The average(平均的)American child spends three to five hours a day watching TV. In 1961, the average child began to watch television at age three; however, today it is nine months. Yet, most parents think that television has bad influence on their children. For example, in the early 1970s, my parents believed that my bad eyesight was the result of sitting too close to the screen, and they therefore made my stay at least six feet from it. Today, most people have no such worry, but many new ridiculous (荒谬的) sayings have appeared:

*TV makes kids stupid. Many children watch more educational programs when they are pre-schoolers. When they grow up, they can read more books and have much better ideas to solve difficult problems than other children.

*TV makes kids violent. The real story is not so simple. Hundreds of studies show that watching violence on TV makes children more aggressive (好斗的). But a study of over 5,000 children also finds that some positive programs make children kinder. The problem is that kids are increasingly watching shows with violence instead of those suitable for their age.

*Sitting around watching TV makes kids overweight. An experiment finds that when children watch less television, they do lose extra weight; however, reducing their television time does not make them more active. The real problem lies in snacking (吃零食). A widespread habit for kids, and junk-food advertisements.

*TV helps kids get to sleep. The opposite is true. The more television children watch, the more likely they are to have irregular sleep and nap (小睡) patterns. Allowing kids to watch television is part of the problem, not the solution.

1.Which one is the advantage of educational TV programs?

A. They will make children solve difficult problems better than others.

B. they will improve children’s ability to get along with others.

C. They are likely to make children more aggressive.

D. They will make sure of children’s success in the future.

2.Why are children spending much time watching TV likely to be fat?

A. Watching TV makes children lazy and inactive.

B. Children are attracted by the food advertisement on TV.

C. Watching TV doesn’t burn up as much fat as doing sports.

D. Children like to snack while watching TV.

3.What influence does watching TV have on a child’s sleep?

A. Children are likely to sleep deeper after watching TV.

B. Children’s sleep time will be greatly reduced.

C. It will make children form a bad habit of sleeping.

D. It will make children sleep easier.

4.What is the purpose of this text?

A. To increase people’s knowledge of watching TV.

B. To warn parents of the disadvantages of watching TV.

C. To explain the bad influences that watching TV has on children.

D. To correct parents’ wrong ideas of television’s effect on children.

 

1.A 2.D 3.C 4.D 【解析】 试题分析:电视真的会对孩子造成诸多的不良影响吗?作者并不这么认为。 1. 细节信息题。根据文章第二段中对“电视会让孩子变傻”这一言论的反驳:“Many children watch more educational programs when they are pre-schoolers. When they grow up, they can read more books and have much better ideas to solve difficult problems than other children. ”可知,看更多教育节目的孩子,比其他的孩子在长大后会阅读更多的书,且在解决难题方面会有更好的主意。故该题正确答案为A. 2. 细节信息题。根据文章第四段中对“坐在那儿看电视使得孩子们超重”这一观点的反驳:“The real problem lies in snacking (吃零食).”(真正的问题在于吃零食。)可知,正确答案为D。 3. 细节信息题。根据文章最后一段对“电视帮助孩子入睡”这一观点的反驳中“The more television children watch, the more likely they are to have irregular sleep and nap(小睡) patterns.”(看电视越多的孩子,越可能养成不规律的睡觉和小睡。),故正确答案为C。 4.D 主旨大意题。该文罗列出人们对于电视对孩子的影响的误解,并一一给出理由。故该题正确答案为D。 【名师点拨】 所谓细节题,是指原文提到了某事物、现象或理论,题干针对原文具体叙述本身发问。一般包括直接理解题(在原文中可直接找到答案,常用who, what, when, where, why和how等提问。)语义转化题(需要将题目信息与原文相关信息进行语义上的转换,两者存在表达上的差异,有时需要进行加工或整理后方能得出结论)、数字计算题、排列顺序题、图表图画题等。抓住文段中的事实和细节是做好该题型的关键,也是做好其它类型问题的基础。5.细节信息题。根据文章最后一段对“电视帮助孩子入睡”这一观点的反驳中“The more television children watch, the more likely they are to have irregular sleep and nap(小睡) patterns.”(看电视越多的孩子,越可能养成不规律的睡觉和小睡。),故正确答案为C. 考点:考查教育类阅读

The US will have a new president this fall. Voters will decide between the Democratic candidate (候选人), Hillary Clinton, and Donald Trump of the Republicans.

But the voting is not a must for each person in the US. So quite a lot of people choose not to vote, especially the young generation. According to Fox News, one-in-five young voters between the ages of 18 and 35 said clearly that they wouldn’t vote for either of the two candidates. Just 12 percent of voters aged 35-54, and only nine percent of voters aged 55 and older said the same thing.

This is not only because young people don’t like Clinton or Trump, according to the Fortune magazine. The truth is that they are traditionally less likely to vote than their parents.

“Young people are not at an age in their life when they think politics or government has anything to do with them,” said Rodd Freitag, a political science professor at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, US. “But for the older age groups, they have a home, they pay taxes (税), they care about schools and the community.”

Many believe that the civic (公民的) education of an American youth is another reason why they don’t vote.

