问题     Regular child care provided outside home or by someone other than the mother does not in itself undermine healthy emotional connections between mothers and their 15-month-old infants, according to a long-term national study. The finding holds even if care begins during the first 3 months after birth and runs for 30 hours or more per week.
    Among infants who receive unkind and unresponsive care from their mothers, however, the mother-child relationship may be damaged. "This research helps us put apart complexities regarding child care that have not previously been studied in detail," contends Jay Belsky, a psychologist.
    The investigation consists of 1,153 children and their families living in or near Boston. The youngsters, no more than 1 month old when they entered the study in 1991, will be tracked until the age of 7. Experimenters administered questionnaires to mothers in their homes and videotaped baby caretakers interacting with the kids at ages 1, 6, and 15 months. Independent observers rated the quality of each child care efforts and noted infant nervousness. Unlike most previous studies, this one allows researchers to observe each caretaker’s personality at child nursing, and kids’ emotional reaction by the equipment.
Which of the following is not TRUE of the investigation?

选项 A、It will last at least 7 years.
B、Cooperation from the mothers is also necessary.
C、Some independent observers play a part.
D、Researchers paid site visits to see a caretaker’s personality and kids’ emotional reaction.

答案D

解析 本题的关键是将每一个选项的内容在短文的最后一段进行对照确认。前3个选项的内容都可以找到依据,而D选项的意思不同于短文最后一个句子的意思,原文中是通过看录像而非去现场进行观察。
