17、g mother watched her husband diaper(给 .换尿布 ) their firstborn son. “You dont have to be so unhappy about it,“ she protested. “You can talk to him and smile a little.“ The father, who happened to be a psychologist, answered firmly, “He has nothing to say to me, and I have nothing to say to him.“ Psych

18、ologists now know how wrong that father was. From the moment of birth, a baby has a great deal to say to his parents and they to him. But a decade or so ago, these experts were describing the newborn as a primitive creature who reacted only by reflex, a helpless victim of its environment without cap

19、acity to influence it. And mothers accepted the truth. Most thought(and some still do) that a new infant could see only blurry shadows, that his other senses were undeveloped, and that all he required was nourishment, clean diapers, and a warm bassinet. Today university laboratories across the count

20、ry are studying newborns in their first month of life. As a result, psychologists now describe the new baby as perceptive, with remarkable learning abilities and an even more remarkable capacity to shape his or her environmentincluding the attitudes and actions of his parents. Some researchers belie

21、ve that the neonatal period may even be the most significant four weeks in an entire lifetime. Far from being helpless, the newborn knows what he likes and rejects what he doesnt. He shuts out unpleasant sensations by closing his eyes or averting his face. He is a glutton for novelty. He prefers ani

22、mate things over inanimate and likes people more than anything. When a mere nine minutes old, an infant prefers a human face to a head-shaped outline. He makes the choice despite the fact that, with delivery-room attendants masked and gowned, he has never seen a human face before. By the time hes tw

23、elve hours old, his entire body moves in precise synchrony to the sound of a human voice, as if he were dancing. A non-human sound, such as a tapping noise, brings no such response. 36 The author points out that the father diapering his firstborn son was wrong because _. （ A） he thought the baby did

24、nt have the power of speech （ B） he believed the baby was not able to hear him （ C） he was a psychologist unworthy of his profession （ D） he thought the baby was not capable of any response 37 According to the package, which of the following is TRUE? （ A） A new infant can see only blurry shadows. （

25、B） A new infants senses are undeveloped. （ C） All a new infant requires is nourishment, clean diapers, and a warm bassinet. （ D） A new infant is actually able to influence his or her environment. 38 What does the sentence “He is a glutton for novelty“ probably mean? （ A） The newborn is greedy for ne

26、w food. （ B） The newborn tends to overeat. （ C） The newborn always loves things that are new to him. （ D） The newborns appetite is a constant topic in novels. 39 According to the passage, its groundless to think that newborns prefer _. （ A） a human face to a head-shaped outline （ B） animate things t

27、o inanimate ones （ C） human voice to non-human sounds （ D） nourishment to a warm bassinet 40 What is the passage mainly discussing about? （ A） What people know about newborns. （ B） How wrong parents are when they handle their babies. （ C） How much newborns have progressed in about a decades time. （

28、D） Why the first month of life is the most significant four weeks in a lifetime. Task 2 Directions: This task is the same as Task 1.

33、ecorder run by electricity. However, the vote recorder was not a success. In 1870, he sold another invention, a stock-ticker, for $40,000.

34、otally deaf in one ear and hard of hearing in the other, but thought of his deafness as a blessing in many ways. It kept conversations short, so that he could have more time for work.
