Read the following passage and mark the letter (A, B, C or D) on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each for the questions

Children learn to construct language from those around them Until about the age of three,

children tend to learn to develop their language by modeling the speech of their parents, but from

that time on, peers have a growing influence as models for language development in children It

is easy to observe that, when adults and older children interact with younger children, they tend

to modify their language to improve children communication with younger children, and this modified language is called caretaker speech

Caretaker speech is used often quite unconsciously; few people actually study how to modify language when speaking to young children but, instead, without thinking, find ways to reduce the complexity of language in order to communicate effectively with young children A caretaker will unconsciously speak in one way with adults and in a very different way with young children Caretaker speech tends to be slower speech with short, simple words and sentences which are said in a higher-pitched voice with exaggerated inflections and many repetitions of essential information It is not limited to what is commonly called baby talk, which generally refers to the use of simplified, repeated syllable expressions, such as ma-ma, boo-boo, bye-bye, wa-wa, but also includes the simplified sentence structures repeated in sing-song inflections Examples of these are expressions such as “ say bye-bye” or “where’s da-da?”

Caretaker speech serves the very important function of allowing young children to acquire language more easily The higher-pitched voice and the exaggerated inflections tend to focus the small child on what the caretaker is saying, the simplified words and sentences make it easier for the small child to begin to comprehended, and the repetitions reinforce the child’s developing understanding Then, as a child’s speech develops, caretakers tend to adjust their language in the response to the improved language skills, again quite unconsciously Parents and older children regularly adjust their speed to a level that is slightly above that of a younger child; without studied recognition of what they are doing, these caretakers will speak in one way to a one-year-

ago and in a progressively more complex way as the child reaches the age of two or three

An important point to note is that the function covered by caretaker speech, that of

assisting a child to acquire language in small and simple steps, is an unconsciously used but extremely important part of the process of language acquisition and as such is quite universal It

is not merely a device used by English-speaking parents Studying cultures where children do not acquire language through caretaker speech is difficult because such cultures are not difficult to

find The question of why caretaker speech is universal is not clear understood; instead proponents on either side of the nature vs nature debate argue over whether caretaker speech is a natural function or a learned one Those who believe that caretaker speech is a natural and inherent function in humans believe that it is human nature for children to acquire language and for those around them to encourage their language acquisition naturally; the presence of a child

is itself a natural stimulus that increases the rate of caretaker speech develops through nurturing rather than nature argue that a person who is attempting to communicate with a child will learn

by trying out different ways of communicating to determine which is the most effective from the reactions to the communication attempts; apparent might, for example, learn to use speech with exaggerated inflections with a small child because the exaggerated inflections do a better job of attracting the child’s attention than do more subtle inflections Whether caretaker speech results from nature or nurture, it does play an important and universal role in child language acquisition

Question 36: According to paragraph 1, children over the age of three

Read the following passage and mark the letter (A, B, C or D) on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each for the questions

Although noise, commonly defined as unwanted sound, is a widely recognized form of pollution, it is very difficult to measure because the discomfort experienced by different individuals is highly subjective and, therefore, variable Exposure to lower levels of noise may

be slightly irritating, whereas exposure to higher levels may actually cause hearing loss

Particularly in congested urban areas, the noise produced as a by product of our advancing

technology causes physical and psychological harm, and detracts from the quality of life for

those who are exposed to it

Unlike the eyes, which can be covered by the eyelids against strong light, the ear has no lid, and is, therefore, always open and vulnerable; noise penetrates without protection

Noise causes effects that the hearer cannot control and to which the body never becomes accustomed Loud noises instinctively signal danger to any organism with a hearing mechanism, including human beings In response, heartbeat and respiration accelerate, blood vessels constrict, the skin pales, and muscles tense In fact, there is a general increase in functioning brought about by the flow of adrenaline released in response to fear, and some of these responses persist even longer than the noise, occasionally as long as thirty minutes after the sound has ceased

Because noise is unavoidable in a complex, industrial society, we are constantly responding in the same way that we would respond to danger Recently, researchers have concluded that noise and our response may be much more than an annoyance It may be a serious threat to physical and psychological health and well-being, causing damage not only to the ear and brain but also to the heart and stomach We have long known that hearing loss is America’s number one nonfatal health problem, but now we are learning that some of us with heart disease and ulcers may be victims of noise as well Fetuses exposed to noise tend to be overactive, they cry easily, and they are more sensitive to gastrointestinal problems after birth In addition, the

psychic effect of noise is very important Nervousness, irritability, tension, and anxiety increase, affecting the quality of rest during sleep, and the efficiency of activities during waking hours, as well as the way that we interact with each other

Question 43: Which of the following is the author’s main point?

A Noise may pose a serious threat to our physical and psychological health

B Loud noises signal danger

C Hearing loss is America’s number one nonfatal health problem

D The ear is not like the eye

Question 44: According to the passage, what is noise?

A Unwanted sound B A by-product of technology

C Physical and psychological harm D Congestion

Question 45: Why is noise difficult to measure?

A It causes hearing loss

B All people do not respond to it in the same way

C It is unwanted

D People become accustomed to it

Question 46: The word "congested" in paragraph 1 could best be replaced by

Question 47: It can be inferred from the passage that the eye

A responds to fear B enjoys greater protection than the ear

C increases functions D is damaged by noise

Question 48: According to the passage, people respond to loud noises in the same way that they

respond to

Question 50: With which of the following statements would the author most probably agree?
