Our everyday speech is made up in large part of words like probably, many, soon,
28、 great, little. What do these words mean Such verbal expression is not necessarily to be criticized. Indeed, it has a value just because it allows us to express judgments when a precise quantitative statement is out of the question. We have been trying to pin down by experiments what people mean by
29、these expressions in specific contexts, and how the meanings change with age. For instance, a subject is told “There are many trees in the park” and is asked to say what number the word many mean to him. Or a child is invited to take “some” sweets from a bowl and we then count how many he has taken.
30、 We compare the number he takes when he is alone with the number when one or more other children are present and are to take some sweets after him, or with the number he takes when told to give “some” sweets to another child. First, we find that the number depends, of course, on the items involved.
31、To most people some friends means about five, while some trees means about twenty. However, unrelated areas sometimes show parallel values. For instance, the language of probability seems to mean about the same thing in predictions about the weather and about politics: the expression “is certain to”
32、 (rain, or be elected) signifies to the average person about a 70 percent chance; “is likely to”, about a 60 percent chance; “probably will” about 55 percent. Secondly, the size of the population of items influences the value assigned to an expression. Thus, if we tell a subject to take “a few” or “
33、 a lot of” glass balls from a box, he will take more if the box contains a large number of glass balls than if it has a small number. But not proportionately more: if we increase the number of glass balls eight times, the subject takes only half as large a percentage of the total. Thirdly, there is
34、a marked change with age. Among children between six and fourteen years old, the older the child, the fewer glass balls he will take. But the difference between a lot and a few widens with age. This age effect is so consistent that it might be used as a test of intelligence. 【小题 1】 Whats the right a
35、ttitude towards the words like probably, many, soon A They are inaccurate and we should avoid them. B They are necessary since we cannot be always precise. C They should be criticized because there are too many of them. D Their value is not yet clear since we dont know their meaning. 【小题 2】 Why do w
36、e do experiments with the words “many” and “some” A To prove people are insensitive to these words. B To prove the words dominate our everyday speech. C To find out how the meanings vary with age and contexts. D To find out whether the words can mean a precise quantity. 【小题 3】 Which of the expressio
37、ns means a larger chance in weather broadcast A Possible B Probable C Be likely to D Be certain to 【小题 4】 Which of the following will least definitely influence the number of items a kid takes out of a box when he is invited to take “some” A Whether the quantity of items is large or small. B Whether
38、 the items are candies or toys. C Whether the kid is a toddler or a youngster. D Whether the kid is alone or accompanied by other children. 【小题 5】 What will tell us about the intelligence of a child A The consistency of picking up a certain glass ball. B How many glass balls he will take when hes as
39、ked to. C The difference between a lot and a few when he takes glass balls. D Whether there are marked changes in his first pick and second one. 答案： 【小题 1】 B 【小题 2】 C 【小题 3】 D 【小题 4】 D 【小题 5】 C 试题分析： 【小题 1】 B 推断题。由第一段最后一句 Indeed, it has a value just because it allows us to express judgments when a p

43、ng every feature that most people find unpleasant. This is unfortunate because it degrades a worthwhile literary endeavor. Instead, the basic interest of science fiction lies in the relation between man and his technology and between man and the universe. Science fiction is a literature of change an
44、d a literature of the future, and the aspects of human life that it considers make it well worth reading and studying for no other literary form does quite the same things. What is science fiction To begin, the following definition should be helpful: science fiction is a literary subgenre which post
45、ulates(以 为前提 ) a change (for human beings) from conditions as we know them and follows the implications of these changes to a conclusion. The first point that science fiction is a literary subgenre is a very important one, but one which is often overlooked. Specifically, science fiction is either a
46、short story or a novel. There are only a few dramas which could be called science fiction; the body of poetry that might be labeled science fiction is only slightly larger. To say that science fiction is a subgenre of prose fiction(小说 ) is to say that it has all the basic characteristics and serves
47、the same basic functions in much the same way as prose fiction in general, that is, it shares a great deal with all other novels and short stories. Everything that can be said about prose fiction, in general, applies to science fiction. Every piece of science fiction, whether short story or novel, m
48、ust have a narrator, a story, a plot, characters, setting, and language. The themes of science fiction are concerned with interpreting mans nature and experience around him. Themes in science fiction are constructed and presented in exactly the same ways that themes are dealt with in any other kind
49、of fiction. They are the result to a particular combination of a narrator, story, plot, character, setting, and language. In short, the reasons for reading and enjoying science fiction, and the ways of studying and analyzing it, are basically the same as they would be for any other story or novel. 【小题 1】 From the first paragraph, we can
