    　　Students who say they never or hardly use dictionaries often speak English well but usually write poorly, because they make many mistakes．The students who use dictionaries most do not learn especially well either．The ones who look up every new word do not read fast, therefore they do not have time to read much．Those who use small, bilingual(使用两种语言的)dictionaries have the worst problems．Their dictionaries often give only one or two words as a translation of English．But one English word often has many translations in a foreign language and one foreign word has many translations in English．

    　　The most successful students are those who use large college edition dictionaries with about 100,000 words but who do not use them too often．When they are reading, these students first try to get the general idea and understand new words from the context(上下文)．Then they reread and use the dictionary to look up only key words that they still do not understand．They use dictionaries more for writing．If they are not sure how to spell a word, or can't divide it into syllables, they use a dictionary．Also, if they think a noun might have an unusual plural form or a verb might have an unusual past form, they check these in a dictionary．

    [　　]

    A．

    choose a good dictionary, and you'll succeed in learning English

    B．

    dictionaries are not very necessary to the students who learn English

    　　Babies can seem pretty helpless．They can’t talk or use a spoon properly．They can’t go to the bathroom by themselves．

    　　A long time ago, you were a baby yourself．But you’ve made the transition from a crying infant(婴儿)to an independent kid．As you’ve grown, your brain has undergone major changes．As a result, you know the difference between a cow and a car, an orange and a tennis ball．You can read, spell, and do math．

    　　For years, scientists have been intrigued(激起兴趣)by how a baby’s brain develops．They’ve been trying to figure out how and when babies become learning machines and begin to make sense of the world．

    　　Some researchers suggest that babies start off early．“The ‘smart baby’ camp believes that babies learn quickly,” says David Rakison, a psychologist at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh．“They do math－(simple)addition and subtraction－within the first 6 months．”

    　　Other researchers argue that babies take their time, slowly learning what they need to know．

    　　Scientists who specialize in brain development do agree on one thing：the ways in which babies sort(给…分类)objects into groups is a key sign of brain development．

    　　And after years of studying how babies sort toys and other objects, Rakison has concluded that babies are “smart” in some ways and “dumb” in others．Babies are particularly good, he says, at learning things that are essential for survival, such as recognizing faces or dangerous animals．

    (1)

    We grow to know the differences between many things in the world mainly because __________．

    [　　]

    A．

    we see a lot of different things

    B．

    we are taught by our parents

    C．

    we learn them ourselves

    D．

    our brain develops

    (2)

    What does the underlined word “transition” mean?

    [　　]

    A．

    Development．

    B．

    Improvement．

    C．

    Change．

    D．

    Growing．

    (3)

    Scientists believe that the way __________ is a key sign of brain development．

    [　　]

    A．

    babies talk

    B．

    babies sort objects into groups

    C．

    babies walk

    D．

    babies recognize their parents

    (4)

    Which is the best title for the passage?

    [　　]

    A．

    What babies learn．

    B．

    What babies like．

    C．

    How babies grow．

    D．

    Babies grow as their brains develop．
