8、udents should be jealous. Not only do babies get to doze their days away, but theyve also mastered the fine art of learning in their sleep.By the time babies are a year old they can recognize a lot of sounds and even simple words. Marie Cheour at the university of Turku in Finland suspected that the
9、y might progress this fast because they learn language while they sleep as well as when they are awake.To test the theory, Cheour and their colleagues studied 45 newborn babies in the first days of their lives. They exposed all the infants to an hour of Finnish vowel sounds-one that sounds like “oo“
10、, another like “ee“ and a third boundary vowel peculiar to Finnish and similar languages that sounds like something in between. EEG recording of the infants brains before and after the session showed that the newborns could not distinguish the sounds.Fifteen of the babies then went back with their m
11、others, while the rest were split into two sleepstudy groups. One group was exposed throughout their night-time sleeping hours to the same three vowels, while the others listened to the other, easier-to-distinguish vowel sounds.When tested in the morning, and again in the evening, the babies whod he
12、ard the tricky boundary vowels all night showed brainwave activity indicating that they could now recognize this sound. They could identify the sound even when its pitch was changed, while none of the other babies could pick up the boundary vowel at all.Cheour doesnt know how babies accomplish this
13、nighttime learning, but she suspects that the special ability might indicate that unlike adults, babies dont “turn off“ their cerebral Cortex while they sleep. The skill probably fades in the course of the first years of life, she addsoso forget the idea that you can pick up the tricky French vowels
14、 as an adult just by slipping a language tape under your pillow. But while it may not help grown-ups, Cheour is hoping to use the sleeping hours to give remedial help to babies who are genetically at risk of language disorders.(分数:7.00)(1).Babies can learn language even in their sleep.(分数:1.00)A.Rig

20、解(总题数:0,分数:0.00)五、第一篇(总题数:1,分数:15.00)TourismPeople travel for a lot of reason. Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines. Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their picture taken in front of famous places. But most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach toi
21、le on.Northern European are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it. Residents of cities like London, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much of the rest the
22、year in the rain. This is the reason the Mediterranean has always attracted them. Every summer, more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean resort and beaches for their vacation. They all come for the same reason sun!The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean count
23、ries. Italys 30, 000 hotels are booked solid every summer. And 13 million people camp out on French beaches, parks and roadsides. Spains long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else. 37 million tourists visit yearly, or one tourist for every person living in Spain.But there are signs
24、 that the area is getting more tourism than it can handle. The Mediterranean is already one the most polluted seas on earth. And with increased tourism, its getting worse. The French cant figure out what to do with all the garbage left by campers around St. Tropez. And in many places, swimming is da
25、ngerous because of pollution.None of this, however, is spoiling anyones fun. The Mediterranean gets more popular every year with tourists. Obviously, they dont go there for clean water and solitude. They tolerate traffic jams and seem to like crowded beaches. They dont even mind the pollution. No ma
26、tter how dirty the water is, the coastline still looks beautiful. And as long as the sun shines, its still better than sitting in the cold rain in Berlin, London, or Oslo.(分数:15.00)(1).The writer seems to imply that Europeans travel mostly for the reason that_(分数:3.00)A.they want to see historic rem
27、ains or religious spotsB.they are interested in different cultural traditions and social customsC.they would like to take pictures in front of famous sitesD.they wish to escape from the cold, dark and rainy days back at home(2).In paragraph 2, cities like London, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam are mentio

31、nean resorts and beaches?(分数:3.00)A.Polluted waterB.Crowded busesC.Traffic jamsD.Rainy weather六、第二篇(总题数:1,分数:15.00)Call American Their NamesA great difference between American social customs and those of other countries is the way in which names are used. Americans have little concern for “rank“, es
32、pecially socially. Most Americans do not want to be treated in any especially respectful way because of their age or social rank ; it makes them feel uncomfortable. Many Americans even find the terms “Mr. “, “Mrs. “ or “Miss“ too formal. People of all ages may prefer to be called by their first name
33、s. “Dont call me Mrs. Smith. Just call me Sally. “ Using only first names usually indicates friendliness and acceptance. However, if you do not feel comfortable using only first names, it is quite acceptable to be more formal. Just smile and say that after a while you will use first names but you ar
34、e accustomed to being more when you first meet someone.Very often, introductions are made using both first and last names: “Mary Smith, this is John Jones. “ In this situation you are free to decide whether to call the lady “Mary“ or “Miss Smith“. Sometimes both of you will begin a conversation usin
35、g last names, and after a while one or both of you may begin using first names instead. You have a choice : if you dont want to use first names so quickly, no one will think it impolite if you continue according to your own custom.(分数:15.00)(1).In the first paragraph the author tells us that_.(分数:3.
