Linguistic（語言學(xué)的） Puzzles
How did language begin? What was the world's first language? Do all languages come from one, original language?   71 .
In the 4th century BC, the Greek historian Herodotus wrote this account: Psamtik I an Egyptian King, wanted to find out what the oldest language in the world was．  72 ．He told his servant to find two newborn babies．When the servant had found them, the king gave them to a shepherd （牧羊人） and said, "Keep these babies with the goats．Take care of them, but do not talk to them．Listen for any words that they say．" The king wanted to find out what language the children would speak if they were left alone．He said, "The first words they speak will come from the original language of the world．"
_73  ． He told the king．who asked his scholars about this word．They told him that the Phiygians, who lived in an area which is now Turkey, called bread "becos．" The king said, "Then Phiygian is the oldest language．" Today we know that the king's conclusion was wrong．We don't know why the children said "becos"．
74 . Scholars discovered that many European and southern Asian languages belonged to the same "family" and that they started from the same parent language, Proto-Indo-European．Linguists think that it had split into several different languages, including Greek and Sanskrit, between 2000 and 1000 BC．Other languages, such as English and Spanish, developed from later splits．
75_  . Two questions that interest linguists are: How does language change? Why does language change? If you like solving mysteries, historical linguistics may be the job for you．
A．Nowadays, we study the origin of language more scientifically
B．He was talking about this problem with his scholars when he had an idea
C．The King was very kind to his servant and his servant remained royal to him
D．Linguists are the scholars who are very interested in categorizing the language families
E．People have been trying to find the answers to these questions for more than 2 ,000 years
F．One day, while the babies were babbling to each other, the shepherd heard them say "becos"
G．Linguists have classified many language families, and they are still trying to categorize others

71．E    72．B    73．F    74．A    75．G

For almost 18 years, my mom has given time from her life to devote her care to my growth. She has ashed  36  clothes. She’s planned doctors’ appointments  37  all parts of the body, cut hair, taken icures, bought presents,  38 vacations and basically kept a small boy’s life  39  smoothly.
When I was 12, I got into  40  arguments with my older and wiser parents. The   41 never led a any achievement for me, but I still took part. Many times strong feeling of anger caused tears  42  to in my eyes by the end of the quarrel with them.   43 , I’d return to my room and stay for as long as my parents allowed. Then I’d  44  a knock and hardly manage a weak, “Come in.” My mom, acting as a peacemaker,   45  slowly enter and sit next to me on the bed. I’d again try to  46  what I had said was true,  47  this time less angrily. Then mom calmly, strictly and lovingly showed to me her voice of   48  . After that she’d hug me and I’d stop crying; all would be  49  in my family again.
Hugs will  50  be her trademark（標(biāo)志）: warm hugs for goodnights, good-byes and a thousand other such situations. “You’re never too old to  51  your mother.” I’ve heard those eight words since I came to the world. They ring true. For some reason, those words possess the unbelievable  52  to reduce anxiety, cool an angry head,   53  fears and put wrong things right.
Perhaps my mother, now worthy of the title “Mom” can  be an example to mothers everywhere. Being a mother is not so  54  . Any female has the ability to become one. The challenge isn’t in becoming a “mother”, but instead , a “mom”. Mine does that quite  55 .

A
A university graduate described as a “respectable and intelligent” woman is seeking professional help after being convicted of shoplifting for the second time in six months.
Ana Luz, recently studying for PhD has been told she could end up behind bars unless she can control the desire to steal from shops.
Luz, who lives with her partner in Fitzwilliam Road, Cambridge, admitted stealing clothes worth 9.95 pounds from John Lewis in Oxford Street, London, on March 9.
Phillip Lomoyne, prosecuting(起訴), said Luz selected some clothes from display and took them to the ladies’ toilet in the store, when she came out again she was wearing one of the skirts she had selected, having taken off the anti-theft security alarm.
She was stopped and caught after leaving the store without paying, Mr. Lomoyne said.
He added that she was upset on her arrest and apologized for her actions.
Luz, 28, was said to have been convicted of shoplifting by Cambridge judges last October, but Morag Duff, defending said she had never been in trouble with the police before this.
“She is ashamed and embarrassed but doesn’t really have any explanation why she did this,” Miss Duff said. “She didn’t intend to steal when she went into the store. She is at a loss to explain it. She is otherwise a very respectable and intelligent young lady. She went to her doctor and asked for advice because she wants to know if there is something in particular that caused her to do this.”
Judge David Azan fined Luz 50 pounds, and warned: “You have got a criminal record. If you carry on like this, you will end up in prison, which will ruin your bright future you may have.”
Luz achieved a degree in design at university in her native Spain, went on to a famous university in Berlin, Germany for her master’s degree and is now studying for a PhD at Cambridge University, UK.

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
A
When I was a child , I remember that my mother decided that we would take a trip to visit my Aunt Sandy who lived in Mammoth Lakes, California. I was about 7 at the time but my memory does not fail me because I can recall my personal details .
We were sitting in the kitchen getting ready to have peanut butter and suddenly without warning the room started shaking. I remember thinking that it was weird(怪異)that construction workers must have been moving the house or something, but that it was weird that they would do it when we were still in it. I had a vivid imagination too. So everything started shaking and my aunt had this horrible look on her face as she dropped the knife of peanut-butter onto the ground and held on to the counter. My mom told me to get under the table, which as I think back was odd because what was happening was from the ground so what good was getting under a table going to do. The kitchen window soon broke out on its own from the force of all the shaking and I started getting pretty scared(害怕). I don’t think my aunt moved the entire time. My mom had gotten under the table with me and was holding me to make sure I was OK I suppose. It seemed strange because no one really knew what to do.
So finally the shaking stopped. The power was out and it took minutes before anyone really even started to move and talk again. My mother decided that we would leave the next morning. I don’t remember if we were only planning to stay for one night or if we were just stopping by on our way to Fresno where my mom had friends.
56．The first paragraph is mainly to tell us that the writer_________.
A．was eager to see Aunt Sandy      B．was too young to do anything
C．doesn’t remember anything at all    D．still remember what happened when young
57．While they were sitting in the kitchen__________.
A．the construction workers moved the house    
B．the kitchen window broke out on its own
C．a(chǎn) terrible earthquake took place suddenly     
D．they were warned to leave the room at once
58．Aunt dropped the knife of peanut-butter onto the ground because_________.
A．she was very busy   B．she was too frightened
C．everything shook hard    D．she didn’t use it any more
59．From the last paragraph we can know that________.
A．everyone began to make the house clean and tidy
B．the writer’s mum decided to leave immediately
C．the electricity was cut off completely at home
D．everyone started to talk about the shaking loudly
