like tim kovar to far off reaches of the globe. kovar, a tree-climbing instructor, recently returned to the u.s. from brazil, where he spent time developing a tree-climbing operation thanks to the slow travel movement. slow travel, is like the slow food movement, the practice of giving fast food in favor of homegrown cookingthe kind that takes hours to prepare and enjoy. likewise, slow travel urges visitors to experience a places natural surroundings and learn about the ecology in a way not afforded by extreme games. tree climbing is a slow activity, says kovar. its not something you do quickly and then youre on to the next thing or event. there is no such thing as a quick climb, especially for beginners. this wasnt a race against the clock or the fellow climbers. in fact, tree climbing is unlikely to ever become a feature of the extreme games. many climbers refuse competition. there has already been so much competition in the world.when you stand below the tree, it can be amazing, rusel demaria says, looking affectionately up at michaels triumph, a 150-foot-tall tree. but reaching the treetop, he adds, is an entirely different feeling. likewise, his wife, viola brumbaugh, kneels on the ground and asks michaels triumph for permission to climb. it goes a lot smoother that way, she says.and climbing has been included into many educational programs. new tribe offers guided climbs through its school, tree climbing northwest, where we teach enough tree biology and forest ecology to raise awareness in our students, says new tribe present sophis sparks. we know that the tree climbing experience deepens personal appreciation for trees. after climbing, people value trees more and are motivated to support preservation. this is not just to preserve their playground. perhaps that is why he struggles with the term recreational tree climbing, saying, i prefer to call it inspirational tree climbing.16. what do slow travel and the slow food movement have in common?a. they take people a long time. b. they are related to the eco-tourism industry. c. they advocate protecting nature. d. they cost people little money17 hat do we know about tree climbing

have been consistently opposed to feeding a baby regularly. as a doctor, mother and scientist in child development i believe there is nothing to recommend it, from the babys point of view. mothers, doctors and nurses alike have no idea of where a babys blood sugar level lies. all we know is that a low level is harmful to brain development and makes a baby easily annoyed. in this state, the baby is difficult to calm down and sleep is impossible. the baby asks for attention by crying and searching for food with its mouth. it is not just unkind but also dangerous to say a fourhourly feeding schedule will make a baby satisfied. the first of the experts to advocate a strict clockwatching schedule was dr frederic truby king who was against feeding in the night. ive never heard anything so ridiculous. baby feeding shouldnt follow a timetable set by the mum. what is important is feeding a baby in the best way, though it may cause some inconvenience in the first few weeks. well, at last we have copperbottomed research that supports demand feeding and points out the weaknesses of strictly timed feeding. the research finds out that babies who are fed on demand do better at school at age 5, 7, 11 and 14, than babies fed according to the clock. by the age of 8, their iq (智商) scores are four to five percent higher than babies fed by a rigid timetable. this research comes from oxford and essex university using a sample (样本) of 10,419 children born in the early 1990s, taking account of parental education, family income, a childs sex and age, the mothers health and feeding style. these results dont surprise me. feeding according to schedule runs the risk of harming the rapidly growing brain by taking no account of sinking blood sugar levels. i hope this research will put an end to advocating strictly timed baby feeding practices. 31. according to paragraph 2, one reason why a baby cries is that it feels _. asick bupset csleepy dhungry32. what does the author think about dr king? ahe is strict. bhe is unkind.che has the wrong idea. dhe sets a timetable for mothers.33. the word copperbottomed in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to_. abasic breliable csurprising dinteresting34. what does the research tell us about feeding a baby on demand? athe baby will sleep well. bthe baby will have its brain harmed. cthe baby will have a low blood sugar level. dthe baby will grow to be wiser by the age of 8.35. the author supports feeding the baby _. ain the night bevery four hours cwhenever it wants food daccording to its blood sugar level【要点综述】这是一篇议论文。主要介绍了怎样喂婴儿，是根据婴儿的需求还是按照时间表。根据调查研究发现，按照婴儿的需求喂婴儿要比按照时间规定喂婴儿要好很多。31. d细节理解题。从第二段the baby asks for attention by crying and searching for food with its mouth.看出婴儿哭是因为饿了。故选d。32. c作者观点题。根据第三段ive never heard anything so ridiculous. baby feeding shouldnt follow a timetable set by the mum. what is important is feeding a baby in the best way, though it may cause some inconvenience in the first few weeks.看出作者认为dr frederic truby king的观点是不正确的。故选c。33. b词义猜测题。根据本段的research that supports demand feeding and points out the weaknesses of strictly timed feeding. the research finds out that babies who are fed on demand do better at school at age 5, 7 , 11 and 14, than babies fed according to the clock. by the age of 8, their iq (智商)scores are four to five percent higher than babies fed by a rigid timetable.看出这个研究是非常可靠的。basic“基础的，基本的”；reliable“可依赖的，可靠的”；surprising“令人吃惊的”；interesting“有趣的”。故选b。34. d细节理解题。根据第四段by the age of 8, their iq (智商)scores are four to five percent higher than babies fed by a rigid timetable.看出答案。故选d。35. c细节理解题。本文的第一句(i have been consistently opposed to feeding a baby regularly)就提出观点，“反对定时喂婴儿”，最后一句(i hope this research will put an end to advocating strictly timed baby feeding practices)希望结束严格按时喂养的习惯。既然是“不定时”，也就是按婴儿需要喂养，故选c。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的a.b.c和d项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。alanguage learning begins with listening. children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and later starters are often long listeners. most children will “obey” spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word “obey” is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises. any attempt to study the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. it is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on. but since these cant be said to show the babys intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. it is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new words to their store. this self-imitation（模仿）leads on to deliberate（有意的）imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. the problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech. it is a problem we need to get out. the meaning of a word depends on what a particular person means by it in a particular situation and it is clear that what a child means by a word will change as he gains more experience of the world .thus the use at seven months of “mama” as a greeting for his mother cannot be dismissed as a meaningless sound simply because he also uses it at other times for his father, his dog, or anything else he likes. playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself, i doubt, however whether anything is gained when parents take advantage of this ability in an attempt to teach new sounds.1. before children start speaking_.a. they need equal amount of listening b. they need different amounts of listeningc. they are all eager to cooperate with the adults by obeying spoken instructionsd. they cant understand and obey the adults oral instructions2. children who star
