When humans first

8、1 , they were like newborn children, unable to use this valuable tool. Yet once language developed, the possibilities for human kind“s future 2 and cultural growth increased. Many linguists believe that evolution is 3 for our ability to produce and use language. They claim that our highly evolved br

9、ain provides us 4 an innate (天生的) language ability not found in lower organisms. Proponents (支持者) of this innateness theory say that our 5 for language is inborn, but that language itself develops gradually, 6 a function of the growth of the brain during childhood. Therefore there are critical bilog

10、ical times for language development. Current 7 of innateness theory are mixed; however, evidence supporting the existence of some innate abilities is undeniable. 8 , more and more schools are discovering that foreign languages are best taught in 9 grades. Young children often can learn several langu

11、ages by being 10 to them, while adults have a much harder time learning another language once the 11 of their first language have become firmly fixed. 12 some aspects of language are undeniably innate, language does not develop automatically in a vacuum. Children who have been isolated from other hu

12、man beings do not possess language. This demonstrates that 13 with other human beings is necessary for proper language development. Some linguists believe that this is even more basic to human language 14 than any innate capacities. These theorists view language as imitative, learned behavior. 15 ,

13、children learn language from their parents by imitating them. Parents gradually shape their child“s language skills by positively reinforcing precise imitations and negatively reinforcing imprecise ones.（分数：15.00）A.generatedB.evolvedC.bornD.originatedA.attainmentsB.feasibilityC.entertainmentsD.evolu

Write it down. B-A-K-E-R. Jimmy: How do you write B? Mr. Baker: How do I write.? Listen, little boy, is t

18、here anybody else with you? Any brothers or sisters? Jimmy：Yes, my brother Billy is here. Mr. Baker: Good. I want to talk to him, please. Jimmy: All right.

21、my“s brother BillyD.Jimmy“s sister BettyYears ago, a cigarette commercial asked if you were smoking more, but enjoying it less. That describes the way many of us live today. We are doing more, but enjoying it less. And when that doesn“t work, we get the problem. In our extremely hurried search for s

22、atisfaction, we try stuffing still more into our days, never realizing that we are taking the wrong approach. The truth is simple; so simple it is hard to believe. Satisfaction lies with less, not with more. Yet, we pursue the myth that this thing, or that activity, will somehow provide the satisfac

23、tion we so desperately seek. Arthur Lindman, in his very effective book, “The Harried Leisure Class,“ described the uselessness of pursuing more. His research focused on what people did with their leisure time. He found that as income rose, people bought more things to occupy their leisure time. But

24、, ironically, the more things they bought, the less they valued any one of them. Carried to an extreme, he predicted massive boredom in the midst of tremendous variety. That was more than twenty years ago, and his prediction seems more accurate every year. Lindman of course, is not the first to disc

25、over this. The writer of Ecclesiastes expressed the same thought thousands of years ago. It is better, he wrote, to have less, but enjoy it more. If you would like to enjoy life more, I challenge you to experiment with me. How could you simplify your life? What could you drop? What could you do with

26、out? What could you stop pursuing? What few things could you concentrate on? The more I learn, the more I realize that fullness of life does not depend on things. The more I give up, the more I seem to gain. But words will never convince you. You must try it for yourself.（分数：12.00）(1).Lindman wrote

27、his book _.（分数：3.00）A.ten years agoB.twenty years agoC.more than twenty years agoD.thousands of years ago(2).We can make our life happier if we _.（分数：3.00）A.get rid of useless thingsB.buy more thingsC.sell things we do not needD.give up more(3).The best title for the passage is _.（分数：3.00）A.Simplify

28、 Your LifeB.Enjoy Your LifeC.Smoking LessD.Satisfaction(4).Arthur Lindman wrote _.（分数：3.00）A.a popular novelB.a research paperC.EcclesiastesD.The Harried Leisure ClassStarted in 1636, Harvard University is the oldest of all the many colleges and universities in the United States. Yale, Princeton, Co

29、lumbia and Dartmouth were opened soon after Harvard. In the early years, these schools were much alike. Only young men went to college. All the students studied the same subjects, and everyone learned Latin, Greek and Hebrew. Little was known about science then, and one kind of school could teach ev

30、erything that was known about the world. When the students graduated, most of them became ministers (大臣) or teachers. In 1782, Harvard started a medical school for young men who wanted to become doctors. Later, lawyers could receive their training in Harvard“s law school. In 1825, besides Latin and

31、Greek, Harvard began teaching modern languages, such as French and German. Soon it began teaching American history. As knowledge increased, Harvard and other colleges began to teach many new subjects. Students were allowed to choose the subjects that interested them. Today, there are many different

32、kinds of colleges and universities. Most of them are made up of smaller schools that deal with (涉及) special fields of learning. There“s so much to learn that one kind of school can“t offer it all.（分数：15.00）(1).The oldest university in the US is _.（分数：3.00）A.YaleB.PrincetonC.HarvardD.Columbia(2).From

33、 the second paragraph, we can see that in the early years, _.（分数：3.00）A.those colleges and universities were the sameB.people, young or old, might study in the collegesC.students studied only some languages and scienceD.when the students finished their school, they became lawyers or teachers(3).The

34、modern languages Harvard taught in 1825 were _.（分数：3.00）A.Latin and GreekB.Latin, Green, French and GermanC.American history and GermanD.French and German(4).As knowledge increased, colleges began to teach _.（分数：3.00）A.everything that was knownB.law and something about medicineC.many new subjectsD.t

35、he subjects that interested students(5).On the whole, the passage is about _.（分数：3.00）A.how to start a universityB.the world-famous colleges in AmericaC.how colleges have changedD.what kind of lesson each college teachesTo a philosopher, wisdom is not the same as knowledge. Facts may be known in eno

36、rmous numbers without the knower of them loving wisdom. Indeed, the person who possesses encyclopedic (学士渊博的) information may actually have a genuine contempt (轻视) for those who love and seek wisdom. The philosopher is not content with a mere knowledge of facts. He desires to combine and evaluate fa

37、cts, and to examine beneath the obvious to the deeper orderliness behind the immediately given facts. Insight into the hidden depths of reality, perspective (洞察) on human life and nature in their entirety, in the words of Plato, to be a spectator of time and existence-these are the philosopher“s obj

38、ectives. Too great an interest in the small details of science, may, and often does, obscure these basic objectives. Philosophers assume that the love of wisdom is a natural gift of the human being. Potentially every man is a philosopher because in the depths of his being there is an intense longing

39、 to penetrate to the meaning of the mysteries of existence. The inner deep longing expresses itself in various ways prior to any actual study of philosophy as a technical branch of human culture. Consequently every human being in so far as he has ever been or is a lover of wisdom has, to that extent

40、, a philosophy of life.（分数：15.00）(1).The title below that best expresses the idea of this passage is _.（分数：3.00）A.The Potential PhilosopherB.The Philosophy of PlatoC.The Philosopher Versus the ScientistD.The Philosopher Defined(2).According to the author, which statement concerning philosophers is m

41、ost nearly accurate?（分数：3.00）A.They are impractical.B.They are too radical.C.They are a thoughtful group.D.They have contempt for humanity.(3).The author indicates that a philosopher is a person who _.（分数：3.00）A.disregards factsB.loves wisdomC.desires technical knowledgeD.collects all types of data(

42、4).A philosopher wishes to _.（分数：3.00）A.systematize factsB.work by himselfC.show his contempt for knowledgeD.be all of the above(5).The author suggests that a man becomes a philosopher when he _.（分数：3.00）A.studies philosophy as a subjectB.collects all the factsC.realizes obvious truthsD.seeks a mean

43、ing for lifeHow men first learned to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and

44、 that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken, or written in letters, we call words. The power of words, then, lies in their associationsthe things they bring up before our m

45、inds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases. Great writers are those who not only have gr

46、eat thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary (文字的) style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words, lie can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by

47、 their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and rude.（分数：12.00）(1).The origin of language _.（分数：3.00）A.is a legend handed down from the pastB.is reflected in sounds and lett

48、ersC.dates back to the prehistoric periodD.is a problem not yet solved(2).One of the reasons why men invented certain sounds to express thoughts and actions is that _.（分数：3.00）A.they could agree upon certain signsB.they could write them downC.they could communicate with each otherD.they could combin
