22、le techniques, parents who read to their children can greatly increase their children“s language development. It is surprising but true. How parents talk to their children makes a big difference in the children“s language development. If a parent encourages the child to actively respond to what the
23、parent is reading, the child“s language skills increase. A study was done with 30 three-year-old children and their parents. Half of the children participated in the experimental study; the other half acted as the control group. In the experimental group, the parents were given a two-hour training s
24、ession in which they were taught to ask open-ended questions rather than yes-or-no questions. For example, the parent should ask, “What is the doggie doing?“ rather than “Is the doggie running away?“ The parents in the experimental group were also instructed in how to help children find answers, how
25、 to suggest alternative possibilities and how to praise correct answers. At the beginning of the study, the children did not differ in measures of language development, but at the end of one month, the children in the experimental group showed 5.5 months ahead of the control group on a test of verba
26、l expression and vocabulary. Nine months later, the children in the experimental group still showed an advance of 6 months over the children in the control group.（分数：10.00）(1).Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?（分数：2.00）A.Children who talk a lot are more intelligent.B.Parents wh
27、o listen to their children can teach them more.C.Active children should read more and be given more attention.D.Verbal ability can easily be developed with proper methods.(2).What does “It“ in line 2 can most probably be replaced by?（分数：2.00）A.Parents“ increasing children“s language development.B.Re
28、ading techniques being simple.C.Parents“ reading to children.D.Children“s intelligence development.(3).According to the author, which of the following questions is the best type to ask children about?（分数：2.00）A.Do you see the elephant?B.Is the elephant in the cage?C.What animals do you like?D.Shall
29、we go to the zoo?(4).The difference between the control group and the experimental group was _.（分数：2.00）A.the training that parents receivedB.the age of the childrenC.the books that were readD.the number of the children(5).The best conclusion we can draw from the passage is that _.（分数：2.00）A.parents
30、 should be trained to read to their childrenB.the more children read, the more intelligent they will becomeC.children“s language skills increase when they are required to respond activelyD.children who read actively seem six months old五、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Too often young people get themselve
31、s employed quite by accident, not knowing what lies in the way of opportunity for promotion, happiness and security. As a result, they are employed in doing jobs that afford them little or no satisfaction. Our school leavers face so much competition that they seldom care what they do as long as they
32、 can earn a living. Some stay long at a job and learn to like it; others quit from one to another looking for something to suit them. The young graduates who leave the university look for jobs that offer a salary up to their expectation. Very few go out into the world knowing exactly what they want
33、and realizing their own abilities. The reason behind all this confusion is that there never has been a proper vocational guidance in our educational institution. Nearly all grope (摸索) in the dark and their chief concern when they look for a job is to ask what salary is like. They never bother to thi
34、nk whether they are suited for the job or, even more important, whether the job suits them. Having a job is more than merely providing yourself and your dependants with daily bread and some money for leisure and entertainment. It sets a pattern of life and, in many ways, determines social status in
35、life, selection of friends, leisure and interest. In choosing a career you should first consider the type of work which will suit your interest. Nothing is more pathetic than taking on a job in which you have no interest, for it will not only discourage your desire to succeed in life but also ruin y
36、our talents and ultimately make you an emotional wreck (受到严重伤害的人) and a bitter person.（分数：10.00）(1).The reason why some people are unlikely to succeed in life is that they _.（分数：2.00）A.have ruined their talentsB.have taken on an unsuitable jobC.think of nothing but their salaryD.are not aware of the
37、ir own potential(2).The difficulty in choosing a suitable job lies mainly in that _.（分数：2.00）A.much competition has to be facedB.many employees have no working experienceC.the young people only care about how much they can earnD.schools fail to offer students appropriate vocational guidance(3).Which
38、 of the following statements is most important according to the passage?（分数：2.00）A.Your job must suit your interest.B.Your job must set a pattern of life.C.Your job must offer you a high salary.D.Your job must not ruin your talents.(4).The best title for this passage would be _.（分数：2.00）A.What Can a
39、 Good Job OfferB.Earning a LivingC.Correct Attitude On Job-huntingD.How To Choose a Job(5).The word “pathetic“ in paragraph 2 most probably means _.（分数：2.00）A.splendidB.miserableC.disgustedD.touching六、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Walking down any of Shanghai“s main shopping streets this week, newcom
40、ers might think the locals have been celebrating Christmas for centuries. Christmas may not be a customary holiday in China, but businessmen in Shanghai know it will bring something more valuable than tradition: people willing to spend money. Most Chinese may feel little connection with the Christma
41、s celebration, but with most shops offering discounts (折扣), the message couldn“t be clearerit is the season to part with one“s hard-earned cash. Much of that marketing drive is directed towards the thousand of foreigners and foreign companies that call Shanghai home. But for Shanghai“s 13 million lo
42、cals, regardless of personal interest, there seems no avoiding the season“s commercial (商业的) greetings. Along some major roads, nearly every shop window displays some symbols to the holiday: a man-made fir tree (杉树) with lights, or a snowman. With an increasing number of Westerners arriving in the c
43、ity for work, young Shanghainese, eager to keep pace with the latest Western fashions, have begun to show their interest in Christmas. But some people still don“t think Christmas is an important festival in China. At least it is less important than the New Year and China“s Spring Festival.（分数：10.00）
44、(1).In the first sentence, the word “newcomers“ (Para. 1) probably means _.（分数：2.00）A.people who are very youngB.people from other countriesC.local peoplesD.Shanghainese(2).To the business people in Shanghai, Christmas will bring _.（分数：2.00）A.profitsB.greetingsC.discountsD.tradition(3).Which of the
45、following statements is true?（分数：2.00）A.Christmas is the season for common people to earn money.B.Most Chinese people think they have something to do with Christmas.C.Christmas is the season people will hold their hard-earned money tightly.D.Few Chinese people feel they are connected with the Christ
46、mas celebration.(4).Why do some young Shanghainese show great interest in Christmas?（分数：2.00）A.They want to follow the up-to-date Western fashions.B.They think Christmas is more important than New Year“s Day.C.They think themselves connected with Christmas celebrations.D.They want to part with their
47、 hard-earned cash during Christmas.(5).What is the author“s idea towards Christmas celebrations?（分数：2.00）A.Chinese young people should not celebrate Christmas seasons.B.Young people should show their interest in Christmas celebrations.C.Christmas is a good season for business people to earn money in
48、 China.D.Different people have different views towards the western stile celebration.七、Passage Four(总题数：1，分数：10.00)The English have the reputation of being very different from all other nationalities. It is claimed that living on an island separated from the rest of Europe has much to do with it. Wh
49、atever the reasons, it may be fairly stated that the Englishman has developed some attitudes and habits distinguishing him from other nationalities. Broadly speaking, the Englishman is a quiet, shy, and reserved person among people he knows well. Before strangers he often seems inhibited , even embarrassed. You have only to witness a railway compartme
