When humans first 1 , they were like newborn children, unable to use this 2 tool. Yet once language developed, the possibilities for humankinds future 3 and cultural growth increased. Many linguists believe that evolution is 4 for our ability to produce and use language. They 5 that our highly evolved brain provides us with an innate language ability not found in lower 6 . Proponents of this innateness theory say that our 7 for language is inborn, but that language itself develops gradually, as a function of the growth of the brain during childhood. Therefore there are critical 8 times for language development. Current 9 of innateness theory are mixed, however, evidence supporting the existence of some innate abilities is undeniable. Indeed, more and more schools are discovering that foreign languages are best taught in the lower grades. Young children often can learn several languages by being 10 to them, while adults have a much harder time learning another language once the 11 of their first language have become firmly fixed. Although some aspects of language are undeniably innate, language does not develop automatically in a vacuum. Children who have been 12 from other human beings do not possess language. This demonstrates that 13 with other human beings is necessary for proper language development. Some linguists believe that this is even more basic to human language 14 than any innate capacities. These theorists view language as imitative, learned behavior. 15 , children learn language from their parents by imitating them. Parents gradually shape their childrens language skills by positively reinforcing precise imitations and negatively reinforcing imprecise ones. 1. A. generatedB. evolvedC. bornD. originated2.

A succession of three or four maps presents the continuous picture of weather changes. Weather forecasters are able to determine the speed of air masses and fronts (锋) to determine whether an individual pressure area is deepening or becoming shallow and whether a front is increasing or decreasing in intensity (强度). They are also able to determine whether an air mass is retaining its original characteristics or taking on those of the surface over which it is moving. Thus, a most significant function of the map is to reveal a summary picture of conditions in the atmosphere at a given time. All students of geography should be able to interpret a weather map accurately. Weather maps contain an enormous amount of information about weather conditions existing at the time of observation over a large geographical area. They reveal in a few minutes what otherwise would take hours to describe. The United States Weather Bureau issues information about approaching storms，floods, frosts and all climatic conditions in general. Twice a month it issues a 30-day “outlook” which is a rough guide to weather conditions likely to occur over broad areas of the United States. These 30-day outlooks are based upon an analysis of the upper air levels which often set the stage for development of air masses, fronts and storms. Considerable effort is being exerted today to achieve more accurate weather predictions, with identifying and tracking storms over regions which have but few meteorological(气象学的)stations. Extensive experiments are also in progress for weather modification studies. 26. One characteristic of weather maps NOT mentioned by the author in this passage is_. A. floodsB. frontsC. temperature changesD. frosts27. The thirty-day forecast is determined by examining _. A. daily weather mapsB. upper air levelsC. satellite reportsD. changing fronts28. The observation of weather conditions by satellite is helpful because it _. A. is modernB. uses electronic instrumentsC. makes weather prediction easierD. shows things that would otherwise take hours to describe in a few minutes29. A weather map is a summary because it _. A. sums up a great deal of informationB. appears dailyC. shows changing frontsD. is a science book30. You may possibly read this article in _. A. a magazine B. newspaperC. a novel D. a science book(B)2012揭阳模拟 In Western countries people have been using the installment (分期付款) plan since the first half of the twentieth century. Today, a large number of families in Great Britain buy furniture, household goods and cars by installments. In the U. S. A. , the figure is much higher than that in Great Britain, and people there spend over 10 percent of their income on the installment plan. The price of an article bought on installments is always higher than the price that would be paid by cash. There is a charge for interest. The buyer pays one quarter or one third of the price as a down payment (预付定金) when the goods are delivered to him. He then makes regular payments, weekly or monthly, until the full price is paid up. The legal ownership of the goods remains with the seller until the final payment has been made. Installment buying has advantages and disadvantages. It can help couples with small incomes to furnish their homes and start housekeeping. It increases the demand for goods, and in this way helps business and employment. There is, however, the danger that when business is bad, installment buying may end suddenly, making business much worse. This may result in a great increase in unemployment. If the people on the installment plan lose their jobs, they will probably not be able to make their payments. If great numbers of people are not able to pay their installment debts, there is a possibility that businessmen cannot collect their debts and will therefore lose money. If businessmen lose money or fail to make a satisfactory profit, it becomes more likely to have a depression (萧条). This is why, in some countries, the government controls the installment plan by fixing the amount of the down payment and installments to discourage people from buying more than they can pay for on the installment plan. 31. