It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on. But since these cant be said to show the babys intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new words to their store. This selfimitation(模仿)leads on to deliberate(有意的)imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.It is a problem we need to get our teeth into. The meaning of a word depends on what a particular person means by it in a particular situation and it is clear that what a child means by a word will change as he gains more experience of the world.Thus the use at seven months of “mama” as a greeting for his mother cannot be dismissed as a meaningless sound simply because he also uses it at other times for his father, his dog, or anything else he likes. Playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself, I doubt, however whether anything is gained when parents take advantage of this ability in an attempt to teach new sounds.36Before children start speaking_.Athey need equal amount of listeningBthey need different amounts of listeningCthey are all eager to cooperate with the adults by obeying spoken instructionsDthey cant understand and obey the adults oral instructions答案B根據(jù)第一段“Children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking”，可直接得到答案；C選項錯在all。37Children who start speaking late_.Amay have problems with their listeningBprobably do not hear enough language spoken around themCusually pay close attention to what they hear Doften take a long time in learning to listen properly答案D根據(jù)第一段“Language learning begins with listening.”，“l(fā)ater starters are often long listeners”，可知晚說話的孩子晚在花很長時間在聽上，聽也就是接受說前的指導(dǎo)。38A babys first noises are_.Aan expression of his moods and feelingsBan early form of languageCa sign that he means to tell you somethingDan imitation of the speech of adults答案A根據(jù)第二段“during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on.”可知，孩子的“first noises”只是情感的表露，不能被看成是最初的語言形式，也還遠沒到模仿大人語言的階段。39The problem of deciding at what point a babys imitations can be considered as speech_.Ais important because words have different meanings for different peopleBis not especially important because the changeover takes place graduallyCis one that should be properly understood because the meaning of words changes with ageDis one that should be completely ignored(忽略)because childrens use of words is often meaningless 答案B從最后一段，尤其是最后一句話可知，作者對大人利用孩子的模仿能力教給他們新的語言是否會有成效持懷疑態(tài)度。但也不能“be dismissed as a meaningless sound simply”。40The speaker implies_.Aparents can never hope to teach their children new soundsBchildren no longer imitate people after they begin to speakCchildren who are good at imitating learn new words more quicklyDeven after they have learnt to speak, children still enjoy imitating答案D由最后一段“Playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself，”可知。A太絕對；B與文中敘述不符；C文中沒有依據(jù)。寫作素材集錦單詞imaginative想象的短語have a look at看一看句子Most parents，I suppose，have had the experience of reading a bedtime story to their children.我想大部分的父母都曾有過給孩子讀睡前故事的經(jīng)歷。8
