For each question, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Yo
29、u should decide on the best choice, then mark the corresponding letter on the answer sheet with a single line through the centre. The age at which young children begin to make moral discriminations about harmful actions committed against themselves or others has been the focus of recent research int
30、o the moral development of children. Until recently, child psychologists supported pioneer developmentalist Jean Piaget in his hypothesis that because of their immaturity, children under age seven do not take into account the intentions of a person committing accidental or deliberate harm, but rathe
31、r simply assign punishment for transgressions on the basis of the magnitude of the negative consequences caused. According to Piaget, children under age seven occupy the first stage of moral development, which is characterized by moral absolutism (rules made by authorities must be obeyed) and immine
32、nt justice (if rules are broken, punishment will be meted out). Until young children mature, their moral judgments are based entirely on the effect rather than the cause of a transgression. However, in recent research, Keasey found that six-year-old children not only distinguish between accidental a
33、nd intentional harm, but also judge intentional harm as naughtier, regardless of the amount of damage produced. Both of these findings seem to indicate that children, at an earlier age than Piaget claimed, advance into the second stage of moral development, moral autonomy, in which they accept socia
34、l rules but view them as more arbitrary than do children in the first stage. Keaseys research raises two key questions for developmental psychologists about children under age seven: do they recognize justifications for harmful actions, and do they make distinctions between harmful acts that are pre
35、ventable and those acts that have unforeseen harmful consequences? Studies indicate that justifications excusing harmful actions might include public duty, self-defense, and provocation. For example, Nesdale and Rule concluded that children were capable of considering whether or not an aggressors ac
36、tion was justified by public duty: five year olds reacted very differently to “Bonnie wrecks Anns pretend house“ depending on whether Bonnie did it “so somebody wont fall over it“ or because Bonnie wanted “to make Ann feel bad“. Thus, a child of five begins to understand that certain harmful actions
37、, though intentional, can be justified; the constraints of moral absolutism no longer solely guide their judgments. Psychologists have determined that during kindergarten children learn to make subtle distinctions involving harm. Darley observed that among-acts involving unintentional harm, six-year
38、-old children just entering kindergarten could not differentiate between foreseeable, and thus preventable, harm and unforeseeable harm for which the perpetrator cannot be blamed. Seven months later, however, Darley found that these same children could make both distinctions, thus demonstrating that
39、 they had become morally autonomous.

44、.(5).According to the passage, the research of Nesdale and Rule suggests which of the following about five-year-old children?（分数：1.00）A.Their reactions to intentional and accidental harm determine the severity of the punishments they assign.B.They, as perpetrators of harmful acts, disregard the feel
45、ings of the children they harm.C.They take into account the motivations of actions when judging the behavior of other children.D.They view public duty as a justification for accidental, but not intentional, harm.BSection B/BIn this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passag
46、e carefully and complete the summary below by choosing no more than three words from the passage. Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet. Mars with its orange-red colour has fascinated people since ancient times. Its name derives from the Roman god of war. The planet is similar to Earth i
47、n a number of ways. For example, a day on Mars is about the same length as a day on Earth. Also the tilt of Mars axis is about the same as that of Earth so it has similar seasons. However, temperatures are much lower than on Earthbelow the freezing temperature of water even in summer with average da
48、ily temperatures of about 60 degrees Celsius. The cold is due to the lack of heating from the Sun and the lack of greenhouse warming from gases in the thin atmosphere. What can you see?Mars will be a very prominent object in the night sky in August and September. Not only will it be the brightest object apart from the moon, but its reddish colour will make it easy to find. In July Mars was rising in the ea
