35、actors of building close relationships are.D 第7页/共12页 Playing is a key part of the learning process for almost all of the children.There are different ways in which children play,but one of the most important is role-playing.This involves a child taking part in an activity during which he or she pre
36、tends(装扮)to be another person.Experts on child development believe that role-playing can increase the connections in childrens brains that help them learn.Language skills are some of the most important aspects of learning.When children role-play,they must work out steps that need to be taken to comp
37、lete a task,and create plans to act out a story.These activities enable children to develop their spoken language skills.They become able to organize others and to give directions.Childrens social skills can also be developed.Children have different roles in group activities.Some are leaders while o

43、ir children manage to control their fears.Role-playing can benefit children in many ways.There is no activity for which young children are better prepared than imaginable play.Nothing is more dependable and risk-free,and the dangers are only pretended.30.According to the passage,children when role-p
