When we compare them with adults learning a foreign language, we often find this interesting fact. A little child without knowledge or experience often succ
9、eeds in a complete mastery of the language. A grown-up person with fully developed mental powers, in most cases, may end up with a faulty and inexact command. What accounts for this difference?Despite other explanations, the real answer in my opinion lies partly in the child himself, partly in the b
10、ehaviour of the people around him. In the first place, the time of learning the mother tongue is the most favourable of all, namely, the first years of life. A child hears it spoken from morning till night and, what is more important, always in its genuine form, with the right pronunciation, fight i
11、ntonation, right use of words and right structure. He drinks in all the words and expressions which come to him in a flesh, ever-bubbling spring. There is no resistance: there is perfect assimilation.Then the child has, as it were, private lessons all the year round, while an adult language-student
12、has each week a limited number of hours which he generally shares with others. The child has another advantage: he hears the language in all possible situations, always accompanied by the right kind of gestures and facial expressions. Here there is nothing unnatural, such as is often found in langua
13、ge lessons in schools, when one talks about ice and snow in June or scorching heat in January, And what a child hears is generally what immediately interests him. Again and again, when his attempts at speech are successful, his desires are understood and fulfilled.Finally, though a childs “teachers“
14、 may not have been trained in language teaching, their relations with him are always close and personal. They take great pains to make their lessons easy.(分数:7.00)(1).Compared with adults learning a foreign language, children learn their native language with ease.(分数:1.00)A.A. Right B.B. Wrong C.C.

And dont let a particular concern open the floodgates for all your accumulated frustration. The boss will feel that you think negative

27、sonal crisis, how much help can you expect from a New York taxi driver? I began studying this question after watching the “Taxicab Confessions,“ a series of documentaries in which hidden cameras record the secrets of unsuspecting taxi riders. I found the results varied.One morning I got into three d
28、ifferent taxis and announced: “Well, its my first day back in New York in seven years. Ive been in prison.“ Not a single driver replied, so I tried again. “Yeah, I shot a man in Reno,“ I explained, hoping the driver would ask me why, so I could say casually, “Just to watch him die.“ But nobody asked
29、. The only response came from a Ghanaian driver:“ Reno? That is in Nevada?“Taxi drivers were uniformly sympathetic when I said Id just been fired. “This is America,“ a Haitian driver said. “One door is closed. Another is open.“ He argued against my plan to bum down my bosss house: “If you do somethi
30、ng silly and they put you away, you cannot look for another job.“ A Pakistani driver even turned down a chance to profit from my loss of hope: he refused to take me to the middle of the George Washington Bridge, a $20 trip. “Why you want to go there? Go home and relax. Dont worry. Take a new job.“On
31、e very hot weekday in July, while wearing a red ski mask and holding a stuffed pillowcase with the word “BANK“ on it, I tried hailing a taxi five times outside different banks. The driver picked me up every time. My ride with Guy-Caaude Thevenain, a Haitian driver, was typical of the superb assistan
32、ce I received.“Is anyone following us?“No,“ said the driver, looking in his rearview mirror at traffic and me.“Lets go across the park,“ I said. “I just robbed the bank there, I got $25,000.“$25,000?“ he asked.“Yeah, you think it was wrong to take it?“No, man. I work 8 hours and I dont make almost $
33、70. If I can do that, I do it too.“As we approached 86th and Lexington, I pointed to the Chemical Bank.“Hey, theres another bank,“ I said, “could you wait here a minute while I go inside?“No, I cant wait. Pay me now.“ His reluctance may have had something to do with moneytaxi drivers think the rate

Findings published online this week by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences further support the theory that the brain organizes and stows memories formed during the day w
40、hile the rest of the body is catching zzzs.Gyorgy Buzsaki of Rutgers University and his colleagues analyzed the brain waves of sleeping rats and mice. Specifically, they examined the electrical activity emanating from the somatosensory neocortex (an area that processes sensory information) and the h
41、ippocampus, which is a center for learning and memory. The scientists found that oscillations in brain waves from the two regions appear to be intertwined. So-called sleep spindles (bursts of activity from the neocortex) were followed tens of milliseconds later by beats in the hippocampus known as r
42、ipples. The team posits that this interplay between the two brain regions is a key step in memory consolidation.A second study, also published online this week, by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, links age-associated memory decline to high glucose levels.Previous research had sh
43、own that individuals with diabetes suffer from increased memory problems. In the new work, Antonio Convit of New York University School of Medicine and his collaborators studied 30 people whose average age was 69 to investigate whether sugar levels, which tend to increase with age, affect memory in
44、healthy people as well. The scientists administered recall tests, brain scans and glucose tolerance tests, which measure how quickly sugar is absorbed from the blood by the bodys tissues. Subjects with the poorest memory recollection, the team discovered, also displayed the poorest glucose tolerance
45、. In addition, their brain scans showed more hippocampus shrinkage than those of subjects better able to absorb blood sugar.“Our study suggests that this impairment may contribute to the, memory deficits that occur as people age,“ Convit says. “And it raises the intriguing possibility that improving
46、 glucose tolerance could reverse some age-associated problems in cognition.“ Exercise and weight control can help keep glucose levels in check, so there may be one more reason to go to the gym.(分数:15.00)(1).Which of the following statements is nearest in meaning to the sentence “To sleep. Perchance
