It happens during the stage when a babys babbling (咿呀声) gradually changes from unclear voices into that first “mama” or “dada” . The baby in order to do like you has to figure out how to shape their lips to make that particular sound they are hearing, according to developmental psychologist David Lewkowicz of Florida Atlantic University, who led the study.Apparently it doesnt take them too long to absorb the movements that match basic sounds. By their first birthdays, babies start changing back to look you in the eye again. It offers more evidence that quality face-time with babies is very important for speech development more than, say, turning on the latest baby DVD.But Lewkowicz went a step further. He and his student Amy Hansen-Tift tested nearly 180 babies, groups of them at ages 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 months. How? They showed videos of a woman speaking in English or Spanish to babies of English speakers. They found that when the speaker used English, the 4-month-olds gazed mostly into her eyes. The 6-months-olds spent equal amounts of time looking at the eyes and the mouth. The 8-and 10-month-olds studied mostly the mouth. At 12 months, attention started changing back toward the speakers eyes.But what happened when these babies accustomed to English heard Spanish? The 12-month-olds studied the mouth longer, just like younger babies. They needed the extra information to recognize the unfamiliar sounds. That fits with research into bilingualism (双语)that shows babies brains adjust themselves to distinguishing the sounds of their native language over other languages in the first year of life.The continued lip-reading shows the 1-year-olds clearly still are fit for learning. Babies are so hard to study that this is “a fairly heroic data set”, says Duke University cognitive neuroscientist Greg Appelbaum, who found the research so fascinating that he wants to know more.1.Accordingtothefirstparagraph,babies_.A.mightgetitsvoice “mama” bylip-readingB.learntotalkjustfromhearingthesoundsC. liketofigureouthowtoshapetheirlipsD.communicatewithparentsthroughgestures2.Whatisnecessaryindevelopingbabies speechaccordingtoLewkowicz?

But walk down any hallway of the new Germantown High School in Madison County, Mississippi, and you wont spot a single locker. New technology such as e-books, interactive(互动的)assignments and Web-based learning is making lockers in American high school a thing of the past. Officials from schools that have listed several benefits: less noise, less delay and an increased sense of safety. “Its all to create an environment thats student-friendly”, said Ronnie McGehee, chief official of the Madison County School district.Getting rid of lockers can also cut hundreds of thousands in construction costs. Madison County saved $200,000 by not including lockers in the new high school, Mc Gehee said.It is also believed that removing lockers could help prevent school violence. ”Lockers give kids a place to hide things”, said Mike Nelson, founder of a safety- training group. Nelson believes that some school shootings and other incidents could have been prevented if there had been no lockers.However, Andrew Booth, a 10th-grader at Gemantown High, said there are some disadvantages of not having a locker. “ It can make your book bag really heavy”, he said . The 16-year-old has four textbooks “plus notebooks and a binder(活页夹)” to carry to school each day.He said some teachers have shelves at the back of the classroom on which students can leave their bags. Others provide an extra set of textbooks in the classroom, so students dont have to carry books from home.New York architect Pestr Lippman said schools will have to address such concerns and find ways to give studets a “sense of space” “If you are carrying books around, it does limit your flexibility in the classrooms,” he said.Lippman said he would like to see schools starting to use the new free space to provide less structured learning opprtunities for students, including gathering areas and learning centers. “If you think about a school with just rows of lockers-theres nowhere for learning opportunities in that”, he said.62. What does the text mainly talk about?A. The history and development of lockers in US high schools.B. The influence of new technology on some US high schools.C. The trend of getting rid of lockers in US high schools.D. The advantages and disadvantages of lockers in US high schools.【答案】C【解析】根据文章最后一段最后一句，如果学校有成行的储物柜，就没有学习的机会。 可知去掉储物柜，在美国中学中是一种趋势。63.

B. in response to parentsrequests C. for the studentssecutity at school D. to save construction costs【答案】A【解析】根据第二段可知。新技术像电子图书，交互式作业，基于网络的学习等正使储物柜成为美国中学的一件过去的东西。64. What is not the advantage of getting rid of lockers? A. Saving money. B. Making less noise. C. Preventing school violence. D.

There, a few kids picked on(欺负)me, calling me names. Then I knew. After that, I began to hate the first day of school each year. I didnt know who was new and would stare at me as I struggled to climb the school bus stairs. Some of the kids would point and say, “Look at that kid. Look at her.”As time went on, I just tried to smile and accept the fact that I was going to be noticed my whole life. I was determined to make my uniqueness an advantage rather than a disadvantage. My friends became increasingly protective. Theyd help me up the bus steps. If people were cruel, they would take them aside and correct them. What I lacked in height, I made up for in personalitymy ability to laugh, even at myself. For example, one time I was reaching into the washing machine at my parents house to grab the wet clothes. I fell all the way in and yell for Mother, who was sitting nearby reading the paper. Watching feet flying everywhere, she laughed quietly and said, “I should leave you there.”I laughed with her. Im 47 now
