effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the

not just their academic ability We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that

mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning

In our classroom, we work in various ways The pupils often work in groups; this gives them the

opportunity to learn to co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills They also learn how to

cope with the personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and

evaluate, to communicate effectively The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teachers

do this at their own speed They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate We

encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this

Throughout history people have always communicated with one another, not only by speech but also

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the

correct answer to each of the following questions

Long before they can actually speak, babies pay special attention to the speech they hear around them

Within the first month of their lives, babies' responses to the sound of the human voice will be

different from their responses to other sorts of auditory stimuli They will stop crying when they hear a

person talking, but not if they hear a bell or the sound of a rattle At first, the sounds that an infant

notices might be only those words that receive the heaviest emphasis and that often occur at the ends

of utterances By the time they are six or seven weeks old, babies can detect the difference between

syllables pronounced with rising and falling inflections Very soon, these differences in adult stress

and intonation can influence babies' emotional states and behavior Long before they develop actual

language comprehension, babies can sense when an adult is playful or angry, attempting to initiate or

Trang 6

Adults make it as easy as they can for babies to pick up a language by exaggerating such cues One

researcher observed babies and their mothers in six diverse cultures and found that, in all six

languages, the mothers used simplified syntax, short utterances and nonsense sounds, and transformed

certain sounds into baby talk Other investigators have noted that when mothers talk to babies who are

only a few months old, they exaggerate the pitch, loudness, and intensity of their words They also

exaggerate their facial expressions, hold vowels longer, and emphasize certain words

More significant for language development than their response to general intonation is observation that

tiny babies can make relatively fine distinctions between speech sounds In other words, babies enter

the world with the ability to make precisely those perceptual discriminations that are necessary if they

are to acquire aural language

Babies obviously derive pleasure from sound input, too: even as young as nine months they will listen

to songs or stories, although the words themselves are beyond their understanding For babies,

language is a sensory-motor delight rather than the route to prosaic meaning that it often is for adults

Question 52: Which of the following can be inferred about the findings described in paragraph 2?

A Babies ignore facial expressions in comprehending aural language

B Mothers from different cultures speak to their babies in similar ways

C Babies who are exposed to more than one language can speak earlier than babies exposed to a

single language

D The mothers observed by the researchers were consciously teaching their babies to speak

Question 53: According to the author, why do babies listen to songs and stories, even though they

cannot understand them?

A They can remember them easily B They focus on the meaning of their parents' word

C They enjoy the sound D They understand the rhythm

Question 54: The passage mentions all of the followings as the ways adults modify their speech when

talking to babies EXCEPT

A speaking with shorter sentences B giving all words equal emphasis

C using meaningless sounds A speaking more loudly than normal

Question 55: The word "diverse" is closest in meaning to

A different B surrounding C stimulating D divided

Question 56: The word "They" refers to

A words B mothers C investigators D babies

Question 57: Why does the author mention "a bell and a rattle"?

A To contrast the reactions of babies to human and nonhuman sounds

B To give examples of typical toys that babies do not like

C To explain how babies distinguish between different nonhuman sounds

D To give examples of sounds that will cause a baby to cry

Question 58: What does the passage mainly discuss?

A The differences between a baby's and an adult's ability to comprehend language

B How babies perceive and respond to the human voice in their earliest stages of language

development

Trang 7

Mã đề 132 7/7

C The response of babies to sounds other than the human voice

D How babies differentiate between the sound of the human voice and other sounds

Question 59: The word "emphasize" is closest in meaning to

A stress B leave out C explain D repeat

Question 60: What point does the author make to illustrate that babies are born with the ability to

acquire language?

A Babies exaggerate their own sounds and expressions

B Babies begin to understand words in songs

C Babies notice even minor differences between speech sounds

D Babies are more sensitive to sounds than are adults

Question 61: The word "noted" is closest in meaning to

A requested B observed C theorized D disagreed
