(40 points)Text 1 As any plane passenger will confirm, a crying baby is almost impossible to ignore, no matter how hard you try. Now scientists believe they may have worked out why. A babys cry pulls at the heartstrings(扣人心弦) in a way while other cries dont, researchers found.Researchers found that a babys cry can trigger unique emotional responses in the brain, making it impossible for us to ignore themwhether we are parents or not. Other types of cries, including calls of animals in great pain, fail to get the same response, suggesting the brain is programmed to respond specifically to a babys cry.A team of Oxford University scientists scanned the brains of 28 men and women as they listened to a variety of calls and cries. After 100 milliseconds roughly the time it takes to blink(眨眼) two parts of the brain that respond to emotion lit up. Their response to a babys cry was particularly strong. The response was seen in both men and womeneven if they had no children.Researcher Dr Christine Parsons said, “You might read that men should just notice a baby and step over it and not see it, but its not true. There is a special processing in men and women, which makes sense from an evolutionary(演化的) view that both men and women would be responding to these cries.” The study was in people who were not parents, yet they are all responding at 100ms to these particular cries, so this might be a fundamental response present in all of us regardless of parental status.Fellow researcher Katie Young said it may take a bit longer for someone to recognize their own childs cries because they need to do more “fine-grained analysis”. The team had previously found that our reactions speed up when we hear a baby crying. Adults performed better on computer games when they heard the sound of a baby crying than after they heard recordings of adults crying.1、A babys cry is difficult to ignore because it _.Akeeps on cryingBcries harder than adultsCcauses people great painDmakes people feel strong emotions2、The underlined word “trigger” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_
