I。 Decide whether each of the following statements is True or False。
⒈The linguistic ability of human beings depends primarily on the structure of the vocal
cords.
⒉Human beings are the only organisms in which one particular part of the left half of the
brain is larger than the corresponding part of the right half.
3。The case of Phineas Gage suggests that if our language ability is located in the brain, it is
clear that it is not situated right at the front.
⒋In general, the right side of the brain controls voluntary movements of， and responds to
signals from， the left side of the body， whereas the left side controls voluntary movements of，
and responds to signals from, the right side of the body.
ge functions are believed to be lateralized primarily in the left hemisphere of the
brain.
6。The language we speak determines the way we perceive the world and therefore the
nature of thought.
beings can not think without language， just as they can not speak without
thinking.
a language lacks a word, its speakers will not be able to grasp its concept.
lly speaking， left hemisphere is responsible for language and speech， analytic
reasoning, associative thought， etc.， while the right hemisphere is responsible for perception
of nonlinguistic sounds， holistic reasoning， recognition of musical melodies， etc.
10。Language by no means determines the ways we perceive the objective world， but by its
convenience， availability， and habitual use， does influence the perceptions of human being。
II. Fill in each of the blanks below with one word which begins with the letter given。
11。P_________ is the study of language in relation to the mind。
most important part of the brain is the outside surface of the brain， called the
cerebral c_________, which is the decision-making organ of the body.
brain is divided into two roughly symmetrical halves， called h_________， one on
the right and one on the left.
14。The localization of cognitive and perceptual functions in a particular side of the brain is
called l__________.
lateralization is g__________ programmed, but takes time to develop。
addition to the m________ area which is responsible for physical articulation of
utterances， three areas of the left hemisphere are vital to language, namely， Broca's area,
Wernicke’s area and the angular gyrus.
relationship between the name and the meaning of a word is quite
a______________.
18。When language and thought are identical or closely parallel to each other, we may
regard thought as s________ speech and speech as o__________ thought。
19。Because languages differ in many ways， Whorf believed that speakers of different
languages perceive and experience the world differently, relative to their linguistic background.
This notion is called linguistic r__________。
basic essentials of the first language are acquired in the short period from about age
two to puberty， which is called the c____ period for first language acquisition.
strong version of Sapir—Whorf hypothesis has two aspects: linguistic d_______ and
linguistic relativism。

A。 human brain
C。 human memory
B. human vocal cords
D. human
23。Psychologists， neurologists and linguists have concluded that， in addition to the motor
area which is responsible for physical articulation of utterances, three areas of the left brain are
vital to language， namely， _______。
A。 Broca’s area， Wernicke’s area and the angular gyrus
B. Broca’s area， Wernicke's area and cerebral cortex
C. Broca’s area， Wernicke’s area and neurons
D. Broca’s area， Wernicke’s area and Exner’s area
____ age for the acquisition of the first language coincides with the period of brain
lateralization。
A. youngest
C. optimum
B. flexible
D。 relevant
25. Linguistic ____ is the brain’s neurological specialization for language。
A. fossilization
C. competence
B. performance
D。 lateralization
26。 Our linguistic ability is a ________ gift of the species’ gene program.
A. chemical
C. scientific
B。 physical
D. biological
27.________shows that if our language ability is located in the brain， it is clear that it is not
situated right at the front of the brain。
A。 The case of Genie
C. The componential analysis
most important part of the brain is the outside surface of the brain， called
_________。
A. the neurons
C. cerebral cortex
B. nerve pathways
D. sensory organs
B。 The case of Phineas Gage
D. The contrastive analysis
ing to lateralization theory， which of the following is not the primary function of
