第1题：
Children in the United States are exposed to many influences other than that of their families. Television is the most significant of these influences, because the habit of watching television usually begins before children start attending school.
Parents are concerned about the lack of quality in television programs for children. The degree of violence in many of these shows also worries them. Studies indicate that, when children are exposed to violence, they may become aggressive or insecure.
Parents are also concerned about the commercials (商业广告) that their children see on television. Many parents would like to see fewer commercials during programs for children. And some parents feel that these shows should not have any commercials at all because young minds are not mature enough to deal with the claims made by advertisers.
Educational television has no commercials and has programs for children that many parents approve of. The most famous of these is Sesame Street, which tries to give preschool children a head start in learning the alphabet (字母) and numbers. It also tries to teach children useful things about the world in which they live.
Even though most parents and educators give Sesame Street and shows like it high marks for quality, some critics argue that all television, whether educational or not, is harmful to children. These critics feel that the habit of watching hours of television every day turns children into bored and passive (被动的) consumers of their world rather than encouraging them to become active explorers of it
1). Which of the following statements is not based on the passage?
A. Parents are worried about the influence from television on their children.
B. Television has much influence on children.
C. Both parents and their children like watching educational television.
D. Some critics think that television is no good for children.
2). In what ways do children suffer from television?
A. They become the victims of social violence.
B. They spend hours watching television instead of doing school work.
C. The programs make the children lose interest in the world.
D. The programs make the children spend too much of their parents’ money.
3). Parents would not like their children to see commercials because ______
A. they think that their children are not old enough to handle advertising
B. commercials teach children alphabet and numbers
C. commercials help to sell products
D. they don’t like commercials
4). Educational television is widely appreciated because _____
A. it does have the same commercials as others
B. it offers programs for both children and their parents
C. many parents like the programs it offers for their children
D. children can learn some school subjects before they go to school
5). Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?
A. Watching Too Much Television Is Harmful to Young Minds.
B. Television Is More Harmful than Educational.
C. Television’s Influence on Children.
D. More Education Television.

第4题：
Back in the old days, when I was a child, we sat around the family round table at dinnertime and exchanged our daily experiences. It wasn't very organized, but everyone was recognized and all the news that had to be told was told by each family member.
We listened to each other and the interest was not put-on; it was real. Our family was a unit and we supported each other, and nurtured each other, and liked each other, and--we were even willing to admit--we loved each other.
Today, the family round table has moved to the local fast-food restaurant and talk is not easy,much less encouraged.
Grandma, who used to live upstairs, is now the voice on long distance, and the working parent is far too beaten down each day to spend evening relaxation time listening to the sandbox experience of an eager four-year-old.
So family conversation is as extinct as my old toys and parental questions such as "What have you been doing, Bobby? " have been replaced by "I'm busy, go watch television. "
And watch TV they do; count them by the millions.
But it's usually not children's television that children watch. Saturday morning, the children's hour, amounts to only about 8 percent of their weekly viewing.
Where are they to be found? Watching adult television, of course, from the Match Game in the morning, to the afternoon at General Hospital, from the muggings and battles on the evening news right through the family hour and past into Starsky and Hutch. That's where you find our kids, over five million of them, at 10 p.m., not fewer than a million until after midnight! All of this is done with parental permission.
Television, used well, can provide enriching experiences for our young people, but we must use it with some sense. When the carpet is clean, we turn off the vacuum cleaner. When the dishes are clean, the dishwasher turns itself off.
Not so the television, which is on from the sun in the morning to the moon at night and beyond !
Parents must exercise some control and show some concern about the cultural influence on the child whena program not intended for that child is viewed.Parents need to intervene.
Nonintervention may be a wise policy in international affairs,but the results of parental nonintervention will not be wise at all.
If we use television with some __________ , television can provide our young people with much knowledge.A.instruction of experts
B.judgment of our own
C.direction of engineers
D.indication of teachers答案：B解析：由第八段可知我们的年轻人在看电视时要有自我的判断力，只有这样电视节目才能带给我们更多有益的信息。所以B选项正确。 -

