    根据下面资料,回答
    Reading aloud and silent reading are two different types of reading practice. Each has a function in the teaching of reading and should not be 16 by the other. However, we need to be aware when we should use them. When we 17 teaching reading or developing reading skills, we are mostly referring to silent reading. To develop 18 readers in a foreign language, silent reading activities must be given enough 19 and time in class with the proper guidance from the 20 . Reading aloud also has its particular 21 for our students who are learning English as a foreign language. 22 can help them acquire good pronunciation and intonation, 23 them with new words and the stress patterns of English, help 24 their eontidenee in speaking the language. Therefore, opportunities should be 25 for students to read aloud only after they have comprehended the text 26 before comprehension can be very 27 and it can easily destroy their self-confidence. With 28 reading, it sets up a poor reading model for other students as well. It is 29 that we first help students learn the text through 30 reading activities and then with comprehension we give our students practice by using an audio tape to 31 a good model for practicing reading aloud. With adequate 32 , we may ask the students to read aloud to the whole class to 33 their motivation and confidence. By asking the students to read aloud, it is also a good chance for the teacher to get 34 on the students′ comprehension as we can notice 35 there are wrong pauses or mispronounced words which indicate possible difficulties or misunderstanding of the text.

    第一篇

    Why Don ' t Babies Talk Like Adults?

    Over the past half-century,scientists have settled on two reasonable theories related to babytalk.One
    states that a young child's brain needs time to master language,in the same way that it does to master other
    abilities such as physical movement. The second theory states that a child's vocabulary level is the key fac-
    tor. According to this theory,some key steps have to occur in a logical sequence before sentence formation
    occurs.Children's mathematical knowledge develops in the same way.
    In 2007,researchers at Harvard University,who were studying the two theories,found a clever way to
    test them.More than 20,000 internationally adopted children enter the U.S.each year. Many of them no lon-
    ger hear their birth language after they arrive,and they must learn English more or less the same way infants
    do一that is,by listening and by trial and error. International adoptees don't take classes or use a dictionary
    when they are learning their new tongue and most of them don't have a well-developed first language.All of
    these factors make them an ideal population in which to test these competing hypotheses about how language
    is learned.
    Neuroscientists Jesse Snedeker,Joy Geren and Carissa Shafto studied the language development of 27
    children adopted from China between the ages of two and five years.These children began learning English
    at an older age than US natives and had more mature brains with which to tackle the task.Even so,just as
    with American-born infants,their first English sentences consisted of single words and were largely bereft(缺
    乏的)of function words , word endings and verbs. The adoptees then went through the same stages as typical
    American-born children,though at a faster clip.The adoptees and native children started combining words in
    sentences when their vocabulary reached the same sizes,further suggesting that what matters is not how old
    you are or how mature your brain is,but the number of words you know.
    This finding一that having more mature brains did not help the adoptees avoid the toddler-talk stage一
    suggests that babies speak in babytalk not because they have baby brains,but because they have only just
    started learning and need time to gain enough vocabulary to be able to expand their conversations.Before
    long,the one-word stage will give way to the two-word stage and so on. Learning how to chat like an adult is
    a gradual process.
    But this potential answer also raises an even older and more difficult question.Adult immigrants who
    learn a second language rarely achieve the same proficiency in a foreign language as the average child raised
    as a native speaker. Researchers have long suspected there is a"critical period"for language development,
    after which it cannot proceed with full success to fluency.Yet we still do not understand this critical period or
    know why it ends.

    What is the writer's main purpose in Paragraph 2?
    A:To reject the view that adopted children need two languages.
    B:To argue that culture affects the way children learn a language.
    C:To give reasons why adopted children were used in the study.
    D:To justify a particular approach to language learning.

    答案:D
    解析:
    本题是推理判断题。第二段意思是:通过把被收养的国际儿童作为实验对象,采取不 同的培训方法来解释儿童语言习得的特殊途径。故选D。
    由文章第三段第二句话可知这些儿童开始学习英语时要比美国本土学说话的孩子年龄大。
    由文章第三段后半部分可知,与美国本土唯呀学语的儿童相比,被收养的中国儿童的 语言发展在其最初开口所说的单词,学习语言的方法和开始造句的阶段都相同。由该段倒数 第二句话“The adoptees then went through the same stages as typical American-born children, though at a faster clip.”该句中at a faster clip意思是“以更快的速度”。由此可知他们学习语言 的速度比本土的孩子快。故选A。
    文章第四段讲述了哈佛大学研究人员的实验结果表明儿童说话时只能使用儿童话语 是因为他们需要时间来获得更多的词汇从而扩展对话形式。而从儿童话语过渡到成人话语形 式是一个渐进的过程。从最后两句话“Before long , the one-word stage will give way to the two-word stage and so on.Learning how to chat like an adult is a gradual process.”可以看出选C。
    由文章最后一段倒数第二句话“Researchers have long suspected there is a ' critical period ' for language development , after which it cannot proceed with full success to fluency.”可知 研究者猜想在人的语言发展过程中有一“关键期”,过了这一“关键期”,人的语言发展就不可 能达到流利的程度。故选C。

    The number of speakers of English in Shakespeare’s time is estimated (估计) to have been about five million. Today it is estimated that some 260 million people speak it as a native language, mainly in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Ireland, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. In addition to the standard varieties of English found in these areas, there are a great many regional and social varieties of the language as well as various levels of usage that are employed both in its spoken and written forms.
    In fact, it is impossible to estimate the number of people in the world who have acquired an adequate (足够的) working knowledge of English in addition to their own languages. The purpose for English learning and the situations in which such learning takes place are so varied that it is difficult to explain and still more difficult to judge what forms an adequate working knowledge for each situation.
    The main reason for the widespread demand for English is its present-day importance as a world language. Besides serving the indefinite needs of its native speakers, English is a language in which some of important works in science, technology, and other fields are being produced, and not always by native speakers. It is widely used for such purposes as meteorological and airport communications, international conferences, and the spread of information over the radio and television networks of many nations. It is a language of wider communication for a number of developing countries, especially former British colonies. Many of these countries have multilingual populations and need a language for internal communication in such matters as government, commerce, industry, law and education as well as for international communication and for entrance to the scientific and technological developments in the West.What type of developing countries would be most likely to use English

    • A、Those geographically close to the United States.
