According to a new study, a babys cry can make adults react very quickly, even if they are not related to the baby.Oxford University researchers used the classic game whack-a-mole（打地鼠）for the study. Whack-a-hole requires people to hit one of nine buttons（按钮）. Players must react as quickly as they can to whichever of the buttons that lights up. It is a game that requires speed and accuracy（准确度）.The study invited 40 men and women aged 19 to 59. Some of them had sons or daughters, although none of their children were babies. They played whack a-mole after listening to different sounds, including babies crying, the crying of adults in trouble and birdsongs played at a similar pitch（高音）to the babies cries.The volunteers scores were higher after listening to the sound of crying babies. Men and women had similar scores overall. The results showed that hearing a crying baby can trigger a reaction in adults.Its almost impossible to pay no attention to crying babies on planes. This is true even though there are so many other noises around. said Morten Kringelbach, the scientist who led the study. He added that in the course of human evolution（进化）, taking care of babies has always been an important job for adults. When a baby is hungry, it will cry. As a result, human brains develop a special reaction to a babys cry.26 . According to the story,_ can make adults react very quickly.Abirdsongs tBbabies criesCbabies laughterDthe crying of adults27 .

The man thought that the snake might be the god of the field. He did not give it anything, so he could not get anything from the field.At once he went to bring a bowl of milk and offered the milk to the snake. “God of the field! I didnt know that you live here. Thats why I never gave you anything. Please forgive me. ” Then he went home.The next day, when the man came, he found a gold coin in the bowl near the anthill. From then on, the man gave milk to the snake and found gold coins.One day the man was so busy that he couldnt send milk to the snake. So he asked his son to take care of the snake. The son brought milk to the anthill and gave it to the snake. The next day, when he came back, he found a gold coin in the bowl. After taking the gold coin, he thought, “This anthill must be full of gold coins. I would kill the snake and take them all.”The next day, the son came to the field with milk and a stick.

Do you say yes to the world？Most of us have a habit of saying no to the things we dont like and yes to the things we like. However，everything we face is our life. We wont say yes to the things we do not like，because we are afraid that we will not avoid them forever. But in fact，only through accepting the existence（存在）of what is not working for us，we can begin to change. When we say yes to the world，we begin to believe whatever our situation is，we can work with it. We express belief in ourselves，and the world. We also express a willingness to learn from whatever happens to us，rather than running and hiding when we dont like what we see. Therefore，in one word，saying yes is really good for our life.What will it take to get to the point of saying yes? For some of us, it means dealing with something we cant run away from or refuse, and so we have no choice but to say yes. For others. they might make a decision to say yes to life no matter what happens to them. Saying yes to life might be difficult at first, and even painful at times. However, if we continue to say yes to life, it will be far less difficult in the end. And we will find the joy of being in an active talk to the world with a very powerful word yes. We should say yes to everything that life puts in front of us.
