完形填空The social and technological development is fast nowadays. People might feel 【A1】______ hard to adapt themselves to the modem world. And they are more worried about the next generation, who seem to take【A2】______ the main responsibility of the future society, and worried more about the proper【A3】______ to raise children, who are believed to be able to help bring【A4】______ a better society.All the thinking and worries appear quite reasonable,【A5】______ they exaggerate the fact a little. The society consists of people of different age groups, people of all walks of life, all of【A6】______ as an integrative whole determines the destiny of society. 【A7】______ in China, many of the national leaders are around 60. Those who are not【A8】______ enough can always learn either from the elder or【A9】______ their personal working experiences. Few can be raised by the parents and taught by the teachers and then【A10】______ out to be the backbone of the society without real practical experiences.It is important for children to get socialized. A human baby picked up and 【A11】______ by a wolf in the wolves’ world cannot learn human tricks even when he is 【A12】______ by humans after a few years; he could not even learn to speak! That 【A13】______ the environmental influence on the kid. But the socialization of the children needs the whole society 【A14】______ its environment. If it is a benign environment, children are growing【A15】______, sound both psychologically and physically. If it is a miasmatic one, children cannot bring about a better society even when they grow up, under that ineluctable malicious influence.Vital 【A16】______ socialization is, in my opinion, the grown-ups do not need to find the【A17】______ better ways to raise their children in this 【A18】______, instead, they can simply do their jobs well, helping to make a better society through their own effort to influence the next generation, so 【A19】______ can enjoy and nurture on some positive atmosphere.

完形填空One of the most important new methodologies is biomechanics, the study of the body in motion. A【A21】______ films an athlete in 【A22】______ and then digitizes her performance, 【A23】______ the motion of every joint and【A24】______ in three dimensions. By 【A25】______ Newton’s law to these motions, “we can say that this athlete’s run is not fast enough; that he is not using his arms【A26】______ enough during take-off,” says Dapena, who uses these methods to help high jumpers. To 【A27】______, however, biomechanics has made only a small 【A28】______ to athletic performance.Revolutionary ideas still come from the athletes themselves. For example, during the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City, a 【A92】______ unknown high jumper named Dick Fosbury won the gold by going over the bar 【A30】______, in complete contradiction of all the 【A31】______ high-jumping wisdom, a move instantly【A32】______ the Fosbury flop. Fosbury himself did not know what he was doing. That understanding took the【A33】______ analysis of biomechanics specialists, who put their minds to comprehending something that was too complex and unorthodox【A34】______ to have been invented through their own mathematical simulations. Fosbury also required another【A35】______ that lies behind many improvements in【A36】______ performance: an innovation in athletic equipment. In Fosbury’s【A37】______, it was the cushions that jumpers land on. Traditionally, high jumpers would land in pits【A38】______ with sawdust. But by Fosbury’s time, sawdust pits had been replaced by soft foam cushions, 【A39】______ for flopping. In the end, most people who examine human performance are humbled by the 【A40】______ of athletes and the powers of the human body.

完形填空It is worth looking at one or two aspects of the way a mother behaves towards her baby. The usual fondling, cuddling and cleaning require little【A21】______, but the position in which she holds the baby【A22】______ her body when resting is rather【A23】______. Careful American studies have disclosed the fact that 80 percent of mothers【A24】______ their infants in their left arms, holding them against the left side of their bodies. If【A25】______ to explain the significance of this preference, most people reply that it is obviously the result of the【A26】______ of right-handedness in the population. 【A27】______ holding the babies in their left arms, the mothers【A28】______their dominant arm free for manipulations. But a detailed analysis shows that this is not the 【A29】______. True, there is a slight difference between right- handed and left-handed females, but not【A30】______ to provide an adequate explanation. It 【A31】______ that 83 per cent of right-handed mothers hold the baby on the left side, but then 【A32】______ do 78 percent of left-handed mothers.The only other【A33】______ comes from the fact that the heart is on the left side of the mother’s body. Could it be that the sound of her heartbeat is the vital factor? And in what way? Thinking along these【A34】______ it was argued that perhaps during its existence inside the body of the mother, the 【A35】______ embryo becomes fixated【A36】______ the sound of the heartbeat. If this is so, then the re- discovery of this 【A37】______ sound after birth might have a calming【A38】______ on the infant, especially as it has just been【A39】______ into a strange and frighteningly new world outside. If this is so then the mother, either【A40】______ or by an unconscious series of trials and errors, would soon arrive at the discovery that her baby is more at peace if held on the left against her heart, than on the right.
