21、ntages of the nuclear family for women?A.Husbands have to share power with their wives.B.Older women often live alone when their husbands die.C.Family structure is more patriarchal in the nuclear family.D.Wives usually have to pay all the bills of the family.答案:B解析 11-13 The family is changing. In t

22、he past, grandparents, parents, and children used to live together; in other words, they had an extended family. Sometimes two or more brothers with their wives and children were part of this large family group. But family structure is changing throughout the world. The nuclear family consists of on

23、ly one father, one mother, and children; it is becoming the main family structure everywhere. The nuclear family offers married women some advantages: they have freedom from their relatives, and the husband does not have all the power of the family. Family structure in most parts of the world is sti

24、ll patriarchal; that is, the father is the head of the family and makes most of the important decisions. Studies show, however, that in nuclear families, men and women usually make an equal number of decisions about family life. Also, well-educated husbands and wives often prefer to share the power.

25、 But wives usually have to pay for the benefits of freedom and power. When women lived in extended families, sisters, grandmothers, and aunts helped one another with housework and childcare. In addition, older women in a large family group had important positions. Wives in nuclear families do not of

26、ten enjoy this benefit, and they have another disadvantage, too: women generally live longer than their husbands, so older women from nuclear families often have to live alone. Studies show that women are generally less satisfied with marriage than men are. In the past, men worked outside the home a

27、nd women worked inside. Housework and childcare were a full-time job, and there was no time for anything else. Of course, this situation is changing. Women now work outside the home and have more freedom than they did in the past. Why are some women still discontent? In most parts of the world today

28、, women work because the family needs more money. However, their outside jobs often give them less freedom, not more, because they still have to do most of the housework. The women actually have two full-time jobs, one outside home and another inside, and not much free time. The nuclear family will

29、probably continue to be the main family form of the future. Change, however, usually brings disadvantages along with benefits, and the family forms of the past had many advantages. 本题为推断题。从“and they have another disadvantage，too: women generally live longer than their husbands，so older women from nu

What happened to the child in Fredericks experiment?A.The childs brain was damaged.B.The child died.C.The child kept silent.D.The child heard no mother tongue.答案:C解析 17-20 Is la

34、nguage a basic human need without which a child at a critical period of life can be starved and damaged? Judging from the experiment of Frederick in the thirteenth century it may be. Hoping to discover what language a child would speak if he heard no mother tongue, he told the nurses to keep silent.

35、 All the infants died before the first year. Today no such drastic deprivation exists. Nevertheless, some children are still backward in speaking. Most often the reason is that the mother is insensitive to the signals of the infant. There are critical times when children learn more readily. If these

36、 sensitive periods are neglected, the ideal time for acquiring skills passes and they might never be learned so easily again. Linguists suggest that speech milestone is reached in a fixed sequence and at a constant age. At twelve weeks a baby smiles and utters vowel-like sounds; at twelve months he

37、can speak simple words and understand simple commands; at eighteen months he has a vocabulary of three to fifty words. At three he knows about 1,000 words which he can put into sentences, and at four his language differs from that of his parents in style rather than grammar. Recent evidence suggests

38、 that an infant is born with the capacity to speak. What is special about mans brain is the complex system which enables a child to connect the sight and feel. And even more incredible is the young brains to pick out an order in language from the hubbub of sound around him, to analyze, to combine an

39、d recombine the parts of a language in novels. But speech has to be triggered, and this depends on interaction between the mother and child. Insensitivity of the mother dulls the interaction because the child gets discouraged and sends out only the obvious signals. Sensitivity to the childs non-verb

40、al cues is essential to the growth and development of language. 本题为细节题。从句子“Judging from the experiment of Frederick in the thirteenth century it may be. Hoping to discover what language a child would speak if he heard no mother tongue, he told the nurses to keep silent. All the infants died before t

41、he first year”可知，在实验 中，不能听到声音的婴儿最后都死了。因此选C。5. Why are some children still backward in speaking?A.Their brains have been input with too much language at once.B.They do not listen carefully to their mothers.C.Their mothers are not intelligent enough to help them.D.Their mothers do not respond to their

42、 attempts to speak.答案:D本题为细节题。从句子“Nevertheless, some children are still backward in speaking. Most often the reason is that the mother is insensitive to the signals of the infant”可知，如果母婴之间语言互动交流太少，婴儿的语言能力就会发展迟缓。因此选D。6. What is the difference of the language of a child of four from that of his parent

43、s?A.The vowel sounds.B.The grammar.C.The style.D.The vocabulary.答案:C本题为细节题。从句子“At three he knows about 1，000 words which he Can put into sentences，and at four his language differs from that of his parents in style rather than grammar” 可知，三岁的孩子已能应用1000左右的词汇，而四岁大的孩子在语言能力方面语法与成人 相近，只是说话方式有所差别。7. What i

44、s a possible consequence if the mother does not respond to her childs signals?A.The child will make little effort to speak.B.The child will speak properly all the same.C.The child will stop giving out signalsD.The child will develop a language of its own.答案:A本题为推断题。从句子“But speech has to be triggered

45、, and this depends on interaction between the mother and child. Insensitivity of the mother dulls the interaction because the child gets discouraged and sends out only the obvious signals”可知，母婴之间的 语言互动会促进孩子语言能力的发展，反之，则会使孩子的语言能力发展迟缓。 Questions 1416 are based on the following talk about the bank credi

47、ly at the bank where the card is issued.答案:B解析 14-16 The system of bank credit cards operates in much the same way as a store credit account except that the holder is not restricted to making purchases in one place. Cards can be presented at any place where the bank card sign is displayed, and that

48、could be at a shop, a service station, a hotel, a restaurant or in fact at all kinds of businesses. The sales assistant imprints the card details on to a sales voucher which the customer signs, and the card is then returned to the customer. Each month the bank sends the holder a credit card statemen

49、t setting out where purchases were made and totaling what is owing. A payment has to be made within 25 days of the date of the statement, but not necessarily the full amount. If the customer pays in full within this time the use of the card does not cost anything. But if he decides to pay only the m

50、inimum repayment shown on the statement $5 or 5% of the outstanding balance, whichever is the greater he automatically chooses to use the systems extended repayment facility. The remaining balance is then carried forward and attracts interest at the rate of 2.25% per month. Bank credit cards are mor

51、e versatile than store credit accounts in that they also enable people to obtain cash. Any bank displaying the bank card sign will arrange a cash advance for a card holder, whether or not he is one of their own customers. For money drawn in this way the bank makes a charge at the rate of 2.25% a mon

52、th, calculated daily from the day the advance is obtained. Details of cash advances appear on the monthly bank card statement. The bank credit card system operates entirely separately from cheque accounts, but nevertheless it is a customers previous relationship with his bank that is used as a guide

53、 to the amount of credit he will be extended. When a card is issued a personal credit limit is imposed indicating the maximum that can be owing at any one time. This is confidential between customer and bank and does not appear on the card. 本题为推断题。从句子“The system of bank credit cards operates in much

54、 the same way as a store credit account except that the holder is not restricted to making purchases in one place”可知，信用卡与购物卡的区别是它不仅能购物还能在宾馆及酒店等有刷卡终端 的地方使用。9. What does the bank do when customers buy something using a bank credit card?A.It imprints the card details on to a sales voucher.B.It pays the
