A tiny exposure to peanuts can

But a recent study suggests that some children may be able to beat back their allergic reactions to peanuts by gradually introducing trace amounts of t

35、he nut into their diets. Its too early to say for certain， so if you have a peanut allergy， do not try this at home. But the first results look promising. Two teams of scientists have been experimenting on a group“of 29 children who are allergic to peanuts”At the beginning of the study， each kid rec

36、eived less than 1/1，000 of a peanut per day. (Imagine splitting a peanut into 1， 000 parts!)

The two teams of scientists are now doing a follow-up study on two groups of children with the allergy. Children in one group will receive the new therapy，

38、while the others will not. Researchers hope this study will help them learn if the therapy truly does work. Scientists dont understand why some people get peanut allergies and others dont，but are trying to find a way to help people with the allergy. Because of the severity of some peanut allergies，

44、rews in Scotland. From beating their chests to putting objects on their heads， shaking their arms， and even bouncing on all fours， the animals use more than 100 gestures to communicate with each other Professor Richard Byrne， a psychiatrist involved in the research， says it was hard to figure out th

45、e meanings of the gestures. “We dont really know what the animals are thinking. Often the gestures have more than one meaning， depending on the context， ”says Byrne. The study showed that the gorillas did not learn the ges-tures from each other， as had been expected， but performed them instinctively

46、 (本能地 ). “Everyone had assumed different groups of gorillas would learn different gestures， ”he says. “But thats not what we found. The more sites we went to ,the more we saw the same gestures being used. They seem to be naturally equipped with a pretty complex system of communication.” The study al
