15、s 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 child
16、ren 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.
17、 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(痛苦
18、), sociability, and so on. But since these cannot be said to show the babys 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
19、 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. 26 By “. challenges explanation“ (the end of Para.1) the author means that _. （ A） no explanation is necessary for such an obvious phenomenon （ B） no ex

22、stening 29 From the passage we learn that _. （ A） early starters can learn to speak within only six months （ B） children show a strong desire to communicate by making noises （ C） imitation plays an important role in learning to speak （ D） children have various difficulties in learning to speak 30 Th
