“Two books per visit per week,” said the unsmiling librarian as she handed a library card. Neither the limits nor her attitude   16   me, a 9 – year – old Jewish girl growing up in Berlin in the 1950s. I needed those visits. The books were filled with stories in which, however   17  things seemed, everything   18   well in the end,   19   justice, bravery, and wisdom –--- a striking contrast (對(duì)比) to my everyday experiences.

Thirty years later, I, a recent immigrant to the US with a daughter aged 13, stood in front of another librarian. This librarian was   20  .

“What did she say?” I asked my daughter, who already knew a little English and often   21  as my interpreter.

“She said ‘Can I help you?’”

“Ask if they have any books in   22  ,” I requested.

“No, they don’t.” translated my daughter.

While hunting for a job, I was told that the library needed people to   23   books. The interview was short –--- the job didn’t require much English, just a   24   of the alphabet. I started the next day. Every day, I handled hundreds of books whose meaning was   25   from me, mentally dividing them by size and color. One day, while shelving, I found English for Beginners and began studying it on my own.   26   English letters started forming words I could   27  , words combined into phrases, and –--- oh,   28  ! –-- I was reading. It was a slow process, supported by dictionaries and   29  by tears, but it was progress. Afterwards I got promoted to the front desk -----   30   books in and out and answering simple questions.

Every day I receive dozens of people. Sometimes I spot new immigrants. They come from all over the world, so they look different, but the hesitant expression on their faces and their   31   manners are similar. My heart goes out to them,   32   they are people like me. I fully understand the   33   roads on which they have stepped. “They’ve come to the right place,” I think to   34  . Then I smile and say – just the   35   a librarian said to me a long time ago –--- “Can I help you?”

It is, everyone agrees, a huge task that the child performs when he learns to speak, and the fact that he does so in so short a period of time challenges explanation.

Language learning begins with listening. Individual children vary greatly in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking and late starters are often long listeners. Most children will “obey” spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word obey is hardly accurate (精確) as a description of the eager and happy cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gestures and by making questioning noises.

Any attempt to trace (探察) the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves out to show joy, sadness, and so on. But since these cannot be said to show the baby’s intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new sounds. This self-imitation (自我模仿) leads on to imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as a speech.

1．The third paragraph is mainly about ____

       A．the development of babies’ early forms of language

B．the difficulties of babies in learning to speak

       C．babies’ strong desire to communicate

       D．babies’ intention to communicate

2．The author’s purpose in writing the second paragraph is to show that children ____.

A．usually obey without asking questions

       B．a(chǎn)re not active in the process of learning to speak

       C．a(chǎn)re born cooperative

       D．learn to speak by listening

3．From the passage we learn that ____.

       A．early starters can learn to speak within only six months

       B．children show a strong desire to communicate by making noises

       C．imitation plays an important role in learning to speak

       D．children have various difficulties in learning to speak

4．The best title for this passage would be ____.

       A．How Babies Learn to Speak    B．Early Forms of Language

       C．A Huge Task for Children       D．Noise Making and Language Learning
