   TV is so often a parent’s good friend, keeping kids happily occupied so the grownups can cook dinner, answer the phone, or take a shower. But, 【C1】______, that electronic babysitter is not an educational aid. According to a recent research, babies who watch TV are more likely to have 【C2】______ cognitive development and language at 14 months, especially if they’re watching programs 【C3】______ for adults and older children. It’s surprising that TV-watching made a difference at such a tender age.
   This new study followed 259 lower-income families in New York, most of whom spoke Spanish as their 【C4】______ language at home. Other studies examining higher-income families have come to the same conclusion: TV watching not only isn’t educational, but it seems to 【C5】______ babies’ development.
   Babies who watched 60 minutes of TV daily had developmental 【C6】______ one-third lower at 14 months than babies who weren’t watching that much TV. The 【C7】______ may be due to the fact that when kids and parents are watching TV, they’re missing out on talking, playing, and interactions that are 【C8】______ to learning and development.
   But what about "good" TV, like Sesame Street? The researchers didn’t find any pluses or minuses when 【C9】______ to non-educational programs designed for small children, like SpongeBob SquarePants. Earlier research by some of the same scientists has found that parents whose children watch non-educational TV programs like SpongeBob SquarePants spend less time reading to their children or teaching them. The latest study of educational TV programs like Sesame Street adds more 【C10】______ to a recommendation from the American Academy of Pediatrics that babies under age 2 should watch no TV at all.

选项

答案 L

解析 空格处应填入developmental所修饰的名词。根据空格后的修饰语one-third lower“低1/3”可推测空格处是指分数。此外,上一段首句提及这是一项对纽约259个低收入家庭的新调查,故推测此处指婴儿的发育分数,即通过测验得出的数据,词库中的scores“得分”符合要求,该词不仅指比赛得分,还可以指科学测验中的得分,故选L。goals指进球得分,与developmental“发育的”不能搭配使用,可排除。
