听力填空

本听力材料来自于老托partb，partc，是公认实施有效的听写材料，对于上手托福时间不长的同学非常适合。我曾经一次短时间备考听力提高了7分也归功老托。希望大家和我一样一定要坚持下来噢。相信坚持学习的同学听力上都会有很大的飞跃！

Nopain, no gain.我们的安排是这样的，第一遍用听力软件精听材料（建议做单句听写，听写的时候不要偷看我给的挖空题），然后按照我给的挖空题填关键词，回复后即可看到听力原文和文章精解，我将把难点和易错点oneby one 分析给大家。

回复填空答案格式如下：1____2____3____...et.al.

In our lab today, we'll be testing the ______ that babied can count as early as five months of age. The six babies here are all less than six months old. You'll be watching them on closed-circuit TV and measuring their responses.
The experiment is based on the well-established ______that babies stare longer if they don't see what they expect to see. First, we're going to let two dolls move slowly in front of the babies. The babies will see the two dolls disappear behind a ______.Your job is to record, in seconds, how long the babies stare at the dolls when the screen is removed.
In the next stage, two dolls will again move in front of the babies and disappear. But then a third doll will follow. When the screen is removed, the babies will only see two dolls. If we're right, the babies will now ______ longer because they expect three dolls but only see two.
It seems _______to think that such young children can count. My own research has convinced me that they have this ability from birth. But whether they do or not, perhaps we should raise another question --- should we take advantage of this ability by teaching children mathematics at such a young age? They have great untapped potential, but is it good for parents to pressure young children?

The experiment is based on the well-established observation that babies stare longer if they don't see what they expect to see. First, we're going to let two dolls move slowly in front of the babies.

精解译文

终于这次不是“动物世界”了，生词专有名词太多，听着头疼。这篇文章听着很省力，完全没生词，其实截止发稿之前，这篇听力都听了不下七八遍了，熟读过数遍，真的没什么值得提取的地方了。大家就把这篇做泛听吧，听明白意思能完整复述就可以pass了。

【参考译文】

今天在我们的实验室，我们将测试的假设，即babied可以指望为早5个月的年龄。这里的六个婴儿都少于6个月的历史。你会看闭路电视和测量他们的反应。
实验的基础上行之有效的观察，婴儿凝视更长的时间，如果他们没有看到他们希望看到什么。首先，我们打算让两个娃娃在婴儿面前缓缓移动。婴儿会看到两个娃娃背后的屏幕上消失。你的任务是记录，在几秒钟内，多久的婴儿娃娃盯着屏幕时被删除。
在下一阶段，两个娃娃将再次在婴儿面前移动和消失。但是，然后第三个娃娃将随之而来。当屏幕被删除，婴儿只会看到两个娃娃。如果我们是正确的，现在盯着婴儿更长的时间，因为他们预计3娃娃，但只看到两个。
显着的似乎认为，这些年轻的孩子们可以指望。我自己的研究使我确信，他们有这个能力从出生。但是，他们是否做或没有，也许我们应该提出另一个问题---我们应采取这种能力，在这样一个年轻的年龄教孩子数学的优势？他们拥有巨大的尚未开发的潜力，但它是良好的父母施压幼童的吗？

祝大家每天进步一点点！
