Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choi
By adopting a few simple techniques, parents who read to their children can greatly increase their children’’s language development. It is surprising but true. How parents talk to their children makes a big difference in the children’’s language development. If a parent encourages the child to actively respond to what the parent is reading, the child’’s language skills increase.
A study was done with 30 three-year-old children and their parents. Half of the children participated in the experimental study; the other half acted as the control group. In the experimental group, the parents were given a two-hour training session in which they were taught to ask open-ended questions rather than yes-or-no questions. For example, the parent should ask, "What is the doggie doing?" rather than "Is the doggie running away?" The parents in the experimental group were also instructed in how to help children find answers, how to suggest alternative possibilities and how to praise correct answers.
At the beginning of the study, the children did not differ in measures of language development, but at the end of one month, the children in the experimental group showed months ahead of the control group on a test of verbal expression and vocabulary. Nine months later, the children in the experimental group still showed an advance of 6 months over the children in the control group.
1. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A Children who talk a lot are more intelligent.
B Parents who listen to their children can teach them more.
C Active children should read more and be given more attention.
D Verbal ability can easily be developed with proper methods.
答案:D
本题考察的是考生对细节的把握。答案在第一段：“By adopting a few simple techniques，parents who read to their children can greatly increase their children
’s language development．(父母给孩子读书的时候，通过采用一些简朴的方法可以提高孩子的语言能力。)，因此可以得出这样的结论：“语言能力可以通过适当的方法来提高。”D对的
2. What does "it" in line 2 can most probably be replaced by?
A Parents increasing children’s language development_________.
B Reading techniques being simple
C Parents reading to children
D Children’s intelligence development
答案:A
本题考察的是考生对具体词汇及结构的把握。根据上文第一句和第三句中的children’s language development部分，可以看出it指父母能提高孩子的语言能力。代词的指代内容一般应从该句的上下句中找。
3. According to the author, which of the following questions is the best type to ask children about?
A Do you see the elephant?
B Is the elephant in the cage?
C What animals do you like?
D Shall we go to the zoo?
答案:C
本题考察的是考生对细节的把握。答案在第二段：“In the experimental group，the parents were given A two-hour training session in which they were taught to ask open-ended quest-tins rather than yes-or-no questions．(在进行实验的这一组里，给家长进行两小时的培训，让他们学会向孩子们提一些自由回答不能用是或不是回答的问题。)”再根据下文提问的举例可看出家长提出的最佳的问题应当是：“What animals do you like?(你喜欢什么样的动物?)”C为对的答案。
4. The difference between the control group and the experimental group was_________.
A the training that parents received
B the age of the children
C tile books that were read
D the number of the children
答案:A
本题考察的是考生对细节的把握。答案在第二段“In the experimental group，the parents were given a two-hour training session”(在进行实验的这一组里，给家长进行两小时的培训)，文章的调查研究中把孩子及其家长提成两组，显然区别在于实验组里的家长接受了培训。
5. The best conclusion we can draw from the passage is that_________.
A parents should be trained to read to their children
B the more children read, the more intelligent they will become
C children’s language skills increase when they are required to respond actively
D children who read actively seem six months older
答案:C
本题是推断题，也是考核对文章细节的把握。答案在第一段最后一句话。“If a parent encourages the child to actively respond to what the parent is reading，the child’s language skills increase．(假如家长鼓励孩子们对于家长给他们读的书的内容做出积极的反映，那么孩子们的语言能力就会提高。)”因此C为对的答案。
To us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain. It was first used as a shade against the sun.
Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, way back in the eleventh century .
We know that the umbrella was also used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use; it became a symbol of honor and authority. In the Far East In ancient times, the umbrella was allowed-to be used only by royal people or by those in high office.
In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrellas as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.
During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in 16th century. And again it became a symbol of power and authority.
Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn’’t until the twentieth century that women’’s umbrellas began to be made in a variety of colors.
6. The first use of umbrella was as_________.
A protection against rain
B a shade against the sun
C a symbol of power
D a symbol of honor
答案:B
本题考察的是考生对细节的把握。“But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain．It was first used as a shade against the sun．”根据第一段最后一句话可以得知。
7. _________were regarded as the people who first used umbrellas.
