Today no such drastic deprivation exists as that ordered by Frederick.Nevertheless, some children are still backward in speaking.Most often the reason for this is that the mother is insensitive to the cues and signals of the infant,whose brain is programmed to mop up language rapidly.There are critical times,it seems,when children learn more readily.If these sensitive periods are neglected,the ideal time for acquiring skills passes and they might never be learned so easily again. Linguists suggest that speech milestones are reached in a fixed sequence and at a constant age,but there are cases where speech has started late in a child who eventually turns out to be of high IQ (Intelligence Quotient). Recent evidence suggests that an infant is born with the capacity to speak.What is special about man's brain,compared with that of the monkey,is the complex system which enables a child to connect the sight and feel of,say,a teddy-bear with the sound pattern “teddy-bear”.

Judging from the drastic experiment of Frederick II in the 13th century , it may be. Hoping to discover what language a child would speak if he heard no mother tongues, he told the nurses to keep silent. All the infants died before the first year. But clearly there was more than language deprivation here. What was missing was good mothering. Without good mothering , in the first year of life especially , the capacity to survive is seriously affected. Today no such drastic deprivation exists as that ordered by Frederick. Nevertheless, some children are still backward in speaking. Most often the reason for this is that the mother is insensitive to the cues and signals of the infant , whose brain is programmed to mop up language rapidly. There are critical times, it seems, when children learn more readily. If these sensitive periods are neglected , the ideal time for acquiring skills passes and they might never be learned so easily again. Linguists suggest that speech milestones are reached in a fixed sequence and at a constant age , but there are cases where speech has started turns out to be of high IQ (Intelligence Quotient). late in a child who eventually Recent evidence suggests that an infant is born with the capacity to speak.

A.The faculty of speech is inborn to man. B.Children do not need to be encouraged to speak. C.The child's brain is highly selective.
