Children do not think the way adults do. For most of 61 first year of life, if something is out of sight, it is out of mind. 62 you cover a baby’s favorite toy with a piece of cloth, the baby thinks the toy has disappeared and stops 63 (look) for it. A 4-year-old may object that his/her sister has 64 (much) fruit juice when it is only the shapes of the glasses that differ, not the amount of juice.
Yet children are smart 65 their own way. Like good little scientists, children are always testing their child-sized theories about 66 things work. When your child throws her spoon on the floor for the sixth time as you try to feed her, and you say, “That’s enough! I will not pick up your spoon again!” the child will 67 (immediate) test your claim. Are you serious? Are you 68 (annoy)? What will happen if she throws the spoon again? She is not doing this to drive you crazy; rather, she 69 (learn) that her desires and yours can differ, and that sometimes those 70 (differ) are important and sometimes they are not.
