8. small differences
[定位] 由题干中的visual palette和 notice等可以定位到第二个小标题下第四段第三句话 They have a surprisingly visual palette, which enables them to notice small differences. . .
[精解] 此处需要填入名词性成分作notice的宾语。根据原文,这块调色板能够使婴儿注意到细微的差别。题干将原文中的enable them to notice替换为help him to notice,可知此处应填写small differences。
9. their /babies' faces and body language
[定位] 由题干中的challenges和reading定位到第三个小标题下首段第二句Since the subjects can't speak for themselves, figuring out what's going on inside their heads is often a matter of reading their faces and body language.
[精解] 此处需要填入名词性成分作 reading的宾语。从原文可知,因为作为研究对象的婴儿们不会为自己的行为进行解释,所以研究者要想了解婴儿在想什么,就得通过观察他们的脸部表情和身体语言。题干将原文中的figuring out替换为obtain,所以可得出答案their /babies' faces and body language。
10. laser eye tracking
[定位] 由题干中的more precise reading 和 EEGs 等可以定位到第三个小标题下首段最后一句 More recently, scientists have added EEGs and laser eye tracking, which allow more precise readings.
[精解] 此处需要填入名词性成分来和EEGS并列。从原文可知,近来科学家们在研究婴儿心智和情感时采用了EEGs技术和激光眼搜寻技术,通过这些技术可以得到很精确的结果。题干将原文中的allow more precise readings 替换为in order to gain more precise readings, 所以答案为laser eye tracking。
