For reasons of safety and ease of maintenance, Washington and dozens of other communities are building rubber sidewalks made 76 ground-up tires of cars and bikes.

That, 78 , could reduce the number of slip-and-fall complaints made 79 uneven pavements. The shock-absorbing surface also happens to be easier on the joints of slow runners and more forgiving when someone slips or falls.

Judging from the experiment, of Fredrick II in the thirteenth century, it 76 . Hoping to discover what language a child would 77 if he heard no mother tongue, he told the nurses to keep silent.
All the babies died before 78 first year. Without good mothering, in the first year of life, especially, the 79 to survive is seriously influenced.
Today no such severe lack exists as 80 ordered by Fredrick II.
Nevertheless，some children are still 81 in speaking. Most often the 82 for this is that the mother is insensitive to the signals of the baby; 83 brain is made to learn language rapidly. If these sensitive periods are neglected, the ideal time for 84 skills passes, and they might never be learned so easily again. A bird learns to sing and to fly rapidly at the 85 time, but the process is slow and hard once the critical stage has passed.
Experts suggest that speech stages are reached in a fixed order and at a constant age, but there are cases where speech has started late in a child who eventually turns out to be clever.

Humans fall into two types when it comes to biological clock: the early-to-bed and early-to-rise or the late-night-loving who wake up long after the dawn. As any
parent knows, teenagers may take the 76 to extremes. But their oversleeping does not relax them.Some researchers say: \"Biology is to blame.\"
The researchers surveyed the sleep habits of 25,000 Germans. 77 from 8 to 90, and found that as the teenage years wear on, the hour when kids go to bed and get up drifts later and later. It's not that they'er sleeping more. 78 , it's that their living clocks are twisted. However, when they are around age 20, the pattern reverses. The clocks tick 79 ,and young adults begin to go to sleep and wake up earlier and earlier. Eventually, their clocks go along with 80 of older people.
The quick change may mark the biological end of teenage years. A difference 81 the timing in man and in woman points to a biological cause, perhaps a hormonal effect, Because the living clock is 82 by exposure to sunlight, the researchers suspect the many hours some kids 83 staying in their dark rooms could push the clocks even later'--a pattern that may be more common in industrialzd societies.
