A scientist wrking at her lab bench and a six-mnth-ld baby playing with his fd might seem t have little in cmmn.After all,the scientist is engaged in serius research t uncver the very nature f the physical wrld,and the baby is,well,just ,but sme develpmental psychlgists have argued that this “play” is mre like a scientific investigatin than ne might think.
Take a clser lk at the baby playing at the table.Each time the bwl f rice is pushed ver the table edge,it falls t the grund—and,in the prcess,it brings ut imprtant evidence abut hw physical bjects interact(相互作用):bwls f rice d nt flat in mid-air,but require supprt t remain stable.It is likely that babies are nt brn knwing this basic fact f the universe;nr are they ever clearly taught it.Instead,babies may frm an understanding f bject supprt thrugh repeated experiments and then build n this knwledge t learn even mre abut hw bjects interact.Thugh their ranges and tls differ,the baby's investigatin and the scientist's experiment appear t share the same aim(t learn abut the natural wrld),verall apprach (gathering direct evidence frm the wrld),and lgic (are my bservatins what I expected?).
Sme psychlgists suggest that yung children learn abut mre than just the physical wrld in this way—that they investigate human psychlgy and the rules f language using similar means.Fr example,it may nly be thrugh repeated experiments,evidence gathering,and finally verturning a thery,that a baby will cme t accept the idea that ther peple can have different views and desires frm what he r she has,fr example,unlike the child,Mmmy actually desn't like Dve chclate.
Viewing childhd develpment as a scientific investigatin thrws light n hw children learn,but it als ffers an inspiring lk at science and scientists.Why d yung children and scientists seem t be s much alike?Psychlgists have suggested that science as an effrt—the desire t explre,explain,and understand ur wrld—is simply smething that cmes frm ur babyhd.Perhaps evlutin(進化) prvided human babies with curisity and a natural drive t explain their wrlds,and adult scientists simply make use f the same drive that served them as children.The same cgnitive(認知的) systems that make yung children feel gd abut figuring smething ut may have been adpted by adult scientists.As sme psychlgists put it,“It is nt that children are little scientists but that scientists are big children.”

Lng ag,pems were recited ut lud instead f being written dwn.Back when the Greeks first started the Olympics,they held petry cntests as well as athletic cmpetitins.
Nw,petry cmpetitins have been revived.This year 120,000 high schl students cmpeted in the first Petry Out Lud natinal recitatin cntest,perfrming pems frm memry fr $100,000 in prizes.
The first cmpetitins were held in classrms.The winners went n t schlwide cntests,and then they cmpeted in city and state cmpetitins,and then the 50 state champins,alng with the District f Clumbia champin,came t Washingtn,D.C.,last week fr the last shwdwn(對決).After the 51 champins cmpeted against ne anther,12 went n t the finals.Then the field was narrwed t five.The final five had ne last chance t “perfrm” a pem.The verall champ,Jacksn Hille,a high schl senir frm Ohi,wn a $20,000 schlarship.
The Natinal Endwment fr the Arts and the Petry Fundatin started Petry Out Lud because they realized that hearing a pem perfrmed is a different experience frm reading it n the page.
It's nt just a matter f saying the wrds in the right rder.It's the tne f vice,the pauses,the gestures,and the attitude f the persn perfrming that bring the wrds t life.“Each time we hear smebdy recite a pem,we understand again what we fund fresh and interesting abut it,”says Natinal Public Radi bradcaster Sctt Simn,master f ceremnies fr the finals.Hearing it in a new vice ffers smething new t the listener.
Nt nly d the peple hearing pems have a new experience,memrizing and presenting pems helps the participants understand thse pems in a new way.Anther benefit f a cmpetitin such as Petry Out Lud is that the participants learn public-speaking skills that can help them fr life.

1.D 解析 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句中“ ‘play'ismrelikeascientificinvestigatin...”可知,科學(xué)實驗和孩子的玩耍這兩種行為均包含一種共性。D項中issmehwsimilart和句中ismrelike為同義詞替換。
2.D 解析 細節(jié)理解題。在第二段中,作者通過實例論證了嬰兒的玩耍和科學(xué)家們的實驗兩者間存在的共性,即目的、方法和邏輯相同。注意該段落最后一句話括號中的信息:gatheringdirectevidencefrmthewrld,D項中的cllect 和gathering屬于同義詞替換。故選D項。
3.C 解析 推理判斷題。推理判斷的起點是第三段第一句中usingsimilarmeans這一說明。既然調(diào)查人類心理和語言規(guī)則的方法同上,則應(yīng)該從上文的第二段中找到對應(yīng)的方法,即第二段倒數(shù)第二句中的thrughrepeatedexperiments,因此選擇C項。
4.B 解析 段落大意題。段落的首句為該段的主旨句。該句句意:把兒童的發(fā)展看作是一個科學(xué)研究的過程,這闡明了孩子學(xué)習(xí)的方法;同時也對怎樣看待科學(xué)和科學(xué)家具有啟示性意義。因此研究嬰兒的玩耍的科學(xué)性可以更好地理解科學(xué)本身的發(fā)展,故B項正確。
5.D 解析 推理判斷題。該題要求判斷作者的語氣(tne),需從作者的用詞來作出判斷,特別是副詞、形容詞、情態(tài)動詞等的使用。第一段中的“Perhaps”,第二段中的“Itislikelythat...,may,appear”,第三段中的“may”,以及第四段中的“Perhaps,may”等這些詞都說明了作者在下結(jié)論或作出判斷時所持有的謹(jǐn)慎(cautius)態(tài)度。
6.C 解析 推理判斷題。由第一段內(nèi)容可知,在很久以前詩歌是大聲朗誦出來的,而不是寫下來的。故選C項。
