问题     By adopting a few simple techniques, parents who read to their children can greatly increase their children’s language development. It is surprising but true. How parents talk to their children makes a big difference in the children’s language development. If a parent encourages the child to actively respond to what the parent is reading, the child’s language skills increase.
    A study was done with 30 three-year-old children and their parents. Half of the children participated in the experimental study; the other half acted as the control group. In the experimental group, the parents were given a two-hour training session in which they were taught to ask open-ended questions rather than yes-or-no questions. For example, the parent should ask, "What is the doggie doing?" rather than "Is the doggie running away?" The parents in the experimental group were also instructed in how to help children find answers, how to suggest alternative possibilities and how to praise correct answers.
    At the beginning of the study, the children did not differ in measures of language development, but at the end of one month, the children in the experimental group showed 5. 5 months ahead of the control group on a test of verbal expression and vocabulary. Nine months later, the children in the experimental group still showed an advance of 6 months over the children in the control group.
The best conclusion we can draw from the passage is that______.
选项 A、parents should be trained to read to their children
B、the more children read, the more intelligent they will become
C、children’s language skills increase when they are required to respond actively
D、children who read actively seem six months older
答案C
解析 本题是推断题，也是考查考生对文章细节的把握。答案在第一段最后一句话：If a parent encourages the child to actively respond to what the parent is reading，the child’s language skills increase．“如果家长鼓励孩子们对于家长给他们读的书的内容做出积极的反应，那么孩子们的语言能力就会提高。”因此C为正确答案。
