Many linguists believe that evolution is 4 for our ability to produce and use language.They 5 that our highly evolved brain provides us 6 an innate language ability not found in lower 7 . Proponents of this innateness theory say that our 8 for language is inborn, but that language itself develops gradually, 9 a function of the growth of the brain during childhood.Therefore there are critical 10 times for language development.
Current 11 of innateness theory are mixed, however, evidence supporting the existence of some innate abilities is undeniable. 12 , more and more schools are discovering that foreign languages are best taught in 13 grades.Young children often can learn several languages by being 14 to them, while adults have a much harder time learning another language once the 15 of their first language have become firmly fixed.
16 some aspects of language are undeniably innate, language does not develop automatically in a vacuum.Children who have been 17 from other human beings do not possess language.This demonstrates that 18 with other human beings isnecessary for proper language development.Some linguists believe that this is even more basic to human language 19 than any innate capacities.These theorists view language as imitative, learned behavior. 20 , children learn language from their parents by imitating them.Parents gradually shape their child's lang
uage skills by positively reinforcing precise imitations and negatively reinforcing imprecise ones.

9.【答案】A

【解析】此句意为：语言的发展有一个关键期，人体的成长是生物变化的过程。biological生物的；ideological思想上的；social社会的；psychological心理的。

17.【答案】D
【解析】此句意为：与人隔绝的儿童不能掌握好一门语言。isolated孤立的，与人隔绝的；distinguished区别的，杰出的；different不同的；protected受到保护的。
18.【答案】D
【解析】此句总结前几句，意为：必须通过与他人交往，语言才能够发展。interaction相互作用；exposition暴露；comparison比较；contrast对比。
19.【答案】A
【解析】根据分析，本句中的“this”和“even more basic”分别指代上句的“interaction with other human beings”和“necessary”，此处所填词对应上文中的language development。也就是说，language acquisition语言习得。appreciation欣赏,感激；requirement要求；alternative转移，转变，转换。
20.【答案】C
【解析】本句功能是以另一种方式解释前文中的“imitative, learned behavior.(模仿性的后天行为)”。In other words换言之，换句话说；As a result结果是；After all毕竟；Above all首先。
For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation.To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words.In 1 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 2 can mean the difference between success and failure.Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 3 readers. Most of us develop poor reading 4 at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency 5 in the actual stuff of language itself-words.Taken individually, words have 6 meaning until they are strung together into phrased, sentences and paragraphs. 7 , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words.He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to 8 words or passages.Regression, the tendency to look back over 9 you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading.Another habit which 10 down the speed of reading is vocalization—sounding each word either orally or mentally as 11 reads.
To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an 12 , which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed.The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 13 the reader finds comfortable, in order to“stretch”him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, 14 word-by-word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first 15 is sacrificed for speed.But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, 16 your comprehension will improve. Many people have found 17 reading skill drastically improved after some training. 18 Charlce Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute 19 the training,now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute.He is delighted that how he can 20 a lot more reading material in a short period of time.

Cloze Test 4答案
1.【答案】D

2.【答案】A
【解析】本句意为“快速阅读与理解的能力，是关系到成败的关键所在”只有quickly与原意吻合。easily(容易地)；roughly (粗略地)； decidedly(果断地)均与原文内容不符。
3.【答案】C
【解析】英语中，阅读速度快的人称为good reader，反之，就是poor reader。
根据上下文的内容，多数人都属于poor reader，因此选poor(差的)。其它选项不妥。
4.【答案】B
【解析】此处的意思是“大多数人早期养成看书慢的习
惯”因此选habits(习惯)。training (训练，培训)；situations(形势)；custom(风俗习惯)。
5.【答案】A

