Many linguists believe that evolution is 4 for our ability to produce and use language. They 5 that our highly evolved brain provides us with an innate language ability not fou

3、nd in lower 6 . Proponents of this innateness theory say that our 7 for language is inborn, but that language itself develops gradually, as a function of the growth of the brain during childhood. Therefore there are critical 8 times for language development. Current 9 of innateness theory are mixed,

4、 however, evidence supporting the existence of some innate abilities is undeniable. Indeed, more and more schools are discovering that foreign languages are best taught in the lower grades. Young children often can learn several languages by being 10 to them, while adults have a much harder time lea

5、rning another language once the 11 of their first language have become firmly fixed. Although some aspects of language are undeniably innate, language does not develop automatically in a vacuum. Children who have been 12 from other human beings do not possess language. This demonstrates that 13 with

6、 other human beings is necessary for proper language development. Some linguists believe that this is even more basic to human language 14 than any innate capacities. These theorists view language as imitative, learned behavior. 15 , children learn language from their parents by imitating them. Pare

14、)(A) A weather map is an important tool for geographers. A succession of three or four maps presents the continuous picture of weather changes. Weather forecasters are able to determine the speed of air masses and fronts (锋) to determine whether an individual pressure area is deepening or becoming s

15、hallow and whether a front is increasing or decreasing in intensity (强度). They are also able to determine whether an air mass is retaining its original characteristics or taking on those of the surface over which it is moving. Thus, a most significant function of the map is to reveal a summary pictu

16、re of conditions in the atmosphere at a given time. All students of geography should be able to interpret a weather map accurately. Weather maps contain an enormous amount of information about weather conditions existing at the time of observation over a large geographical area. They reveal in a few

17、 minutes what otherwise would take hours to describe. The United States Weather Bureau issues information about approaching storms，floods, frosts and all climatic conditions in general. Twice a month it issues a 30-day “outlook” which is a rough guide to weather conditions likely to occur over broad

18、 areas of the United States. These 30-day outlooks are based upon an analysis of the upper air levels which often set the stage for development of air masses, fronts and storms. Considerable effort is being exerted today to achieve more accurate weather predictions, with identifying and tracking sto

19、rms over regions which have but few meteorological(气象学的)stations. Extensive experiments are also in progress for weather modification studies. 26.

21、therwise take hours to describe in a few minutes29. A weather map is a summary because it _. A. sums up a great deal of informationB. appears dailyC. shows changing frontsD. is a science book30. You may possibly read this article in _. A. a magazine B. newspaperC. a novel D. a science book(B)2022揭阳模

22、拟 In Western countries people have been using the installment (分期付款) plan since the first half of the twentieth century. Today, a large number of families in Great Britain buy furniture, household goods and cars by installments. In the U. S. A. , the figure is much higher than that in Great Britain,

23、 and people there spend over 10 percent of their income on the installment plan. The price of an article bought on installments is always higher than the price that would be paid by cash. There is a charge for interest. The buyer pays one quarter or one third of the price as a down payment (预付定金) wh

24、en the goods are delivered to him. He then makes regular payments, weekly or monthly, until the full price is paid up. The legal ownership of the goods remains with the seller until the final payment has been made. Installment buying has advantages and disadvantages. It can help couples with small i

25、ncomes to furnish their homes and start housekeeping. It increases the demand for goods, and in this way helps business and employment. There is, however, the danger that when business is bad, installment buying may end suddenly, making business much worse. This may result in a great increase in une

26、mployment. If the people on the installment plan lose their jobs, they will probably not be able to make their payments. If great numbers of people are not able to pay their installment debts, there is a possibility that businessmen cannot collect their debts and will therefore lose money. If busine

27、ssmen lose money or fail to make a satisfactory profit, it becomes more likely to have a depression (萧条). This is why, in some countries, the government controls the installment plan by fixing the amount of the down payment and installments to discourage people from buying more than they can pay for

28、 on the installment plan. 31. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the installment plan? A. A lot of British families use the installment plan. B. More than 10 percent of American families buy things on installments. C. Americans depend more on installment than British people do. D. Americans sp

29、end one tenth of their income on installment buying. 32. Goods bought on installments are more expensive than goods bought by cash because _.

32、to _.

34、of thirteen, and from there he went to Oxford, where he came in contact with some of the best scientists in England. Hooke impressed them with his skill at designing experiments and devising instruments. In 1662, at the age of twenty-eight, he was named Curator of Experiments of the newly-formed Roy

35、al Society of London. Hooke accepted the job, even though he knew that it had no money to pay him! Watching living things through the microscope was one of his favorite occupations. He devised a compound microscope for this purpose. One day while observing a cork(软木) under a microscope, he saw honey

36、comb-like structures. They were cellsthe smallest units of life. In fact, it was Hooke who coined the term “cell” as the box-like cells of the cork reminded him of the cells of a monastery(修道院). Perhaps because of his varied interests, Hooke often left experiments unfinished. Others took up where he

37、 left off and then claimed sole(独占的)credit. This sometimes led to quarrels with colleagues. One work that he finished was his book MICROGRAPHIA, a volume that reveals the immense potential of the microscope. The book also includes, among other things, ideas on gravity and light which may have helped

38、 scientists like Newton while they were developing their own theories on these phenomena. Hooke made valuable contributions to astronomy too.

43、s of Laos, and many of its villages are only accessible by footpath. Our destination this hot morning is a concrete water tank that can be found just off the road. A UK organization helped to build it six years ago, and in the nearby village of Thapho, where clean drinking water is scarce, it has ma

44、de a big difference. The tank feeds six taps which in turn give water to over 800 peopleit has improved things for almost every family, from schoolchildren to grannies. But lately, we were told, the clean water supply has come under pressure from new arrivals, people who have come down from the hill

45、 areas, and there are concerns that there will not be enough clean water to go round. There are also serious worries about resources in Laos.

86、now youre worried about your study because youve not got as good results as some of your classmates in the exams, but thats not the most important, so long as you try your best, Im sure youll make progress. Besides, You have your own virtues which some others dont have, for example, you play basketball better than many other students in our school, and you also play the guitar well. How much we envy you! So never feel discouraged if you fall behind others in your study, and be sure you are good at many aspects. With the best wishes! Yours truly， Wang Yan
