2、ens language development. If a parent encourages the child to actively respond to what the parent is reading, the childs language skills increase.

3、the control group. In the experimental group, the parents were given a two-hour training session in which they were taught to ask open-ended questions rather than yes-or-no questions.

4、s in the experimental group were also instructed in how to help children find answers, how to suggest alternative possibilities and how to praise correct answers.

10、em six months olderTo us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain. It was first used as a shade against the sun. Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient t

11、imes. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, way back in the eleventh century B.C. We know that the umbrella was also used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use; it became a symbol of honor and authority. In the Far East In ancient t

12、imes, the umbrella was allowed-to be used only by royal people or by those in high office. In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrellas as protect

13、ion against the rain were the ancient Romans. During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in 16th century. And again it became a symbol of power and authority. Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have

14、 become much lighter in weight. It wasnt until the twentieth century that womens umbrellas began to be made in a variety of colors. （分数：1.00）(1).The first use of umbrella was as_.（分数：0.20）A.protection against rainB.a shade against the sunC.a symbol of powerD.a symbol of honor(2)._were regarded as th

It has been arg

18、ued that the supply of good land is limited. To feed a large population, inferior land must be cultivated and the good land worded intensively. Thus , each person produces less and this means a lower average income than could be obtained with a smaller population. Other economists have argued that a

19、 large population gives more scope for specialization and the development of facilities such as ports, roads and railways, which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand to justify them. One of the difficulties in carrying out a worldwide birth control program lies in the fact that of

20、ficial attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw materials. In the developing country where a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, it w

21、ill be the first concern of government to place a limit on the birthrate, whatever the consequences may be. In the highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex. A decreasing birth rate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactured goods. When the

22、 pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened. Faced with considerations such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one which is stable or in decline. （分数：1.00）(1).A

23、smaller population may mean_.（分数：0.20）A.higher productivity, but a lower average incomeB.lower productivity, but a higher average incomeC.lower productivity, and a lower average incomeD.higher productivity, and a higher average income(2).According to the passage, a large population will provide a ch
