Passage 1
Today’s adults grew up in schools designed to sort us into the various segments of our social and economic system. The amount of time available to learn was fixed: one year per grade. The amount learned by the end of that time was free to vary: some of us learned a great deal; some, very little. As we advanced through the grades, those who had learned a great deal in previous grades continued to build on those foundations. Those who had failed to master the early prerequisites with-in the allotted time failed to learn that which followed. After 12 or 13 years of cumulative treatment of this kind, we were, in effect, spread along an achievement continuum that was ultimately reflected in each student’s rank in class upon graduation.
From the very earliest grades, some students learned a great deal very quickly and consistently scored high on assessments. The emotional effect of this was to help them to see themselves as capable learners, and so these students became increasingly confident in school. That confidence gave them the inner emotional strength to take the risk of striving for more success because they believed that success was within their reach. Driven forward by this optimism, these students continued to try hard, and that effort continued to result in success for them. They became the academic and emotional winners. Notice that the trigger for their emotional strength and their learning success was their perception of their success on formal and informal assessments.
But there were other students who didn’t fare so well. They scored very low on tests, beginning in the earliest grades. The emotional effect was to cause them to question their own capabilities as learners. They began to lose confidence, which, in turn, deprived them of the emotional reserves needed to continue to take risks. As their motivation warned, of course, their performance plummeted. These students embarked on what they believed to be an irreversible slide toward inevitable failure and lost hope. Once again, the emotional trigger for their decision not to try was their perception of their performance on assessments.
Consider the reality-indeed, the paradox-of the schools in which we were reared. If some students worked hard and learned a lot, that was a positive result, and they would finish high in the rank order. But if some students gave up in hopeless failure, that was an acceptable result, too, because they would occupy places very low in the rank order. Their achievement results fed into the implicit mission of schools: the greater the spread of achievement among students, the more it reinforced the rank order. This is why, if some students gave up and stopped trying (even dropped out of school). that was regarded as the student’s problem, not the teacher’s or the school’s.
Once again, please notice who is using test results to decide whether to strive for excellence or give up in hopelessness. The “data-based decision makers” in this process are students themselves. Students are deciding whether success is within or beyond reach, whether the learning is worth the required effort, and so whether to try or not. The critical emotions underpinning the decision making porocess include anxiety, fear of failure, uncertainty, and unwillingness to take risks-all triggered by students’ perceptions of their own capabilities as reflected in assessment results.
Some students responded to the demands of such environments by working hard and learning a great deal. Others controlled their anxiety by giving up and not caring. The result for them is exactly the opposite of the one society wants. Instead of leaving no child behind, these practices, in effect, drove down the achievement of at least as many students as they successfully elevated. And the evidence suggests that the downside victims are more frequently members of particular socioeconomic and ethnic minoritie.
21. What has made students spread along an achievement continuum according to the passage? ( ) A. The allotted time to learn.
B. Social and economic system.
C. The early prerequisites students mastered.
D. Performance on formal and informal assessments.
22. What is the authors attitude towards the old mission of assessment? ( ) A. Supportive.

Passage 2
Several research teams have found that newborns prefer their mothers’ voices over those of other people. Now a team of scientists has gone an intriguing step further: they have found that newborns cry in their native language. “We have provided evidence that language begins with the very first cry melodies,” says Kathleen Wermke of the University of Würzburg, Germany, who led the research.
“The dramatic finding of this study is that not only are newborns capable of producing different cry melodies, but they prefer to produce those melody patterns that are typical for the ambient language they have heard during their fetal life, within the last trimester,” said Wermke. “Contrary to orthodox interpretations, these data support the importance of human infants’ crying for seeding language development.”
It had been thought that babies’ cries are constrained by their breathing patterns and respiratory apparatus, in which case a crying baby would sound like a crying baby no matter what the culture is, since babies are anatomically identical. “The prevailing opinion used to be that newborns could not actively influence their production of sound,” says Wermke. This study refutes that claim: since babies cry in different languages, they must have some control (presumably unconscious) over what they sound like rather than being constrained by the acoustical properties of their lungs, throat, mouth, and larynx. If respiration alone dictated what a cry sounded like, all babies would cry with a falling-pitch pattern, since that’s what happens as you run out of breath and air pressure on the throat’s sound-making machinery decreases. French babies apparently didn’t get that memo. “German and French infants produce different types of cries, even though they share the same physiology,” the scientists point out. “The French newborns produce ‘nonphysiological’ rising patterns,” showing that the sound of their cries is under their control.
Although phonemes-speech sounds such as “ki” or “sh” don’t cross the abdominal barrier and reach the fetus, so-called prosodic characteristics of speech do. These are the variations in pitch, rhythm, and intensity that characterize each language. Just as newborns remember and prefer actual songs that they heard in utero, it seems, so they remember and prefer both the sound of mom’s voice and the melodic signature of her language.
The idea of the study wasn’t to make the sound of a screaming baby more interesting to listeners-good luck with that-but to explore how babies acquire speech. That acquisition, it is now clear, begins months before birth, probably in the third trimester. Newborns “not only have memorized the main intonation patterns of their respective surrounding language but are also able to reproduce these patterns in their own [sound] production,” conclude the scientists. Newborns’ “cries are already tuned toward their native language,” giving them a head start on sounding French or German (or, presumably, English or American or Chinese or anything else: the scientists are collecting cries from more languages). This is likely part of the explanation for how babies develop spoken language quickly and seemingly without effort. Sure, we may come into the world wired for language (thank you, Noam Chomsky), but we also benefit from the environmental exposure that tells us which language.
Until this study, scientists thought that babies became capable of vocal imitation no earlier than 12 weeks of age. that’s when infants listening to an adult speaker producing vowels can parrot the sound. But that’s the beginning of true speech. It’s sort of amazing that it took this long for scientists to realize that if they want to see what sounds babies can perceive, remember, and play back, they should look at the sound babies produce best. So let the little angel cry: she’s practicing to acquire language. 26. What does Kathleen wermke’s research indicate? ( ) A. Babies are unable to do vocal imitation.
B. Babies’ cries could be their early language acquisition.
C. Babies start speech acquisition months after their birth.
D. A crying baby is a crying baby no matter what the culture is.
27. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “ambient” in Paragraph 2?
( )
A. Surrounding.
B. Familiar.
C. Foreign.
D. Local.
28. Why do German and French babies produce different types of cries according to the research?
( )
A. Because they can control what they hear.
B. Because they can control their different breathing patterns.
C. Because they don’t share the same physiological structure.
D. Because they can somehow control their sound production.
29. When does language acquisition begin according to the research? )
A. It begins with the birth of a baby
B. It begins before the birth of a baby.
C. It begins when a baby starts imitating adults’ speech.
D. It begins with a baby’s cry melodies typical of its mother tongue.
30. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? ( )
A. Babies’cries have long been the concerns of scientists.
B. Babies start their speech acquisition at the age of three months.
C. Studying babies’ cries helps us understand their speech perception.
D. Babies’ true speech, rather than their cries, should be the focus of study.
