder f the happy ld days between us.” She thanked me again and gifted me a bag f candies.
