问题     It is, everyone agrees, a huge task that the child performs when he learns to speak, and the fact that he does so in so short a period of time challenges explanation.
    Language learning begins with listening. Individual children vary greatly in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and late starters are often long listeners. Most children will "obey" spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word obey is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises.
    Any attempt to trace the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves out as particularly indicative of delight, distress, sociability, and so on. But since these cannot be said to show the baby’s intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new sounds to their repertoire (能发出的全部声音). This self-imitation leads on to deliberate (有意识的) imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech. [br] From the passage we learn that______.
选项 A、early starters can learn to speak within only six months
B、children show a strong desire to communicate by making noises
C、imitation plays an important role in learning to speak
D、children have various difficulties in learning to speak
答案 C
解析 本题问从文章中我们可以了解到什么。本题考查学生对文章的重要事实或观点的理解和概括能力。根据文章第三段内容，尤其是文章的最后两句话指出，婴儿先是自我模仿然后逐渐有意识地模仿别人的话语或声音。从模仿到学会说话的界线是模糊的。可见，模仿在学习说话中起了重要的作用。由此我们可以推断出本题的正确答案应是C。
