11、. I started wondering 19 I refused to run the light. I was not afraid of 20 (catch) by the police, because there was obviously no policeman anywhere around and 21 certainly would have been no danger in going through it. Much later that night, the 22 question of why Id stopped for that light came bac

12、k to me. I think I stopped because its part of a contract we all have with each other.

Childre

17、n are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and later starters are often long listeners. Most children will “obey spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word “obey is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted coope

18、ration usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises. Any attempt to study the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy m

19、aking 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, to

20、o, 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 self-imitation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

21、one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech. It is a problem we need to get out. 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 .T

22、hus 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 begu

23、n 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.36. Before children start speaking_.A. they need equal amount of listening B. they need different amounts of listeningC. they are all eager to cooperate w

24、ith the adults by obeying spoken instructionsD. they cant understand and obey the adults oral instructions37.

25、 take a long time in learning to listen properly38. A babys first noises are _.A. an expression of his moods and feelings B. an early form of languageC. a sign that he means to tell you something D. an imitation of the speech of adults39. The problem of deciding at what point a babys imitations can

26、be considered as speech_.A. is important because words have different meanings for different peopleB. is one that should be properly understood because the meaning of words changes with ageC. is not especially important because the changeover takes place gradually D. is one that should be completely

27、 ignored because childrens use of words is often meaningless 40. The author implies_.A. parents can never hope to teach their children new soundsB. even after they have learnt to speak, children still enjoy imitating C. children no longer imitate people after they begin to speakD. children who are g

28、ood at imitating learn new words more quickly BAs the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and

29、body. Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor pe

30、rformance and ill health.The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress, and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities, others lose heart at the first sign of unusual difficulties. When exposed

31、to stress, in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make choice between flight or fight and in more primitive days the choices made the difference between life or death. The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme, but however little the stress, it involves th

32、e same response. It is when such a reaction lasts long, through continued exposure to stress, that health becomes endangered. Since we cant remove stress from our lives (it would be unwise to do so even if we could), we need to find ways to deal with it.41. People are finding less and less time for

33、relaxing themselves because _.A. they regard working as their greatest enjoymentB. they believe that work is superior to relaxationC. they are traveling fast all the timeD. they are becoming busier with their work than ever before42.

37、nd the worldit affects where we choose to love, what we wear, our moods, and perhaps even our national characteristics. Studies have shown the changeable weather can make it difficult to concentrate, cloudy skies slow sown reaction, and high humidity with hot, dry winds makes many people bad-tempere

38、d.If you live in a place like Britain, where the weather seems to change daily if not hourly, you could be forgiven for thinking that the weather is random. In fact, the weather is controlled by systems which move around areas of the globe. In the UK the weather depends on depressions低气压, often call

39、ed lows, and anticyclones高气压, also known as highs. These systems start in the Atlantic Ocean, and make their way across the British Isles from the west to the east. Highs bring sunny weather, while lows bring rain and wind. In modern times, human activities seem to be altering weather patterns. Gase

40、s produced by heavy industry change the temperature of the Earths surface, and affect cloud formation. Some researchers say that factories in Europe and North America may have been one of the causes of the droughts in Africa in the 1980s.The human race has always tried to guess the weather, especial

41、ly in areas of the world where there are frequent changes. Traditional rhymes point to early attempts to identify weather patterns, popular poems include:Red sky at night, shepherds delight; red sky in the morning, shepherds warning.Flies will swarm before a storm.Rain before 7, clear by 11.While fo

42、lk wisdom can still provide a guide to help forecast weather, todays methods of prediction increasingly rely on technology.

A good book may absorb our atten

46、tion so completely that for the time being we forget our surroundings and even our identity. Reading good books is one of the greatest pleasures in life. It increases our contentment when we are cheerful, and lessens our troubles when we are sad. Whatever may be our main purpose in reading, our contact with good books should never fail to give us enjoyment and satisfaction.With a good book in our hands we need never be lonely.