A Romans
B Greeks
C Chinese
D Europeans
答案:C
本题考察的是考生对具体句子的理解。“Probably the first to use it were the Chinese，”根据第二段可直接得知。
8. The umbrella was used only by royal people or those in high office_________.
A in European in the eighteenth century
B in ancient Egypt and Babylon
C in the Far East in ancient times
D during the Middle Ages
答案:C
本题考察的是考生对细节的把握。“In the Far East In ancient times，the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royal people or by those in high office．”根据第三段最后一句可得知。
9. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A Women enjoy using umbrella with varies kinds of colors
B The inventor of the umbrella is unknown
C Once ordinary people had no right to use umbrellas
D Umbrellas were popular and cheap in the ancient times
答案:D
本题考察的是考生对全文的把握以及关键点的理解。“And there was a strange thing connected with its use；it became a symbol of honor and authority．In the Far East In ancient times，the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royal people or by those in high office．”可知，雨伞在古代曾经是权利和荣耀的象征，所以只能由皇族和高官持有，故此项不对。
10. Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?
A When Was the Umbrella Invented
B The Role of Umbrella in History
C The Colors and Shapes of Umbrella
D Who Needed Umbrella First
答案:B
本题考察的是考生对全文意思的把握。通读全文可知，文章讲雨伞的不同角色，涉及遮阳，遮雨，在古代还能象征权利和荣誉，所以B能最佳地概括全文，其他项都太过片面。
The advantages and disadvantages of a large population have long been a subject of discussion among economists (经济学家). It has been argued that the supply of good land is limited. To feed a large population, inferior land must be cultivated and the good land worded intensively. Thus , each person produces less and this means a lower average income than could be obtained with a smaller population. Other economists have argued that a large population gives more scope for specialization and the development of facilities such as ports, roads and railways, which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand to justify them.
One of the difficulties in carrying out a world—wide birth control program lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw materials. In the developing country where a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, it will be the first concern of government to place a limit on the birthrate, whatever the consequences may be. In the highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex. A decreasing birth rate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactured goods. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened. Faced with considerations such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one which is stable or in decline.
11. A smaller population may mean_________.
A higher productivity, but a lower average income
B lower productivity, but a higher average income
C lower productivity, and a lower average income
D higher productivity, and a higher average income
答案:D
本题考察的是考生对细节的把握。见第一段，人口多时“each person produces less and this means a lower average income…”人口相对少时情况相反。因此D选项符合题意。A、B和C选项均不符合题意。
12. According to the passage, a large population will provide a chance for developing_________.
A agriculture
B transport system
C industry
D national economy
答案:B
本题考察的是考生对具体句子意思的把握。见第一段最后一句，“Other economists have argued that a large population gives more scope for specialization and the development of facilities such as ports，roads and railways，which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand to justify them。”依据这句话，举例“roads and railways”提醒我们选“transport system”。概括成B选项。其余选项文中找不到根据。
13. In a developed country, people will perhaps go out of work if the birthrate_________.
A goes up
B is decreasing
C remains stable
D is out of control
答案:B
本题考察的是考生对关键句子及整篇文章的把握。第二段指出，“A decreasing birth rate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactured goods．”这个题在文章中找不到直接的答案，必须通过间接的推理和排除。低出生率导致失业。所以选B。
14. According to the passage slowly rising birthrate perhaps is good for_________.
A a developed nation
B a developing nation
C every nation with a big population
D every nation with a small population
答案:A
本题考察的是考生对文章细节的把握。第二段最后一句，“the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population，rather than one which is stable or in decline发达国家政府更希望看到人口缓慢增长而不是……”可见，低增长的出生率更有助于发达国家。
15. It is no easy job to carry out a general plan for birth control throughout the world because_________.
A there are too many underdeveloped countries in the world
B underdeveloped countries have low level of industrial development
C different governments have different views about the problem
D even developed countries may have complex problems
答案:C
本题考察的是考生对全文的整体理解。“One of the difficulties in carrying out a world-wide birth control program lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw materials．在世界范围实行总体的计划生育不是一个简朴的工作”，因素在开头提到“态度……各国不同。”
