Each child was asked to【C9】______tasks that【C10】______pulling a string to ring a bell, placing three cubes in a cup, matching pictures and sorting pegs by color first at 10 months and【C11】______when they were 2 years old. At this time, researchers discovered that during the 14-month window between the aptitude tests, gaps in【C12】______development had started to occur. Children from wealthier families had started to consistently outperform those from poorer ones.
Researchers【C13】______to disprove a genetic explanation by【C14】______the aptitude tests of each set of twins.
The【C15】______of the comparison is that children’s genetic【C16】______is oppressed by poverty, though the study stopped short of drawing a scientific【C17】______as to what specifically was causing the achievement【C18】______. Researchers did assume that,【C19】______speaking, poorer parents may not have the time or【C20】______to spend playing with their children in stimulating ways.
