9、happen that children learn their mother tongue so well? When we compare them with adults learning a foreign language, we often find this interesting fact. A little child without knowledge or experience often succeeds in a complete mastery of the language. A grown-up person with fully developed menta

10、l powers, in most cases, may end up with a faulty and inexact command. What accounts for this difference? Despite other explanations, the real answer in my opinion lies partly in the child himself, partly in the behaviour of the people around him. In the first place, the time of learning the mother

11、tongue is the most favourable of all, namely, the first years of life. A child hears it spoken from morning till night and, what is more important, always in its genuine form, with the right pronunciation, fight intonation, right use of words and right structure. He drinks in all the words and expre

12、ssions which come to him in a flesh, ever-bubbling spring. There is no resistance: there is perfect assimilation. Then the child has, as it were, private lessons all the year round, while an adult language-student has each week a limited number of hours which he generally shares with others. The chi

13、ld has another advantage: he hears the language in all possible situations, always accompanied by the right kind of gestures and facial expressions. Here there is nothing unnatural, such as is often found in language lessons in schools, when one talks about ice and snow in June or scorching heat in

14、January, And what a child hears is generally what immediately interests him. Again and again, when his attempts at speech are successful, his desires are understood and fulfilled. Finally, though a childs “teachers“ may not have been trained in language teaching, their relations with him are always

15、close and personal. They take great pains to make their lessons easy. 16 Compared with adults learning a foreign language, children learn their native language with ease. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 17 Adults knowledge and mental powers hinder their complete mastery of a foreign languag

16、e. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 18 The reason why children learn their mother tongue so well lies solely in their environment of learning. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 19 Full exposure to the language spoken during the first years of life partly ensures the childs success of

17、learning his mother tongue. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 20 A child learning his native language has the advantage of having private lessons all the year round. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 21 Gestures and facial expressions may assist a child in mastering his native language

18、. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 22 So far as language teaching is concerned, the teachers close personal relationship with the student is more important than the professional language teaching training he has received. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 三、 概括大意与完成句子 (第 23-30题，每题 1分

The best buildings are often so well constructed that they outlast their original use. They then survive not onl

20、y as beautiful objects, but as documents of the history of cultures. These achievements are never wholly the work of individuals. Architecture is a social art. 2 The renaissance brought about an entirely new age, not only in philosophy and literature but in the visual arts as well. In architecture,

21、the principles and styles of ancient Greece and Rome were brought back to life and reinterpreted. They remain dominant until the 20th century. 3 Many kinds of stone are used as building materials. Stone and marble were chosen for important monuments because they are not burnable and can be expected

22、to endure. Stone architecture was often blended with stone sculpture. The use of stone has declined, however, because a number of other materials are more adaptable to industrial use. 4 The complexity of modem life calls for a variety of buildings, More people live in mass housing and go, to work in

23、 large office buildings; they spend their income in large shopping centers, send their children to many different kinds of schools, and when they are sick they go to specialized hospitals and clinics. All these different types of buildings accumulated experiences needed by their designers. 5 By the

24、middle of the 20th century, modem architecture, which was influenced by new technology and mass production, was dealing with increasingly complex social needs. Important characteristics of modem architectural works are expanses of glass and the use of reinforced concrete. Advances in elevator techno

It was in 1945 th

29、at Ruth and Elliot Handler joined with their close friend Harold Mattson to form a company that would be known for the most famous and successful doll ever created. This company would be named MATTEL, MATT for Mattson, and EL for Elliot. In the mid 1950s, while Visiting Switzerland, Ruth Handler pur

30、chased a German Lilli doll. Lilli was a shapely, pretty fashion doll first made in 1955. She was originally fashioned after a famous cartoon character in the West German Newsletter, Build. Lilli is the doll that would inspire Ruth Handler to design the Barbie doll. With the help of her technicians a

31、nd engineers at Mattel, Barbie was born. Ruth then hired Charlotte Johnson, a fashion designer, to create Barbies wardrobe. It was in 1958 that the patent for Barbie was obtained. This would be a fashion doll unlike any of her time. She would be long limbed, shapely, beautiful, and only 11.5 inches

32、tall. Ruth and Elliot would name their new fashion doll after their own daughter, Barbie. In 1959, the Barbie doll would make her way to the New York Toy Show and receive a cool reception from the toy buyers. Barbie has undergone a lot of changes over the years and has managed to keep up with curren

