问题     New thinking about the newborn’s brain, feelings and behavior are changing the way we look at parenting. Bookstore shelves are 【S1】______ with titles purporting (声称) to help you make your baby smarter, happier, healthier, stronger, better-behaved and everything else you can imagine in what I call a shopping-cart approach to infant development. But experts are now beginning to look more broadly, in an integrated 【S2】______ , at the first few months of a baby’s life. And so should you.
    Psychological theorists are moving away from focusing on single areas such as 【S3】______ development, genetic inheritance, cognitive(认知的) skills or emotional 【S4】______ , which give at best a limited view of how babies develop. Instead, they are attempting to synthesize(合成) and 【S5】______ all the separate pieces of the infant-development puzzle. The results so far have been enlightening (启迪意义的), and are beginning to suggest new ways of parenting.
    The most important of the emerging findings is that the key to stimulating emotional and 【S6】______ growth in your child is your own behavior-what you do, what you don’t do, how you scold, how you reward and how you show affection. If the baby’s brain is the hardware, then you, the parents, provide the software. When you understand the hardware (your baby’s brain), you will be better able to design the software (your own behavior) to 【S7】______ baby’s well-being.
    The first two years of life are critical in this 【S8】______ because that’s when your baby is building the mental foundation that will dictate his or her behavior through adulthood. In the first year alone, your baby’s brain grows from about 400g to a stupendous (惊人的，巨大的) 1000g. While this growth and development is in part predetermined by genetic force, exactly how the brain grows is dependent upon emotional 【S9】______ , and that involves you. "The human cerebral cortex (脑皮层) adds about 70% of its final DNA content after birth," reports Allan N. Schore, Ph. D., assistant clinical professor of psychiatry and bio-behavioral sciences at UCLA Medical School, "and this expanding brain is 【S10】______ influenced by early environmental enrichment and social experiences. "
A) identified        B) intellectual      C) specifically         D) crammed
E) directly          F) promote           G) decrease             H) regard
I) characteristic    J) physical          K) crucial              L) attachment
M) fashion           N) interaction       O) integrate
【S7】
