19、dy(抗体) that has saved the lives of 2.4 million babies from miscarriages (流产), retired as a blood donor on May 11.

22、theyre cutting him off now to protect his health.

29、rder was mu-ba-ba. This is the patternA-B-B. Another order was mu-ba-ge. This is the pattern “A-B-C”. The images showed that the part of the brain responsible for speech was more active during the A-B-Bpattern. This shows that babies can tell the difference between different patterns. They also were
30、 sensitive to where it occurred in the order.Gervain is excited by these findings because the order of sounds is the building block of words and grammar. Position is key to language, she says.
