readtothcirchildrcncangreatlyincreasetheirchildrcn'slanguagcdevelopment.可知，

父母給孩子讀書的時(shí)候，通過采用一些簡(jiǎn)單的方法可以極大提高孩子的語言能力。

因此可以得出這樣的結(jié)論：語言能力可以通過適當(dāng)?shù)姆椒ㄝp松地提高。D正確。

7、Whatdoes"it"inline2canmostprobablybereplacedby?

A^Parentsincreasingchildren'slanguagedevelopment.

B、Readingtechniquesbeingsimple.

們學(xué)會(huì)向孩子們提一些開放式問題，而不是問用“是或不是''回答的問題。再根據(jù)下

文提問的舉例可推出家長(zhǎng)提出的最好的問題應(yīng)該是：Whatanimalsdoyoulike?（你

喜歡什么樣的動(dòng)物?）C為正確答案。

9、Thedifferencebetweenthecontrolgroupandtheexperimentalgroupwas.

A、thetrainingthatparentsreceived

B、theageofthechildren

C、thebooksthatwereread

D、thenumberofthechildren

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

givenatwo—hourtrainingsession.」在實(shí)驗(yàn)組里,對(duì)家長(zhǎng)進(jìn)行了兩小時(shí)的培訓(xùn))

培訓(xùn)。

C>alltheshopscloseforatwo-wcckChristmasholiday

D、peopledoivthaveenoughmoneytogolookingfbrbargains

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：其中A項(xiàng)中的關(guān)鍵詞為discount,它的意思是“reductioninprice”］降

價(jià)），與文章第一段中“AHtheshopsreducetheirprices.”的意思相一致，故A項(xiàng)是

正確的。其他三個(gè)選項(xiàng)都不符合文章的意思。

17、Inthispassage,theword"bargain"couldbestbereplacedby"something

A、giventopeople

B、offeredatareducedprice

C、offered,soldorboughtwhichisexpensive

D、soldforthepurposeofreachinganagreement

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B--

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：題中“bargain”為關(guān)鍵詞，它的意思是“somethingthatischeap”（便宜

貨），與B項(xiàng)“降價(jià)所提供的東西”相一致，所以B項(xiàng)是正確答案。

Thehusbandandwifeinthestory.

A、wishedtobuyaTV

B、wenttothesalesnormally

C^oftenwenttothesalestobuyclothes

D、wereusuallynotshortofmoneyafterChristmas

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：從文章第二段中的第二句"Webothnccdcd...andwerehopingtofinda

lelevisionsel.”可判斷A項(xiàng)為正確答案。其他三項(xiàng)不符合文章的意思。

19、Thephrase"splitup"inthesecondparagraphmeans"

A、breakapart

B、causetobreak

C^becomepieces

D、goindifferentdirections

知識(shí)點(diǎn)解析：短語動(dòng)詞splitup的漢語意思是：朝不同方向前進(jìn)。如：Thegroup

splituptotrytofindfood］隊(duì)伍分頭去尋找食物）。D項(xiàng)就是splitup的含義，故為正

確答案。

B、hadgoteverythingtheywanted

C>gotmorethantheyhadhopedfor

D、hadtogobacktothesalesthenextday

機(jī)，和C項(xiàng)內(nèi)容相符；比他們?cè)瓉硐Ｍ?gòu)買的要多。其他三項(xiàng)和文章的內(nèi)容不
