2014高考英语阅读理解全程基础训练（12）及答案 阅读理解-—-(2013·全国Ⅰ,B） The baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital。 She is quiet but alert (警觉)。 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? Not again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly 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. 文章大意:本文对刚出生一天的孩子做实验，看他们的视觉和听觉反应。 5 ．The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is related to the babys________。 A ．sense of hearing B ．sense of sight C ．sense of touch D ．sense of smell 答案:B　细节理解题，根据第一段内容可知，研究者把带有两个黑点和三个黑点的卡片交换放于婴儿面 前，看他有何变化，此处是在研究婴儿的视觉。 6 ．Babies are sensitive to the change in ________。 A ．the size of cards B ．the colour of pictures C ．the shape of patterns D ．the number of objects 答案:
