Questions 21–26
21/22 B and E, (in any order)
B, Maia says that babies need to investigate their
own environment. ‘They should examine the
objects around them and experiment . . . discover
information for themselves.’
E, Daniel says that babies learn by interacting with
their parents and caregivers.
Distraction A, Maia says that babies will pay attention
to the videos for long periods of time. C, Maia says
babies don’t need to play in a group – it can be alone.
D, Daniel says that babies don’t learn effectively from
screens, but not that screens do them any harm.
23/24 B and C, (in any order)
B, Maia is amazed ‘the research has produced so
much specific information’. She says she hadn’t
expected the results to cover ‘so many different
aspects of baby behaviour’. C, Daniel says it isn’t
some, but that ‘pretty much every baby prefers the
paper to the present’. Maia had thought there would
be more exceptions.
Distraction A, Daniel says we should not stop
wrapping up presents. D, Daniel says that both males
and females behave the same way. E, there are
several references to methodology, including brain
scans, but no mention of criticism.
25/26 A and D, (in any order)
A, Maia says that ‘follow-up testing showed that the
classes had a long-term benefit’. Both students agree
that this is impressive.
D, Maia says that all the teachers had the same
training that emphasised the importance of play,
and they both agree that this was important for the
experiment to be valid.
Distraction B, some details about the research
subjects are given but no comment is made
regarding the number. C, Daniel asks if the children
enjoyed themselves, but Maia has no information
on that. E, at present, the response of the schools is
not known.

Questions 27–30
27 C Maia mentions that parents and caregivers
sometimes repeated the same movements, and
concludes that babies were happiest when their
behaviour was imitated.
Distraction B, there are references to movement. D,
the babies were given toys to play with, but there is
no reference to them being excited or surprised by
this.
28 F Daniel says that the babies wanted to give
assistance. If they thought someone had a problem,
they wanted to help.
Distraction D, there is reference to a surprise such as
a pen being dropped, but no reference to the babies
being excited by this. C, Maia asks if the babies
copied the researchers’ behaviour, but Daniel says
no.
29 A Maia says the babies recognised the relationship
between reason and result, because they knew the
light would come on.
Distraction B, ‘pushing’ the buttons may suggest
physical exercise but that is not the nature of this
experiment. E, Daniel asks if he is a linguist, but is
confusing him with someone else.
30 E The babies have some knowledge of how
language is structured, and can recognise nouns
and verbs, etc.
Distraction D, Maia expresses surprise at the
research finding, but that doesn’t relate to the
babies being surprised.