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the installment plan? A. A lot of British families use the installment plan. B. More than 10 percent of American families buy things on installments. C. Americans depend more on installment than British people do. D. Americans spend one tenth of their income on installment buying. 32. Goods bought on installments are more expensive than goods bought by cash because _. A. the buyer has to pay extra money as interestB. the delivery of the goods charges extra moneyC. the buyer has to pay a down paymentD. the service offered by installment plan charged extra money33. What will happen to a buyer if he fails to make the full payment for an item bought on installments? A. He might lose his job. B. He will stop owning the item he has bought. C. He will have to sell what he has bought. D. He will go into debt. 34. The advantage of installment buying might include all the following EXCEPT that _. A. purchasing power is strengthenedB. employment might be increasedC. people develop a good habit of saving moneyD. young couples are able to furnish their homes35. In some countries, the governments control the installment plan to _. A. increase employmentB. avoid depressionsC. ensure that businesses make good profitsD. ensure that people can pay for what they buy(C) Inventor, physicist, surveyor, astronomer, biologist, artist. . . Robert Hooke was all these and more. Some say he was the greatest experimental scientist of the seventeenth century. Once he worked with renowned men of science like Christian Huygens, Antony van Leeuwenhoek, Robert Boyle, Isaac Newton and the great architect, Christopher Wren. Hookes early education began at home, under the guidance of his father. He entered Westminster School at the age of thirteen, and from there he went to Oxford, where he came in contact with some of the best scientists in England. Hooke impressed them with his skill at designing experiments and devising instruments. In 1662, at the age of twenty-eight, he was named Curator of Experiments of the newly-formed Royal Society of London. Hooke accepted the job, even though he knew that it had no money to pay him! Watching living things through the microscope was one of his favorite occupations. He devised a compound microscope for this purpose. One day while observing a cork(软木) under a microscope, he saw honeycomb-like structures. They were cellsthe smallest units of life. In fact, it was Hooke who coined the term “cell” as the box-like cells of the cork reminded him of the cells of a monastery(修道院). Perhaps because of his varied interests, Hooke often left experiments unfinished. Others took up where he left off and then claimed sole(独占的)credit. This sometimes led to quarrels with colleagues. One work that he finished was his book MICROGRAPHIA, a volume that reveals the immense potential of the microscope. The book also includes, among other things, ideas on gravity and light which may have helped scientists like Newton while they were developing their own theories on these phenomena. Hooke made valuable contributions to astronomy too. A crater(坑) on the moon is named after him in appreciation of his services to this branch of science. 36. Robert Hooke probably went to school in _. A. 1647B. 1634C. 1662D. 166437. From the first paragraph, we can know that Robert Hooke _. A. was famous because he worked with many scientistsB. liked making friends with the famous peopleC. received a lot from other scientistsD. made contributions to many different fields 38. Robert Hooke made himself known to some of the best scientists in England by _. A. learning by himself with his fathers helpB. introducing himself to themC. designing experiments and devising instrumentsD. refusing any reward from Royal Society of London39. Robert Hooke couldnt get along well with his colleagues because _. A. he couldnt finish his work on time sometimesB. he had all kinds of interests in his daily lifeC. he was too proud to look up to themD. the other scientists took the fruits of his experiments40. Which of the following about the book MICROGRAPHIA is TRUE? A. It has been used in many fields. B. Its ideas on gravity and light might have been helpful for Newton. C. Newton realized the importance of it. D. Hooke thought highly of Newtons scientific theory in it. (D) As you climb into the hill country, the roads get dustier and rougher, and fewer cars can be seen. Phonxay is one of the poorest districts of Laos, and many of its villages are only accessible by footpath. Our destination this hot morning is a concrete water tank that can be found just off the road. A UK organization helped to build it six years ago, and in the nearby village of Thapho, where clean drinking water is scarce, it has made a big difference. The tank feeds six taps which in turn give water to over 800 peopleit has improved things for almost every family, from schoolchildren to grannies. But lately, we were told, the clean water supply has come under pressure from new arrivals, people who have come down from the hill areas, and there are concerns that there will not be enough clean water to go round. There are also serious worries about resources in Laos. The Chinese are building a 400km railway link, which could transform the landlocked country. About 150,000 Chinese workers will be involved. What will this do to local clean water supplies? How will the workers be fed? The vast majority of Laotians live on farms. But with foreign investors wanting to buy up land, local people will have to be moved to make room for them. Heavily dependent on both foreign aid and foreign investment,Laos still falls well behind its neighbours, although its economy has grown at about 6% a year in the last decade. Its biggest economic problem is the lack of locally trained skilled workforce. But there are reasons to be hopeful for the future. Laos is beautiful, and foreign tourism continues to grow: fortunately so far the fast-food chains and coffee bars common elsewhere are nowhere to be seen. Although all local media are government-run, the Internet is not controlled and the BBC and CNN are available to those with satellite dishes. The government has also achieved impressi
