20、ws” But not too long ago these words in combination would have meant little to everyday English speakers.Anatoly Liberman, a German, writes about the origins of the word “fake”. The word, it turns out, has a very dark past. The best guess for how “fake” became mainstream, argues Liberman, is that it

21、 was a kind used by thieves in the London underworld. But“how it got there, nobody in the world knows, and probably nobody will ever know,” he tells Quartz.Liberman is a professor at the University of Minnesota and the author of Word Origins and How We Know Them. He writes that early records of “fak

22、e” as an English adjective appeared around the middle of the 18th century. The word likely comes from cant, or thief jargon(行话).The OED mentions “fake” as a verb starting in 1819, which basically meantto do”in jargon, but also“to kill , wound, or rob”. An entry from a dictionary that year reads :“To

23、 fake any person or place, to rob them ;to fake a person may also imply to shoot, wound, or cut; to fake a man out and out, is to kill him.”Liberman traces the word next to Chares Dickens, who used “cly-faker”，where “cly” means pocket, in Oliver Twist. This is how he believes knowledge of “fake”as a

25、CHe lived in England for a long time.DHe likes writing articles in English very much.3、What is mainly discussed in this passage?AThe history of English words.BSome stories about English words.CThe importance of the English word “fake”DThe origins of an English word.4、What can we infer from this pass

26、age?AWe must focus on the words of Donald Trump.BWe should study English words very carefully.C“Fake” likely comes from words used by a class of people.DAnatoly Liberman likes to trace the commonplace English words.23（8分） Recently， a 1935 letter in which Ernest Hemingway detailed his catch of a 500l

29、ing the plot of the novelThe company added that Hemingways account of the marlin catch differed from other anecdotes of it， one of which described Hemingway using a machine gun on the sharks， which is said to have attracted more sharks rather than frightened them awayThe Old Man and the Sea was also

30、 inspired by an anecdote told by Hemingways Cuban friend Carlos Gutierrez In 1936， Hemingway wrote in a magazine that Carlos had told him about an old fisherman who caught a great marlin aloneThree years later， Hemingway told his editor Max Perkins that he was planning a short story about the old co

In an attempt to help the children of poor f

35、amilies, a nationwide program called “Headstart” was started in the US in 1965. A lot of money was poured into it. It took children into pre-school institutions at the age of three and was supposed to help them succeed in school. But the results have been disappointing , because the program began to

36、o late. Many children who entered it at three were already behind their peers in language and intelligence and the parents were not involved in the process. At the end of each day, “Headstart” children returned to the same disadvantaged home environment.To improve the results, another program was st

37、arted in Missouri that concentrated on parents as the child,s first teachers. This program was based on research showing that working with the family is the most effective way of helping children get the best possible start in life. The four-year study included 380 families who were about to have th

38、eir first child and represented different social-economic status, age and family structure. The program involved trained educators visiting and working with the parent or parents and the child. The program also gave the parents some guidance, and useful skills on child development.At three, the chil

39、dren involved in the “Missouri” program were evaluated with the children selected from the same socio-economic background and family situations. The results were obvious. The children in the program were more advanced in language development, problem solving and other intellectual skills than their

40、peers. They performed equally well regardless of socio-economic backgrounds or family structure. The one factor that was found to affect the child,s development was the poor quality of parent-child interaction. That interaction was not necessarily bad in poorer families.The “Missouri” program compar

41、es quite distinctly with the “Headstart” program. Without a similar focus on parent education and on the vital importance of the first three years, some evidence indicates that it will not be enough to overcome educational unfairness.1、What caused the failure of the “Headstart” program ?AThe large n
