25、   Studies show that language learning in babies is improved when parents speak more than a few simple words and use a wider vocabulary. Earlier research found that the style of speech used by parents to communicate with their baby could increase language development.

One such speaking style is known as “parentese”. Research has shown that babies react better to this kind of language in the first months of life. Generally, “parentese” requires adults to speak in a higher voice and at a slower speed. The language is made easier to understand, while sentences are short and often repeated.

Can parents be taught good ways to improve their “parentese” skills? Patricia Kuhl, a professor of speech and hearing sciences, carried out a study on it. She says the purpose of the study was to find out whether a parent can be “trained” to create their own speaking style to improve language learning in children.

Naja Ferjan Ramirez helped lead the study. “Most parents know that the amount (数量) of language their child hears is important,” Ferjan Ramirez said. “What we shared with them through training is that how they talk to their baby may matter even more. ”

For the study, parents were given a small recording device (设备), which they put inside a piece of their baby’s clothing. All spoken communication from parents and the child was recorded. The recordings were made at three different periods of the child’s life: when the child was six, ten and fourteen months old. The parents were divided into two groups: a control group and an intervention (干预) group. Those in the intervention group received training after their six and ten month recordings.

The study found that between the ages of six and fourteen months, trained parents increased the amount of speech directed to the child and their use of “parentese” by l5 percent. Parents in the control group showed less growth in those areas, about 7 percent.

【1】What can parents do to improve their baby’s language learning?

A．Communicate with their baby with a few simple words.

B．Communicate with their baby with a wider vocabulary.

C．Communicate with their baby using longer sentences.

D．Communicate with their baby in a gentle voice.

【2】What can we learn about “parentese” from the text?

A．It means that adults talk with their babies in a lower voice.

B．It means that the language parents use becomes more difficult.

C．It means that adults talk with their babies more quickly.

D．It means that the sentences parents use are short.

【3】According to Ferjan Ramirez, what do the researchers want parents to know about through training?

A．The importance of the amount of language their child hears.

B．The importance of the type of language their child understands.

C．The importance of the way parents talk to their children.

D．The importance of high and low voices when parents talk to children.

【4】What can be concluded (推断) from the study mentioned above?

A．Trained parents are more likely to improve their children’s language learning.

B．Six to fourteen months is the best time to improve children’s language learning.

C．Parents in the control group used more “parentese” than in the intervention group.

D．Trained parents needed to use “parentese” for at least fourteen months.

27、   Well today it happened ... A day we never want to happen but continually prepare for throughout the school year.

We had a tornado (龙卷风) touch down near the school. I wasn't even in the classroom when it happened. I had taken a student with me to the workroom to help get things for a project. When the sirens (警报器) went off, I immediately held my student's hand and ran as fast as I could back to the classroom.

Never did I imagine need to put our tornado drills (训练) to use. I never imagined actually needing to line my students up on the wall, have them crouch down with their knees and heads touching the ground, hands on the backs of their heads. Their hearts beating so fast ( and mine, if we are honest ) they couldn't catch their breath ,or the fear filled eyes looking up at me as they asked if their mommies, daddies, grandparents and friends were going to be OK.

Never did I imagine the terrible silence that would come over the whole school, with hundreds of students lined up against the walls of one building.

Never did I imagine the way would feel. Along with other teachers, we tried our best to comfort our students, make sure of their safety and promise them everything would be alright, when we truly didn’t know what the result would be. Today has taken a toll (造成损害) on me, as I am sure it has on the hundreds and thousands of teachers in the local areas. But at the same time, I am really proud and surprised at how my students handled themselves today. In such a scary and dangerous situation, my students handled themselves with the attitudes of children much older than them.

Never in my life have I seen my students follow directions so quickly. Even though some tears were shed, some hearts were beating fast, my students were brave. They had such an unshaking trust in my assistant and myself that they were able to be 100% calm the whole time. I am truly grateful.

Tomorrow will bring a new set of challenges and will be a day used to encourage and prepare the students for the next time this might happen .Right now, look back on the day, being thankful for everyone's safety, courage and bravery.

【3】From ______, we can get to know why the writer highly praised his students.

A.Paragraph 1, 2 and 3 B.Paragraph 4 and 5

C.Paragraph 5 and 6 D.Paragraph 5, 6 and 7
