每日一練，專升本英語(yǔ)閱讀理解練習(xí)(10.10)

　　Television has now come to nearly every family. It has played a very important part in people's life. School-age children in the US watch TV about 25 hours a week.

　　Some people feel that television is good for children because it helps them learn about their country and the world. With the help of programs of education， children do better in schools. Other people feel that there are too many programs about love and crime on TV, and that even programs of education don't help children a lot. Children simply watch too much television，so they don't do a lot of other important things for their education. Children of three to six learn to speak their language and talk with people. When they are watching TV, they are only listening to the language，and they aren't talking with anyone. When school-age children watch TV, they read less. Because of this，they don't learn to read or write quickly in schools.

　　All children learn by doing，and they need time to play in order to learn about the world. When they watch TV, they play less. They also have less time to communicate with their parents and friends，and they have less time for sports.

　　Recently，fifteen families in Denver have decided to stop watching TV for a month. At first it was difficult，but there were soon a lot of good changes. The children read, played and exercised more, and the family became full of joy. But at the end of the month all the families began to watch TV as much as before. No family was able to give up watching TV completely.

　　[考點(diǎn)]推理判斷題

　　【精析】A 根據(jù)第二段第三句“…there are too many programs about love and crime on TV, and that even programs of education don't help children a lot.”可知，其他人認(rèn)為電視上有太多關(guān)于愛(ài)情和犯罪活動(dòng)的節(jié)目，甚至教育類節(jié)目也不能對(duì)兒童有很大幫助。由此可推知，一些人認(rèn)為電視對(duì)兒童有害，是因?yàn)殡娨暽嫌刑喙?jié)目對(duì)兒童沒(méi)有好處。故選A。

　　【參考答案】D

　　[考點(diǎn)]事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題

　　【精析】D 根據(jù)最后一段中列舉的例子可推知，人們?cè)跊](méi)有電視的情況下依然可以生活，所以A項(xiàng)不正確;根據(jù)第二段第一句“Some people feel that television is good for children because it helps them learn about their country and the world.”和第三段第一句“…they need time to play in order to learn about the world.”可知，兒童可以通過(guò)電視來(lái)了解世界，還可以通過(guò)玩耍的方式來(lái)了解這個(gè)世界，所以B項(xiàng)說(shuō)法太過(guò)絕對(duì);根據(jù)第二段倒數(shù)第三句“When they are watching TV…they aren't talking with anyone.”可知，當(dāng)兒童看電視時(shí)，他們只是在聽(tīng)語(yǔ)言，他們不跟任何人說(shuō)話，所以C項(xiàng)不正確;根據(jù)第二段倒數(shù)第二句“When school-age children watch TV, they read less.”和第三段第二句“When they watch TV, they play less.”可知，當(dāng)兒童看電視時(shí)，他們讀書和玩耍就少了，所以D項(xiàng)正確。故選D。

　　5.What is the author's attitude towards television?

　　A.Objective. B.Suspicious. C.Positive. D.Appreciative.

　　【參考答案】A

　　[考點(diǎn)]觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題

　　【精析】A 通讀全文可知，作者在第一段指出“美國(guó)的學(xué)齡兒童看電視過(guò)多”這一現(xiàn)象;第二、三段陳述了不同的人對(duì)此現(xiàn)象的看法：一些人認(rèn)為電視對(duì)兒童有益，另一些人卻認(rèn)為電視對(duì)兒童有害;最后一段通過(guò)一個(gè)具體的事例表明：人們?cè)跊](méi)有電視的情況下可以生活得很好，然而人們又不能完全放棄看電視。作者通篇都是在陳述有關(guān)電視的事實(shí)和不同的人對(duì)此的觀點(diǎn)，但并未發(fā)表個(gè)人的意見(jiàn)，因此作者對(duì)電視持客觀的態(tài)度。objective：客觀的，就事論事的;suspicious：持懷疑態(tài)度的，不信任的;positive：積極的，表示贊同的;appreciative：感激的，欣賞的。故選A。
