Some people believe that international sports create goodwill between the nations and that if countries play games together they will learn to live together. Others say that the opposite is true: that international competitions encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred. There is probably some truth in both arguments. ____1____ Not only was there the tragic incident involving the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruined by lesser incidents caused mainly by minor national competitions.

One country received its second-place medals with visible indignation (愤慨) after the hockey final. There had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey match, the loser's objection to the final decisions. ____2____ Their manager was very angry and he said, "This wasn't hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished." The president of the Federation said later that such behavior could result in the suspension (停赛) of the team for at least three years.

____3____ The game had ended in disturbance. It was thought at first that the United States had won, by a single point, but it was announced that there were three seconds still to play. A Russian player popped it into the basket. It was the first time the USA had ever lost an Olympic basketball match. ____4____ The American players then voted not to receive the silver medals.

____5____ The suggestion that athletes should compete as individuals, or in non-national teams, might be too much to hope for. But in the present organization of the Olympic there is far too much that encourages aggressive patriotism (爱国主义). (370)

A. It is believed that athletes come to the Olympic Games to compete for their countries.

B. Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport is played competitively rather than for the love of the game.

C. An appeal jury discussed the matter for four and a half hours before announcing that the result would stand.

D. They were sure that one of their goals should not have been disallowed and that their opponents' victory was unfair.

E. So judges were probably the result of the conflicts between the teams from different countries in Olympic ball games.

F. But in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sports encourage international brotherhood.

G. The American basketball team announced that they would not give up first place of Russia, after a disputable end to their competition.

Not long ago, people thought babies were not able to learn things阅读理解答案

Not long ago, people thought babies were not able to learn things until they were five or six months old. Yet doctors in the United States say babies begin learning on their first day of life. Scientists note that babies are strongly influenced by their environment. They say a baby will smile if her mother does somethin the baby likes. A baby learns to get the best care possible by smiling to please her mother or other caregiver. This is how babies learn to connect and communicate with other human beings.

One study shows that babies can learn before they are born. The researchers placed a tape recorder on the stomach of a pregnant (怀孕的)woman. Then, they played a recording of a short story. On the day the baby was born, the researchers attempted to find if he knew the sounds of the story repeated while in his mother. They did this by placing a device in the mouth of the newborn baby.

The baby would hear the story if he moved his mouth one way. If the baby moved his mouth the other way, would hear a different story. The researchers say the baby clearly liked the story he heard before he was born. They say the baby would move his mouth so he could hear the story again and again.

Another study shows how mothers can strongly influence social development and language skills in their children. Researchers studied the children from the age of one month to three years. The researchers attempted to measure the sensitivity of the mothers. The women were considered sensitive if they supported their children’s activities and did not interfere ( 干预)unnecessarily. They tested the children for thinking and language development when they were three years old. Also, the researchers observed the women for signs of depression.The children of depressed women did not do as well in tests as the children of women who did not suffer

from depression. The children of depressed women did poorly in tests of language skills and understanding what they hear.

These children also were less cooperative and had more problems dealing with other people. The researchers noted that the sensitivity of the mothers was important to the intelligence development of their children. Children did ter when their mothers were caring, even when they suffered from depression.

52.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the factor that influences intelligence development in babies

A. The environment.

B. Mother's sensitivity.

C. Their peers (同龄人)

D. Education before birth.

53.What is the purpose of the experiment in which newborn babies heard the stories

A. To prove that babies can learn before they are born.

B. To prove that babies can learn on the first day they are born.

C. To show mothers can strongly influence intelligence development in their babies.

D. To indicate early education has a deep effect on the babies' language skills.

54.Which group of children did the worst in tests of language skills

A. The children of depressed mothers who cared little for their children.

B. The children of women who did not suffer from depression.

C. The children of depressed but caring mothers.

D. Children with high communication abilities.

55.What is the main idea of the passage

A. Scientific findings about how babies develop before birth.

B. Scientific findings about how time has an effect on babies' intelligence.
