共用题干Washoe Learned American Sign Language
1.An animal that influenced scientific thought has died.A chimpanzee named Washoe and born in Africa died of natural causes late last month at the age of 42 at a research center in the American state of Washington.Washoe had become known in the scientific community arid around the world for her ability to use American sign language.She was said to be the first non-human to learn a human language.Her skills also led to debate about primates and their ability to understand language.
2.Research scientists Allen and Beatrix Gardner began teaching Washoe sign language in 1966.In 1969,the Gardners described Washoe's progress in a scientific report.The people who experimented with Washoe said she grew to understand about 250 words.For example,Washoe made signs to communicate when it was time to eat. She could request foods like apples and bananas.She also asked questions like,"Who is coming to play?"Once the news about Washoe spread,many language scientists began studies of their own into this new and exciting area of research.The whole direction of primate research changed.
3. However,critics argued Washoe only learned to repeat sign language movements from watching her teachers.They said she had never developed true language skills.Even now there are some researchers who suggest that primates learn sign language only by memory,and perform the signs only for prizes.Yet Washoe's keepers disagree.Roger Fouts is a former student of the Gardners.He took Washoe to a research center in Ellensburg,Washington.There,Washoe taught sign language to three younger chimpanzees,which are still alive.
4.Scientists like private researcher Jane Goodall believe Washoe provided new information about the mental workings of chimpanzees.Today,there are not as many scientists studying language skills with chimps.Part of the reason is that this kind of research takes a very long time.
5.Debate continues about chimps' understanding of human communication.Yet,one thing is sure一Washoe changed popular ideas about the possibilities of animal intelligence.
选项
Paragraph 1_______A:Reason Why Not Many Scientists Carry out This Research Nowadays.B:Report about Washoe's Progress in Learning Sign Language.C:General Information about Washoe.D:The Gardeners' Contributions Recognized.E:Debate on Chimps' Intelligence.F: Washoe's Love for Three Young Chimps.
答案
C
解析
文章第一段主要讲述的是Washoe死亡这件事以及对Washoe概括性的介绍,因此答案应当选择选项C。 第二段主要介绍了当年Washoe学习手语的进展情况及惊人的成果,因此选项B的概括最准确。 第三段主要讲的是一些批评家对Washoe语言能力的质疑,以及Gardner 夫妇的学生对此的反驳,因此选项E“对大猩猩智慧的争论”最符合要求。 第四段只有三句话,主要讲很少人继续从事这项研究的原因是耗时太久,因而选项A总结的最正确。 文章第二段中间提到当Washoe想吃东西的时候就会做手势,因此选择C项。 文章第三段其他研究者对Gardner夫妇的看法提出了质疑,认为Washoe 并不能真正掌握语言,只是凭借记忆学习手语。因此选项A是正确的。 第三段提到Washoe被带到了Ellensburg,在那里它甚至教会了其他三只黑猩猩手语,因此选项D是正确的。 文章第一段和第二段告诉我们Washoe掌握了大量的词汇并能用手语同人交流,它是第一个能了解人类语言的非人类,因此人们自然会认为它很聪明。选项E是正确的。
