An Observation and an Explanation
It is worth looking at one or two aspects of the way a mother behaves towards her baby. The usual fondling, cuddling and cleaning require little comment, but the position in which she holds the baby against her body when resting is rather revealing. Careful studies have shown the fact that 80 percent of mothers hold their infants in their left arms, holding them against the left side of their bodies. If asked to explain the significance of this preference most people reply that it is obviously the result of the predominance of right-handedness in the population. By holding the babies in their left arms, the mothers keep their dominant arm free for manipulations. But a detailed analysis shows that this is not the case. True, there is a slight difference between right-handed and left-handed females; but not enough to provide adequate explanation. It emerges that 83 percent of right-handed mothers hold the baby on the left side, but so do 78 percent of left-handed mothers. In other words, only 22 percent of the left-handed mothers have their dominant hands free for actions. Clearly there must be some other, less obvious explanation.
The only other clue comes from the fact that the heart is on the side of the mother’s body. Could it be that the sound of her heart beat is the vital factor? And in What way? Thinking along these lines it was argued that perhaps during its existence inside the body of the mother the unborn baby get used to the sound of the heart beat. If this is so, then the re-discovery of this familiar sound after birth might have a claiming effect on the infant, especially as it has just been born into a strange and frighteningly new world, if this is so then the mother would, somehow, soon arrive at the discovery that her baby is more at peace if held on the left against her heart than on the right.
选项
A、Right
B、Wrong
C、Not mentioned
答案
A
解析
题干分析:大意:我们能通过母亲把孩子靠着身体抱着的姿势了解很多东西。从句意来看是概括性的话语而且与文章的主题相关,所以推测可能需要考牛进行推断。利用题干中出现的核心结构“holds her baby against her body”作为答案线索,找到答案相关句:It is worth looking at one or two aspects of the way a mother behaves towards her baby.The usual fondling, cuddling and cleaning require little comment but the position in which she holds the baby against her body when resting is rather revealing.划线句说“母亲把孩子靠着身体抱着的姿势很具有启迪性”,可见问题句的说法与该句的说法一致。
