19、ked A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice. 35 Experts say children can begin learning a second language in preschool, and should begin before the age of ten to take advantage of young childrens natural ability to acquire language. This advantage is lost by the time most children encount

20、er (遇到 ) a foreign language in the classroom, in middle school or high school. Dr. Noble Goss, an assistant professor of Spanish and German at Harding University in Arkansas, says, “As a father of bilingual (双语的 ) children (My wife is Mexican), I know that not only it is easy for children to learn o

21、ne or more languages, but they have an amazing way of separating them out more successfully than you would think. “ If a child hears two languages early, he accepts both equally. But if given a chance to speak both, can they be fluent in both? Not everyone agrees that early childhood is the only tim

22、e to start a language, however. Reeves, the chairman and founder of the Center for Performance Assessment in Denver, Colorado, points to the Defense Language Institutes success at training adult students to speak other language fluently. “The frequently quoted argument that post-adolescence (青春期后 )

23、is too late to acquire foreign language skills is still a mystery,“ says Reeves. Still, if children are going to devote the six years or so of study it takes to master a second language, starting early just makes sense. 36 Experts advise starting a foreign language early because . （ A） children have

24、 a special talent to learn languages （ B） it will take a very long time to master a language （ C） the linguistic ability will be weakened as one grows up （ D） children have an amazing way to separate two languages 37 If a child lives iii a bilingual family, he will probably . （ A） speak both languag

26、children （ C） adults are afraid of making mistakes in learning foreign languages （ D） unknown until now 39 The phrase “make sense“ in the last sentence probably means“ “. （ A） starting early isnt a good idea （ B） starting early sounds reasonable （ C） starting early makes one sensitive to language （

27、D） starting early makes one acquire a language better 40 The best title of the passage is _. （ A） The Earlier, the Better （ B） Early Bird Can Get the Worm （ C） Starting a Second Language Learning Early （ D） Children Has a Natural Bilingual Ability Task 2 Directions: This task is the same as Task 1.

28、The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. 40 All of us communicate with one another nonverbally (不使用言语地 ), as well as with words. Most of the time, we are not aware that we are doing it. We gesture with eyebrows or a hand, meet someone elses eyes and look away, change posi

29、tions in a chair. These actions we assume are occasional. However in recent years researchers have discovered that there is a system to them almost as consistent (一致的 ) and understandable as language. One important kind of body language is eye behavior. Americans are Careful about how and when they

30、meet one anothers eyes. In our normal conversation, each eye contact lasts only about a second before one or both of us look away. When two Americans look searchingly into each others eyes, they become more intimate. Therefore, we carefully avoid this, except in suitable situations. Researchers who

31、are engaged in the study of communication through body movement are not prepared to spell out a precise vocabulary of gestures. When an American rubs his nose, it may mean he is disagreeing with someone or refusing something. But there are other possible explanations, too. Another example: when a st

32、udent in conversation with a professor holds the older mans eyes a little longer than usual, it can be a sign of respect; it can be a challenge to the professors authority; it can be something else entirely. The researchers look for patterns in the situation, not for a separate meaningful gesture. C

35、ough body movements 43 The word “intimate“ (Line 4, Para. 2) probably means . （ A） great （ B） close （ C） good （ D） important 44 According to the passage, you make an American person feel uncomfortable if . （ A） you meet his eyes friendly （ B） avoid meeting his eyes （ C） stare into his eyes for one s

36、econd （ D） look into his eyes for a long time 45 It is implied in the third paragraph that . （ A） researchers explain the meaning of a gesture according to the situation in which it is used （ B） researchers believe that one gesture has only one meaning （ C） researchers think that one certain gesture

37、 can not be used in another situation （ D） researchers look for patterns in textbooks to explain the meaning of a gesture Task 3 Directions: The following is a passage.
