Children looked after by grandparents while their mothers are at work would be better off in nurseries, a study finds.

It discovered that children in the care of grandparents struggled to socialize with their peers by the age of 3, had significantly more behavioral problems and were behind at key developmental stages compared with those in nurseries. The only clear benefit was their good vocabulary. The latest study of 4,800 children born in 2000 and 2001, was conducted by researchers at the Institute of Education, University of London. All had mothers who worked when their children were babies. Children cared for by grandparents made up over one third of the sample and the researchers said that the differences between this group and the others were considerable. In terms of social skills, boys in the care of grandparents did particularly badly, regardless of social background. The researchers said that other researches suggested that formal childcare with qualified people could help children to develop the social skills needed to get on with their peers and to avoid more serious problems later.

“Children who are looked after by grandparents, on the other hand, spend more time with adults,”said Kirstine and Denise, of the Institute of Education.

The three-year-olds who had been in formal childcare from nine months achieved higher scores in a “school read” assessment(评估) that measured their understanding of colors, letters, numbers, sizes and shapes.

In terms of vocabulary, the children cared for by grannies did well, especially if they had highly educated mothers. “This may, of course, reflect the better vocabulary skills of grandmothers in such families,” said Dr Hansen, research director of the Millennium Cohort Study. “But it may also be partly because grandparents talk to children more than other carers, not only because they have more time but because they make up for a reduction in physical activities with the child.”

10．What does “the sample” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A．A small part of a song from a CD or a record. B．A group of children chosen for the research. C．A small part of something that is examined. D．A small amount of a product for customers to try.

11．Which of the following is NOT related to the finding of the study?

A．Formal childcare with qualified people could avoid more serious problems later. B．Formal childcare makes children have better “school read” ability.
