Today,I read an interesting article about television viewing.In one experiment,families were paid to stop watching TV for either a week or a month. Many could not complete the task and some families quarreled or even fought.It was quite interesting and now I will say something about TV.

After TV became a product most families could afford,people bought and started to watch their new TVs.Both adults and children became less creative in problem solving, less able to focus on tasks,and less tolerant of flexible time.

In my family,we grew up with the TV on.Every weekend,we watched Gun Smoke and Bonanza together as a family.TV provides us with a comfortable background when we want to learn a foreign language at home,and it entertains us cheaply with live action sports,incomparable performing arts and important events of the world.In addition,it educates us about everything from the cells in our body to the galaxies in the universe.

Perhaps it’s not even practical to live without television unless our views change unexpectedly as we get older.I don’t think that TV damages us so much as it robs us of time that could be spent doing other things such as learning new skills,getting some exercise or doing volunteer work.

I was lucky to have a family that watched TV together.Today there seems to be a TV in every room of the house and there’s no need to agree on a program to watch.To watch TV or not is more of a question for adults than for us,and even though we all say we want to cut down the time we spend in front of the tube,we never really do.TV has us hypnotized!

61. The experiment in Paragraph 1 shows        

A. how interesting watching TV is       B. how much people like watching TV

C. whether people like watching TV      D. why people give up watching TV

62. After most families could afford a TV they        

A. fixed less attention on tasks            B. found it easier to solve problems

C. became more independent of TV        D. got more active at work

63. From Paragraph 3,we can learn that        

A. the author likes to spend weekends watching TV by himself

B. watching TV too much prevents the author from growing up well

C. TV programmes bring only fun to the author and his family

D. the author and his family get a lot of valuable experience in watching TV

64. According to the author which of the following is TRUE?

A. It is a waste of time to watch TV .   B. We benefit little when we watch TV.

C. It is hard to live without television.   D. We change our views as we live with television.

65. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph implies that          

A. we depend too much on TV       B. watching TV makes us united.

C. TV robs us of valuable time       D. TV changes our daily life

科目:高中英語 來源:2011-2012學(xué)年四川省成都市鐵路中學(xué)高二5月月考英語試卷(帶解析) 題型:閱讀理解

It’s a nightmare for Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST): within a week,two students committed suicide by jumping off dorm buildings.對于整個華中科技大學(xué)來說,這簡直就是場噩夢:一周之內(nèi),兩名學(xué)生在宿舍跳樓自殺。
Officials from the university are reluctant to give interviews.校方官員們不愿接受采訪。
“We had a hard time calming down students who were shocked at the suicides,” said Zhang Jingyuan,one official of HUST.
“Media coverage may arouse some students’ negative emotions again.Suicide can be contagious,” Zhang said.他說,“媒體的報(bào)道將會再次引發(fā)學(xué)生的消極情緒,自殺是會傳染的!
The university reacted promptly to the first suicide on October 23.對于今年10月23號發(fā)生的第一起自殺事件,華中科技大學(xué)迅速做出應(yīng)急措施。
Advisors and class leaders conducted dorm-to-dorm checks to find students suffering depression.Then psychologists offered one-on-one counseling to them.輔導(dǎo)員和班長們走訪了每個宿舍,找出遭遇抑郁的學(xué)生。然后,心理咨詢師會為這些學(xué)生提供一對一的心理咨詢。
Notice boards publicizing tips for identifying peers’ mental problems and offering help were set up in front of dorm buildings.Leaflets carrying similar information were handed out to each dorm.宿舍樓前豎起一些布告欄,為同學(xué)們普及關(guān)于如何發(fā)現(xiàn)身邊人遭遇心理問題并提供幫助的小貼士。印有類似內(nèi)容的小冊子也被分發(fā)給每個寢室。
However,the second suicide came seven days later.然而,七天后,第二起自殺事件發(fā)生了。
Both students were described as men of few words.Their schoolmates didn’t see anything to indicate suicide.據(jù)周圍人描述,這兩名學(xué)生都很少言寡語。他們的同學(xué)都沒有覺察到任何自殺前的征兆。
Zhang revealed that the two students had been bothered by mental disorders.But the school didn’t know this until the students’ close friends outside school and their parents unveiled the truth after the suicides.章勁元透露,這兩名學(xué)生曾經(jīng)飽受心理疾病的困擾。但是學(xué)校對此并不知情,他們校外的好友和家長也是在自殺事件發(fā)生后才說出實(shí)情。
According to Zhang,there are only three full-time counselors working in the university’s counseling center for its 60,000 students.He complained: “It’s unrealistic to rely only on counselors to detect students’ mental problems.”據(jù)章勁元說,全校共有六萬名學(xué)生,但學(xué)校的心理咨詢中心只有三位全職心理咨詢師。他抱怨說:“僅僅依靠心理咨詢師來察覺學(xué)生的心理問題,這是不現(xiàn)實(shí)的!
Effective prevention comes from long-term education for life instead of temporary intervention to meet an emergency,said Hu Yi’an.Hu delivers a course of lectures on life and death at Guangzhou University.He worries that universities have paid little attention to education for life.有效的預(yù)防來自于長期的生命教育,而并非遭遇緊急狀況時的臨時干預(yù),胡毅安(音譯)說。他在廣州大學(xué)教授以生命和死亡為主題的課程。他為各大高校給予生命教育的關(guān)注少之又少而擔(dān)憂。
“Education for life helps students respect and love life so they won’t resort to ending their lives when they have difficulties,” said Hu.“生命教育可以幫助學(xué)生尊重、熱愛生命,這樣一來,當(dāng)他們遇到困難的時候就不會選擇結(jié)束生命了,” 胡毅安說。
According to Hu,the principles can be incorporated into everyday teaching.胡毅安還表示,這些觀念可以融入到日常教學(xué)中去。
Hu is also concerned that some universities are conveying discriminatory message that will hold back students from seeking help.胡老師也很擔(dān)心一些大學(xué)傳遞出帶有歧視性的信息會使得學(xué)生們不愿去尋求幫助。
When HUST conducted the dorm-to-dorm examination,students with poor academic performance were paid special attention.In March,Peking University also released a controversial policy,which required teachers to have a chat with students “with biased thinking”.當(dāng)華中科技大學(xué)校方挨個宿舍進(jìn)行走訪時,學(xué)習(xí)成績較差的學(xué)生也被給予了特別關(guān)照。三月份,北京大學(xué)也推行了一項(xiàng)備受爭議的政策,該新規(guī)要求教師們要找那些學(xué)生中的“激進(jìn)分子”談話。
However,Hu suggested that students step out of their comfort zone to seek real-life communication.
【小題1】The underlined word “reluctant” in paragraph 2 probably means “       ”.

A.willingB.unhappyC.refusedD.decided
