They immediately began to tremble.The pair prepared for a long wait. And they t
29、alked.“We discussed things and discussed life. We discussed families. We just tried to keep occupied,” Henderson said.Eventually Coen started hallucinating(有幻觉).

30、ap.He swam for two hours, tired, frustrated and depressed. Then he saw an oil rig(钻探平台) in the distance. He swam, seeing ice and crystal trees in the water.

31、rigs ladder.It was over 50 miles from where they had gone in the water.All he could think of was Coen.

36、al attention to the speech they hear around them.

They will stop crying when they hear a person talking, but not if they hear a bell o
37、r the sound of a rattle. At first, the sounds that a baby notices might be only those words that receive the heaviest emphasis and that often occur at the ends of utterances(讲话，说话). By the time they are six or seven weeks old, babies can detect the difference between syllables pronounced with rising
38、 and falling tones. Very soon, these differences in adult stress and intonation can influence babies emotional states and behavior. Long before they develop actual language comprehension, babies can sense when an adult is happy or angry, attempting to begin or end new behavior, and so on, merely on
39、the basis of clues such as the rate, volume, and melody of adult speech.Adults make it as easy as they can for babies to pick up a language by exaggerating(夸张) such clues.

40、simplified utterances and nonsense sounds, and transformed certain sounds into baby talk. Other researchers have noted that when mothers talk to babies who are only a few months old, they exaggerate the pitch, loudness, and intensity of their words. They also exaggerate their facial expressions, hol
41、d vowels(元音) longer, and emphasize certain words.More significant for language development than their response to general intonation is observation that tiny babies can make relatively fine distinctions between speech sounds.