33、t trends in hairstyles, makeup and clothing. She is a reflection of the history of fashion since her introduction to the toy market. Barbie has a universal appeal and collectors both young and old enjoy time spent and memories made with their dolls. 31 When Ruth and Elliot Handler were young, they h

34、ad a strong desire （ A） to go to school, （ B） to take photos. （ C） to make frames. （ D） to be highly successful. 32 Who owned MATTEL? （ A） Mattson. （ B） Elliot. （ C） Harold Mattson and Elliot Handler. （ D） Harold Mattson, Ruth and Elliot Handler. 33 It can be inferred from the second paragraph that

35、Lilli was fashioned after （ A） Build. （ B） a German doll. （ C） a pretty girl. （ D） a shapely woman. 34 Where did Ruth Handlers inspiration for the design of the Barbie doll come from? （ A） Barbie. （ B） Lilli. （ C） Charlotte Johnson. （ D） A fashion designer. 35 Which of the following statements is NO

37、with some 16 - 17 hours wakefulness and that, broadly speaking, the sleep normally coincides with the hours of darkness. Our present concern is with how easily and to what extent this cycle can be modified. The question is no mere academic one. The case, for example, with which people can change fro

38、m working in the day to working at night is a question of growing importance in industry where automation calls insistently for round-the-clock working of machines. It normally takes from five days to one week for a person to adapt to a reversed routine of sleep and wakefulness, sleeping during the

39、day and working at night. Unfortunately, it is often the case in industry that shifts are changed every week; a person may work from 12 midnight to 8 a.m. one week, 8 am to 4 pm the next, and 4 pm to 12 midnight the third and so on. This means that no sooner has he got used to one routine than he ha

40、s to change to another, so that much of his time is spent neither working nor sleeping very efficiently. One answer would seem to be longer periods on each shift, a month, or even three months. Recent research by Bonjer of the Netherlands, however, has shown that people on such systems will revert t

41、o their normal habits of sleep and wakefulness during the weekend and that this is quite enough to destroy any adaptation to night work built up during the week. The only real solution appears to be to hand over the night shift to a corps of permanent night workers whose nocturnal wakefulness may pe

42、rsist through all weekends and holidays. An interesting study of the domestic life and health of night-shift workers was carried out by Brown. She found a high incidence of disturbed sleep, digestive disorder and domestic disruption among those on alternating day and night shifts, but no abnormal oc

43、currence of these symptoms among those on permanent night work. 36 The question raised in Paragraph 1 is “no mere academic one“ （ A） because Bonjers findings are different from Browns. （ B） because sleep normally coincides with the hours of darkness. （ C） because some people can change their sleepin

44、g habits easily. （ D） because shift work in industry requires people to change their sleeping habits. 37 According to the passage, the main problem about night work is that （ A） people hate the inconvenience of working on night shifts. （ B） your life is disturbed by changing from day to night routin

45、es and back. （ C） not all industries work at the same hours. （ D） it is difficult to find a corps of good night workers. 38 According to the passage, the best solution to the problem seems to be （ A） not to change shifts from one week to the next. （ B） to make periods on each shift longer. （ C） to e

46、mploy people who will always work at night. （ D） to find ways of selecting people who adapt quickly. 39 In the second paragraph, “the third“ means （ A） the third week. （ B） the third shift. （ C） a third of the time. （ D） the third routine. 40 In the last sentence of the second paragraph, “another“ m

47、eans （ A） another routine. （ B） another shift. （ C） another week. （ D） another person. 41 Orbital Space Plane While scientists are searching the cause of the Columbia disaster, NASA is moving ahead with plans to develop a new craft that would replace shuttles on space station missions by 2012 and re

48、spond quickly to space station emergencies. The space agency released the first set of mission needs and requirements several days ago for the orbital space plane, which would be designed to transport a crew of four to and from the International Space Station. Although it includes few specifics, the

49、 plan stipulates the orbiter will be safer, cheaper and require less preparation time than the shuttle. It would be able to transport four crew members by 2012 - though it would be available for rescue missions by 2010. NASA says the craft should be able to transport injured or ill space station crew members to “definitive medical care“ within 24 hours. The release of the requirements showed NASA remains focused on the long-term priorities of space exploration, even as questions linger concerning the loss of Columbia and its se
