    Play
    Play is the principal business of childhood,and in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being. From earliest infancy,every child needs opportunity and the right materials for play,and the main tools of play are toys.Their main func- tion is to suggest,encourage and assist play.To succeed in this they must he good toys,which children will play with often,and will come back to again and again.Therefore it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages of a child's development.
    In recent years research on infant development has shown that the standard a child is likely to reach,within the range of his inherited abilities,is largely determined in the first three years of his life .So a baby's ability to profit from the right play materials should not be underestimated.A baby,who is encouraged and stimulated,talked to and shown things and played with,has the best chance of growing up successfully.
    In the next stage,from three to five years old,curiosity knows no bounds.Every type of suitable toy should be made available to the child,for trying out,experimenting and learning,for discovering his own particular ability. Bricks and jigsaws(七巧板)and construction toys ; painting,scribbling(涂鸦)and making things;sand and water play;toys for imaginative and pretending play;the first social games for learning to play and get on with others.
    By the third stage of play development—from five to seven or eight years—the child is at school .But for a few more years play is still the best way of learning,at home or at school.It is easier to see which type of toys the child most enjoys.
    Until the age of seven or eight,play and work mean much the same to a child.But once reading has been mastered,then books and schools become the main source of learning.Toys are still interesting and valuable,they lead on to new hobbies,but、their significance has changed—to a child of nine or ten years,toys and games mean,as to adults,relaxation and fun.

    According to the passage,the abilities a child has inherited from his parents________.
    A: determine his character
    B: will not change after the age of three
    C: partly determine the standard he is likely to reach
    D: to a large extent determine the choice of toys

    答案:C
    解析:
    这句话“…as a child grows up ,he should be given different toys”和第一段的最后一句话“…it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages of a child's development”(给处于不同生长期的孩子选择合适的玩具很重要)是一样的意思。


    本题的依据是第二段的第一句话,这句话中有一个介词短语:within the range of his inherited abilities,如果先抛开这个短语,句子的其余部分意为:近年对儿童成长的研究表明,孩子出生的头3年在很大程度上决定了他今后将达到的水平。但这个结论的限定是“在他遗传得到的能力范围之内”(within the range of his inherited abilities),也就是说孩子从父母那里遗传来的能力部分地决定了他可能达到的水平。


    答案的依据是第二段的最后一句话,选项C讲到的3点:given toys, talked to and played with在这句话里都可以找到:talked to and shown things and played with,只是次序稍有不同。


    第三段的第一句话告诉我们,孩子3~5岁时是好奇心最强的时候,所以B : around four,四岁前后,是正确答案。


    这道题的答案取决于对整篇文章的理解和把握,本文的题目是Play,第一段的第一句话就把文章的中心点出来了:…in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being.第二、第三、第四段分别讲了在1~3岁、3 ~5 岁、5~7/8岁这三个阶段玩耍对孩子成长的重要作用。

    录音中提到如果政府允许国外投资,银行就可以发放更多的贷款给大小公司。但录音中接下来提到这样做的消极面是银行可能会变得过于急切,发放贷款的收益甚至无法抵消随之而来的风险,这样一来就会造成破产,由此可知在说话者看来对于健康的经济来说银行应该避免风险投资。
    【录音原文】
    Financial systems can be liberalized a lot without letting in hot money. If a government opens up to investment from abroad—allowing foreign banks to buy local institutions, say, or allowing domestic banks to raise money on international capital markets—local banks can lend more to businesses large and small. This matters, because bank credit is often the only source of finance for many firms. The downside is that banks may become over-eager and make loans on which the returns do not justify the risks. That can produce horrible busts.

    [C]在整体上艺术品市场在很多方面下滑了。
    [D]一些艺术品交易者在等待更好时机的到来。
    答案解析:[B]事实细节题。文章第二段第一句提到了“momentum”,意为“势头”,即“世界艺术品市场已经有一段时间失去了它的发展势头”。本段最后一句提到“但是这个市场产生的利益远远超出它本身的规模,因为它可以把巨大的财富、膨胀的自我、贪婪、激情和争议以某种方式结合在一起,其他行业很少能与之媲美。”在这里,作者比较的是艺术品市场和其他行业在“把财富、自我、贪婪、激情和争议结合在一起”的方式方面,而不是发展的势头,[B]的论述张冠李戴,是错误的,故为答案。由文章第三段第三句可知[A]是正确的,[C]是全文的主题,有很多数据可以证明,而[D]在全文最后一段的最后一句可以找到明确表述,这三项都是正确的,故均排除。

    Play
    Play is the principal business of childhood,and in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being. From earliest infancy,every child needs opportunity and the right materials for play,and the main tools of play are toys.Their main func- tion is to suggest,encourage and assist play.To succeed in this they must he good toys,which children will play with often,and will come back to again and again.Therefore it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages of a child's development.
    In recent years research on infant development has shown that the standard a child is likely to reach,within the range of his inherited abilities,is largely determined in the first three years of his life .So a baby's ability to profit from the right play materials should not be underestimated.A baby,who is encouraged and stimulated,talked to and shown things and played with,has the best chance of growing up successfully.
    In the next stage,from three to five years old,curiosity knows no bounds.Every type of suitable toy should be made available to the child,for trying out,experimenting and learning,for discovering his own particular ability. Bricks and jigsaws(七巧板)and construction toys ; painting,scribbling(涂鸦)and making things;sand and water play;toys for imaginative and pretending play;the first social games for learning to play and get on with others.
    By the third stage of play development—from five to seven or eight years—the child is at school .But for a few more years play is still the best way of learning,at home or at school.It is easier to see which type of toys the child most enjoys.
    Until the age of seven or eight,play and work mean much the same to a child.But once reading has been mastered,then books and schools become the main source of learning.Toys are still interesting and valuable,they lead on to new hobbies,but、their significance has changed—to a child of nine or ten years,toys and games mean,as to adults,relaxation and fun.

    Who have the best chance of growing up successfully?
    A: Those who tend to overeat.
    B:.Those who are given a lot of toys.
    C: Those who are given toys,talked to and played with.
    D: Those who can share their toys with their playmates.

    答案:C
    解析:
    这句话“…as a child grows up ,he should be given different toys”和第一段的最后一句话“…it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages of a child's development”(给处于不同生长期的孩子选择合适的玩具很重要)是一样的意思。


    本题的依据是第二段的第一句话,这句话中有一个介词短语:within the range of his inherited abilities,如果先抛开这个短语,句子的其余部分意为:近年对儿童成长的研究表明,孩子出生的头3年在很大程度上决定了他今后将达到的水平。但这个结论的限定是“在他遗传得到的能力范围之内”(within the range of his inherited abilities),也就是说孩子从父母那里遗传来的能力部分地决定了他可能达到的水平。


    答案的依据是第二段的最后一句话,选项C讲到的3点:given toys, talked to and played with在这句话里都可以找到:talked to and shown things and played with,只是次序稍有不同。


    第三段的第一句话告诉我们,孩子3~5岁时是好奇心最强的时候,所以B : around four,四岁前后,是正确答案。


    这道题的答案取决于对整篇文章的理解和把握,本文的题目是Play,第一段的第一句话就把文章的中心点出来了:…in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being.第二、第三、第四段分别讲了在1~3岁、3 ~5 岁、5~7/8岁这三个阶段玩耍对孩子成长的重要作用。
