Adults speaking to children helps language develop, but what matters much more is the interaction (交流), said the studys lead author, Frederick Zimmerman, an associate professor in the School of Public Health at the University of California, Los Angeles. The researchers also found that TV viewing didnt have much of an effect-positively or negatively-as long as it wasnt displacing conversations between an adult and a child.The UCLA study included 275 families with children between 2 months and 48 months old. They represented a variety of incomes(收入) and education. The researchers found that, in an average day, children hear about 13,000 spoken words from adults and took part in about 400 adult-child conversations a day.Factors(因素) positively associated with language development included each additional额外的) 100 conversations a day and each 1,000 word increase in the number of words spoken by adults and heard by children. When looked at alone, TV was negatively associated with language development. But, when the three factors were put together, the only one that stood out was conversation between adults and children.The more a child speaks and interacts with an adult, the better idea a parent has about where the child is, Zimmerman said. Although its mostly done unconsciously(无意识地), parents will provide more information and correct mistakes. Theyll also tailor their speech to the child. Parents can give a child words by talking to them about what theyre doing, such as, I m putting on your pajamas now. But youre your child the opportunity to talk, hopefully without the rest of the noise in the environment, she added. If parents can spare some conversation time-maybe at bath time or at dinner time-thats a wonderful thing.（1）The researchers also found that TV viewing _. A . could have a positive effete on a childs language developmentB . had a little effect on a childs language developmentC . affected a childs language development more negatively than positivelyD . affected a childs language development both negatively and positively（2）Frederick Zimmerman would probably agree that _. A . parents should let their children talk most of the time.B . children should watch TV programs alone all the time.C . the conversation between parents and children should be two-wayD . its no good for parents to correct their childrens mistakes when they are speaking（3）We can get from the last paragraph that _. A . parents should let a child repeat what he or she saysB . bath time or dinner time is the best chance for parents to talk to a childC . parent-child conversation can be carried out at any proper timeD . parents should leave a child talking alone（4）What does the underlined sentence mean in the last paragraph? It means _. A . Parents will make clothes for children as tailors.B . Parents will choose the topics that children are interested in.C . Parents will help kids to correct their mistakes.D . Parents will keep quiet when they have nothing to talk.（5）What would be the best title for the passage? A . Talk with kids, not to themB . Let your children voice their own opinionsC . How to develop a childs language abilityD . The importance of early child language development14. （10分）阅读理解DDo you want to be a basketball player like Kobe Bryant or Shaquille ONeal？Come to join us！We have many sports clubs(俱乐部)：basketball，pingpong，soccer，volleyball and so on.

It influences health, intelligence(智力) and feelings.In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these states(州) have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 report by scientists, IQ(智商) of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% lower.

Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).Weather also has a strong influence on peoples feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18, people become stronger.Low air pressure(气压) may make people forgetful(健忘). People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days.
