If you want to help children develop language and speech skills, UCLA researchers say, listening to what they have to say is just as important as talking to them.

The effect of a conversation between a child and an adult is about six times as great as the effect of adult speech input(输入)alone, the researchers found. “Adults speaking to children helps language develop, but what matters much more is the interaction, ”said the study’s lead author, Frederick Zimmerman, an associate professor in the School of Public Health at the University of California, Los Angeles. The researchers also found that TV viewing didn’t have much of an effect—positively or negatively—as long as it wasn’t displacing conversations between an adult and a child.

The UCLA study included 275 families with children between 2 months and 48 months old. They represented a variety of incomes and education. The researchers found that, in an average day, children heard about 13, 000 spoken words from adults and participated in about 400 adult-child conversations a day.

Assessed separately, factors positively associated with language development included each additional 100 conversations a day and each 1, 000 words increase in the number of words spoken by adults and heard by children. When looked at alone, TV was negatively associated with language development. But, when these three factors were analyzed together, the only one that stood out was conversation between adults and children.

“The more a child speaks and interacts with an adult, the better idea a parent has about where the child is”, Zimmerman said. “Although it’s mostly done unconsciously, parents will provide feedback and correct mistakes. They’ll also tailor their speech to the child. Parents can give the children words by talking to them about what they’re doing, such as, ‘I’m putting on your pajamas now’. But give your child the opportunity to talk, hopefully without the rest of the noise in the environment, ”she added. “If parents can carve out some conversation time—maybe at bath time or at dinner time—that’s a wonderful thing. ”

1. The researchers also found that TV viewing    .

A. could have a positive effect on a child’s language development

B. had a little effect on a child’s language development

C. affected a child’s language development more negatively than positively

D. affected a child’s language development both negatively and positively

2.Frederick Zimmerman would probably agree that    .

A. parents should let their children talk most of the time

B. children should watch TV programs selectively

C. the conversation between parents and children should be two-way

D. it’s no good for parents to correct their children’s mistakes when they are speaking

3. We can conclude from the last paragraph that    .

A. parents should let a child repeat what he or she says

B. bath time or dinner time is the best chance for parents to talk to a child

C. parent-child conversation can be carried out at any proper time

D. parents should leave a child talking alone

4. What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Talk with kids, not at them

B. Let your children voice their own opinions

C. How to develop a child’s language ability

D. The importance of early child language development

5.The underlined word “tailor” in the last paragraph can be best replaced by    .

The greatest recent social changes have been in the lives of women. During the twentieth century there has been a remarkable shortening of the proportion of a woman's life spent in caring for the children. A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties ,and would be likely to have seven or eight children, four or five of whom lived till they were five years old. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which health made it unusual for her to get paid work.. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a woman's youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five years and can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has to take care of children, her work is lightened by moder living conditions.

This important change in women's life-patterns has only recently begun to have its full effect on women's economic position. Even a few years ago most girls took a full-time job after they left school.. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school- leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women usually marry older, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born. Many more afterwards return to full-or-part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life, and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money, and running the home, according to the abilities and interests of each of them.

1.At what age did most women marry around the 1890 according to the passage?

A. At about twenty-five B. In their earl fifties

C. At the age of fifteen D. At any age from fifteen to forty-five

2.What happened to an ordinary family in about 1900?

A. The youngest child could live to fifteen.

B. Four of five children died after they were five.

C. Seven or eight children lived to be more than five.

D. Some children died when the were very young.

3.When she was over fifty , a late nineteenth-century mother ______.

A. was usaully expected to die fiarely soon

B. would expect to work until she died

C. would be healthy enough to take up paid jobs

D. was less like to find a job even if she wanted to

4.What do we know from the passage?

A. Husbands and wives share equal responsibilities at home.

B. More and more women are looked down upon by husbands.

C. Today women prefer to get married rather than get jobs.

D. A husband plays a greater part in looking after the children.

Short and shy, Ben Saunders was the last kid in his class picked for any sports team. "Football, tennis, Cricket—anything with a round ball, I was useless." he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the object of jokes in school gym classes in England's rural Devonshire.

It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first the teen went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to cycle along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed, strength and endurance. At age 18, he ran his first marathon.

The following year, he met John Ridgway, who became famous in the 1960s for rowing an open boat across the Atlantic Ocean. Saunders was hired as an instructor at Ridgway's school of Adventure in Scotland, where he learned about the older man's cold-water exploits(成就). Intrigued, Saunders read all he could about Arctic explorers and North Pole expeditions, then decided that this would be his future.

Journeys to the Pole aren't the usual holidays for British country boys, and many people dismissed his dream as fantasy." John Ridgway was one of the few who didn't say, 'You are completely crazy,'" Saunders says.

In 2001, after becoming a skilled skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition toward the North Pole. He suffered frostbite, had a closer encounter(遭遇)with a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit.

Saunders has since become the youngest person to ski alone to the North Pole, and he's skied more of the Arctic by himself than any other Briton. His old playmates would not believe the transformation.

This October, Saunders, 27, heads south to explore from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back, an 1800-mile journey that has never been completed on skis.

1.The turning point in Saunders' life came when _________.

A. he started to play ball games

B. he got a mountain bike at age 15

C. he ran his first marathon at age 18

D. he started to receive Ridgway's training

2.We can learn from the text that Ridgway __________.

A. dismissed Saunders' dream as fantasy

B. built up his body together with Saunders

C. hired Saunders for his cold-water experience

D. won his fame for his voyage across the Atlantic

3.What do we know about Saunders_________?

A. He once worked at a school in Scotland.

B. He followed Ridgway to explore the North Pole.

C. He was the first Briton to ski alone to the North Pole.

D. He was chosen for the school sports team as a kid.

4.The underlined word "Intrigued" in the third paragraph probably means_________.

A. Excited   B. Convinced  

C. Delighted    D. Fascinated

5.It can be inferred tat Saunders' journey to the North Pole __________.

A. was accompanied by his old playmates

B. set a record in the North Pole expedition

C. was supported by other Arctic explorers

D. made him well-known in the 1960s
