producing a population increase of nearly fifteen percent in the five years from 1951 to 1956 This rate of increase had been exceeded only once before settle Undoubtedly, the good economic conditions of
the 1950’s supported a growth in the population, but the expansion also derived from a frend toward
Trang 4After the peak year of 1957, the birth rate in Canada began to decline It continued falling until in 1966 it stood at the lowest level in 25 years Partly this decline reflected the low level of births during the depression and the war, but it was also caused by changes in Canadian society Young people were staying at school longer; more women were working; young married couples were buying automobiles or houses before starting families; rising living standards were cutting down the size of families.It appeared that Canada was once more falling in step with the trend toward smaller families that had occurred all through the Western world since the time of the Industrial Revolution
Although the growth in Canada’s population had slowed down by 1966 (the increase in the first half of the 1960’s was only nine percent), another large population wave was coming over the horizon It would be composed of the children who were born during the period of the high birth rate prior to

Ethology is concerned with the study of adaptive, or survival, value of behavior and its Evolutionary history Ethological theory began to be applied to research on children in the1960’s but has become even more influential today The origins of ethology can be traced to the work of Darwin Its modern foundations were laid by two European zoologists, Konrad Lorenz and Niko Tinbergen
Watching the behaviors diverse animal species in their natural habitats, Lorenz, and Tinbergen
observed behavior patterns that promote survival The most well-known of these is imprinting, the
Trang 5period of development If the mother goose is not present during this time, but an object resembling her in important features is, young goslings may imprint on it instead Observations of imprinting led
to major concept that has been applied in child development” the critical period It refers to a limited times span during which the child is biologically prepared to acquire certain adaptive behaviors but
needs the support of suitably stimulating environment Many researchers have conducted studies to find out whether complex cognitive and social behaviors must be learned during restricted time periods for example, if children are deprived of adequate food or physical and social stimulation during the early years of life, will their intelligence be permanently impaired? If language is not
mastered during the preschool years, is the child’s capacity to acquire it reduced?
Inspired by observations of imprinting, in 1969 the British psychoanalyst John Bowlby applied ethological theory to the understanding of the relationship between an infant and its parents He argued that attachment behaviors of babies, such as smiling, babbling, grasping, and crying, are built-in social signals that encourage the parents to approach, care for, and interact with the baby By keeping a
parent near, these behaviors help ensure that the baby will be fed, protected from danger, and provided
with the stimulation and affection necessary for healthy growth The development of attachment in human infants is a lengthy process involving changes in psychological structures that lead to a deep affectional tie between parent and baby

B Darwin’s work provided the basis for ethology
C Darwin was the professor who taught Lorenz and Tinbergen D Darwin improved on the original principles of ethology

A institutions B inventions C discoveries D researches
Question 57: The word “ensures” in line 7 is closest in meaning to
A assumes B guarantees C proves D teaches
Question 58: According to the passage, if a mother goose is not present during the time period when imprinting takes place, which of the following will most likely occur?
A The mother will later imprint on the gosling B The gosling may not find a mate when it matures C The gosling will not imprint on any object D The gosling may imprint on another object
Question 59: The word “He” in line 19 refers to
A an infant B a psychoanalyst C parent D a baby
Question 60: The word “acquire” in line 12 is closest in meaning to
A gain B reach C have D work
Question 61: The author mentions all of the following as attachment behaviors of human infants EXCEPT
A smiling B crying C eating D grasping
Question 62: According to the passage, attachment behaviors of infants are intended to A prepare the infant to cope with separation
B provide the infant with a means of self-stimulation
C allow the infant to become imprinted on objects that resemble the parent D get the physical, emotional and social needs of the infant met
Question 63: The phrase “affectional tie” in line 24 is closest in meaning to
A behavioral change B psychological need
Trang 6Question 64: It can be inferred from the passage that ethological theory assumes that A failure to imprint has no influence on intelligence
