People appear to be born to compute. The numerical skills of children develop so early that it is easy to imagine an internal clock of mathematical maturity guiding their growth. Not long after learning to walk and talk, they can set the table with impressive accuracy--one plate, one knife, one spoon, one fork. Soon they are capable of noting that they have placed five knives, spoons, and forks on the table and, a bit later, that this amounts to fifteen pieces of silverware. Having thus mastered addition, they move on to subtraction, It seems almost reasonable to expect that if a child were secluded (使...隐居) on a desert island at birth and returned seven years later, he or she could enter a second-grade mathematics class without any serious problems of intellectual adjustment.
Of course, the truth is not so simple. This century, the work of cognitive(认知的) psychologists had illuminated the subtle forms o? daily learning on which intellectual progress depends. Children were observed as they slowly grasped concepts that adults take for granted, as they refused, for instance, to concede that quantity is unchanged as water pours from a short stout glass into a tall thin one. Psychologists have demonstrated that young children, asked to count the pencils in a pile, readily report the number of blue or red pencils, but must be coaxed (哄) into finding the total. Such studies have suggested that the basics of mathematics are mastered gradually, and with effort. They have also suggested that the very concept of abstract numbers is itself far from innate. [br] With which of the following statements would the author be LEAST likely to agree?
选项
A、Children naturally and easily learn mathematics.
B、Children learn to add before they learn to subtract.
C、Most people follow the same pattern of mathematical development.
D、Mathematical development is subtle and gradual.
答案
A
解析
细节归纳题。文章最后两句话表明了孩子们在学习数目时,既非轻而易举(with effort),同时这种能力也不是天生钓(far from innate)。当然,这里可用排除法,考生只要理解最后两句话中的依据就可以知道A选项与文章不符,从而正确选出A项答案了。其他选项则都可以在文章中找到依据。
