But,one day,Chip threw a chair at his teacher and was sent to my office.I asked him what made him do this.He replied that his teacher hated him.He felt there was no way to ever get her to like him.I asked him if he would tell his teacher this.He nodded,and we called her into my office. When the teacher came, He then said that he knew he was a very,very bad boy,and he didn't think anyone could ever like him.His teacher listened to him with heartfelt compassion.Then she gave him a big warm hug,telling him she didn't hate him at all and,actually, she cared very much about him.Only sometimes Chip's behavior really scared her.It was clear to both Chip and me that she really meant it. I put my left arm on his shoulders and the right hand on his heart.I told him how wonderful and lovely I saw him to be.I praised how special and brave he was to express his hurt feelings. f As I was speaking to him,his whole body came to rest on my right hand next to his heart. It was a moment in time unlike anything I had experienced before.From then on,I'm pleased to see his behavior improved through the rest of school years.

D Have you noticed that people speak differently to babies compared to adults?Caregivers, especially mothers,change their speech when talking to young children.How?Their speech includes higher pitch(音高)and a wider pitch range(范围),They use shorter sentences and repeat words more often.You can think of it as baby talk.Researchers have recently discovered that dolphins also use baby talk with their babies. The research team recorded sounds of 19 mother dolphins living in the Sarasota Bay area.The sounds of the same female dolphins were compared when they were with and without their babies.Chart 1 shows the sound of a female dolphin without her baby.The researchers found that when dolphins were with their babies,dolphin mothers had a wider range of frequencies (of the sound-the maximum )frequencies were higher and the lowest frequencies were lower. The findings mirror the way that humans change the speech when speaking to babies. Dolphin baby talk may have a similar purpose to human"baby talk"it may help babies learn how to phonate.We humans don't only use baby talk with little babies,but with the children who are still learning to speak.As a result,our children are able to talk.That's exactly what happens to dolphins.The changes in speech don't just happen when dolphin mothers stay with very young babies,,but also between mothers and babies that are closer to“toddler(学步的幼儿)”age. Another possible reason for using specific pitch is to catch the children's attention.It's really important for a young dolphin to know "Oh,Mom is talking to me now." The research about baby talk in dolphins reminds us how important it is in humans. Whenever we speak with a young child,how we say things could be as important as what we say. 27.What's one of the features of baby talk according to the first paragraph? A.Lower pitch. B.Longer sentences. C.A smaller pitch range. D.More sare words. 28.Which chart shows the sound that dolphin mothers make when they're with babies? 竹c河件11而 29.ha does the underlined word"phonate"mean in Paragraph 3? A.Produce the sound B.Understand baby talk. C.Change the speech. D.Catch people's attention. 30.Why does the writer write this passage? A.To help people understand the sounds made by dolphins. B.To ask people to build a good relationship with dolphins. remind people to communicate with children more often. D.To let people be careful with the way of talking with children. 第二节任务型阅读(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分) 阅读下面材料,从方框中所给的AE五个选项中选出正确选项(其中一项是多余选 项),将其序号填入第31~34小题,并回答第35小题。注意:请将第35小题的答案写在 非选择题部分的相应位置。 How many times have we told ourselves"I'm going to study from now on."or"I'm going to do more English exercises to improve myself next week."?And soon,all our decisions are gone.
