65、rains. Even so, just as American-born infants, their first English sentences consisted of single words.

66、ry reached the same sizes, further suggesting that what matters is not how old you are or how mature your brain is, but the number of words you know.This findingthat having more mature brains did not help the adoptees avoid the baby talk stagesuggests that babies speak in baby talk not because they
67、have baby brains, but because they have only just started learning and need time to gain enough vocabulary. Before long, the one-word stage will give way to the two-word stage and so on. Learning how to chat like an adult is a gradual process.But this finding also raises an even older and more diffi

74、he baby talk stagesuggests that babies speak in baby talk not because they have baby brains, but because they have only just started learning and need time to gain enough vocabulary. Before long, the one-word stage will give way to the two-word stage and so on. Learning how to chat like an adult is
75、a gradual process.”(这一发现表明,婴儿说话不是因为他们有婴儿的大脑,而是因为他们才刚刚开始学习,需要时间来获得足够的词汇量。不久之后,单词阶段将让位于双词阶段等等。学习如何像成年人一样聊天是一个渐进的过程。)可知,哈佛的发现说明了语言学习是按照有序的步骤进行的。故选A项。【33题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“Researchers have long suspected there is a “critical period” for language development, after which it cannot proceed with full success
76、 to fluency.”(长期以来,研究人员一直怀疑语言发展存在一个“关键时期”,过了这个时期,语言就不能完全成功地发展为流利的语言了。)可以推知,“关键时期”是指语言学习者可以达到像母语一样的流利的时期。故选D项。【34题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文,根据第一段“Over the past half-century, scientists have settled on two reasonable theories related to baby talk. One states that a young childs brain needs time to master language
