24、 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 in this they must

25、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 child s development.In recent years research on infant development has shown the standard a child is likely to reach, within the range of h

26、is 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 growing up successf

27、ully.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; painting, scribbling and

28、making things; sand and water play; toys for imaginative and pretending play; the first social games for leaning to play and get on with others.By the third stage of play developmentfrom five to seven or eight yearsthe child is at school. But for a few more years play is still the best way of learni

29、ng, 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 still interesting and valu

30、able, they lead on to new hobbies, but their significance has changedto a child of nine or ten years, toys and games mean, as to adults, relaxation and fun.（分数：10.00）(1).The writer wants us to understand that a child_.（分数：2.00）A.has to be taught how to playB.likes a toyC.matures through playD.can gr

31、ow up with toys(2).Toys have several functions except_.（分数：2.00）A.helping children to playB.urging children to playC.recommending ways for children to playD.asking children to play(3).The passage tells us that children are the most curious when they are about_.（分数：2.00）A.fours years oldB.six years o

32、ldC.one year oldD.two years old(4).The passage is about_.（分数：2.00）A.the importance of educationB.the importance of playC.the childrens speech developmentD.the relationship between play and study(5).Which of the following does the author NOT express?（分数：2.00）A.The function of toys is to inspire play.

33、B.Good toys are very important to the childrens growth.C.Toys should be chosen according to childrens ages.D.Toys are still the main source of learning for a student.BText 2/BNowadays, a standard for measuring power has changed. These changes foretell a new standard for measuring power. No longer wi

34、ll a nations political influence be based solely on the strength of its military forces. Of course, military effectiveness will remain a primary measure of power. But political influence is also closely tied to industrial competitiveness. Its often said that without its military the Soviet Union wou

35、ld really be a third-world nation. The new standard of power and influence that is evolving now places more emphasis on the ability of a country to compete effectively in the economic markets of the world.America must recognize this new course of events. Our success in shaping world events over the

36、past 40 years has been the direct result of our ability to adapt technology and to take advantage of the capabilities of our people for the purpose of maintaining peace. Our industrial prowess(威力)over most of this period was unchallenged. It is ironic(有讽刺性的) that it is just this prowess that has ena

37、bled other countries to prosper and in turn to threaten our industrial leadership.The competitiveness of Americas industrial base is an issue bigger than the department of defense and is going to require the efforts of the major institutional forces in our society, government, industry, and educatio

38、n. That is not to say that the defense department will not be a strong force in the process. But we simply cannot be, nor should we be, looked upon by others as the savior(救星) of American industry.（分数：10.00）(1).Now a nations political influence depends on_.（分数：2.00）A.the strength of its military for

39、cesB.its ability to compete in industryC.economic marketsD.both A and B(2).The Soviet Union was not being listed as a third-world nation just because of_.（分数：2.00）A.its powerful military forcesB.its vast landC.its industrial competitivenessD.its contributions to world peace(3).The author indicates t

40、hat_is threatening American political power.（分数：2.00）A.other countriesB.the declining U.S. industrial baseC.a new standard for measuring powerD.less advanced technology(4).America succeeded in shaping world events over the past 40 years probably because of_.（分数：2.00）A.its ability to adapt technology

41、B.its ability to take advantage of the capabilities of its peopleC.its ability to compete in the word marketsD.both A and B(5).The purpose of writing this article is_.（分数：2.00）A.to draw the readers attention to a new standard for measuring powerB.to demonstrate America political influence in the wor

42、dC.to emphasize that effort must be made to strengthen the declining U.S. industrial baseD.to show American industrial prowessBText 3/BIncreasingly, over the past ten years, peopleespecially young peoplehave become aware of the need to change their eating habit, because much of the food they eat, pa

43、rticularly processed foods, is not good for health. Consequently, there has been a growing interest in natural foods: foods which do not contain chemical additives and which have not been affected by chemical fertilizers, widely used in farming today.Natural foods, for example, are vegetable, fruit

44、and grain which have been grown in soil and are rich in organic matter. In simple terms, this means that the soil has been nourished by unused vegetable matter, which provides it with essential vitamins and minerals. This in itself is a natural process compared with the use of chemicals and fertiliz

45、ers, the main purpose of which is to increase the amount but not the qualityof foods grown in commercial fanning areas.Natural foods also include animals which have been allowed to feed and move freely in healthy pastures. Compare this with what happens in the mass production of poultry: there are b

46、attery farm, for example, where thousands of chickens live crowded together in one building and are fed on food which is little better than rubbish. Chickens kept in this way are not only tasteless as food; they also produce eggs which lack important vitamins.There are other aspects of healthy eatin

47、g which are now receiving increasing attention from experts on diet. Take, for example, the question of sugar. This is actually a nonessential food ! Although a natural alternative, such as honey, can be used to sweeten food if it is necessary, we can in fact do without it. It is not that sugar is h

48、armful in itself. But it does seem to be addictive: the quantity we use has grown steadily over the last two centuries and in Britain today each person consumes an average of 200 pounds a year! Yet all it does is to provide us with energy, in the form of calories. There are no vitamins in it ,no minerals ,and no fibre.It is significant that nowadays fibre is considered to be an important part of a healthy diet. In white bread, for example, the fibre has been removed. But it is present in unrefined flour and of course in vegetables. It is interesting to note that in co
