11、 misfortune(不幸,灾祸,灾难)frustration(挫折,灰心丧气), tiredness (疲劳的,累的)or just bad temper(脾气)that show what the accident really is, a sort of attack(进攻,攻击) on oneself.Road accidents, for example, happen frequently(经常地,屡次地) after a family quarrel( 争吵), and we all know people who are accident-prone(有.倾向的), so o

12、ften at odds(困难) with themselves and the world that they seem to cause accidents for themselves and others.By definition(定义,解说), an accident is something you can not predict(预言,预告,预测) or avoid(避免,回避,躲开), and the idea which used to be current(当前的,通用的), that the majority (多数,大多数)of road accidents are

13、caused by a minority(少数) of criminally careless(粗心的) drivers, is not supported by insurance(保险,保险费) statistics(统计,统计数字). These show that most accidents involve(使卷入,牵涉) ordinary (普通的)motorists(开汽车的人) in a moments of carelessness(粗心) or thoughtlessness.(欠考虑的,自私的)It is not always clear, either, what so

14、rt of conditions(条件,状况) make people more likely(可能的,很可能) to have an accident. For instance(例子,实例,事例), the law requires(需要,要求) all factories to take safety precautions and most companies(公司) have safety committees(委员会,全体委员) to make sure the regulations (规则,规章,管理)are observed(观察), but still, every day

15、 in Britain, some fifty thousand men and women are injured (伤害,损害,损伤)from work due(由于,应归于) to accidents. These accidents are largely the result of human error (错误,差错)or misjudgmentnoise and fatigue(疲劳,劳累), boredom(烦恼,无聊) or worry are possible factors (因素)which contribute(有助于.,促成) to this. Doctors wh

16、o work in factories have found that those who drink too much, usually people who have a high anxiety(焦虑,忧虑,渴望) level, run three times the normal risk (风险,危险,冒险)of accidents at work.6. The passage suggests that_.A) Accidents are usually caused by psychological(心理的,心理学的) factors.B) Accidents mostly re

20、ety(焦虑,忧虑,渴望)B) How to Deal with Accidents on Road and in FactoriesC) Human Factors in AccidentsD) How to Prevent(防止,阻止) Accidents on Road and in FactoriesPassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Is language, like food, a basic human need? Judging from the result of the vio

21、lent experiment by a German King, Frederick II, in the 13th 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(婴儿) died before the first year. But clearly there was more than language deprivation(剥夺

22、,丧失) here. What was missing was good mothering. Without good mothering, in the first year of life especially, the capacity(能力,容量) to survive(幸免于,活下来) is seriously affected.Today no much violent deprivation exists as that by Frederick II. Nevertheless(然而,仍然), some children are still backward(向后的,向后)

23、in speaking. Most often the reason for this is that the mother is insensitive (不敏感的)to the signals(信号) of the infant, whose brain(脑力,智能) is programmed to map up language rapidly. There are critical(紧要的,关键性的) times, it seems, when children learn more readily. If these sensitive(敏感的,灵敏的) periods are n

24、eglected(忽略,忽视), the ideal time for acquiring(取得,获得,学到) language skills passes and they might never be learned so easily again.Linguists(语言学家)suggest that speech stages(阶段) are reached in a fixed sequence(连续,继续) and at a constant(经常的) age, but there are cases where speech has started late in a child

25、 who eventually(终于,最后) turns out to be of high IQ.Recent evidence(根据) suggests that an infant is born with the capacity(能力) to speak. What is special about Mans brain(脑力,智能) compared(比较,对照) with that of the monkey, is the complex (复杂的)system which enables(使能够,使可能) a child to connect the sight and fe

26、el of , say, a teddy-bear(玩具熊)with the sound pattern (式样)“teddy-bear”.But speech has to be stimulated(刺激,激发), and this depends on interaction (相互作用,干扰)between the mother and the child, where the mother recognizes the signals(信号) in the childs babbling(牙牙学语), grasping(贪心的,贪婪的), crying, smiling, and r

27、esponds(响应) to them. Insensitivity of the mother to these signals dulls(枯燥的,不鲜明的) the interaction because the child gets discouraged (泄气的)and sends out only the obvious signals. Sensitivity(敏感) to the childs non-verbal signals is essential(必要的) to the growth and development language.11. Frederick II

28、s experiment was violent because_.A) he wanted to prove children are born with ability to speakB)he ignored the importance of mothering to the infantC) he was unkind to the nurseD) he wanted his nurses to say no mother tongue12. The reason some children are backward in speaking today that_.A) their

29、mothers do not respond to their attempts to speakB) their mothers are not intelligent(聪明的,理智的) enough to help themC) they do not listen carefully to their mothersD) their brains have to absorb(吸收) too much language at once.13. By “critical(紧要的,关键性的) times” in Paragraph 3 the author means_.A) difficu

30、lt periods in the childs lifeB) moments when the child becomes critical to its motherC) important stages(阶段) in the childs developmentD) times when mothers often neglect(忽视,忽略,疏忽) their children14. Which of the following in NOT implied in the passage?A) Ability to learn to speak a language is inborn

31、(天生的,天赋的) in manB) Children do not need to be encouraged to learn to speakC) Early language starters are not necessarily highly intelligentD) Most children learn their language in definite(明确的,肯定的) stages15. If the mother does not respond to her childs signals_.A) the child will never be able to spe

32、ak properly(适当地,彻底地)B) the child will stop giving out signalsC) the child will invent a language of his ownD) the child will make little effort(努力) to speakPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Americans who remember “the good old days” are not alone in complaining (抱怨)ab

33、out the educational system in this country. Immigrants(移民) complain ,too. Lately a German friend was filled (装满)with anger when he learned that the mathematics(数学) test given to his son on his first day as a college freshman included multiplication and division. Japanese businessmen in Los Angeles s

34、end their children to private schools staffed by teachers imported from Japan to learn mathematics at Japanese levels, generally considered at least a year more advanced than the level here.But I wonder: If American education is so poor, why is it that this is still the country of innovation(创新)?Whe

35、n I was 12 in Indonesia, I had to memorize the name of all the worlds major cities, from Kabul to Karachi. At the same age, my son, who was brought up by a Californian, thought that Buenos Aires was Spanish for good food. However, unlike children of his age in Asia and Europe, my son had studied cre

36、ative geography. When he was only 6, he drew a map of the route that he traveled to get to school, including the streets, the traffic signs and the houses that he passed.Dissatisfied American parents forget that in this country their children are able to experiment freely with ideas; without this th

37、ey will not really be able to think or to believe in themselves.Critics of American education cannot grasp one thing: freedom. America, I think, is the only country that extends even to children the license to freely speak, write and be creative. Our public education certainly is not perfect, but it

38、 is a great deal better than any other. I think I have found the answer to my question.16.

40、immigrant from Asia and received some school education there.B) Buenos Aires must be the name of a city, as are Kabul and Karachi.C) Children in other countries are not likely to learn creative geography.D) The knowledge of geography of the authors son shows that American education is poor.18.
