Question

17．Play is the basic business of childhood，and in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being．From earliest infancy （嬰兒），every child needs opportunity and right materials for play，and the main tools of play are toys．The main function of toys is to suggest，encourage and play．To succeed in this，they must be good toys，which children will play with often，and will come back again and again．Therefore，it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages of a child's development．
In recent years research on infant development has shown that the standard a child is likely to reach，within the range of his inherited abilities，is largely determined in the first three years of his life．So a baby's ability to benefit from the right play materials should not be underestimated．A baby who is encouraged，talked to and shown things and played with，has the best chance of growing up successfully．
In the next stage，from three to five years old，curiosity knows no bounds．Every type of suitable toys should be made available to the child，for trying out，experimenting and learning，for discovering his own particular ability：Bricks and jigsaws and construction toys； painting，scribbling and making things； sand and water play； toys for imaginative and pretending play-the first social games for learning to play and get on with others．
But at the third stage of play development-from five to seven or eight years old-the child is at school．But for a few more years play is still the best way of learning，at home or at school．It is easier to see which type of toys the child most enjoys．
Until the age of seven or eight，play and work mean much the same to a child．But once reading has been mastered，then books become the main source of learning．Toys are still interesting and valuable，which lead up to new hobbies，but their significance has changed to a child of nine or ten years old，toys and games mean，as to adults，relaxation and fun．

Answer 1

分析 玩耍是童年的基本業(yè)務，近年來的研究表明，玩在一個人類的發(fā)展起著極為重要的．從最早的初級階段（嬰兒），每個孩子都需要機會去玩，正確的材料，以及主要工具是玩具．玩具的主要功能是建議，鼓勵和玩耍．要想成功，就必須有好的玩具，孩子們常常會玩，會回來一次又一次玩的玩具．因此，在一個孩子的發(fā)展的不同階段，合適的玩具很重要．
    對嬰兒發(fā)展的近幾年的研究表明，一個孩子在他繼承的能力范圍內有可能達到的標準，很大程度上是由他生命中的第一個三年確定的．所以一個嬰兒的能力得益于合理的不可低估的玩耍的玩具．被鼓勵，與之說話和展示東西并與之玩的孩子，更有機會成功地成長．
    在下一階段，從三歲到五歲，好奇心永無止境．每一種合適的玩具應該提供給孩子，讓他嘗試，體驗和學習，發(fā)現自己特別的能力：積木、拼圖，建筑玩具，繪畫、涂鴉和手工制作、玩沙和水；具有想象力和假象的玩具都是孩子的第一社交游戲去學習和別人玩耍和交往．
    但是在兒童玩耍發(fā)展的第三個階段即五到七歲或八歲，孩子是在學校，但在之后的幾年的時間里，無論是在家里還是在學校里，玩耍仍然是最好的學習方式．
    直到孩子七歲或八歲的時候，玩耍和工作對孩子同樣的重要．但是一旦掌握了閱讀，然后書籍成為學習的主要來源．玩具仍然是有趣的和有價值的，這導致了新的愛好，但它們的意義已經改變到九或十歲的孩子，甚至成為成年人放松和娛樂的方式．
