Kids are born with emotional reactions such

17、as crying, frustration, hunger and pain. But they learn about other emotions as they grow older. Babies are essentially guided by emotions pre-wired into their brains. For instance, their cries are usually an attempt to avoid unpleasant things or to move towards pleasant ones (food, touch, hugs). Li

18、stening to recordings of play songs can maintain six-to nine-month-old babies in a relatively contented or neutral(中性的)state considerably longer than recordings of infant-directed or adult-directed speech.By the time they turn one, toddlers(幼童)begin to understand that certain emotions are associated

19、 with certain situations. At this age, parents can talk to kids about emotions and encourage them to name those emotions. By the time they turn two, kids are able to adopt strategies to deal with difficult emotions. Helping toddlers avoid distressing situations or distracting them from those situati

20、ons is one of the most effective emotion-regulation strategies.Kids experience many emotions during the childhood years. Many secondary emotions come into play at this age as a childs emotions are either validated(验证的)or invalidated, influencing future emotional reactions. Emotion regulation is not

21、just about expressing emotions in a socially appropriate manner. It is a process that involves teaching children to identify emotions, helping them identify what triggers(引起)those emotions, and teaching them to manage those emotions by themselves.

22、ng the childhood years.

26、worlds population live in cities, and by 2050 the UN expects that proportion to reach 68%. This means more homes, roads and other infrastructure. In India alone, a city the size of Chicago will have to be developed every year to meet demand for housing. Such a construction increase is a bad sign for

27、 dealing with climate change, because making steel and concrete, two of the most common building materials, generates around 8% of the worlds CO2 emissions (排放). If cities are to expand and become greener at the same time, they will have to be made from something else.Wood is one of the most promisi

28、ng sustainable (可持续的) alternatives to steel and concrete. It is not, however, everyday wood that is attracting the interest of architects.Rather, it is a material called engineered timber. This is a combination of different layers, each designed to meet the requirements of specific parts such as flo

29、ors, panels and beams (横梁). Designers can use it to provide levels of strength like steel, in a product that is up to 80% lighter. In addition, engineered timber is usually made into large sections in a factory for future use, which reduces the number of deliveries to a construction site.According t

30、o Michael Ramage of the University of Cambridge, a wooden building produces 75% less CO2 than a steel and concrete one of the same size. However, if building with wood takes off, it does raise concern about there being enough trees to go round. But with sustainably managed forests that should not be

31、 a problem, says Dr Ramage. A family-sized apartment requires about 30 cubic metres of timber, and he estimates Europes sustainable forests alone grow that amount every seven seconds. Nor is fire a risk, for engineered timber does not burn easily. Besides, fireproofing layers can be added to the tim

32、ber. All in all, then, it looks as if wood as a building material may get a new lease of life.12Why is India mentioned in paragraph 1?ATo point out the severe pollution.BTo predict the population increase.CTo indicate the high degree of urbanization.DTo show the great need for building materials.13What can be learned about engineered timber?AIt is produced at a low cost.BIt hardly appeals to architects.CIt helps
