26、oy reading, can help encourage children to pick up more books, a new study suggests.Toys sleepover programs are designed to get children interested in books. Children take their toys to a library for the night. At this point, workers and volunteers take photos of the toys which explore the library a
27、nd read books. The next day, the children collect their toys and the photos of what the toys did during the night. They are given the books their toys chose to read.It was found that before the sleepover the children did not spend time looking at the books in their play area at preschool. Immediatel
28、y after the sleepover, the number of children who read to the toys was higher than the number who did not, but after three days the effect decreased gradually.The researchers also tested a method for sustaining the effect. They reminded the children of the sleepover a month later, by hiding the toys
29、 and showing them the photos again the next day. This simple method brought an increase in the number of children reading to their toys.The study proves for the first time that children who take part in sleepover programs read picture books to their toys more. “We wanted to know if there really was
30、an effect, and if so, how long it lasts. Surprisingly, not only did the children show interest in the books, but they also began to read to their toys. This means that a new behavior pattern appeared that the children hadnt had before. We did not expect anything like this,” said one of the researche
31、rs.Reading is important for the development of childrens language skills and imagination. When parents read to their children, it is a passive way of reading for the child.

35、 The CuteCircuit company has stepped up the technology beat and invented the SoundShirt, which was designed specifically for people who are deaf or hard of hearing. How does this incredible shirt work?First, lets talk about a little science. People who have either all or some hearing loss dont actua
36、lly listen to music the way that hearing people do, but they can feel it. Sound is made up of vibrations, called sound waves, which hearing people can hear through their ears with the help of the brain. Whats really cool is that deaf people sense vibrations in the part of the brain that others use f
37、or hearing!So how is this remarkable technology able to function? First, CuteCircuit had to figure out a way to send signals to the body, kind of like how you can feel when your phone vibrates in silent mode. Those connections the body can feel are called haptics, a use of technology that simulates
38、the senses of touch and motion. The SoundShirt has tiny sensors woven into the shirt to pick up sound and transfer signals to the brain and body.To test this music-to-shirt-to-wearers brain connection, CuteCircuit set microphones around the stage of a symphony orchestra. The shirts computer system d
39、igitally received the sounds coming from the instruments. Then the sensors, working like little motors, changed the signals into vibrations and the shirt wearers brain did the rest.The SoundShirt lets people who are deaf or hard of hearing enjoy music in a unique way. The very deep musical sound, or
40、 pitch, of instruments like drums and basses vibrates in the lower part of the shirt. Higher pitched sounds from instruments like the flute or violin vibrate higher, around the neck and arms. As the music plays, the sensations combine while the brain gets to work putting together all the different v
41、ibrations, allowing the wearer to “hear” the concert.You might think this innovation (创新) would look like something out of a science fiction movie, but in fact, these shirts are wireless! And the decorative laser-lined design on the shirt looks like an image of sound waves.Technologys purpose is to
42、help people and make life better. Think of all the amazing things designers, engineers, and producers of wearable tech will be able to do for humankind.32. Whats the passage mainly about?A. Deep musical sounds from drums vibrate in the lower part of the SoundShirt. B. The SoundShirt lets people who
