But in Vietnamese there is just one color category for both sky and grass:xanh. For decades cognitive(认知) scientists have pointed to such examples as evidence that language largely determines how we see color. But new research with four-to six-month-old babies indicates that long before we learn language, we see up to five basic categories of colora finding that suggests a stronger biological element to perceive(感知) colors than previously thought.The study, published recently in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA, tested the color-discrimination abilities of more than 170 British babies. Researchers at the University of Sussex in England measured how long babies spent staring at color swatches, a system known as looking time. First babies were showed one swatch repeatedly until their looking time decreaseda sign they had grown bored with it. Then the researchers showed them a different sample and noted their reaction. Longer looking times were explained to mean the babies considered the second sample to be a new color. Their increasing responses showed that they distinguished among five colors:red, green, blue, purple and yellow.The finding “suggests you come by nature to make color distinctions, but given your culture and language, certain distinctions may or may not be used,” explains lead author Alice Skelton, a doctoral student at Sussex.The study systematically explored babies color perception, revealing how we perceive colors before we have the words to describe them, says Angela M. Brown, an experimental psychologist at the Ohio State Universitys College of Optometry, who was not involved with the new research. The results add a new challenge to the long nature-versus-nurture debate and the so-called Sapir-Whorf hypothesis(假设)the idea that the way we see the world is shaped by language. In future work, Skelton and her colleagues are interested in testing babies from other cultures. “The way language and culture interact is a really interesting question,” she says. “We dont yet know the exact systems, but we do know how we start off.”1.Whats the finding of the new research?A.It clarifies what makes babies perceive colors.B.It proves human color recognition is inborn.C.It finds how many colors babies can perceive.D.It shows the color culture is shaped by language.2.According to the new research, we can learn that .A.swatches affect babies in memory and attentionB.longer looking times are based on the psychologyC.researchers determine babies color perceptionD.babies can tell the differences of some colors3.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A.The Rainbow in the Babys WorldB.A Journey to the World of ColorsC.A New Challenge:Language vs. CultureD.Different Babies, Different Color Perception答案语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。文章主要是关于婴儿对颜色的感知能力是天生还是后天随语言而产生的研究。1.B细节理解题。根据第三段The finding “suggests you come by nature to make color distinctions, but given your culture and language, certain distinctions may or may not be used,” explains lead author Alice Skelton, a doctoral student at Sussex.可知,新研究发现人类对颜色的认知是天生的。故选B项。2.D细节理解题。根据第二段中的Their increasing responses showed that they distinguished among five colors:red, green, blue, purple and yellow.以及对第一段最后一句的理解可推断出婴儿可以辨别几种不同的颜色。故选D项。3.A主旨大意题。根据全文的理解可知,这是一篇科学研究类文章,通常第一段就是文章主旨。所以这篇文章主要是关于研究婴儿对颜色的感知能力是天生还是后天随语言而产生的研究。A中 “Rainbow”指代颜色,故选A项。BSome of the worlds most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO(United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization)recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying(统一)voice across cultures.Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.Its Jason Morans job to help change that. As the Kennedy Centers artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible, and preserve its history and culture.“Jazz seems like its not really a part of the American appetite,”Moran tells National Public Radios reporter Neal Conan.“What Im hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and white anymore. Its actually color, and its actually digital.”Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost.“The music cant be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,”says Moran.Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Wallers music for a dance party,“just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,”says Moran.“For me, its the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion(情感)lie?Are we, as humans, gaining any insight(感悟)on how to talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts?Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,”says Moran,“so I want to continue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster.”4.Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day?A.To remember the birth of jazz.B.To protect cultural diversity.C.To encourage people to study music.D.To recognize the value of jazz.5.What does the underlined word“that”in paragraph 3 refer to?A.Jazz becoming more accessible.B.The production of jazz growing faster.C.Jazz being less popular with the young.D.The jazz audience becoming larger.6.What can we infer about Morans opinion on jazz?A.It will disappear gradually.B.It remains black and white.C.It should keep up with the times.D.It changes every 50 years.7.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Exploring the Future of JazzB.The Rise and Fall of JazzC.The Story of a Jazz MusicianD.Celebrating the Jazz Day答案语篇解读本文为说明文。联合国教科文组织把4月30日定为国际爵士乐日,以此提高人们对爵士乐的认识,突出它的重要性。4.D细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句话 “.to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and.”可知,联合国教科文组织把这一天定为国际爵士乐日是为了提高人们对爵士乐的认识,突出它的重要性,即让人们认可它的价值,所以答案为D项。5.C推理判断题。根据第二段中的描述:在美国爵士乐的观众越来越少,年纪也越来越大,这种音乐和年轻一代失去了联系。改变这一点正是Jason Moran的工作。由此可知答案为C项。6.C推理判断题。根据第五段中的 “It has to continue to move, because.”可知,Moran认为爵士乐需要不断地前进,因为当今的世界和以前已经不一样了。由此推断出Moran对爵士乐的看法应该是:爵士乐应该跟上时代的脚步。所以答案为C项。7.A主旨大意题。第一段作者提到为了让人们认可爵士乐的价值而设立了国际爵士乐日;后面描述了爵士乐的现状,指出了为什么现在的年轻人不接受它;再结合最后一段中的“so I want to continue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster.”可知,本文的主题就是探索爵士乐的未来,答案为A项。10