6.【答案】C

Fortunately幸运地；In fact事实上；Logically合乎逻辑地,均不妥。
Unfortunately(不幸地)合乎句义。

measures不能与down搭配。只有slow与down搭配的意思“放慢”，在此合适。
11.【答案】B
【解析】本段前文已经出现you，在此选one(泛指人们，我们，你)来代替you。some one无此用法。如果用reader，前面应加定冠词。he不能与该段逻辑一致。
12.【答案】A
【解析】此句意为“训练快速阅读所使用的工具必然与提高阅读速度有关”，因此选accelerator (快读器)。actor演员；amplifier放大器；observer观察者。
13.【答案】D
【解析】前面的faster决定了应当选than，构成比较级。
14.【答案】C
【解析】此句意为“快速阅读器迫使你加快阅读速度，使你再也不能逐字阅读，回顾前文内容或者默读”。enabling相当于making possible；leading引导；indicating指出，表明。都不合题意。只有making (使，使得)最合适。
15.【答案】B

A parent's actions 6 affect the self?image that a child forms 7 identification.Children who see mainly positive qualities in their 8 will likely learn to see themselves in a positive way.Children who observe chiefly 9 qualities in their parents will have difficulty 10 positive qualities in themselves.Children may 11 their self?image, however, as they become increasingly 12 by peersgroupsstandards before they reach 13 .

Cloze Test 23
1.【答案】B
【解析】identify与with连用，意为“把……和……联系起来”。
2.【答案】B
【解析】文中的意思是“……代表他父母特点的品质和情感”。Inform“通知”；conceive“想象”；indicative“指示的”；characteristic“特点、特性”。
3.【答案】C
【解析】这里way是指父母的行为方式。gesture手势，expression表情，extent范围，这三项与上行文不符。
4.【答案】A
【解析】这里是说父母的行为方式对孩子的行为影响强烈。behavior行为，words语言，mood心情，reactions反应，均不符合题意。
5.【答案】A
【解析】这里是说父母必须始终如一地表现出想让他们的孩子成为的那种类型的人。human指人类，creatures指生物，adult指成年人。
6.【答案】C
【解析】前面是说父母的言行会强烈地影响孩子的行为，这里是说父母的言行还影响孩子的自我形象，所以用连词also。in turn依次；nevertheless然而；as a result结果。
7.【答案】D
【解析】这里是说孩子通过鉴别身份形成自我形象，因此选择through。
8.【答案】B
【解析】根据下文：children who observe chiefly negative qualities in their parents…，可以看出答案。
9.【答案】A
【解析】由上句positive可以推测出此处要选其反义词negative。
10.【答案】B
【解析】have difficulty(in)doing sth.“做……有困难”，固定用法。
11.【答案】A
【解析】由however可以看出，这句话的意思是对前面“子女的自我形象要受到父母的言行影响”的转折。modify“修改、修饰”；give up“放弃”。copy和continue不符合文义。
12.【答案】B
【解析】influenced“受影响的”；mature“成熟的”；unique“惟一的”；independent“独立的”。句后用by…作介词短语，故此处需要一个过去分词。
13.【答案】C
【解析】这里是说“孤立的事件，甚至是富有戏剧性的事，都不一定会对孩子的行为产生永久的影响”。
14.【答案】D
【解析】have an effect on“对……产生影响”，固定搭配。
15.【答案】B
【解析】逗号后面的一句是对前句的解释，是举例说明，故选for
example。
16.【答案】A
【解析】这里or与连接的两个词都应是意义相似的令人不愉快的事，选项中与divorce相对应的词只有death。
17.【答案】A
【解析】interpret与as搭配，意为“把……理解为”。
18.【答案】C
【解析】这句是说“并不是所有的孩子同样地都受到玩具、游戏、读物、电视节目的影响。alike“同样地”，意思最接近。
19.【答案】D
【解析】as“正如……”；A、B项选择是感叹词，后面多用逗号。Right在意思上不合适。
20.【答案】B
【解析】本句意为：家庭关系的突然变化或某种经历对孩子的影响取决于他们对这些事如何理解。result“结果”；effect“影响”；scale“刻度”；cause“原因”
