your tragedies. I have a large collection of newspaper photographs of my students. Although I haven't appeared in person, I have attended your college graduations, weddings and even the births of your children, in my imagination.”

Although toys' packaging says it's educational, it doesn't make it so. That's the finding from a new study in JAMA Pediatrics (儿科) that found some toys being marketed as language

高一学科训练 英语第 5页 共 8 页

promoters got in the way of learning.

Research shows that for kids to understand, speak and eventually read or write a language,they need to hear it—lots of it And it's never too early for parents and caregiver s to get talking.That explains the fast industry in talking electronic toys that claim to help kids learn language.

“We had a talking on farm-animal names and things,“Professor Anna Sosa says of the electronic toys.“We had a baby cell phone. And we had a baby laptop. So you open the cover and start pushing buttons, and it tells you things. The parent-child couples were asked to play separately with each type of to y over the course of three days.”

“When there's something else that's doing some talking, the parents seem to be sitting on the sidelines and letting the toy talk for them and respond for them,”Sosa says. “That's bad because the best way a toy can promote language in babies and kids is by exciting inter- action between parent and child. There's simply no evidence (证据) that a young child can learn language directly from a toy. It isn't responsive enough. It isn't social.”

As for the other toys, traditional blocks and puzzles stimulated more conversation than the electronic toys, and books outscored them all. But don't underestimate the humble block. While traditional toys fell short of books in interaction quantity, Sosa notes, they kept pace in terms of quality.

46. What is the finding of the research led by Professor Anna Sosa?

A. The toy industry is facing new challenges in marketing.

B. Kids should be taught to learn with toys as early as possible.

C. People might be misled by the statements of some toy makers.

D. Parents need to be cautious when choosing toys for their kids.

47. According to research, what do children need to do to learn a language?

     A. Read lots of cartoon books.                 B. Play with talking electronic toys.

C. Interact with their parents and caregivers. D. Use talking farm-animal toys.

48. According to the passage, why are talking electronic toys so popular?

A. Because they represent the latest creations.

B. Because they arouse the interest in learning.

C. Because they are used as an educational tool.

D. Because they are easy for the kids to control.

49. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?

A. It is necessary for the parents to share their experiences of reading with their kids.

B. It is necessary for the parents to spare more time to stay with their kids at home.

C. It is necessary for the parents to encourage their kids to attend social activities.

D. It is necessary for the parents to get involved in the conversations with their kids.

50. What is the author's attitude to electronic toys as language promoters?

     A. Critical                                       B. Doubtful.

     C. Supportive.                                    D. Objective.