Media and Current Events
The media can impact current events.As a graduate student at Berkeley in the 1960s,I remember experiencing the events related to the People's Park that were occurnng on campus.Some of these events were given national media coverage in the press and on TV.I found it interesting to compare my impressions of what was going on with perceptions obtained from the news media.I could begin to see events of that time feed on news coverage.This also provided me with some healthy insights into the distinctions between these realities.
Electronic media are having a greater impact on the people's lives every day.People gather more and more of their impressions from representations.Television and telephone communications are linking people to a global village,or what one writer calls the electronic city.Consider the information that television brings into your home every day.Consider also the contact you have with others simply by using telephone.These media extend your consciousness and your contact.For example,the video coverage of the 1989 San Francisco earth- quake focused on"live action"such as the fires or the rescue efforts.This gave the viewer the impression of total disaster.Television coverage of the Iraqi War also developed an immediacy.CNN reported events as they happened.This coverage was distributed worldwide.Although most people were far away from these events, they developed some perception of these realities.
In 1992,many people watched in horror as riots broke out on a sad Wednesday evening in Los Angeles, seemingly fed by video coverage from helicopters.This event was triggered by the verdict（裁定）in the Rodney King beating.We are now in an age where the public can have access to information that enables it to make its own judgments,and most people,who had seen the video of this beating,could not understand how the jury（陪审团）was able to acquit（宣布无罪）the policemen involved.Media coverage of events as they occur also provides powerful feedback that influences events.This can have harmful results,as it seemed on that Wednesday night in Los Angeles.By Friday night the public got to see Rodney King on television pleading,"Can we all get along?"By Saturday,television seemed to provide positive feedback as the Los Angeles riot turned out into a rally for peace.The television showed thousands of people marching with banners and cleaning tools.Because of that,many more people turned out to join the peaceful event they saw unfolding（展开）on television.The real healing , of course , will take much longer , but electronic media will continue to be a part of that process.It can be inferred from the passage that______.
A:media coverage of events as they occur can have either good or bad results
B:most people who had seen the video of the Rodney King beating agree with the verdict of the jury
C:the 1992 Los Angeles riots lasted a whole week
D:Rodney King seemed very angry when he appeared on television on Friday答案：A解析：文章标题为“Media and Current Events"，而且第一段第一句提到“The media can impactcurrent events."随后又从正、反两个方面说明了媒体对时事的影响。由此可知，本篇文章最恰当的标题应为媒体对时事的影响，因此选择B项。
在第一段第三句“Some of these events were given national media coverage in the press andon TV.”中，" these events”指的是上一句中的在Berkeley校园中发生的事。由此可知，发生在Berkeley校园中的事件只有部分被国家媒体报道。
根据第二段第三句“Television and telephone communications are linking people to a globalvillage , or what one writer calls the electronic city.”可知，电视和电话把全球的人们联系在一起，成为一个地球村，有作家称之为电子城。由“village”的修饰词“global”不难推测出该电子城指的就是地球。
根据第三段第二、三句可知，1992年的事件是由Rodney King被打案中的裁决引发的，当公众能够从媒体获取信息时，就会作出自己的判断，进而对陪审团裁定涉事警员无罪感到不满。这才导致了事件恶化，直至最后演变为暴动。
第二段主要表明，电视与电话使全球人民的联系更为紧密：1989年的视频播报再现了旧金山地震时的火灾与救援现场；电视媒体对伊拉克战争进行了及时报道;CNN媒体让世界各地的人们对媒体事件耳闻目睹。第三段则主要表明，1992年的媒体报道引发了暴乱。由此可知，媒体报道是把双刃剑，对时事既有好的影响，也有坏的影响。 -

第24题：
问答题Directions: Some people say television has altered family life dramatically. Write an article for your school magazine, putting forward your views. You should write about 160 words on the Answer Sheet.正确答案：
Nowadays almost everyone in the world has access to TV. Television has caused significant changes in family life. Some of these changes have been positive while some have been negative.
Before television was invented, many families were informed by newspapers or the radio. The invention of television brought home a new choice. No other media could ever show people so much information. Even families in isolated areas can know for themselves what is happening in the world. This gives them the power to make their own decisions and form their own opinions.
However, the changes have not all been positive. Before television was widely available, families spent more time together talking and playing games. They seemed much closer to each other than modern families. Also, many people waste a lot of time watching poor quality programs which do not have a positive influence. People get a bad impression of the real world from such programs.
To sum up, there are strong positive effects of TV in terms of its informative role on family members, but it also has in many ways altered families in a negative sense.
