24、 was going to the zoo. I have recently heard that there are debates as to whether elephants should - 6 -live in zoos or should they wander around free. My position is that elephants should live in zoos for people to see.Many experts say that elephants have a good life living in zoos. There are 78 zo

25、os that exhibit elephants. Most zoos are taking the necessary steps to make living conditions better for the elephants. They are doing things such as replacing hard floors with sand or dirt. This makes it easier for them to wander around. Zoos are also expanding their elephant house to give the larg

26、e animals more room to go around. Zoos also protect endangered species. According to the World Wildlife Fund, in 2014 the total population of African elephants was around 700,000, and the Asian elephant population was around 32,000.The Asian elephants are on a path to dying out. Without zoos, they a

27、ll are likely to disappear within our lifetime. The National Zoo plans to spend millions of dollars on a new Asian elephant habitat. That way, they can start their own group if the Asian elephants are gone. There are people who want zoos to empty all of their elephant displays. If they decide to do

28、so, it would take the chance to see elephants up close away from people. That could change the publics favorable opinion of elephants. National Zoo director John Berry says that allowing visitors to experience the elephants up close encourages people to care about endangered species. During one of m

29、y visits to the zoo, it was a very hot day. I was sweating a lot. Big Ben, the largest elephant on display, walked up to me and gently squirted (喷) my face with water from his trunk. Everyone was amazed at what he did. That was a very nice thing for Big Ben to do. I am sure that elephants are the ni

30、cest animals on earth. I wish all zoos would keep their elephant displays open to the public. I want all my friends to be able to experience what I did with Big Ben.

D. Doubtful. D DNewborns begin to develop language skills long before they begin speaking. And, compared

33、to adults, they develop these skills more quickly. People have a hard time learning new languages as they grow older, but babies have the ability to learn any language easily.For a long time, scientists have tried to explain how such young children can learn the complicated grammatical rules and sou

34、nds of a language. Now, researchers are getting a better idea of whats happening in the brains of the tiniest language learners. This new information might help kids with learning problems as well as adults who want to learn new languages. It might even help scientists who are trying to design compu

35、ters that can communicate like people do.Most babies go “ma ma” by 6 months of age, and most children speak in full sentences by age 3. For many years, scientists have wondered how the brains of young children figure out how to communicate using language. With help from new technologies, scientists

36、are now finding that babies begin life with the ability - 8 -to learn any language. They get into contact(接触) with other people, listen to what they say and watch their movements very closely. That is why they quickly master the languages they hear most often.Studies show that, up to about 6 months

37、of age, babies can recognize all the sounds that make up all the languages in the world. Starting at around 6 months old a babys brain focuses on(集中于) the most common sounds it hears. Then, children begin responding only to the sounds of the language they hear the most.In a similar way older babies

38、start recognizing the patterns that make up the rules of their native language. For example, English children who are about 18 months old start to figure out that words ending in “-ing” or “-ed” are usually verbs, and that verbs are action words.42.
