Like almost anything else,television has its good and bad sides. One should surely thank its inventors for the joy and interest that it has brought into the lives of the old,the sick,and the lonely―all those who,without it,would have no pleasure and no window on the world.
1 No newspaper has ever reached so many people and shown so clearly what was happening right now in their own country and everywhere else. TV not only gives the news instantly,it also shows it in pictures more powerful than words. 2 Millions of people now have seen the effects of a battle,a flood,a fire,a crime,disasters of every sort on the screen.
3 Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world. They want to imitate what they see. They do believe that the violence they see is normal and acceptable. By the time they are out of high school,most young people have watched about 15 ,000 hours of television,and have seen about 18,000 killings or other acts of violence. All educators and psychologists agree that the " television generations" are more violent than their parents and grandparents.
4 Getting used to TV shows,where everything is quick and entertaining,they do not have the patience to read an article without pictures;to read a book that requires thinking;to listen to a teacher who doesn't do funny things like the people on children's programs. And they expect all problems to be solved happily in ten,fifteen or thirty minutes. That's the time it takes on the screen.
5 It is certain that,along with its benefits,it has brought many serious problems. To these problems we must soon find a solution because,whether we like it or not,television is here to stay.
A. Unfortunately,television's influence has been extremely harmful to the young.
B. It can be said that TV has brought reality to the public.
C. In truth,television has opened windows in everybody's life.
D. Is television as harmful as they think it is?
E. It is certain that television has deeply changed our lives and our society.
F. According to the same experts,the young are also less patient.
G. Many people now worry about the effect that TV has on the young,and on society in general.

2. B考查遞進關(guān)系。從上文的"TV not only gives the news instantly.. . shows it in pictures more powerful than words"到下文的"the effects of a battle,a flood,a fire,a crime,disasters of every sort on the screen"可以看出電視帶來的是現(xiàn)實的直觀效果。故答案為8.
3. A考查轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。本段講的是電視給青少年帶來的不良影響,A選項合適。

We can see lots of ladies dancing in the square or open spaces after dinner time. It is a very harmonious scene 1 someone fires guns and releases his dogs 2 (threat) these ladies to escape,just because their music is too loud. Some people think this noisy music has 3 (serious) affected their life,so that the dancing ladies should 4 ( drive) out of public places. But I can't agree with them.
I have two reasons to support my views. In the first place,most dancing ladies are retired women,they finally have extra time to do something they like to do―get together to dance,make more new friends 5 share the same habit 6 them,and build up their body as well. As a matter of fact,some dancing lady is a loner without family members at home,and the dancing group is like their second home. We should not take 7 their right of dancing.
In the second place,squares and open spaces are public places;everyone can use them for any actions of entertainment 8 relaxation. If someone complains about the noisy music,they can go 9 (straight) to the dance group and ask them to turn it down. We don't have to solve this problem by an extreme way.
As a consequence,we cannot force the dancing ladies away,because it is a public place,and why can't we show some mercy10 a group of retired ladies who just need a place to dance together?

Because of poor childhood reading habits,most people read up to 10 times slower than they actually could. 1 But,by employing certain basic techniques along with some consistent practice,your reading speed and accuracy will increase without taking away from your overall reading comfort.
1. Identify why you're reading.
Before you start reading,you need to seek out your motivation. 2 Think about why you're reading the book in front of you. Is it for fun? A job? School? Your reasoning will help you find the right frame of mind for the task and aid in absorbing the information more efficiently.
2. Narrow down on the important parts.
3 A good speedreader is also smart. Learn to read selectively and change speeds. Think back to your initial reading goals. If you know which topics are essential,don't be afraid to slow down during the important areas to maximize your retention (i己個乙力) . 4 Don't let an unimportant paragraph get the best of you.
3. Use a guide.
Training your eyes to pick up the reading pace and maintain it is the final step. Naturally,the eyes tend to pause or drift from the page―even for a split second―during regular reading. In reading an entire book,the amount of time lost can be significant. 5 The easiest way to control them is with a guide,which can be as simple as your index finger (食指) or a pen.
A. Another thing to consider is the type of book you are going to read.
B. In that case,find a book and a quiet place to read.
C. We can't expect an average reader to become a "speedreader" overnight.
D. So it's critical to keep the eyes on the page.
E. Conversely,you should also be ready to skip paragraphs and unnecessary words.
F. Don't try to read through each page at top speed.
G. Why you read is essential for deciding how fast to read.
