It is, everyone agrees, a huge task that the child performs when he learns to speak, and the fact that he does so in so short a period of time challenges explanation.
Language learning begins with listening. Individual children vary greatly in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and late starters are often long listeners. Most children will "obey" spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word obey is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises.
Any attempt to trace the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves out as particularly indicative of delight, distress, sociability, and so on. But since these cannot be said to show the baby’s intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new sounds to their repertoire (能发出的全部声音). This self-imitation leads on to deliberate (有意识的) imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.
The third paragraph is mainly about______.
选项
A、the development of babies’ early forms of language
B、the difficulties of babies in learning to speak
C、babies’ strong desire to communicate
D、babies’ intention to communicate
答案
A
解析
本题是一道段落大意类问题。问本文第三段的中心大意是什么。第三段第一句话是本段的主题句。这段指出,对婴儿从发声到开始说话的过程进行跟踪的困难往往相当大。人们认为婴儿很喜欢发出种种声响,从他们出生的头几个月发出的这种那种声音就可以分出是表示高兴还是不高兴,或是表示愿意和人呆在一起。但这些都不能表示婴儿想要进行语言交际,所以不能算是初期的语言形式。人们普遍认为,婴儿出生后大约3个月起就会以发声为乐趣。渐渐地,到了6个月,便能发出些咿呀学语的声音。他们先是自我模仿,然后逐渐有意识地模仿别人的说话或声音,问题是这种模仿到了什么程度可以算是讲话了。整段的意思围绕着婴儿学会说话的发展过程而展开。所以,本题的正确答案应是A。
