21、e in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being. From earliest infancy, every child needs opportunity and the right material for play, and the main tools of play are toys. Their main function is to suggest, encourage and assist play. To succeed i
22、n this they must be good toys. which children will play often, and will come back to again and again. Therefore it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages of a childs development. In recent years research on infant development has shown the standard a child is likely to reach, with
23、in the range of his inherited abilities, is largely determined in the first three years of his life. So a babys ability to profit from the right play materials should not be underestimated. A baby who is encouraged and stimulated, talked to and shown things and played with, has the best chance of gr
24、owing up successfully. The next stage, from three to five years old, curiosity knows no bounds. Every type of suitable toys should be made available to the child, for trying out, experimenting and learning, for discovering his own particular ability. Bricks and jigsaws and construction toys; paintin
25、g, scribbling and making things; sand and water play; toys for imaginative and pretending play; the first social games for learning to play and get on with others. By the third stage of play development from five to seven or eight years the child is at school. But for a few more years play is still
26、the best way of learning, at home or at school. It is easier to see which type of toys the child most enjoys. Until the age of seven or eight, play and work mean much the same thing to a child. But once reading has been mastered, then books and school become the main source of learning. Toys are sti
27、ll interesting and valuable, they lead on to new hobbies, but their significance has changed to a child of nine or ten years, toys and games mean, as to adults, relaxation and fun.

Young men will never again go to war as they did in 1914. Mil
31、lions of people now have seen the effects of a battle. And the result has been a general dislike of war, and perhaps more interest in helping those who suffer from all the terrible things that have been shown on the screen. Television has also changed politics. The most remote can now follow state a
32、ffairs, see and hear the politicians before an election. Better informed, he is more likely to vote, and so to make his opinion count. Unfortunately, televisions influence has been greatly harmful to the young. Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world;
33、that TV advertisements lie to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. They believe and want to practice what they see. They do believe that the violence they see is normal and acceptable. All educators agree that the “television generations“ are more violent than their parents and grandpare
34、nts. Also, the young are more impatient. Used to TV shows, where everything is quick and interesting, they do not have the patience to read an article without pictures, to read a book that requires thinking, to listen to a teacher who doesnt do funny things like the people on children s programs. An
35、d they expect ail problems to be solved happily in ten, fifteen, or thirty minutes. That s the time it takes on the screen.

38、age, we can conclude that _.(分数:0.20)A.children should keep away from TVB.TV programs should be improvedC.childrens books should have picturesD.TV has a deep influence on the youngWhenever advertisers want you to stop thinking about the product and to start thinking about something bigger, better, o
39、r more attractive than the product, they use that very popular word “like“. The word “like“ is the advertisers equivalent of the magicians use of misdirection. “Like“ gets you to ignore the product and concentrate on the claim the advertiser is making about it. “For skin like peaches and cream“ clai
40、ms the ad for a skin cream. What is this ad really claiming? It doesnt say this cream will give you peaches-and-cream skin. There is no verb in this claim, so it doesnt even mention using the product. How is skin ever like “peaches and cream“? Remember, ads must be read exactly according to the dict
41、ionary definition of words. This ad is making absolutely no promise for this skin cream. If you think this cream will give you soft, smooth, and youthful-looking skin, you are the one who has read the meaning into the ad. The wine that claims “Its like taking a trip to France“ wants you to think abo
42、ut a romantic evening in Paris as you walk along the street after a wonderful meal in an intimate cafe. Of course, you dont really believe that a wine can take you to France, but the goal of the ad is to get you to think pleasant, romantic thoughts about France and not about how the wine tastes or h
43、ow expensive it may be. That little word “like“ has taken you away from crushed grapes into a world of your own imaginative making. Who knows, maybe the next time you buy wine, youll think those pleasant thoughts when you see this brand of wine, and youll buy it. How about the most famous “like“ cla
44、im of all, “ Winston tastes good like a cigarette should“? Ignoring the grammatical error here, you might want to know what this claim is saying. Whether a cigarette tastes good or bad is a subjective judgment because what tastes good to one person may well taste horrible to another. There are many
45、people who say that all cigarettes taste terrible , other people who say only some cigarettes taste all right, and still others who say all cigarettes taste good. (分数:1.00)(1).The word “like“ in an ad often focuses the consumers attention on_.(分数:0.20)A.what the advertiser says about the productB.wh
46、at magic the product really possessesC.why the advertiser promotes the productD.why the product is as good as promised(2).The author suggests that language in ads should be understood_.(分数:0.20)A.according to its dictionary definitionB.according to its contextsC.imaginativelyD.impartially(3).To prom

48、sumers imagination(5).The best title for the passage would be_.(分数:0.20)A.The Magic of “Like“ in AdvertisingB.The Promise of “Like“ in AdvertisingC.The Definition of “Like“ in AdvertisingD.The Application of “Like“ in Advertising五、Part B(总题数:1,分数:1.00)Manhattan: Manhattan was founded in 1624 as New
