DO SMALLER CLASSES REALLY HELP?
In an experiment in Canada, ten-year-old children were put in classes of four sizes: 16, 23, 30 and
37 children in (31) class Their teachers said that the smaller classes would result in more individual
attention and better marks However, when the children were (32) , those in the smaller classes
didn’t get higher marks than the others, except in mathematics Moreover, children in the larger classes
said they liked school (33) as much
Perhaps the most surprising result was the difference between what teachers expected and the
actual results obtained More than 90% of the teachers expected the smaller classes to (34) well
After teaching these smaller classes, over 80% of the teachers thought the pupils had done better
However, according to the researchers, nothing of the (35) happened Class size seemed to make a
difference only to the teachers’ own attitudes - and not to the results they obtained

A small but growing group of scholars, evolutionary psychologists, are being to sketch
the contours of the human mind as designed by natural selection Some of
Trang 4them even anticipate the coming of a field called "mismatch theory", which would
study maladies resulting from contrasts between the modern environment and the
"ancestral environment" The one we were designed for There is no shortage of
such maladies to study Rates of depression have been doubling in some industrial
countries roughly every 10 years Suicide is the third most common cause of death
among young adults, after car wrecks and homicides
Evolutionary psychology is a long way from explaining all this with precision,
but it is already shedding enough light to challenge some conventional wisdom It
suggests for example, that the nostalgia for the nuclear family of the 1950s is in
some way misguided-that the model family of husband at work and wife at home
is hardly a "natural" and the healthful living arrangement, especially for the wives
Moreover, the bygone lifestyles that do look fairly by commercialism Perhaps the
biggest surprise from evolutionary psychology is it depiction of the "animal" in us
Freud, and various thinkers since, saw "civilization" as an oppressive force that
thwarts basic animal instincts and urges and transmutes them into psychopathology
However, evolutionary psychology suggests that a large threat to mental health
may be the way civilization thwarts civility There is a gentler, kinder side of human
nature, and it seems increasingly to be a victim of repression in modern society
Question 36: Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?
A How evolutionary psychology manages modern society
B The problems of illness caused by modern society
C The importance of ancestral environment
D Evolutionary psychologists' views on the nuclear family
Question 37: The word "contours" is closest in meaning to
A actions B limits C structures D outlines
Question 38: According to the passage, the death of many young people in industrial countries is mainly caused
by
A murder B traffic accidents C suicide D depression
Question 39: The word "one" refers to the
C modern environment D ancestral environment
Question 40: The word "by gone" could be replaced by
A overlooked B forgotten C past D original
Question 41: In the passage, evolutionary psychologists suggest that in modern society
A victims are always punished
B people's better natures are denied
C repressed people are kind and gentle
D people suffer from repression
Question 42: Where in the passage does the author suggest a conflict between the way of living?
A.line 1−4 B line 10−14 C line 16−18 D line 18−20
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 questions from 43 to 50
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
Trang 5receive 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 terminate new behavior, and so on, merely on the basis of cues such as the rate, volume, and melody of adult speech
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 43: 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 44: 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 45: 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 D speaking more loudly than normal
Question 46: The word "diverse" is closest in meaning to
A different B surrounding C stimulating D divided
Question 47: The word "They" refers to
A words B mothers C investigators D babies
Question 48: 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
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 49: The word "emphasize" is closest in meaning to
A stress B leave out C explain D repeat
Trang 6Question 50: 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
