our knowledge of ourselves and the world about us When humans first 36 they were like newborn children unable to use this 37 tool Yet once language developed the possibilities for mankind s future 38 and cultural growth increased Many language experts believe that evolution is 39 for our ability to produce and use language They 40 that our highly evolved brain provides us 41 an innate 天生的 language ability not found in lower 42 Proponents 倡议者 of this innateness theory say that our 43 for language is inborn but that language itself develops gradually 44 a function of the growth of the brain during childhood Therefore there are critical 45 times for language development Current 46 of innateness theory are mixed however evidence supporting the existence of some innate abilities is undeniable 47 more and more schools are discovering that foreign languages are best taught in 48 grades Young children often can learn several languages by being 49 to them while adults have a much harder time learning another language once the 50 of their first language have become firmly fixed 51 some aspects of language are undeniably innate language does not develop automatically in a vacuum 真空 Children who have been 52 from other human beings do not possess language This demonstrates that 53 with other human beings is necessary for proper language development Some language experts believe that this is even more basic to human language 54 than any innate capacities These theorists view language as imitative learned behavior 55 children learn language from their parents by imitating them Parents gradually shape their child s language skills by positively reinforcing precise imitations and negatively reinforcing imprecise ones 36 A generatedB evolved C born D originated

2 分 满分 40 分 A Packaging is a very important form of advertising A package can sometimes motivate people to buy products For example a little child might ask for a breakfast food contained in a box with a picture of a TV character The child is more interested in the picture than in breakfast food Pictures for children to color or cut out games printed on a package or a small gift inside a box also motivate many children to buy products or to ask their parents to buy for them Some packages suggest that a buyer will get something for nothing Food products sold in reusable containers are examples of this Although a similar product in plain container might cost less people often prefer to buy the product in a reusable glass or dish because they believe the container is free However the cost of the container is added to the cost of the product The size of a package also motivates a buyer Maybe the package has Economy Size 大包装 or Family Size 特大号包装 printed on it This suggests that the larger size has the most product for the least money But that is not always true To find it out a buyer has to know how the product is sold and the price of the basic unit The information on the package should provide some answers But the important thing for any buyer to remember is that a package is often an advertisement The words and pictures do not tell the whole story Only the product inside can do that 56 The first and the last sentences in paragraph 2 may probably mean A a buyer will not get what he pays for B a buyer will get more than what he pays for C a buyer will get something useful free of charge D a buyer will get more but pay less 57 From the passage we know the buyer pays more attention to A the size of a container B a container with attractive pictures C a well designed container D a plain container with low cost 58 What suggestion does the writer give in the passage A It s not good to buy the product which is sold in a glass or dish B The quality of a container has nothing to do with the quality of the product C The best choice for a buyer is to buy a product in a plain package D A buyer should buy what he needs most rather than a well designed package 59 What do you think is the best title for the passage A Packaging of Products B How to Make an Advertisement C How to Sell Products D How to Attract More Buyers B Internet use appears to cause a drop in psychological health according to research at Carnegie Mellon University Even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet experienced more bad feelings and loneliness than those who was online less frequently the two year study showed Researchers are puzzling over the results which were completely contrary to their expectations They expected that the Net would prove socially healthier than television since the Net allows users to choose their information and to communicate with others The fact that Internet use reduces time available for family and friends may account for the drop in psychological health researchers hypothesized 推测 Faceless bodiless virtual 虚的 communication may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversation and the relationships formed through it may be shallower Another possibility is that exposure to the wider world through the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives But it s important to remember this is not about the technology it s about how it is used says psychologist Christine Riley of Intel one of the study s sponsors 发起 人 It really points to the need for considering social factors in terms of how you design applications and services for technology 60 What had the researchers expected before the research A The Net may account for the drop in psychological health B Internet use may improve psychological health C Internet use has nothing to do with psychological health D Spending much time on the Internet makes people feel bad and lonely 61 Which is not true according to the passage A The Net allows users to choose their information and to communicate with others B Internet communication may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversation C Undeveloped Internet technology causes the drop in psychological health D The wider world through the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives 62 What does Christine Riley the psychologist suggest A It s necessary