Babies who frequently communicate with their caregivers using eye contact and vocalisations(发声)at the

age of one are more likely to develop greater languages skills by the time they reachtwo,according to new

research.

In the study, researchers looked at 11- and 12-month-od babies' vocalisations. gestures and gaze

behaviours ,and at how their caregivers responded to them.To measure he interactions ,the researchers videoed

infants(婴儿)and caregiver at home,and asked them to play as usual.They took those recordings back to the

university

The scientists then used statistical models to find that the best predictor of vocabulary at 24 months was

when infants were seen to use vocalsatioms while looking at their caregiver's face when they were about a year

old.The benefits were even greater when these interactions were followed by responses from the caregiver.

The statistics showed that at 19 months,children had an average of about 100 words.Those who exhibited the

beneficial interactive behaviour earlier in life were seen to have an average of about 30 extra words.

"The message of this paper is thatitis the result of a joint effort; noticing what your child is attending to and

talking to them about it will support their language development." said McGillion, a co-author of the work.

"The joy of this message is that that can happen in any context... across any part of your day.It's not

something that requires special equipment or even lots of time.I can happen when you're doing the laundry,for

example—when you're taking out the socks, you can talk about socks...in the park, in the car, at mealtimes,at

bathtimes.This finding can be used in any context,"added McGillion.

"This is a developmental snapshot in the first year of life, but children are constantly growing and changing

and so are their behaviours. It would be interesting to look at these sorts of behaviours again as children progress

through the second year of life to see what's happening there,"said Donnellan,the lead author on the study.

4. How did the researchers get the findings?

A. By interacting with babies.

B. By asking babies to vocalize.

C. By analyzing relevant recordings.

D. By referring to the previous statistics.
