The U. S. economy is growing most slowly, the U. S. Federal Reserve said on
Wednesday in a report. Economic business activity in most districts is
34 reported to be generally good and expanding moderately, in according to a
35 survey of regional business conditions last week. But the survey found
36 labour-market tightness and, in a few of regions, rift tightness appears to be
37 broadly based. As a result, wage gains have been tended to outstrip price increases.
38 The survey will be ruled by Federal Reserve policy-makers when they will meet
39 next month to consider adjusting interest rates. It was based on with information
40 collected during the middle of last week. There is a growing belief that Federal
41 Reserve officials will raise up short-term interest rates at the meeting to slow
42 economic growth and prevent from any acceleration in inflation. Recent reports,
43 including for shrinking unemployment, expanding factory orders and continued
44 high levels of home sales, have caused many to ask question earlier beliefs
45 that the dynamic economy in the country will slow by itself in the near future.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE’S REVIEW
The prime focus for management recently has been the integration into the Group of Damon Beds. This acquisition is very much greater part of our strategy to grow our
41 presence in the UK branded furniture market. We are neither convinced that
42 leveraging the proven brand management expertise of which we are proud is the
43 optimum route to continued and sustainable growth in shareholder value. Overall,
44 sales grew more quickly than 9%, to reach ￡125 million. This represents a small
45 increase in market share such as our strategy to build share in growing, added value
46 sectors gains momentum. Our established brands had another excellent year with
47 volumes and turnover at record levels. While we have increased capacity to cope with
48 significantly increased demand, boosted by the return to television advertising in early
49 last year. The purpose of the campaign is how to reinforce our position as the UK's
50 leading volume bed business by improving brand awareness still further on and, more
51 importantly, communicating to consumers regarding the message about the uniqueness
52 of the product and yet the benefits and reasons for choosing our beds. Early indications show that the campaign is already having the desired effect.

Any attempt to trace the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words lead to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves out as particularly indicative (标示的) of delight, distress, sociability, and so on. But since these cannot be said to show the baby's intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new sounds to their store. This self-imitation (自我模仿) leads on to deliberate imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arisen so to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.
It is a problem we need not get our teeth into. The meaning of a word depends on what a particular person means by it in a particular situation; and it is clear that what a child means by a word will change as he gains more experience of the world. Thus the use, at say seven months, of "mama" as a greeting for his mother cannot be dismissed as a meaningless sound simply because he also uses it at other times for his father, his dog, or anything else he likes.
Playful(顽皮的)and apparently meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself. I doubt, however, whether anything is gained when parents, cash in on this ability in an attempt to teach new sounds.
Children who start speaking late______.
A．probably do not hear enough language spoken around them
B．often take a long time in learning to listen properly
C．usually pay close attention to what they hear
D．may have problems with their hearing
