Basic to any understanding of Canada in the 20 years after the Second World War is the country’s
impressive population growth. For every three Canadians in 1945, there were over five in 1966. In
September 1966 Canada’s population passed the 20 million mark. Most of his surging growth came
from natural increase. The depression of the 1930’s and the war had held back marriages, and the

catching-up process began after 1945. The baby boom continued through the decade of the 1950’s,
producing a population increase of nearly fifteen percent in the five years from 1951 to 1956. This rate
of increase had been exceeded only once before settle. Undoubtedly, the good economic conditions of
the 1950’s supported a growth in the population, but the expansion also derived from a trend toward
earlier marriages and an increase in the average size of families. In 1957 the Canadian birth rate stood
at 28 per thousand, one of the highest in the world.
After the peak year of 1957, the birth rate in Canada began to decline. It continued falling until
in 1966 it stood at the lowest level in 25 years. Partly this decline reflected the low level of births
during the depression and the war, but it was also caused by changes in Canadian society. Young
Trang 3/6 - Mã đề thi 132


people were staying at school longer; more women were working; young married couples were buying
automobiles or houses before starting families; rising living standards were cutting down the size of
families.It appeared that Canada was once more falling in step with the trend toward smaller families
that had occurred all through the Western world since the time of the Industrial Revolution.
Although the growth in Canada’s population had slowed down by 1966 (the increase in the first
half of the 1960’s was only nine percent), another large population wave was coming over the horizon.
It would be composed of the children who were born during the period of the high birth rate prior to
1957.

Ethology is concerned with the study of adaptive, or survival, value of behavior and its
Evolutionary history. Ethological theory began to be applied to research on children in the1960’s but
has become even more influential today. The origins of ethology can be traced to the work of Darwin.
Its modern foundations were laid by two European zoologists, Konrad Lorenz and Niko Tinbergen.
Watching the behaviors diverse animal species in their natural habitats, Lorenz, and Tinbergen
observed behavior patterns that promote survival. The most well-known of these is imprinting, the
early following behavior of certain baby birds that ensures that the young will stay close to their
mother and be fed and protected from danger. Imprinting takes place during an early, restricted time
period of development. If the mother goose is not present during this time, but an object resembling
her in important features is, young goslings may imprint on it instead . Observations of imprinting led
to major concept that has been applied in child development” the critical period . It refers to a limited
times span during which the child is biologically prepared to acquire certain adaptive behaviors but
Trang 4/6 - Mã đề thi 132


needs the support of suitably stimulating environment. Many researchers have conducted studies to
find out whether complex cognitive and social behaviors must be learned during restricted time

periods. for example, if children are deprived of adequate food or physical and social stimulation
during the early years of life, will their intelligence be permanently impaired? If language is not
mastered during the preschool years, is the child’s capacity to acquire it reduced?
Inspired by observations of imprinting, in 1969 the British psychoanalyst John Bowlby applied
ethological theory to the understanding of the relationship between an infant and its parents. He argued
that attachment behaviors of babies, such as smiling, babbling, grasping, and crying, are built-in social
signals that encourage the parents to approach, care for, and interact with the baby. By keeping a
parent near, these behaviors help ensure that the baby will be fed, protected from danger, and provided
with the stimulation and affection necessary for healthy growth. The development of attachment in
human infants is a lengthy process involving changes in psychological structures that lead to a deep
affectional tie between parent and baby.
Question 55: What was Darwin’s contribution to ethology?
A. Darwin was the first person to apply ethological theory to children.
B. Darwin’s work provided the basis for ethology.
C. Darwin was the professor who taught Lorenz and Tinbergen.
D. Darwin improved on the original principles of ethology.
Question 56: The word “foundations” in line 4 is closest in meaning to______.
A. institutions
B. inventions
C. discoveries
D. researches
Question 57: The word “ensures” in line 7 is closest in meaning to __________.
A. assumes
B. guarantees
C. proves
D. teaches
Question 58: According to the passage, if a mother goose is not present during the time period when
imprinting takes place, which of the following will most likely occur?
A. The mother will later imprint on the gosling.
B. The gosling may not find a mate when it matures.

C. The gosling will not imprint on any object.
D. The gosling may imprint on another object.
Question 59: The word “He” in line 19 refers to __________.
A. an infant
B. a psychoanalyst
C. parent
D. a baby
