Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it. She stares at it carefully. A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze(凝视）starts to lose its focus-until a third, with three black spots, is presented. Her gaze returns: she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange, and so on),changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly(随意地）on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise(同样地）when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.【4】The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is related to the baby's .A. sense of hearingB. sense of sightC. sense of touchD. sense of smell【5】Babies are sensitive to the change in .A. the size of cardsB. the colour of picturesC. the shape of patternsD. the number of objects【6】Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?A. To reduce the difficulty of the experiment.B. To see how babies recognize sounds.C. To carry their experiment further.D. To keep the babies'interest.【7】Where does this text probably come from?A. Science fiction.B. Children's literature.C. An advertisement.D. A science report.C（2018浙江温州九校高一第二学期期中联考）Sure, it's good to get along with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.And yes, it's good to get along with your teacher because, in general, it's smart to learn how to understand the different types of people you'll meet throughout your life.“But really, there's one super-important reason why you should get along with your teacher. When you do, learning bursts right open, "says Evelyn Vuko, a longtime teacher who writes an education column(专栏)called“Teacher Says" for The Washington Post newspaper.In fact, kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more, but are more comfortable when asking questions and getting extra help.

You're like a sponge(海绵)，able to absorb lots of new and exciting information. On top of that, you're able to think about all this information in new ways. Your teacher knows that, and, in most cases, is very excited to be the person who's giving you all that material and helping you make it. Remember, teachers are people, too, and theyfeel great if you're open to what they're teaching you. That's why they wanted to be teachers!Some kids may be able to learn in any situation, whether they like the teacher or not. But most kids are sensitive to the way they get along with the teacher, and if things aren't going well, they won't learn as well and won't enjoy being in class.【8】In the passage, the author mainly talks about .A. how to make the time in the classroom more pleasantB. how much the students are expected of to get along with teachersC. the importance of a good relationship with teachersD. how to get along well with others【9】The underlined part “learning bursts right open”in the third paragraph probably means .A. there'll be no problems at all with learningB. there'll be more problems with learningC. you find an opening for learningD. learning becomes easier for you at once【10】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.