to take social factors into account in designing applications and services for technology B It s important to tell the users how to design and apply the technology C Compared with social factors the technology itself has more influence on the Internet users D No social factors should be considered in applications and services for technology 63 Which of the following would be the most appropriate title for the passage A How to Use the Internet B Disadvantages of the Internet C Social Factors and the Internet D Internet May Cause Bad Feelings C As we have seen the focus of medical care in our society has been shifting from curing disease to preventing disease especially in terms of changing our many unhealthy behavior such as poor eating habits smoking and failure to exercise The line of thought involved in this shift can be pursued further Imagine a person who is about the right weight but does not eat very nutritious foods who feels OK but exercises only occasionally who goes to work every day but is not an outstanding worker who drinks a few beers at home most nights but does not drive while drunk and who has no chest pains or abnormal blood counts 血细胞计数 but sleeps a lot and often feels tired This person is not ill He may not even be at risk for any particular disease But we can imagine that this person could be a lot healthier The field of medicine has not traditionally distinguished between someone who is merely not ill and someone who is in excellent health and pays attention to the body s special needs Both types have simply been called well In recent years however some health specialists have begun to apply the terms well and wellness only to those who are actively striving to maintain and improve their health People who are well are concerned with nutrition and exercise and they make a point of monitoring their body s condition Most important perhaps people who are well take active responsibility for all matters related to their health Even people who have a physical disease or handicap 缺陷 may be well in this new sense if they make an effort to maintain the best possible health they can in the face of their physical limitations Wellness may perhaps best be viewed not as a state that people can achieve but as an ideal that people can strive for People who are well are likely to be better able to resist disease and to fight disease when it strikes And by focusing attention on healthy ways of living the concept of wellness can have a beneficial impact on the ways in which people face the challenges of daily life 64 Today medical care is placing more stress on A keeping people in a healthy physical condition B monitoring patients body functions C removing people s bad living habits D ensuring people s psychological well being 65 In the first paragraph people are reminded that A good health is more than not being ill B drinking even if not to excess could be harmful C regular health checks are essential to keeping fit D prevention is more difficult than cure 66 Traditionally a person is considered well if he A does not have any unhealthy living habits B does not have any physical handicaps C is able to handle his daily routines D is free from any kind of disease 67 According to the author the true meaning of wellness is for people A to best satisfy their body s special needs B to strive to maintain the best possible health C to meet the strictest standards of bodily health D to keep a proper balance between work and leisure D Psychiatrists 精神病专家 who work with older parents say that maturity can be an asset in child rearing older parents are more thoughtful use less physical discipline and spend more time with their children But raising kids takes money and energy Many older parents find themselves balancing their limited financial resources declining energy and failing health against the growing demands of an active child Dying and leaving young children is probably the older parents biggest and often unspoken fear Having late life children says an economics professor often means parents particularly fathers end up retiring much later For many retirement becomes an unobtainable dream Henry Metcalf a 54 year old journalist knows it takes money to raise kids But he s also worried that his energy will give out first Sure he can still ride bikes with his athletic fifth grader but he s learned that young at heart doesn t mean young Lately he s been taking afternoon naps 午睡 to keep up his energy My body is aging says Metcalf You can t get away from that Often older parents hear the ticking of another kind of biological clock Therapists who work with middle aged and older parents say fears about aging are nothing to laugh at They worry they ll be mistaken for grandparents or that they ll need help getting up out of those little chairs in nursery school says Joann Galst a New York psychologist But at the core of those little fears there is often a much bigger one that they won t be alive long enough to support and protect their child she says Many late life parents though say their children came at just the right time After marrying late and undergoing years of fertility 受孕 treatment Marilyn Nolen and her husband Randy had twins We both wanted children says Marilyn who was 55 when she gave birth The twins have given the couple what they desired for years a sense of family Kids of older dads are often smarter happier and more sociable because their fathers are more involved in their lives The dads are older more mature says Dr Silber and more ready to focus on parenting 68 Why do psychiatrists regard maturity as an asset in child rearing A Older parents are often better prepared financially B Older parents can take better care of their children C Older parents are usually more experienced in bringing up their children D Older parents can better balance their resources against children s demands 69 The author gives the example of Henry Metcalf to show that A older parents should exercise more to keep up with their athletic children B many people are young in spirit despite their advanced age C older parents tend to be concerned about
