About six years ago I was eating lunch in a restaurant in New York City when a woman and a young boy sat down at the next table, I couldnt help overhearing parts of their conversation. At one point the woman asked: So, how have you been? And the boywho could not have been more than seven or eight years oldreplied. Frankly, Ive been feeling a little depressed lately. The evidence of a change in children has increased steadily in recent years. Children dont seem childlike anymore. Children speak more like adults, dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used to. Human development is based not only on innate biological states, but also on patterns of access to social knowledge. Movement from one social rote to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new status. Children have always been taught adult secrets, but slowly and in stages: traditionally, we tell sixth graders things we keep hidden from fifth graders. Communication through print, as a matter of fact, allows for a great deal of control over the social information to which children have access. Reading and writing involve a complex code of symbols that must be memorized and practices. Children must read simple books before they can read complex materials. A.a sure sign of a psychological problem in a child. C.an inevitable has of childrens mental development. 正确答案:B 32.Traditionally, a child is supposed to learn about the adult world B.gradually and under guidance. D.through exposure to social information. 解析:问题问的是:传统上,孩子应该怎样了解成人的世界?第五段结尾提到,传统的方法是要让孩子渐渐的,分阶段的了解成人的世界,后面还举例说,六年级要教给孩子的东西对五年级的孩子都要保密。因此B正确,即要在指导下循序渐进的了解。 A.the widespread influence of television. C.the fast pace of human intellectual development. 正确答案:A 34.Why is the author in favor of communication through print for children B.It develops childrens interest in reading and writing. D.It can control what children are to learn. 解析:问题问的是:为什么作者更偏好于通过印刷品向孩子传播文化?最后一段第一句提到印刷品可以有效的控制孩子接触社会信息的渠道。因此D正确,即它能够控制孩子学习的内容。
