【提要】考研測(cè)試信息 : 2018考研英語(yǔ)拓展閱讀：大腦測(cè)試預(yù)測(cè)孩子的未來(lái)
Brain tests at the age of three appear to predict a child’s future chance of success in life, say researchers. Low cognitive test scores for skills like language indicate less developed brains, possibly caused by too little stimulation in early life, they say.
研究人員說(shuō)，三歲時(shí)的大腦測(cè)試似乎預(yù)示著一個(gè)孩子未來(lái)在生活中獲得成功的機(jī)會(huì)。他們說(shuō)，低語(yǔ)言能力的認(rèn)知測(cè)試分?jǐn)?shù)意味著大腦不太發(fā)達(dá)，可能是由于早期生活中的刺激太少。
The US researchers from Duke University say the findings highlight the importance of early life experiences and interventions to support vulnerable youngsters.

Although the study followed people in New Zealand, the investigators believe that the results could apply to other countries. They followed the lives of more than 1,000 children. Those who had low test scores for language, behavioural, movement and cognitive skills at three years old went on to account for more than 80% of crimes, and received 66% of social welfare payments in adulthood.
雖然這項(xiàng)研究追蹤的是住在新西蘭的'人，但是研究人員認(rèn)為結(jié)果可能也適用于其他國(guó)家。他們追蹤了1000多個(gè)孩子的生活。那些在三歲時(shí)語(yǔ)言能力、行為能力、運(yùn)動(dòng)能力和認(rèn)知能力的測(cè)試成績(jī)低的人，占犯罪的80%，并且在成年后獲得了66%的社會(huì)福利金。

The researchers found that a similar proportion of middle class children who scored low in tests when they were three also went on to experience difficulties when they were older.

The researchers stress that the outcomes are not set at the age of three. The course of their lives could potentially be changed if they receive support later in life.
研究人員強(qiáng)調(diào)，結(jié)果不是在三歲時(shí)設(shè)定的。如果他們?cè)谏笃诘玫街С�，他們的生活過(guò)程可能會(huì)改變。
