18、ked his father to get him a kite and a thread（线）with a roller so he could fly a kite, too. So the father went to the shop at the park where the festival was being held and bought a kite and a roll of thread for his son.Then the son started to fly a kite. Soon, his kite was high up in the sky. After

19、a while, the son said, “Dad, it seems that the thread is stopping the kite from flying higher. If we break it, the kite will be free and will go flying even higher. Can we break it？” The father said nothing and cut the thread from the roller. The kite started to go a little higher. That made the son

20、 very happy.But then, slowly, the kite started to come down. And soon it fell down and landed on the top of an unknown building. The young son was surprised to see this. He had cut the kite loose of its thread so it could fly higher, but instead, it fell down. He asked his father, “ Dad, I thought t

21、hat after cutting the thread, the kite could freely fly higher. Why did it fall down？”The father explained, “ Dear son, at the height of the life that we live, we often think some things are tying us down and that they are preventing us from going any higher. The thread was not holding the kite from

22、 going higher, but it was helping it stay higher when the wind slowed down. And when the wind picked up again, you helped the kite go higher and in the proper direction through the thread. And when we cut the thread, the kite fell down without the support you were providing through the thread.”25Why

24、y kites happy.C It prevents the kite from flying higher. D It helps the kite stay higher.27Why didnt the father refuse the sons asking for cutting the thread at first？A Because he wanted to give his son a lesson. B Because he wanted to meet his sons requirement.C Because he wanted the kite to fly hi

25、gher. D Because he wanted to make his son proud.CA new study from brain researchers helps explain how the human brain developed, or changed over time, to allow people to be able to speak and write. This new research may also help people who are learning a new language.Michael Ullman, a professor at

26、Georgetown University Medical School in Washington, D.C., is the lead researcher. He has been studying language learning for more than 20 years.Ullman, Phillip Hamrick （ another researcher） and the rest of the team looked at data from 16 other studies on language. They found that people learn langua

27、ge using two memory systems：declarative （陈述性的）and procedural （程序性的）. Memorizing vocabulary, for example, is a declarative memory process. But learning grammar is, mostly, a procedural memory process.“Declarative memory, in humans at least, is what we think of as learning memory. Such as, Oh, I remem

28、ber what you said last night or things like that. And procedural motor memory is what we often call motor memory, such as how you learn to ride a bicycle,” says Professor Ullman. These procedural memory skills become so deeply learned that we are no longer aware that we are doing them.However, Ullma

29、n explains that the two long-term memory systems can share tasks. And, he adds, the adult brain uses the systems to learn language a bit differently from the way a childs brain does it.“Adult learners of a second language tend to rely on learning the grammar in declarative memory early on. But final

30、ly, they become just like kids learning the grammar and they depend on procedural memory.”In other words, adult language learners may use their declarative memory for using grammar patterns. They think about it on purpose. For a child, the grammar may come more naturally. They dont have to think abo

31、ut the grammar rules before speaking.In a statement to reporters, Ullman said he hopes the new research “will lead to exciting advances in our understanding of language, and in how both second language learning and language problems can be improved.”28. What can we learn from the text？A. People learn a second language by using declarative memory. B. People learn their native language by using procedural memory.C. People learn vocabulary by using declarative memory. D. People lean grammar only by using procedural memory.29. According to the text, which of the fol
