33、don in 1863. At the time， the government was looking for a way to reduce traffic problems in the city of London.

41、 C 【小题 4】 B Many parents watch the news or other shows as children play nearby. But new research shows that even when the television is just background noise， it may be disruptive to a childs normal development. Its estimated that 75 percent of very young children in the United States live in homes

42、where the television is on most of the time， even though the kids often arent watching it. The University of Massachusetts researchers recently studied how TV background noise might affect young children. The study looked at 50 1-， 2-and 3-year-olds. Each child came to a lab with a parent and was al

43、lowed to play for an hour with various toys. For half the time， a television was on in the room， showing the adult game show as well as advertisements.

44、less than a few seconds at a time， and less than once a minute. Even so， the distraction (分心 ) of the background noise had a significant effect on how children at every age played.
