24、 Advantage Bookstore (LAB) chain have changed into important platforms to display local history, culture and folk traditions. These village branches are not just bookstores; they are helping to relieve spiritual poverty and becoming centers for gathering and displaying country culture.To better fit
25、in the lives of local people, each village branch has its own characteristics, like one in Shaxi, southwest Chinas Yunnan province. Many of nearly 20,000 books in the store are associated with the history, geography and folk customs of Yunnan and the Bai people.“Making money is not our only aim. Our

Some turn to the books to find answers to the troubles they face, such
27、as running a business or attracting tourists from big cities. One of the biggest benefits is that it helps provide a healthy environment for childrens growth. “My kids often come to the store.

31、w more sensitive to strangers voices than those of their own moms, new research shows.The researchers studied the brains of 7-to 16-year-olds as they listened to things said by their moms or by unfamiliar women. The words were pure gibberish: teebudieshawlt, keebudieshawlt and peebudieshawlt. Using
32、such meaningless words allowed the scientists to study the voices, not what they were saying. As the kids listened, certain parts of their brains became active. This was especially true in brain areas that help us to find rewards and pay attention.Daniel Abrams, a researcher at Stanford University,
33、says that younger kids brains respond more strongly to their moms voices than to strangers. However, in adolescence(青春期), we show the exact opposite.“These areas in the adolescent brain dont stop responding to moms voices,” Abrams explains. “Its just that unfamiliar voices become more worthy of atte

35、these girls heard their moms voices on the phone.The brain seems to adapt to new needs that come with adolescence. “As we grow up, our survival depends less and less on our moms support,” says Leslie Seltzer, a biological anthropologist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. “Instead, we rely more
