Individual children vary greatly in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and late starters are often long listeners. Most children willobey spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word obey is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gestures and by making questioning noises.Any attempt to trace the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words lead to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves out as particularly indicative (标示的) of delight, distress, sociability, and so on. But since these cannot be said to show the baby’s 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 sounds to their store. This self-imitation (自我模仿) leads on to deliberate imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arisen so to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.It is a problem we need not 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 say 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(顽皮的)and apparently 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, cash in on this ability in an attempt to teach new sounds.It can be inferred from the passage that when a 7-month baby calls his or her moth-er "mama"（）Ait is the first meaningful sound pronounced by himBhe probably has already known the meaning of mamaChe probably does not know the sound stands for motherDhe probably has known that mother should be called in this way2.For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words.In (36) a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend (37) can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are (38) readers.Most of us develop poor reading (39) at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency (40) in the actual stuff of language itselfwords. Taken individually, words have (41) meaning until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and para-graphs. (42) , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to (43) words or passages.Regression, the tendency to look back over (44) you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which (45) down the speed of reading is vocalizationsounding each word either orally or mentally as (46) reads. To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an (47) , which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate (48) the reader finds comfortable, in order to stretch him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, (49) word-by-word reading, regression and sub vocalization, practically impossible.

He is delighted that how he can (55) a lot more reading material in a short period of time.43（）。AreuseBrereadCrewriteDrecite3.For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation.
