22、less money than usual，you may have to tighten your belt.I always praise people who can save their money and not spend too much.I really take my hat off to them.Yet，when it comes to my own money，I spend it at the drop of a hat，which means I instantly spend it.Boots are a heavy or strong kind of shoes

27、s important as talking to them.The effect of a conversation between a child and an adult is abou t six times as great as the effect of adult speech input (输入) alone，the researchers found.“Adults speaking to children helps language develop，but what matters much more is the interaction， ”said the stud
28、ys lead author， Frederick Zimmerman，an associate professor in the School of Public Health at the University of California，Los Angeles.The researchers also found that TV viewing didnt have much of an effectpositively or negativelyas long as it wasnt displacing conversations between an adult and a chi
29、ld.The UCLA study included 275 families with children between 2 months and 48 months old.They represented a variety of incomes and education.The researchers found that， in an average day，children hear about 13,000 spoken words from adults and participated in about 400 adultchild conversations a day.
30、Assessed separately，factors po sitively associated with language development included each additional 100 conversations a day and each 1,000 word increase in the number of words spoken by adults and heard by children.When looked at alone，TV was negatively associated with language development.But，whe
31、n the three factors were analyzed together，the only one that stood out was conversation between adults and children.“The more a child speaks and interacts with an adult，the better idea a parent has about where the child is， ” Zimmerman said.“Although its mostly done unconsciously，parents will provid
32、e feedback and correct mistakes.Theyll also tailor their speech to the child.Parents can give a child words by talking to them about what theyre doing，such as， “Im putting on your pajamas now.But give your child the opportunity to talk，hopefully without the rest of the noise in the environment， ”she

37、evelopmentDThere are many differences between British English and American English.I used to teach a course about the differences between the two.We speak English on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean but we have many differences in our common language.We have examples of the same words having very d
38、ifferent meanings，differing spellings of the same words as well as completely different words for the same things.Here are some examples.A cookie in the US is called a biscuit in the UK.A biscuit in the US is a small cake in the UK.Crisps in the UK，are known as chips，but we British people eat a plat
39、e of chips that you call fries in the US.In the UK，a pie can be made from either meat or fruit，while in the US pies are normally made from fruit；pot pies are made from meat.Most things are measured in grams and kilograms in the US，not pounds and ounces.One very obvious(明显的)difference is the side of
40、the road we each choose to drive on.Petrol in the UK is gas in the US.The place where we fill up our cars，in the UK，is a garage；while in the US， its a gas station.The term garage is also used as a place to store your car next to or close by your house.In the UK we call a lorry what is known as a tru

42、With so many differences，no wonder it s hard to understand each other well.68The passage is mainly about the differences between British English and American English in_.Avocabulary Bgrammar Csound Dspelling69Its implied in the passage that the author may be_.Aa driver from the USBa cook from the US
43、Ca teacher from the UKDa gas station worker from the UK70In the authors opinion，_.Alanguage differences dont affect understandingBthe same words in the two different types of English may have different spellingsCthere will be fewer differences between American and British English in the futureDit is
44、 impossible that some Americans get off on the wrong floor in British hotels71What can we learn from the passage?A “Elevator”is commonly used in the UK.BPies mean the same thing in the UK and the US.CIn the UK，things are measured in pounds and ounces. DBritish and American people drive on the same s
45、ide of the road.EIs there anything more important than health？I dont think so.You cant be good at your studies or work when you are ill.If you have a headache，or a bad cough，if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold，I think you should go to the doctor.The doctor will examine your throat，feel
46、 your pulse，take your temperature，sound your heart and lungs.After that he will advise some treatment，or some medicine.The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.Speaking of doctors advice，I cant help telling you a funny story.
