【答案】
(1)No,wonder
(2)Suspecting,of
(3)What,excited/thrilled,me
(4)makes,no,sense
(5)Only,if/when,will/can,we
【解析】考查词汇,句意翻译,语法知识。
(1)No wonder 考查固定结构。此处根据句意表示难怪,故用No wonder 。
(2)Suspecting of 考查固定搭配和非谓语动词。根据汉语提示可知为suspect,其搭配是suspect sb of:控告/怀疑某人……。此部分又不是句子,故用非谓语,逻辑主语是the Custom official,和suspect之间是主动关系,故用suspecting……of 。
(3)What excited/thrilled me考查主语从句。根据句意此处用一个主语从句,引导词用what,表激动的词是excite,或thrill,故最后答案为为What excited/thrilled me。
(4)makes no sense/ doesn't make sense 考查固定搭配。make sense:有道理,有意义,讲得通,固定搭配,否定形式为 make no sense或者doesn't make sense,根据句意此处为否定,故填makes no sense/ doesn't make sense。
(5)Only if/when will/can we考查条件句。此处为条件状语从句,用only if,或者only when也可表示条件,后面是倒装句,助动词放主语前面,故此句填Only if/when ……will/can we
【题目】A new set of brain images shows why : Reading the Roman alphabets and Chinese characters uses different parts of the brain.
The results also suggest that Chinese schoolchildren have reading problems in a different part of the brain used in reading alphabet-based languages. This shows that the learning disorder dyslexia ( inability to read properly) is not the same in very culture and does not have a universal biological cause.
Scientists described the results as “ very important and revolutionary”. While dyslexia has certain common roots, they said, they now have some proof that this kind of functional problem works differently according to the different demands that Western and Eastern languages place on the brain.
Dyslexia is a common developmental disorder in which people of normal intelligence have difficulty learning to read, spell and master other language skills.
The results suggest that treating dyslexia around the world probably will require different treatments.
“Reading is complex,” said Guinevere Eden, Georgetown University professor. “ This shows we need to be more open-minded about diverse treatment approaches.”
Its origins are complex. There appears to be a genetic aspect to the illness. It also may result from brain injury before birth that changes visual and hearing pathways in the brain.
Earlier brain scans show that English-reading dyslexics don’t function properly in a left part of the brain associated with the awareness of 44 sounds from the English alphabet. However, according to the new study, reading Chinese uses some different parts of the brain located in the left-front of the brain. It is associated with symbol interpretation. Unlike alphabet letters, Chinese characters represent entire thoughts and physical objects.
