8.I would like to suggest that for sixty minutes each evening,right after the early evening news,all television broadcasting be banned by law.
Let us take a serious look at what the results might be if such a suggestion were accepted.Families might use the time for a real family hour.They might sit around together after dinner and actually talk to one another.It is well known that many of our problems-everything,in fact,from the generation gap to the high divorce rate to some forms of mental illnesses-are caused at least in part by the failure to communicate.We do not tell each other what is disturbing us.The result is emotional difficulty of one kind or another.By using the quiet family hour to discuss our problems,we might get to know each other better,and to like each other better.
On evenings when such talk is unnecessary,families could rediscover more active entertainments.Freed from TV,forced to find their own activities,they might take a ride together to watch the sunset.Or they might take a walk together and see the neighborhood with fresh,new eyes.
With free time and no TV,children and adults might rediscover reading.There i s more entertainment in a good book than in a month of typical TV programming.Educators report that the generation growing up with television can hardly write an English sentence,even at the college level.Writing is often learned from reading.A more cultured new generation could be a product of the quiet hour.
At first glance,the idea of an hour without TV seems radical (激进的).What will parents do without the electronic baby-sitter?How will we spend the time?But it's not radical at all.It has been only twenty-five years since television came to control our free time.Those of us thirty-five and older can remember childhoods without television,spent partly with radio-which at least involved the listener's imagination-but also with reading,learning,talking,playing games and inventing new activities.It wasn't that difficult,honest.The truth is that we had a ball.

28.The author's suggestion can helpA.
A.people solve emotional problems
B.draw people's attention to the evening news
C.college students get along well with others
D.develop strong neighborhood relationships
29.According to the text,good booksB.
A.offer as much knowledge as TV does   
B.are more entertaining than TV
C.should be made into films            
D.cannot be found easily
30.In the author's opinion,life without TVC.
A.is not good for children's imagination  
B.will be accepted by more people
C.used to be a lot of fun   
D.is not worth living
31.What would be the best title for the text?B
A.The future of television     
B.Turning off TV:a quiet hour
C.Saying goodbye to television   
D.Effects of television on humans.

分析 这是一篇谈论在美国由于缺少沟通带来的一系列问题,并提出合理建议的议论文,文章开头作者就提出了自己的观点,并且接下来提出了一些建议.

解答 ABCB
28 A  细节理解题.根据第二段中的"we might get to know each other better,and to like each other better"可知接受作者的建议能够解决情感交流的问题.故选A.
29.B  细节理解题.根据第四段中的"There is more entertainment in a good book than in a month of typical TV programming."B项正确.
30.C 推理判断题.根据最后一段中对没有电视的描述…but also with reading,learning,talking,playing games and inventing new activities…The truth is that we had a ball可知没有电视的年代,人们也很有乐趣.故选C.
31.B  主旨大意题.文章开头就点明了文章的主旨I would like to suggest that for sixty minutes each evening,所以B项最适合做标题.

点评 阅读理解题测试考生在阅读基础上的逻辑推理能力,要求考生根据文章所述事件的逻辑关系,对未说明的趋势或结局作出合理的推断;或根据作者所阐述的观点理论,对文章未涉及的现象、事例给以解释.考生首先要仔细阅读短文,完整了解信息,准确把握作者观点.
