recordings of speech in hundreds oflanguages coming from the tree.Most words sound foreign to the listeners.The different voices also speak at thesame time.The resultingclamoris similar to that made in a crowded theater before a show begins.Rafael Lozano-Hemmer completed the piece last year.On his website,the artist says that Speaking Willow“reminds us that language is what defines our specific communities and connects our many cultures.”Lozano-Hemmer made the piece specially for the museum.It is the first of many immersive(身临其境的)experiences for visitors at Planet Word,a museum all aboutwords and language.The exhibits playfully explore the lager and complex subject of language.In one room,a video plays,showing babies saying their first words.Another room,called“Where Do WordsCome From”,teaches the history of some common English words.The space includes a 22-foot-tali“Wall ofWords”,where visitors speak into devices and learn about the roots of the English language.Another room invites listeners to speak and learn about different languages.Native speakers of 28 languagesand two sign languages teach people sayings in those languages.They also explain how language shapes theirunderstanding of the world and how words cannot be separated from culture.Other rooms explore the different ways language is used from humor and song writing to public speakingand advertising.Visitors can sing karaoke while learning about song writing,record a famous speech,play ajoke-telling game,and teach a computer how to make cartoons.Almost every exhibit is interactive and most askvisitors to speak aloud.One exhibit room is all about books.It is designed to look like an old,rich library.Books line the shelves.When a book is placed on the table,a recorded reading begins

find the methods of using languages?A.3.B.4.C.6.D.7.DFor most thinkers since the Greek philosophers,it was self-evident that there is something called humannature,something that constitutes the essence of man.There were various views about what constitutes it,butthere was agreement that such an essence existsthat is to say,that there is something by virtue of which man isman.Thus man was defined as a rational(理性的)being,as a social animal,an animal that can make tools,or asymbol-making animal.More recently,this traditional view has begun to be questioned.One reason for this change was theincreasing emphasis given to the historical approach to man.An examination of the history of humanity suggestedthat man in our time is so different from man in previous times that it seemed unrealistic to assume that men inevery age have had in common something that can be called“human nature.”The historical approach wasstrengthened,particularly in the United States,by studies in the field of cultural anthropology(人类学).The studyof primitive peoples has discovered such a diversity of customs,values,feelings,and thoughts that manyanthropologists arrived at the concept that man is born as a blank sheet of paper on which each culture writes itstext.Another factor contributing to the tendency to deny the assumption of a fixed human nature was that theconcept has so often been abused as a shield(盾牌)behind which the most inhuman acts are committed.In thename of human nature,for example,Aristotle and most thinkers up to the eighteenth century defended slavery.Or in order to prove the rationality and necessity of the capitalist form of society,scholars have tried to make acase for acquisitiveness,competitiveness,and selfishness as natural human characters.Popularly,one referscynically（愤世嫉俗地）to“human nature”in accepting the inevitability of such undesirable human behavior asgreed,murder,cheating and lying.Another reason for disbelief about the concept of human nature probably lies in the influence of evolutionarythinking.Once man came to be seen as developing in the process of evolution,the idea of a substance which iscontained in his essence seemed untenable.Yet I believe it is precisely from an evolutionary standpoint that wecan expect new insight into the problem of the nature of man.12.Most philosophers believed that human nature _.A.is the quality distinguishing man from other animalsB.consists of competitiveness and selfishnessC.is something partly innate and partly acquiredD.consists of rationality and undesirable behavior13.The traditional view of“human nature”was strongly challenged by _.A.the emergence of the evolutionary theoryB.the historical approach to manC.new insight into human behaviorD.the philosophical analysis of slavery14.According to the passage,anthropologists believe that human beings _.A.have some characters in commonB.are born with diverse culturesC.are born without a fixed natureD.change their characters as they grow up15.The author mentioned Aristotle,a great ancient thinker,in order to _.A.emphasize that he contributed a lot to defining the concept of“human nature”B.show that the concept of“human nature”was used to justify social evilsC.prove that he had a profound influence on the concept of“human nature”D.support the idea that some human characters are inherited.第二节（共第二节（共 5 5
