Independent observers rated the quality of each child care efforts and noted infant nervousness.“独立观察者对每次照顾孩子的行为进行评级,并且记录孩子是否有紧张情绪。”D,“研究人员到现场访查,以了解抚养者的个性特点与孩子的情绪反应。”文中说到,研究人员通过观看视频的方式进行了解,因此此项与文意不符,选D。

二、词汇与语法

11、The hurricane left, _______ the ruins to this area.

C、his being passed D、to pass 参考答案:A 解析:

A、capable of B、able to C、enabled to D、able of 参考答案:A 解析:

只有capable of 可接something。
