D Babies Preference Baby girls make their way directly for dolls as soon as they can crawl(爬行), while boys will head for cars, a study has shown. The findings, the first to show differences in very young babies, suggest there i
41、s a biological basis to their preferences. Psychologists Dr. Brenda Todd from City University London carried out an experiment involving 90 babies aged 9 months to 36 months. The babies were allowed to choose from seven toys. Some were typically boys toys: a car, a digger, a ball and a blue teddy. T
42、he rest were girls toys: a pink teddy, a doll and a cooking set. They were placed a meter away from the toys; and could pick whichever toy they liked; their choice and the amount of time they spent playing with each toy were recorded. Of the youngest children (9 to 14 months）, girls spent significan
43、tly longer playing with the doll than boys, and boys spent much more time with the car and ball than the girls did. Among the two and three-year-olds, girls spent 50 percent of the time playing with the doll while only two boys briefly touched it. The boys spent almost 90 percent of their time playi
44、ng with cars, which the girls barely touched. There was no link between the parents view on which toys were more appropriate for boys or girls and the childrens choice. Dr. Brenda Todd said, “Children of this age are already exposed to much socialization. Boys may be given toys that go while girls g
45、et toys they can care for, which may help shape their preference. But these findings agree with the former idea that children show natural interests in particular kinds of toys.

48、 are, the more obvious their preference is. 61. What conclusion did Dr. Brenda Todd draw from the study? A. Adults purposely influence their babies preference. B. Babies preference is less affected by social surroundings. C. Baby girls preferring warmer colors will be warm-hearted. D. Baby boys preferring to moving toys will be good at hunting. 62.
