问题     When a human infant is born into any community in any part of the
world it has two things in common with any infant, provided neither of them          【B1】 ________
have been damaged in any way either before or during birth. Firstly, and             【B2】 ________
most obviously, new born children are completely helpless. Apart from a
powerful capacity to pay attention to their helplessness by using sound, there       【B3】 ________
is nothing the new born child can do to ensure his own survival. Without
care from some other human being or beings, be it mother, grandmother, or
human group, a child is very unlikely to survive. This helplessness of human
infants is in marked contrast with the capacity of many new born animals to
get on their feet within minutes of birth and run with herd within a few             【B4】 ________
hours. Although young animals are certainly in risk ,sometimes for weeks             【B5】 ________
or even months after birth, compared with the human infant they very quickly
grow the capacity to fend for them.                                                  【B6】 ________
    It is during this very long period in which the human infant is totally
dependent on the others that it reveals the second feature which it shares           【B7】 ________
with all other undamaged human infants, a capacity to learn language. For
this reason, biologists now suggest that language be "species specific" to the       【B8】 ________
human race, that is to say, they consider the human infant to be genetic             【B9】 ________
programmed in such way that it can acquire language.                                 【B10】 ________
    This suggestion implies that just as human beings are designed to see
three-dimentionally and in colour, and just as they are designed to stand
upright rather than to move on all fours, so they are designed to learn and
use language as part of their normal developments as well-formed
human beings.
选项
答案在any与infant之间加other。
解析 若说any infant，则应包括it所指的a human infant，如果这样，讨论二者之间的共同性就不符合逻辑。
