Phnetic (语音) infrmatin—the smallest sund elements f speech—is cnsidered by researchers t be the basis f language. Babies are thught t learn these small sund element s and add them tgether t make wrds. But a new study suggests that phnetic infrmatin is learnt t late and slwly fr this t be the case. Instead, rhythmic (有韵律的) speech helps babies learn language and is effective even in the first few mnths f life.
Researchers frm the Trinity Cllege Dublin investigated babies’ ability t prcess phnetic infrmatin during their first year. Their study, published in the jurnal Nature Cmmunicatins, fund that phnetic infrmatin wasn’t successfully encded (编码) until seven mnths ld, and did nt ccur very ften at 11 mnths ld when babies began t say their first wrds. Frm then individual speech sunds are still added in very slwly—t slwly t frm the basis f language.
The researchers recrded patterns f brain activity in 50 babies at fur, seven, and eleven mnths ld as they watched a vide f a primary schl teacher singing 18 nursery rhymes (童谣) t a baby. They fund that phnetic encding in babies appeared gradually ver the first year f life, beginning with labial sunds (e. g. “d” fr “daddy”） and nasal sunds (e. g. “m” fr “mummy”), with the “read ut” prgressively lking mre like that f adults.
“The reasn why we use nursery rhymes is because that is the best way fr babies t discver and cnnect sunds with language, s we are teaching them hw t speak,” said Givanni Di Libert, lead authr f the study at Trinity Cllege Dublin in Ireland. “Parents shuld talk and sing t their babies as much as pssible r use baby-directed speech because it will make a difference t language utcme,” she added.
8. What shuld babies learn in the first few mnths f life accrding t the new study?
A Small sund elements.B. Rhythmic infrmatin.
C. Phnetic infrmatin.D. Individual wrds.

A. The pr phnetic encding in babies.B. The advantages f phnetic infrmatin.
C. The babies’ great ability t learn language.D. The babies’ grwing prcess in the first year.
10. What des Givanni suggest parents d?
A. Sing nursery rhymes fr babies frequently.B. Play a variety f splendid music fr babies.
C. Affect the children via their wn experience.D. Pay attentin t their children’s speech act.
11. What is the best title f the text?
A. When Babies Are Able t Say Their First Wrds

In a study frm Washingtn State University, researchers have uncvered a significant crrelatin between the clseness f lder adults t green and blue spaces and their mental and physical well-being. The study ffers cnvincing evidence that even small increases in access t nature can remarkably imprve the health utcmes f lder adults.
A mere 10% increase in frest space within a persn’s living envirnment is linked t a nticeable decrease in serius psychlgical cnditins.

The final study expanded t include additinal metrics (指标) such as green space percentage and trail length, als taking int accunt demgraphic variables (人口统计变量) like race and educatin.
“Our findings suggest that abatement f ur urban green and blue spaces due t rapid urbanizatin may nt just have an envirnmental impact but culd have a public health impact as well,” said Adithya Vegaraju, first authr f the study.
Vegaraju said this research is amng the first in the U. S. t specifically investigate the relatinship between access t nature and health in the lder ppulatin.

Phnetic (语音) infrmatin—the smallest sund elements f speech—is cnsidered by researchers t be the basis f language. Babies are thught t learn these small sund element s and add them tgether t make wrds. But a new study suggests that phnetic infrmatin is learnt t late and slwly fr this t be the case. Instead, rhythmic (有韵律的) speech helps babies learn language and is effective even in the first few mnths f life.
Researchers frm the Trinity Cllege Dublin investigated babies’ ability t prcess phnetic infrmatin during their first year. Their study, published in the jurnal Nature Cmmunicatins, fund that phnetic infrmatin wasn’t successfully encded (编码) until seven mnths ld, and did nt ccur very ften at 11 mnths ld when babies began t say their first wrds. Frm then individual speech sunds are still added in very slwly—t slwly t frm the basis f language.
The researchers recrded patterns f brain activity in 50 babies at fur, seven, and eleven mnths ld as they watched a vide f a primary schl teacher singing 18 nursery rhymes (童谣) t a baby. They fund that phnetic encding in babies appeared gradually ver the first year f life, beginning with labial sunds (e. g. “d” fr “daddy”） and nasal sunds (e. g. “m” fr “mummy”), with the “read ut” prgressively lking mre like that f adults.
“The reasn why we use nursery rhymes is because that is the best way fr babies t discver and cnnect sunds with language, s we are teaching them hw t speak,” said Givanni Di Libert, lead authr f the study at Trinity Cllege Dublin in Ireland. “Parents shuld talk and sing t their babies as much as pssible r use baby-directed speech because it will make a difference t language utcme,” she added.

