Before he made it big, he was essentially a starving artist. For many years after his college years, he worked odd jobs to pay the bill while simultaneously taking on any acting role he could find to keep his dreams of becoming a successful actor alive.Most people dont know this about Sylvester Stallone, but he had a dream as a young man to become a big movie star in Hollywood. He longed to become a great director, producer, and writer. Everyone told him it could not be done, but he wasnt one to take no for an answer. And after finding little luck in the New Yorks films scene, he decided to try his chances in Los Angeles.It was a struggle that Sylvester would endure for many years, seven in fact. Throughout all of those seven challenging years, Sylvester would gain a few small roles in a handful of movies, but nothing grand enough to get his career launched. During those seven long years of striving, he came face-to-face with near poverty. Getting so desperate for money, he at one point had to sell his wifes jewelry. And he even had to sell his dog because he couldnt keep him fed. And to top it all off, there came a point where Sylvester was homeless, and had to sleep outside for a number of days.But his days of struggle as an aspiring actor would not last forever. After facing seemingly many hardships for over seven years, he would finally get his big break. And this break would come after he managed to get a script he wrote in a three-day flurry of inspiration in front of two big-shot directors in Hollywood. It was this defining moment that would turn the tides for Sylvester Stallone, and his career would skyrocket after he negotiated the lead role in the film that would come to be known as “Rocky”.Since then, Sylvester Stallone, and his series of movies revolving around Rocky have been inspiring people all around the world. His success story is one that should be observed, retold, and shared, just as much as his movies are.42. How did Sylvester feel about becoming a film star when he was young?A. It would be impossible.B. It would take lots of luck.C. It would involve struggles.D. It would come true for sure.43. What event marked a turning point in Stallones career?A. He negotiated the lead role in the film “Rocky”. B. He went to Los Angeles for more opportunities.C. He became homeless and slept outside for many days.D. He succeeded in showing his script to two great directors.44. Sylvesters life story is written to _.A. remember the famous actorB. describe how he succeededC. motivate others to pursue dreamsD. explain the popularity of his movieCIt was widely believed that, in order to get the first languages off the ground, our ancestors first needed a way to create novel signals that could be understood by others, relying on visual signs whose form was directly similar to the intended meaning. Some gestures can be understood almost anywhere: pointing to direct someones attention, for instance.However, an international research team, led by experts from the University of Birmingham and the Leibniz-Centre General Linguistics (ZAS), Berlin, have discovered that certain vocalizations (发 声法) can also be iconic and recognizable to people around the worldeven when a speaker is notsimply imitating a well-known sound. These findings, published in Scientific Reports, may help explain the rise of modern spoken language.In 2015, language researchers challenged some English speakers to make up sounds representing various basic concepts (“sleep”, “child”, “meat”, “rock”, and more). When other English speakers listened to these sounds and tried matching them to concepts, they were largely successful. But “we wanted to be able to show that these vocalizations are understandable across cultures,” says study co- author and University of Birmingham cognitive scientist Marcus Perlman.So Perlman and his colleagues conducted online and in-person experiments in seven countries, from Morocco to Brazil. They recruited more than 900 participants, who spoke a total of 28 languages, to listen to the best-understood vocalizations from the 2015 investigation and select matching concepts from a set of words or images. Vocalizations that called forth well-known soundsfor example, dripping waterperformed best. But many others were also understood at rates significantly above chance across all languages tested, the team found. “There is a notable degree of success outside ofjust onomatopoeia (象声词),” Perlman says.This is likely because certain patterns related to sound are universal, the team suggests. For example, short and basic sounds often convey the concept of “one” and repeated sounds are typically associated with “many”. Likewise, low-pitched sounds accompany something big, and high-pitched sounds convey small size. These findings of “iconic” sounds could help scientists understand howhuman ancestors started using rich acoustic (传音的) communication, says co-author Aleksandrawiek, a linguist at the Leibniz-Center General Linguistics in Berlin. The human voice, she says, might “afford enough iconicity to get language off the ground.”University of Tbingen linguist Matthias Urban, who was not involved in the research, agrees. “Its unclear how words came into being in the first place,” he says. Iconic vocalizations are “potentially one pathway that could have been involved.”45. What does the underlined word “iconic” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Symbolic.B. Comic.C. Magic.D. Classic.46. The finding of Perlmans research may .A. well explain the rise of English cultureB. throw light on the origin of spoken languageC. demonstrate that onomatopoeia may be popularD. show how our ancestors imitate unknown sounds47. What can we learn from the experiments in this passage?A. The English language is universally understood. B. Sound patterns may be related to their meanings.C. Sign language appeared earlier than spoken language.D. Words were evolved from vocalizations in ancient times.48. Which might be the best title for the passage?A. From Hand to Mouth: The Origins of LanguageB. Iconic Vocalizations are Created for CommunicationC. Made-up Sounds Convey Meanings across CulturesD.
