Decoding the young brainThere was a funny experiment to see how a young child would answer a specific question comp

10、ared to an adult.After the adult had spent some time speaking with the child, he asked the child, “What do you think about me？” The child answered, “You talk too much.” When the adult performed the same experiment with another adult, the reply to the same question was, “I think youre a very interest

11、ing person.” Even if the adult felt the same way as the child, his brain allowed him to take a moment，consider the question, and come up with an answer. He could have been annoyed, but his answer didnt reflect it because he was being polite.The secret lies in the science of the developing brain.The

12、childs honest answer was reflected in the fact that his brain wasnt equipped to filter(过滤) information before answering the question.As a result, he was honest, but he said something that may have been hurtful.However, the child did not intentionally hurt the adult; its just the way his brain works.

13、As a child grows into adolescence and then into adulthood, that changes.The human brain is made up of billions of neurons(神经元). In order for our body to execute a command, like getting up from a chair and walking to the other room, the neurons in the brain have to communicate with each other. They a

14、lso help us employ our senses like taste and touch and help us remember things.When the neurons send messages, perhaps one sensation(感觉) the person feels is excitement about eating a cookie because it is so delicious. Later, if that person smells a cookie or hears someone talking about a cookie, it

15、can spark the electrical signals that call up the memory of eating the delicious cookie. In an adult, he or she may remember that eating too many cookies can have consequences, like weight gain.But because the younger brain is more impulsive(冲动的), the desire to feel the pleasure of the sweet treat o

16、utweighs the consequences.That is because when a child is young, his brain is “wired” in such a way that he seeks pleasure and is more willing to take risks than an adult.This affects his decision-making process and it is why younger people tend to be more impulsive. Sometimes parents have to tell t

17、heir children over and over again before the child remembers that something is dangerous or risky. How many times have we heard a parent say, “I tell her this all the time, but she never listens！”To conclude, what we know about the young brain is that children are more likely than adults to be impul

18、sive.It isnt always necessarily because they are being naughty; it may very well be because of their brains. So the next time you ask a child what he really thinks of you, be prepared for any kind of answer.Decoding the young brainAn experiment on a young childA young child answered the question _71

19、_ the top of his head while an adult paused, and _72_ twice before he found an answer.Causes of the _73_ reflected in the experimentThe developing brain of the young child contributed to his honest answer.He was more likely to hurt or offend others _74_ he didnt intend to do so.Its just the way his

21、.A younger brain is more impulsive compared with an adults.A young childs having a natural _77_ to seek pleasure and take risks results from his young brain.This affects his decision-making process and it is why younger people act in an impulsive way.Warned many times before, a young child will stil

22、l try something _78_ or risky.A conclusion drawn from the experimentAn adults ability to control his impulses is much _79_ and a young child is not _80_ being naughty when they make hurtful or offensive answers.参考答案：71. off 72. thought 73. phenomenon 74. although/though 75. making 76. associate 77.

23、Tendency 78. dangerous 79. stronger/greater 80. necessarily这是一篇说明文。说明了小孩子说一些伤人的、冒犯性的语言并不是故意为之，而是因为儿童的大脑还没有发育完全，不具备在回答问题前过滤信息的功能导致的。【71题详解】由第一段“What do you think about me？” The child answered, “You talk too much.”可知，对于提出的问题，孩子的回答总是答非所问，脱离话题。故填off“脱离；离开”。【72题详解】第一段最后一句“his brain allowed him to take a

24、moment，consider the question, and come up with an answer”可知孩子得出答案前总是会考虑再三。且实验已经发生在过去，故填一般过去时thought。【73题详解】第一段通过实验引出后文中分析造成这种现象的原因，故填phenomenon。【74题详解】由第二段倒数第二句“As a result, he was honest, but he said something that may have been hurtful. However, the child did not intentionally hurt the adult;”可知虽然

25、孩子会说一些伤人的话，但是他们并不是有意的。故第四题填连词although/though“虽然；尽管”。【75题详解】第三段第一句“The human brain is made up of billions of neurons”可知数十亿的神经元组成了人类的大脑。本句已经存在非谓语动词have，故make做非谓语与逻辑主语构成主谓关系，故填making。【76题详解】第三段最后一句“They also help us employ our senses like taste and touch and help us remember things.”可知神经元通过味觉或者触觉帮助我们记住

26、事物，故一个人可能会把饼干的味道和吃饼干的记忆联系起来。故填associate。【77题详解】第五段第一句“That is because when a child is young, his brain is “wired” in such a way that he seeks pleasure and is more willing to take risks than an adult.”（孩子的大脑就会以一种“连线”的方式来寻找快乐，并且比成年人更愿意冒险。）故可知一个年幼的孩子有一种寻求快乐和冒险的自然倾向，这是由他幼小的大脑决定的。故填tendency“倾向；趋势”。【78题详解

27、】第五段倒数第一、二句 “Sometimes parents have to tell their children over and over again before the child remembers that something is dangerous or risky. How many times have we heard a parent say, “I tell her this all the time, but she never listens！”可知即使父母警告过多次，孩子还是会去尝试危险和冒险的食物。故填dangerous。【79题详解】由最后一段第一句“wh

28、at we know about the young brain is that children are more likely than adults to be impulsive.”可知成年人比小孩子控制冲动的能力更强、更好。故填stronger或greater。【80题详解】最后一段第二句“It isnt always necessarily because they are being naughty; it may very well be because of their brains.”可知因为大脑构造的关系，小孩子说一些伤人的、冒犯性的语言并不一定总是因为淘气。故填nece

29、ssarily。三、 阅读理解17. 阅读理解 (每小题3分)I learned to play on a piano purchased at Grinnell Brothers in Detroit.

31、sed with cancer, I played until I nearly dropped. There was a comfort in those keys.That piano followed me everywhere. I moved seven times and it came with me each time. I taught hundreds of children and adults on the keys of my own piano in Taylor for over ten years. I lost my home to a fire in 199

32、8. My piano was destroyed. I felt as though I lost my oldest friend.The insurance supplied the money to purchase another. My two children used to play, but they are married and gone. My mother asked me every time she spoke to me, “Did you get another piano yet?”, even when she struggled to call me by name. After she died in 1999, I received an envelope containing a gift certificate(礼劵) to Hammell Music for a piano. Mother made s