A. Small sund elements.B. Rhythmic infrmatin.

A. Sing nursery rhymes fr babies frequently.B. Play a variety f splendid music fr babies.
C. Affect the children via their wn experience.D. Pay attentin t their children’s speech act.
11. What is the best title f the text?
A. When Babies Are Able t Say Their First Wrds
B. Hw Phnetic Infrmatin Changes Over Time
C. Why Phnetic Is Better Than Rhythmic fr Babies

(但一项新的研究表明，语音信息的学习太迟，而且速度太慢，因此情况并非如此。相反，有节奏的语言有助于婴儿学习语言，即使在生命的最初几个月也是有效的。)”可知，根据最新研究，婴儿在出生的头几个月应该首先学习有韵律的语言信息。故选B。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Researchers frm the Trinity Cllege Dublin investigated babies’ ability t prcess phnetic infrmatin during their first year. Their study, published in the jurnal Nature Cmmunicatins, fund that phnetic infrmatin wasn’t successfully encded (编码) until seven mnths ld, and did nt ccur very ften at 11 mnths ld when babies began t say their first wrds. Frm then individual speech sunds are still added in very slwly—t slwly t frm the basis f language. (都柏林圣三一学院的研究人员调查了婴儿在一岁时处理语音信息的能力。他们的研究发表在《自然通讯》杂志上。发现语音信息直到7个月大时才会被成功编码，而在11个月大的婴儿开始说第一个单词时，这种编码并不经常发生。从那时起，单个语音的加入仍然非常缓慢，慢到无法形成语言的基础。)”可知，第二段主要讨论婴儿语音编码能力很差。故选A。

37. differences
38. challenging
39. But 40. was funded
41. which 42. currently
43. Breaking
44. the 45. t experience
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章描述了一个西班牙学生Albert Estrada学习中文的经历，以及他对中文学习的看法和体验。同时，也介绍了巴塞罗那孔子学院的相关信息，包括其成立时间、提供的课程等。
【36题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：Estrada已经在西班牙巴塞罗那的孔子学院学习了五年。根据句意和句中fr five years可知，study“学习”这一动作开始于过去，持续到现在，并将继续持续下去，由此可知，句子应用现在完成进行时have/has been ding，又因主语Estrada是第三人称单数代词，所以助动词用has。故填has been studying。
【37题详解】
考查名词的数。句意：他说，两种语言的巨大差异意味着中国人觉得西班牙语语法的某些方面很难，而西班牙人则觉得中文发音及汉字具有挑战性。says后为省略引导词that的宾语从句，结合句意可知，差异不止一个，应用名词difference“差异”的复数形式，作宾语从句的主语。故填differences。
【38题详解】
考查形容词。句意：他说，两种语言的巨大差异意味着中国人觉得西班牙语语法的某些方面很难，而西班牙人则觉得中文发音及汉字具有挑战性。这里用challenge的形容词形式challenging“具有挑战性的”，作宾语the prnunciatin f Chinese的补足语。故填challenging。
【39题详解】
考查连词。句意：“我现在不会说中文。但最近几次我去中国，我能够购物、买食物和与人交谈，而不需要转向英语。”根据句意可知，尽管Estrada自认中文说得不够好，但他在中国时已经能完成基本生活交流，空前后为转折关系，用连词but，位于句首，首字母大写。故填But。
40题详解】
考查动词语态。句意：孔子学院于2009年在巴塞罗那成立，作为西班牙和中国大学之间合作努力的一部分，提供14个不同级别的中文课程。根据in 2009可知事情发生在过去，故时态用一般过去时，且The Cnfucius Institute与fund“建立”为被动关系，用一般过去时的被动语态，主语为第三人称单数，be动词用was。故填was funded。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：孔子学院于2009年在巴塞罗那成立，作为西班牙和中国大学之间合作努力的一部分，提供14个不同级别的中文课程。分析句子结构可知，本空引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是The Cnfucius Institute，指物，关系词代替先行词在从句中作主语，应用关系代词which引导。故填which。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意：Estrada目前处于HSK六级中的第四级。本空用形容词current的副词形式currently“目前”，作状语。故填currently。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：打破语言障碍是第一步，一旦他们看到你正在学习他们的语言，他们就会感到更放松，然后很容易建立关系。本句系动词为is，此处为非谓语动词，应用break“打破”的动名词breaking，作主语，位于句首，首字母大写。故填Breaking。
【44题详解】
考查冠词。句意：打破语言障碍是第一步，一旦他们看到你正在学习他们的语言，他们就会感到更放松，然后很容易建立关系。特指language，即“中文”，用定冠词the。故填the。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：Estrada去年夏天在中国待了两个月，他希望在今年年底再次访问中国，以体验中国新年。and后的句子谓语为hpes，此处为非谓语动词，应用experience“体验”的不定式，作目的状语。故填t experience。

【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Asha由于鼻子上长了一颗青春痘而感到非常困扰，在学校遭受同学们的嘲笑和排斥，让她深感焦虑和不安。然而，通过与母亲的交流和阅读一本旧书，她逐渐领悟到外貌并不是衡量一个人的唯一标准，更重要的是内在的品质和个性。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“终于到了讲床上故事的时间了，妈妈让她选一本书。”以及第二段首句内容“她母亲叫她不要以貌取人，而要注意细节。”可知，第一段可描写Asha因为书本封面破旧而不想阅读这本书。
②由第二段首句内容“她母亲叫她不要以貌取人，而要注意细节。”可知，第二段可描写在听完这本书后，Asha被书的内容所吸引，她也明白了内在的品质和个性才是最重要的。
2.续写线索：Asha鼻子上长了一颗青春痘——上了校车后，孩子们都嘲笑她，她非常不安——在学校的一天里，她觉得备受煎熬——晚些时候，她和妈妈一起去超市，又被一个小孩嘲笑了——Asha觉得这一天糟糕极了——到了睡前读故事的时候，妈妈建议她读灰姑娘的故事——可是，Asha看到书本封面太破旧了，不太想读这本书——妈妈告诉Asha外表并不重要，内在的品质才是最重要的——这本书中的精彩内容让Asha明白了妈妈的意思
