Gilleece looked through camera videos, watching the womans every step in the bar until she went to sit on a bench bar outside and left when her ride arrived. Then a young

19、man approached the bench and put something in his pocket. Gilleece posted several pictures on the bars Facebook page, asking if anybody knew the guy.Within hours, Gilleece got a text from 17-year-old Prather.

20、 the ring but just took the money and threw the wallet off the public docks(码头) into the ocean.Gilleece, unsure whether he believed Prather, told the teen to meet him at the bar. There, Prather said that, not getting along with his family, he had been living in the woods for a week. Gilleece saw him

21、 as a kid rather than a criminal. But the police were already on the case, and because of the missing ring, Prather could face prison. Gilleece planned to employ two divers to search for it. Meanwhile, the police wanted Gilleece to bring the teen to the station. He called them and said, “Hes going t

22、o be at the docks with me tomorrow.”The next day a crowd gathered to watch the two divers search in the waters Prather mentioned. Finally a diver appeared with the wallet, and inside was the ring.

23、ubled by Prather sleeping in the cold woods, Gilleece told the teen he could stay with him and his family until he stood on his own feet.

These experiences affect the development of the brain. When children receive more attention, they often hav

27、e higher IQs. Babies receive information when they see, hear and feel things, which makes connections between different parts of the brain. There are a hundred trillion connections in the brain of a three-year-old child. Researcher Judit Gervain tested how good newborns are at distinguishing differe

28、nt sound patterns. Her researchers produced images of the brains of babies as they heard different sound patterns. For example, one order was mu-ba-ba. This is the pattern “A-B-B”. Another order was mu-ba-ge. This is the pattern “A-B-C”. The images showed that the part of the brain responsible for s

29、peech was more active during the “A-B-B” 7pattern. This shows that babies can tell the difference between different patterns. They also were sensitive to where it occurred in the order.Gervain is excited by these findings because the order of sounds is the building block of words and grammar. “Posit

30、ion is key to language,” she says. “If something is at the beginning or at the end, it makes a big difference: John caught the bear. is very different from The bear caught John.”Researchers led by scientist Patricia Kuhl have found that language delivered by televisions, audio books, the Internet, o

31、r Smartphones no matter how educational doesnt appear to be enough for childrens brain development. They carried out a study of nine-month-old American babies. They expected the first group whod watched videos in Chinese to show the same kind of learning as the second group who were brought face-to-

32、face with the same sounds. Instead they found a huge difference. The babies in the second group were able to distinguish between similar Chinese sounds as well as native listeners.

36、t comes to focusing at work, there is no lack of things to take responsibility for our wandering minds. Refreshing Twitter, scanning the news, talking with colleagues about small beer. But theres one possible cause of frequent distraction. Our work isnt complex enough, and there isnt enough of it.Th

37、is idea isnt popular, especially with those who feel theyre already working busily. Actually complex tasks demand more of our working memory and attention, with little mental distraction. We get bored when our skills go beyond the demands of our work. And we feel anxious when the demands of a task g

38、o beyond our skills. Understanding your skill level, and matching this with a worthy task will make you more likely to be fully devoted to your work. Besides questioning the complexity of tasks, its worth reflecting on whether you have enough work to do in general. If not, youre inviting distraction

39、.Think back to your last deadline. That timeline offers you no distractions like using social media. Our workload tends to expand to fit the time available for the completion of work. Small tasks that should take two hours will take an entire workday if we have that time available. Distractions are

40、to blame for this time trap.A few years ago, after I finished a report on a tight deadline, I continued to be just as busy. I entered my social media accounts when I should have been working. I checked new emails constantly. I felt guilty when I wasnt busy, and I alleviated this guilt by filling my

41、time with busy work.Later I realized busy work couldnt really bring the relief, for the guilt came from the fact that I was working without intention.
