B
Scientists from Spain and the Netherlands did a study and discovered that road traffic noise near schools could cause problems for children.
In the study, Maria Foraster and her team from the Barcelona Institute for Global Health worked with 2,680 children aged 7—10 at 38 schools in Barcelona, Spain. They tested the children's thinking and memory skills by giving them four computer tests over a year. There researchers looked at the noise both inside and outside the schools. They also estimated(估算) the noise levels at the children's homes. Air pollution, people's home locations, and other related factors(相关因素) were also considered.
The results(结果) showed that children in noisy schools had a hard time remembering and paying attention to things compared to children in quiet schools. When children were inside the classroom, changing traffic noise was an even bigger problem for them than just loud traffic noise. And no connection was found between noise at home and children's learning abilities.
One limitation(局限性) of the study was that the researchers did not study the noise levels from the past, which might have influenced the test scores. However, 98% of the children had been in the same school for at least a year, and the noise levels did not usually change very fast.
This study is important because many children worldwide are exposed to(遭受) traffic noise in schools. The researchers advised that more tests should be done in other places to see if the results are the same for different groups of children. If the answer is yes, this discovery might change the future rules about noise pollution near schools.

来自西班牙和荷兰的科学家进行了一项研究,发现学校附近的道路交通噪音可能会给孩子们带来问题。
在这项研究中,来自巴塞罗那全球健康研究所的玛丽亚·福拉斯特及其团队与西班牙巴塞罗那38所学校的2680名7至10岁的儿童合作。在一年的时间里,他们通过让孩子们进行四次电脑测试来检验他们的思维和记忆能力。研究人员观察了学校内外的噪音情况。他们还估算了孩子们家中的噪音水平。空气污染、人们的家庭住址以及其他相关因素也被考虑在内。
结果显示,与在安静学校的孩子相比,在嘈杂学校的孩子很难记住事情并集中注意力。当孩子们在教室里时,变化的交通噪音对他们来说比单纯的大交通噪音是一个更大的问题。而且,家庭噪音与孩子的学习能力之间没有关联。
这项研究的一个局限性是,研究人员没有研究过去的噪音水平,而过去的噪音水平可能会影响测试成绩。然而,98%的孩子至少在同一所学校待了一年,而且噪音水平通常不会变化得很快。
这项研究很重要,因为全世界有很多孩子在学校里遭受交通噪音的影响。研究人员建议在其他地方进行更多的测试,以看看不同群体的孩子是否会有相同的结果。如果答案是肯定的,这一发现可能会改变未来关于学校附近噪音污染的规定。
