Voice 1: Since early in the year 2005, scientists and doctors have been studying this family. The five young people have spent time in hospital. They have had many medical tests. They have other problems as well as their difficulty with walking. They have very limited language. They are unable to count from one to ten. And the different parts of their bodies do not co-operate well with one another.
聲音1：科學家和醫生從2005年年初開始研究這個家庭。這5名年輕人在醫院住了一段時間。他們進行了許多項醫學測試。除了行走困難，他們還有其他問題。他們的語言能力有限。他們不能從1數到10。他們身體的不同部位無法互相協作。
But what is causing these problems? There has been much discussion and disagreement about them. Did they just lack good food and the right kind of care when they were babies? Or are their problems genetic?
那造成這些問題的原因是什么？圍繞他們有很多討論和分歧。只是因為他們在嬰兒時期缺乏營養和正確的護理嗎？還是因為他們有基因問題？
Voice 2: The scientists discovered that these five young people suffer from a rare genetic condition. It is called cerebellar hypoplasia. This condition is caused by a group of damaged genes. The damaged genes prevent an important part of the brain from developing. It is the part of the brain that affects how the parts of the body co-operate with each other.
聲音2：科學家發現，這5名年輕人患有罕見的遺傳病。這種遺傳病是小腦發育不全。是由受損基因引發。受損基因導致大腦一個重要的部位無法開發。這個部位在大腦中負責影響身體各部位互相協作的方式。
