A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as formal texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better. A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, I think, some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises (出现) from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered. There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that, instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I find such people, I must say so peculiar (奇怪的) that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girl-friend. No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever believed that it was.One of the reasons why some people are not in favor of fairy tales is that ().
A

they are full of imagination

B

they just make up the stories which are far from the truth

C

    Play
    Play is the principal business of childhood,and in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being. From earliest infancy,every child needs opportunity and the right materials for play,and the main tools of play are toys.Their main func- tion is to suggest,encourage and assist play.To succeed in this they must he good toys,which children will play with often,and will come back to again and again.Therefore it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages of a child's development.
    In recent years research on infant development has shown that the standard a child is likely to reach,within the range of his inherited abilities,is largely determined in the first three years of his life .So a baby's ability to profit from the right play materials should not be underestimated.A baby,who is encouraged and stimulated,talked to and shown things and played with,has the best chance of growing up successfully.
    In the next stage,from three to five years old,curiosity knows no bounds.Every type of suitable toy should be made available to the child,for trying out,experimenting and learning,for discovering his own particular ability. Bricks and jigsaws(七巧板)and construction toys ; painting,scribbling(涂鸦)and making things;sand and water play;toys for imaginative and pretending play;the first social games for learning to play and get on with others.
    By the third stage of play development—from five to seven or eight years—the child is at school .But for a few more years play is still the best way of learning,at home or at school.It is easier to see which type of toys the child most enjoys.
    Until the age of seven or eight,play and work mean much the same to a child.But once reading has been mastered,then books and schools become the main source of learning.Toys are still interesting and valuable,they lead on to new hobbies,but、their significance has changed—to a child of nine or ten years,toys and games mean,as to adults,relaxation and fun.

    Who have the best chance of growing up successfully?
    A: Those who tend to overeat.
    B:.Those who are given a lot of toys.
    C: Those who are given toys,talked to and played with.
    D: Those who can share their toys with their playmates.

    答案:C
    解析:
    这句话“…as a child grows up ,he should be given different toys”和第一段的最后一句话“…it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages of a child's development”(给处于不同生长期的孩子选择合适的玩具很重要)是一样的意思。


    本题的依据是第二段的第一句话,这句话中有一个介词短语:within the range of his inherited abilities,如果先抛开这个短语,句子的其余部分意为:近年对儿童成长的研究表明,孩子出生的头3年在很大程度上决定了他今后将达到的水平。但这个结论的限定是“在他遗传得到的能力范围之内”(within the range of his inherited abilities),也就是说孩子从父母那里遗传来的能力部分地决定了他可能达到的水平。


    答案的依据是第二段的最后一句话,选项C讲到的3点:given toys, talked to and played with在这句话里都可以找到:talked to and shown things and played with,只是次序稍有不同。


    第三段的第一句话告诉我们,孩子3~5岁时是好奇心最强的时候,所以B : around four,四岁前后,是正确答案。


    这道题的答案取决于对整篇文章的理解和把握,本文的题目是Play,第一段的第一句话就把文章的中心点出来了:…in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being.第二、第三、第四段分别讲了在1~3岁、3 ~5 岁、5~7/8岁这三个阶段玩耍对孩子成长的重要作用。

    Text 2

    A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in identically the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as sacred texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual circumstances of the time and the individual child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.

    A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or arousing his sadistic impulses. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not.

    Aggressive, destructive, sadistic impulses every child has and, on the whole, their symbolic verbal discharge seen is to be rather a safety valve than an incitement to overt action. As to fears, there are, I think, well-authenticated cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy stories.

    Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity. with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of the fear faced and mastered. There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two -headed dragons, magic carpets, etc., do not exist; and that, instead of indulging his fantasies in fairy tales, the child should be taught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics. I find such people, I must confess, so unsympathetic and peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a broomstick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their enchanted girl-friend.

    No fairy story ever claimed to be a description of the external world and no sane child has ever believed that it was.

    26. The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is ______.

    among children born out of wedlock there were more girls than boys.

    the chance of a woman giving birth to a girl is higher if she has been living with a man before the child was conceived.

    for parents who were not cohabiting, boys were born 51.5% of the time.

    D

    women who have not been living with a man are more likely to have daughters.


    正确答案: A
    解析:
    录音中Karen Norberg在研究中发现“the chance of a woman giving birth to a boy rather than a girl is higher if she has been living with a man before the child was conceived”,可见在他看来一个女人在怀孩子之前与一个男人一起生活那么她生男孩的几率就相对较大,因此选项D的推断正确。
    【录音原文】
    Can household arrangements affect the human sex ratio? According to Karen Norberg, of the National Bureau of Economic Research in Cambridge, Massachusetts, they can. In a review of data from almost 60, 000 American families, Dr Norberg found that the chance of a woman giving birth to a boy rather than a girl is higher if she has been living with a man before the child was conceived. To be specific, for parents who were living together, boys were born 51.5% of the time, while when the parents were not cohabiting only 49.9% of births were male. This difference may seem small, but statistically it is highly significant, which suggests it is the result of evolution.
