18、 is, everyone agrees, a huge task that the child performs when he learns to speak, and the fact that he does so in so short a period of time challenges explanation.Language learning begins with U(26) /U. Individual children U(27) /U greatly in the amount of listening they do before they start speaki

19、ng, and U(28) /U starters are often long listeners. Most children will “obey“ spoken U(29) /U some time before they can speak, though the word obey is hardly U(30) /U as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will also as

20、k questions by U(31) /U and by making questioning noises.Any U(32) /U to trace the development from the noises babies U(33) /U to their first spoken words leads to U(34) /U difficulties. It is U(35) /U that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises U(36) /U the

21、mselves out as particularly U(37) /U of delight, distress, sociability, and so on. But since these cannot be said to show the babys intention to U(38) /U, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they U(39) /U with sounds for enjoyment,

22、and U(40) /U by six months they are able to add new sounds to their U(41) /U. This self-imitation leads on to U(42) /U imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them U(43) /U other people. The problem then U(44) /U as to the point at U(45) /U one can say that these imitations can be considered as

Of course, this is not s

26、urprising. Without the nose, obviously, we could not breathe or smell. It is the part of the face that gives a person special character. Cyrano de Bergerac said a large nose showed a great man courageous, courteous, manly and intellectual.A famous woman poet wished that she had two noses to smell a

27、rose! Blaise Pascal, a French philosopher, made an interesting comment about Cleopatras nose. If it had been shorter, he said, it would have changed the whole face of the world!Historically, mans nose has had a principal role in his imagination. Man has referred to the nose in many ways to express h

28、is emotions. Expressions concerning the nose refer to human weakness: anger, jealousy and revenge.In English there are a number of phrases about the nose. For example, Uto hold up ones nose/U expresses a basic human feeling pride. People can hold up their noses at people, things, and places.The phra

29、se, Uto be led around by the nose/U, shows mans weakness. A person who is led around by the nose lets other people control him. On the other hand, a person who Ufollows his nose/U lets his instinct guide him.For the human emotion of rejection, the phrase Uto have ones nose put out of joint/U is very

30、 descriptive. The expression applies to persons who have been turned aside because of a competitor. Their pride is hurt and they feel rejected. This expression is not new. It was used by Erasmus in 1542.This is only a sampling of expressions in English dealing with the nose. There are a number of ot

31、hers. However, it should be Uas plain as the nose on your face/U that the nose is more than an organ for breathing and smelling!（分数：10.00）(1).Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?（分数：2.00）A.Mans Nose Reflecting His Language AbilityB.Mans Nose and Interesting ExpressionsC.As Pl

32、ain as the Nose on the FaceD.Famous People Talking about Mans Nose(2).It can be inferred from the passage that _.（分数：2.00）A.the human nose is the most important organB.mans nose has been the source of human imaginationC.a perfect individual would seldom feel proud, lose temper or envy othersD.not un

33、til recently did man link his nose with the expression of his emotions(3).Which of the following expressions can be used to refer to a person who has no will of his own?（分数：2.00）A.To hold up one nose.B.To follow ones nose.C.To be as plain as the nose on ones face.D.To be led around by the nose.(4).T

34、he words “more than“ in the last sentence of the passage are closest in meaning to which of the following?（分数：2.00）A.Merely.B.Clearly.C.More or less.D.Not only.(5).By “as plain as the nose on your face“, the writer means that what he mentions at the end of the passage is something _.（分数：2.00）A.obvio

35、usB.mysteriousC.awkwardD.humorousBText 2/BAnother common type of reasoning is the search for causes and results. We want to know whether cigarettes really do cause lung cancer, what causes malnutrition, the decay of cities, or the decay of teeth. We are equally interested in effects: what is the eff

36、ect of sculpture or lead in the atmosphere, of oil spills and raw sewage in rivers and the sea, of staying up late on the night before an examination?Causal reasoning may go from cause to effect or from effect to cause. Either way, we reason from what we know to what we want to find out. Sometimes w

37、e reason from an effect to a cause and then on to another effect. Thus, if we reason that because the lights have gone out, the refrigerator wont work, we first relate the effect (lights out) to the cause (power off) and then relate that cause to another effect (refrigerator not working). This kind

38、of reasoning is called, for short, effect to effect. It is quite common to reason through an extensive chain of causal relations. When the lights go out we might reason in the following causal chain: lights out power off refrigerator not working temperature will rise milk will sour. In other words,

39、we diagnose a succession of effects from the power failure, each becoming the cause of the next.Causes are classified as necessary, sufficient, or contributory. A necessary cause is one which must be present for the effect to occur, as combustion is necessary to drive a gasoline engine. A sufficient

40、 cause is one which can produce an effect unaided, though there may be more than one sufficient cause: a dead battery is enough to keep a car from starting, but faulty spark plugs, or an empty gas tank will have the same effect. A contributory cause is one which helps to produce an effect but cannot

41、 do so by itself, as running through a red light may help cause an accident, though other factors pedestrians or other cars in the intersection must also be present.In establishing or refuting a causal relation it is usually necessary to show the process by which the alleged cause produces the effec

42、t. Such an explanation is called a causal process.（分数：10.00）(1).What the author discussed in the previous section is most probably about _.（分数：2.00）A.relationships between causes and resultsB.classification of reasoningC.some other common types of reasoningD.some special type of reasoning(2).Accordi

43、ng to the passage, to do the “effect to effect“ reasoning is to reason _.（分数：2.00）A.from cause to effectB.from effect to causeC.from effect to effect and on to causeD.from effect to cause and on to another effect(3).A necessary cause is _.（分数：2.00）A.one without which it is impossible for the effect

44、to occurB.one of the causes that can produce the effectC.one that is enough to make the effect occurD.None of them.(4).Your refrigerator is not working and you have found that the electric power has been cut off. The power failure is a _.（分数：2.00）A.necessary causeB.sufficient causeC.contributory cau

45、seD.None of them.(5).This passage mainly discusses _.（分数：2.00）A.causal reasoningB.various types of reasoningC.classification of causesD.the causal processBText 3/BIn the seventeenth century, European soldiers who came across some Indian groups in the western Great Lakes found that several native tri

46、bes were living in the area without a formal leadership system. They appeared to be “quite friendly with each other without a formal authority!“Not only did the Indians appear to lack a formal system of authority, but they also deeply hated any efforts to control their actions. All members of the tr

47、ibes knew what was required of them by lifelong familiarity with the tasks of the area. These tasks tended to be simple, since the Indians rate of social change was slow. Thus, although subgroups such as soldiers had recognized leaders, no real authority was required. Rather than giving direct order

48、s (which were considered rough), members of the tribes would arouse others to action by examples.It would be difficult, if not impossible, to carry out such a system in our own society. Most of us have grown up under one authority or another for as long as we can remember. Our parents, our teachers, our bosses, our government all have the recognized right under certain conditions to tell us what to do. The authority is so much a part of our culture that it is hard for us to imagine a workable society without it. We have been used to relying o
