1.Animals other than humans have not developed communications comparable to human language. But is it possible that other animals have the capacity to learn a language if they are adequately taught? Obviously, this is a fascination notion. The idea of communicating directly with another species has long been a part of human folklore and children’s fantasies. But on a scientific level, the question of whether animals can learn a language is important primarily because it relates to the controversy()between the cognitive and the learning approaches to language. If language is dependent on and is actually an outgrowth of the intellectual structure of the human mind, there is the strong supposition that only humans are capable of using language. Therefore, Noam Chomsky and other psycholinguists have argued that only humans can learn a language, while most behaviorists feel that with sufficient patience it should be possible to teach an animal some sort of language. Although the two schools of thought clearly differ on this point, it is not really a crucial test of the two theories. If a chimpanzee can master a simple language all it would mean is that the chimp’s intellectual capacity and brain structure are more similar to ours than we thought. It would not necessarily imply that our intellectual structure is unimportant in our own mastery of language. Thus, teaching an animal language is an impressive demonstration of the power of learning techniques, but it is not evidence that language is developed entirely through learning.On the other hand, the question of whether other animals can learn a language is fascination in its own right, aside from its value as a test of the two theories of language development. Accordingly, whatever one’s position on the theoretical dispute, we must consider training an animal to use language a dramatic accomplishment.36.Which of the following statements is the view of psycholinguists?A. The cognitive view of language learning says that only human beings can learn language because it is an outgrowth of the structure of the human mind.B. Other animals simply could master a language.C. The animals intellectual capacity is much better than human beings.D.

  • 第1题:

    At that time we did not fully grasp the significance of what had happened.

    A:give
    B:attach
    C:lose
    D:understand

    答案:D
    解析:
    本句意思:在那时候,我们还没有完全理解所发生事情的意义。grasp在此处意为“理 解”,与understand(理解)意思相同。give给;attach附上;lose失去。

    Can you follow the plot so far?

    A:change
    B:investigate
    C:write
    D:understand

    答案:D
    解析:
    到目前为止,你能听懂情节吗?understand“听懂,理解”,例如:It's so hard that I can't understand it.这个太难了,我不明白。change“改变”,例如:He has changed so much that I can't recognize him.他变得我都认不出来了。investigate“调查”,例如:I can not judge before I investigate.我只有调查后才能判断。write“写作,写字”,例如:I was busy writing a letter when he came in.他进来时我正忙着写信。只有understand意思上和follow最接近。

    答案:C
    解析:
    本题考察动词的时态和语态,题目意为“没有比融化中的南极和北极更能明显反映人为引起气候变化这一事实的地方了。”由于句子是由nowhere此类有否定意思开头的,需要使用部分倒装。空格处意思为“人为引起,人为造成”,drive的过去分词形式driven这里作名词使用,表被动,和human组成联合短语共同作为定语修饰后面的内容。
