Is language, like food, a basic human need without which a child at a critical period of life can be starved and damaged? Judging from the drastic experiment of Frederic I in the thirteenth century, it may be. 【R1】______
All the infants died before the first year. But clearly there was more than lack of language here.【R2】______Without good mothering, in the first year of life especially, the capacity to survive is seriously affected.
Today no such severe lack exists as that ordered by Frederick.【R3】______Most often the reason for this is that the mother is insensitive to the signals of the infant, whose brain is programmed to learn language rapidly. If these sensitive periods are neglected, the ideal time for acquiring skills passes and they might never be learned so easily again. 【R4】______
Experts suggest that speech stages are reached in a fixed sequence and at a constant age.【R5】______At twelve weeks a baby smiles and makes vowel-like sounds; at twelve months he can speak simple words and understand simple commands; at eighteen months he has a vocabulary of three to five words. 【R6】______
Recent evidence suggests that an infant is born with the capacity to speak. What is special about man’s brain, compared with that of the monkey, is the complex system which enables a child to connect the sight and feel of, say, a toy-bear with the sound pattern "toy bear".【R7】______
But speech has to be induced, and this depends on interaction between the mother and the child, where the mother recognizes the signals in the child’s babbling, grasping and smiling, and responds to them. Insensitivity of the mother to these signals dulls the interaction because the child gets discouraged and sends out only the obvious signals. 【R8】______
A. What was missing was good mothering.
B. A bird learns to sing and to fly at the right time, but the process is slow and hard once the critical stage has passed.
C. Hoping to discover what language a child would speak if he heard no mother tongue, he told the nurses to keep silent.
D. But there are cases where speech has started late in a child who eventually turns out to be of high IQ.
E. And even more incredible is the young brain’s ability to pick out an order in language from the mixture of sound around him, to analyze, to combine and recombine the parts of a language in new ways.
F. Sensitivity to the child’s non-verbal signals is essential to the growth and development of language.
G. At three he knows about 1,000 words which he can put into sentences, and at four his language differs from that of his parents in style rather than grammar.
H. Nevertheless, some children are still backward in speaking.
【R3】
选项
答案
H
解析
第3段开头提到,如今不再有如此残忍的事情出现了,其言下之意是孩子们应该能够有条件学习语言,句H:“然而,一些孩子在掌握语言方面仍然滞后。”与之形成转折关系,句H陈述一个事实,后文是对这一现象的解释,是因为做妈妈的对婴儿学习语言的信号不敏感。应选H。