Students usually just do community services like cleaning the neighborhoods. This means they haven’t learned how to link real life problems to politics through voting, according to Christopher Beem, a politics professor at the Pennsylvania State University.

He said the country needs to help young people learn how to take part in politics and get them to see that they can make a difference.

1.What percentage of young voters wouldn’t go to vote?

A. 9 percent.B. 12 percent.C. 20 percent.D. 55 percent.

2.According to Rodd Freitag, young people are less likely to vote because ________.

A. they don’t like either of the candidates

B. their parents don’t like to vote

C. they don’t think it is a part of their life

D. they have no work and care little about living problems

3.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?

A. US Young Not Voting

B. US Young and Their President

C. Young People’s Power

D. Voting for the New US President

Do you love traveling? If the answer is yes, then have you ever thought about why? You may argue that traveling can help you enrich your knowledge, especially geographical and historical learning. It will provide more chances for you to enjoy food and try on clothes that you otherwise cannot possible have. A famous English author Francis Bacon (1561-1626) makes a point when he says that, “Travel, in the younger sort, is a part of education; in the elder, a part of experience.”

Evidence of leisure travel can be traced as far back as ancient Babylon. This year, according to the World Travel & Tourism Council, the 1 billionth tourist will cross an international boundary before the end of this month. That means that one in seven people on the planet traveled this year, something that would not have been possible a few decades ago. Around 20 years ago only the rich could travel.

While the US and France remain the two largest destinations for world travel, experts say much of the explosive growth in tourism has been to countries like Guatemala, the Dominican Republic, and the Ivory Coast, which weren’t even on the world tourism map a decade ago. The top five destinations in the world, according to the United Nations World Tourism Organization, are Paris, London, New York, the Mediterranean, Turkey.

Several factors have led to the boom in world travel. The prosperity (富裕) of people in Asia is one factor. People in Asian developing countries have lifted their incomes above middle-class levels in the past few years. And a lot of them have used their new wealth to travel. In addition, travel costs have been reduced thanks to the rapid development of transportation, and competition between airlines to give customers the best prices.

Everyone gathered around and Paddy read out loud, slowly, his tone growing sadder and sadder. The little headline said: BOXER RECEIVES LIFF SENTENCE.

Frank Cleary, aged 26, professional boxer, was today found guilty of the murder of Albert Gumming, aged 32, laborer, last July. The jury(陪审团) reached its decision after only ten minutes, recommending the most severe punishment to the court. It was, said the Judge, a simple case. Cumming and Cleary had quarreled violently at the Harbour Hotel on July 23rd and police saw Cleary kicking at the head of the unconscious Gumming. When arrested, Cleary was drunk but clear-thinking.

Cleary was sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour. Asked if he had anything to say, Cleary answered, “Just don’t tell my mother.”

“It happened over three years ago,” Paddy said helplessly. No one answered him or moved, for no one knew what to do. “Just don’t tell my mother,” said Fee numbly(麻木地). “And no one did! Oh, God! My poor, poor Frank!”

Paddy wiped the tears from his face and said. “Fee, pack your things. We’ll go to see him.”

She half-rose before sinking back, her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead. “I can't go,” she said without a hint of pain, yet making everyone feel that the pain was there. “It would kill him to see me. I know him so well—his pride, his ambition. Let him bear the shame alone, it’s what he wants. We’ve got to help him keep his secret. What good will it do him to see us?”

Paddy was still weeping, not for Frank, but for the life which had gone from Fee’s face, for the dying in her eyes. Frank had always brought bitterness and misfortune, always stood between Fee and himself. He was the cause of her withdrawal from his heart and the hearts of his children. Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away. But Paddy’s love for her was as deep and impossible to wipe out as hers was for Frank.

So he said, “Well, Fee, we won’t go. But we must make sure he is taken care of. How about if I write to Father Jones and ask him to look out for Frank?”

There was no excitement in the eyes, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks. “Yes, Paddy, do that. Only make sure he knows not to tell Frank we found out. Perhaps it would ease Frank to think for certain that we don’t know.”

1.Paddy cried because he thought ________.

A. what had happened to Frank was killing Fee

B. Frank should have told Fee what had happened

C. Frank did kill someone and deserved the punishment

D. Frank had always been a man of bad moral character

2.The underlined sentence “She half-rose before sinking back...” in Paragraph 6 shows that ________.

A. Fee was so heart-broken that she could hardly stand up

B. Fee didn’t want to upset Paddy by visiting Frank

C. Fee struggled between wanting to see Frank and respecting his wish

D. Fee couldn’t leave her family to go to see Frank

3.What can be inferred from the passage?

A. The jury and the judge agreed on the Boxer’s Sentence of Life Imprisonment.

B. Frank didn’t want his family to know the sentence to him, most probably out of his pride.

C. The family didn’t find out what had happened to Frank until 3 years later.

D. The police found Gumming unconscious, heavily struck by Frank.

4.What is Frank and Paddy’s probable relationship with Fee?

A. Frank is Fee’s son and Paddy is Fee’s brother.

B. Frank is Fee’s lover and Paddy is Fee’s husband.

C. Frank is Fee’s brother and Paddy is Fee’s lover.

D. Frank is Fee’s son and Paddy is Fee’s husband.