36、00)A.Americans do not talk about rank, especially sociallyB.Americans feel uncomfortable when talking about rankC.Americans take interests in social customsD.Americans dont care much about social rank(2).According to the passage, most Americans feel_when they are treated especially respectfully owin
37、g to their age or social rank.(分数:3.00)A.sickB.sorryC.uneasyD.embarrassed(3).Which of the following statements is NOT true?(分数:3.00)A.The way names are used in America is different from those of other countries.B.Many Americans are used to being called by their first names.C.It shows friendliness an
38、d kindness to use only first names.D.When you talk to people in the United States, you have to use their first names.(4).If an American lady say “Dont call me Mrs. Smith, just call me Sally. “ that shows_.(分数:3.00)A.she is not a married womanB.she prefers to be called “Sally“C.she is not Mrs. SmithD
39、.she likes to be more formal(5).The passage youve just read would most likely be found in a_.(分数:3.00)A.guide-book for touristsB.book about American historyC.noticeD.short story七、第三篇(总题数:1,分数:15.00)Reading PoemNo poem should ever be discussed or “analyzed“, until it has been read aloud by someone, t
40、eacher or student. Better still, perhaps, is the practice of reading it twice, once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end, so the sound of the poem is the last thing one hears of it.All discussions of poetry are, in fact, preparations for reading it aloud, and the reading of the poe
41、m is, finally, the most telling “interpretation“ of it, suggesting tone, rhythm, and meaning all at once. Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice, on records or on film, is obviously a special reward. But even those aids to teaching can not replace the student and teacher reading it or,
42、 best of all, reciting it.I have come to think, in fact, that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analyzing“ it, if there isnt time for both. I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry. Poetry is “a criticism of life“, “a heightening of l
43、ife, enjoyment with others“. It is “an approach to the truth of feeling“, and it “can save your life“ It also deserves a place in the teaching of languages and literature more central than it presently occupies.I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry. Those who dont like it shou
44、ld not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else. But those who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature, about its sound as well as its sense, and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.(分数:15.00)(1).According to the
45、passage, to have a better understanding of a poem, the best way is_.(分数:3.00)A.to discuss it with othersB.to analyze it by oneselfC.to hear it read outD.to practice reading it aloud(2).The recitation of a poetry by the teacher or a student in the classroom_.(分数:3.00)A.is the best way to understand i
46、tB.easily arouses some discussion among the studentsC.helps the teachers to analyse itD.can not take the place of the poet reading it analyse(3).According to the author, one of the purposes of teaching English is getting students_.(分数:3.00)A.to criticize lifeB.to like poetryC.to enjoy lifeD.to teach
47、 poetry(4).What does the last sentence in the third paragraph imply?(分数:3.00)A.The teaching of poetry should have been much more stressedB.The teaching of poetry is more important than the teaching of any other subject.C.One cannot enjoy life fully without an understanding of poetry.D.Poetry is the
48、foundation of all languages and literature courses.(5).The phrase “make room“ in the last paragraph can be best replaced by_.(分数:3.00)A.“build a booth“B.“provide equipment“C.“leave a certain amount of time“D.“set aside enough space“八、第 5 部分:补全短文(总题数:1,分数:10.00)Ludwig Van BeethovenLudwig Van Beethoven, a major composer of the nineteenth century, overcame many personal problems to achieve artistic greatness.Born in Bonn, Germany, in 1770, he first studied music with the court organist, Gilles van der Eeden.
