【文章內容簡介】 is cooperativeness in a series of experiments with very young children. He finds that if babies aged 18 months see an unrelated adult with hands full trying to open a door, almost all will immediately try to help. There are several reasons to believe that the urges to help, inform and share are not taught, but naturally possessed in young children. One is that these instincts appear at a very young age before most parents have started to train their children to behave socially. Another is that the helping behaviors are not improved if the children are rewarded. A third reason is that social intelligence develops in children before their general cognitive（認知的） skills, at least when pared with chimps. In tests conducted by Tomtasello, the human children did no better than the chimps on the physical world tests but were considerably better at understanding the social world. The core of what children’s minds have and chimps’ don’t is what Tomasello calls shared intentionality. Part of this ability is that they can infer what others know or are thinking. But beyond that, even very young children want to be part of a shared purpose. They actively seek to be part of a “we”, a group that intends to work toward a shared goal. 28. What can we learn from the experiment with chimps? A. Chimps seldom care about others’ interests. B. Chimps tend to provide food for their children. C. Chimps like to take in their neighbors’ food. D. Chimps naturally share food with each other. 29. Michael Tomasello’s tests on young children indicate that they__________. A. trust adults with their hands full B. know how to offer help to adults C. know the world better than chimps D. have the instinct to help others 30. The passage is mainly about__________. A. the helping behaviors of young children B. ways to train children’s shared intentionality C. cooperation as a distinctive human nature D. the development of intelligence in children 第二節 （共 5 小題；每小題 2 分，滿分 10 分） 根據短文內容， 從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。 When we’re little, we know nothing about the rights and responsibilities of adulthood. 31 .Thus, if we like a certain toy or if we want to eat a certain type of chocolate, we think that our parents will have to buy that for us. We don’t care that they possibly have not enough money for that. If they don’t carry out our wish, we’ll begin to cry. 32 . Whenever we begin to cry, we’ll get what we want. Still, little by little, we realize that our parents can’t offer us all that we want for certain reasons. We then also understand that parents have their rights. They have the right to scold us when we do something wrong or when they find out that we have lied to them. 33 . They choose our clothes, the food we eat, the school we’ll study at, the hours when we should go out to play and the time we have to return home. 34 .They are the ones to be blamed later if we don’t receive proper education. That’s why when we beat a classmate at the kindergarten, parents are the ones to apologize for our deeds in front of the teacher and the classmate’s parents. And when we get ill, they are responsible for not taking good care of us and for dressing us inadequately. The moment we bee teenagers, we notice that we should be responsible for our behaviors in society. Now we have the right to be independent. 35 . It is supposed that we are mature enough to solve our problems and to make people around trust us. For some of us, this is a difficult test to pass, but it is the best method to see if we are capable of taking our place in society. A. We should believe we can do them by ourselves. B. We think our parents should offer us all we need. C. This is a child’s important weapon to threaten his/her parents. D. Moreover, they have the right to make choices for us when we’re little. E. As a matter of fact, parents have a lot of things to be concerned about. F. But at the same time they are responsible for many things that happen to us. G. However, it’s also time for us to give explanations when we do something wrong. 第三部分 ： 完型填空（共 20 小題；每小題 , 滿分 30 分） 閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的四個選項（ A、 B、 C 和 D）中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上涂黑。 My husband and l were enjoying wandering through the st
