A. create

B. control

A. Tuning now occurs in response to internally generated electrical activity.

B. Tuning now occurs in response to a "virtual environment" generated by cells in the brain and eye.

C. Tuning now becomes innate because the "virtual environment" disappears.

D. Tuning now includes responses to outside stimuli.

4. What evidence does the author provide to support the claim that it is difficult to describe "innate knowledge" as fundamentally different from learning?

A. Visual neurons change in response to electrical activity from other parts of the brain or eye.

B. Visual tuning of neurons in rodents occurs after birth.

C. Scientists do not fully understand how learning occurs after birth.

D. The process of developing binocular vision varies with individual rodents.

5. According to paragraph 3, why have some people argued t hat processing faces is innate?

A. Babies are attracted to patterns that resemble the human face

B. Babies have a primitive, reflex like reaction to faces.

C. Some parts of the brain are devoted specifically to the recognition of faces.

D. Studies show that the brains of infants are less specialized than those of adults.

6. The word "triggered" in the passage is closest in meaning to

A. Explained

B. activated

C. maintained

D. illustrated

7. In paragraph 3, why does the author discuss babies' recognition of faces?

A. To contrast the development of newborns and rodents in terms of the roles of nature and nurture.

B. To provide additional evidence for the argument that perceptual development is dependent upon activity.

C. To provide additional support for the idea that nature influences development more than nurture.

D. To describe how regions of the human brain become specialized during development.

8. The word "integration" in the passage is closest in meaning to

A. Union

B. Distinction

C. Understanding

D. achievement

9. What example discussed in the passage leads to the conclusion "it appears that infants actively contribute to their own subsequent development "?

【Paragraph 4】 Another example comes from the study of infants' eye movements to visual targets. Although newborns are capable of some primitive reflexive eye movements, only much later in the first year can they make most of the kinds of complex and accurate eye movements seen in adults. One view is that the very limited ability present in newborns is just sufficient to allow them to practice and develop new brain circuits for the more complex integration of visual and motor information necessary for adult eye movements. Once again, it appears that infants actively contribute to their own subsequent development.

A. Babies achieve more complex eye movements through repeated practice.

B. Babies learn some eye movements by imitating the eye movements they see in adults.

C. Focusing on visual targets may make it more difficult for babies to develop adult eye movements.

D. Infants are motivated to retain some primitive reflexive eye movements.

10. What can be inferred about babies of four months and older from paragraph 5?

A. Their eye movements have become so advanced that experiments cannot measure them as precisely as before.

B. Their perceptual abilities cannot be determined because studies have not been done at this age.

C. They are visually stimulated by their environment rather than by internally generated waves of electrical activity.

D. Their innate visual abilities cannot be determined because activity considerably influences perception.

11. Which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in the passage?

Incorrect choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information

【Paragraph 5】 These considerations should make us skeptical about the many claims that are made for innate perceptual abilities based on experiments with babies of four months and older. In fact, when the same experiments were done with younger infants, quite different results have often been obtained, suggesting dramatic changes in perceptual abilities over the first few weeks and months after birth.

A. Different experiments on younger children often yield similar results about perceptual ability.

B. Varying the visual stimuli in the same experiment has been shown to change the perceptual ability of younger children

C. The results of experiments on perceptual ability suggest younger infants change less dramatically than do older infants.

D. Experiments show that perceptual ability changes significantly in the weeks and months after birth.

12. The word "subsequent" in the passage is closest in meaning to

A. Later

B. Permanent

C. Basic

D. independent

13. Look at the four squares ⬛ that indicate where the following sentence could be

added to the passage.

Since the "virtual environment" shapes the neurons, binocular vision cannot be considered to be purely innate.

Where would the sentence best fit? Click on a square ⬛ to add the sentence to the passage.

[ Paragraph 2 ] To begin to illustrate my point, let's consider some recent neurobiological work on the prenatal (before birth) development of the brain in rodents. Neurons are specialized cells that transmit impulses or messages to other neurons, glands, and muscles. ⬛ The neurons studied in these experiments are those involved in binocular vision. ⬛Experiments show that the prenatal tuning (training) of these neurons arises through their response to internally generated waves of electrical activity. ⬛In other words, the response properties of these visual neurons are shaped by a "virtual environment" generated by cells elsewhere in the brain and eye. ⬛Although the term "innate" can be stretched to cover this example of development, we could equally well describe this process as the cells "learning" from the input provided. Further, after birth the same neurons continue to be tuned in the same way except that now their input also reflects the structure of the world outside. When we examine development in detail, it becomes harder to argue, as some theorists do, that "innate knowledge" is fundamentally different from learning.

14. Directions: An introductory sentence for a brief summary of the passage is provided

Most developmental scientists still disagree about the relative importance of nature and nurture 1n perceptual development.

abilities.

Answer Choices

A. Recent studies support the idea that the rate of perceptual development depends upon innate abilities.

B. The tuning of neurons is most consistently effective within a "virtual environment."

C. There is evidence that human infants take active roles in the developmental process of acquiring mature and complex perceptual abilities.

D. The author believes that explaining perceptual development as either innate or learned is problematic.

E. Experiments with rodents can lead to an interpretation that neurons are "learning" even before birth

F. New bra in -imaging techniques suggest that newborns share the same specialized ability for processing faces as adults do.
