Why do young children and scientists seem to be so much alike? Psychologists have suggested that science as an effort — the desire to explore, explain, and understand our world — is simply something that comes from our babyhood. Perhaps evolution (进化) provided human babies with curiosity and a natural drive to explain their worlds, and adult scientists simply make use of the same drive that served them as children. The same cognitive (认知的) systems that make young children feel good about figuring something 该段谈到要从科学研究的角度看待儿童的发展,说我们追求科学的态度其实源于我们的儿童时代。由此概括出该段主旨是B项“研究婴儿的游戏或许有助于更好地理解科学”。 out may have been adopted by adult scientists. As some psychologists put it, “It is not that children are little scientists but that scientists are big children.” Q:What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A.The world may be more clearly explained through children's play. B.Studying babies' play may lead to a better understanding of science. C.Children may have greater ability to figure out things than scientists. D.One's drive for scientific research may become stronger as he grows. [高考典例2] 2016·江苏卷·C篇 The most recent powerful Nin, in 199798, killed around 21,000 people and caused damage worth $36 billion around the globe. But such Nino come with months of warning, and so much is known about how they happen that governments can prepare. According to the Overseas Development Institute ( ODI ), however, just 12% of disasterrelief funding in the past two decades has gone on reducing risks in advance, rather than recovery and rebuilding afterwards. This is despite evidence that a dollar spent on riskreduction saves at least two on reconstruction. ODI的数据分析 Simple improvements to infrastructure (基础设施) can reduce the spread of disease. Better sewers (下水道) make it less likely that heavy rain is followed by an outbreak of the disease of bad stomach. Stronger bridges mean villages are less likely to be left without food and medicine after floods. According to a paper in 2011 by Mr Hsiang and coauthors, civil conflict is related to El Nin's harmful effects — and the poorer the country, the stronger the link. Though the relationship may not be causal, helping divided communities to prepare for disasters would at least reduce the risk that those disasters are followed by killing and wounding people. Since the poorest are least likely to make up for their losses from disasters linked to El Nin, reducing their losses needs to be the priority. 如何防止厄尔尼诺带来次生灾害 Q:What is the author's purpose in writing the passage? A.To introduce El Nin and its origin. B.To explain the consequences of El Nin. C.To show ways of fighting against El Nin. D.To urge people to prepare for El Nin. 作者从上面两个方面鼓励人们以正向心态积极应对厄尔尼诺现象。故选D项。查看更多
