【题目】 Daniel Anderson, a famous psychologist, believes it’s important to distinguish television’s influences on children from those of the family. We tend to blame TV, he says, for problems it doesn’t really cause, overlooking our own roles in shaping children’s minds.

One traditional belief about television is that it reduces a child’s ability to think and to understand the world. While watching TV, children do not merely absorb words and images. Instead, they learn both explicit and hidden meanings from what they see. Actually, children learn early the psychology of characters in TV shows. Furthermore, as many teachers agree, children understand far more when parents watch TV with them, explaining new words and ideas. Yet, most parents use an educational program as a chance to park their kids in front of the set and do something in another room.

Another argument against television is that it replaces reading as a form of entertainment. But according to Anderson, the amount of time spent watching television is not related to reading ability. TV doesn’t take the place of reading for most children; it takes the place of similar sorts of recreation, such as listening to the radio and playing sports. Things like parent’s educational background have a stronger influence on a child’s reading. “A child’s reading ability is best predicted by how much a parent reads,” Anderson says.

Traditional wisdom also has it that heavy television-watching lowers IQ scores and affects school performance. But here, too, Anderson notes that no studies have proved it. In fact, research suggests that it’s the other way around. “If you’re smart young, you’ll watch less TV when you’re older,” Anderson says. Yet, people of lower IQ tend to be lifelong television viewers.

For years researchers have attempted to show that television is dangerous to children. However, by showing that television promotes none of the dangerous effects as conventionally believed, Anderson suggests that television cannot be condemned without considering other influences.

【1】Which of the following is most related to children’s reading ability?

A.Radio-listening.B.Television-watching.

C.Parents’ reading list.D.Parents’ educational background.

【2】Anderson believes that ______.

A.the more a child watches TV, the smarter he is

B.the younger a child is, the more he watches TV

C.the smarter a child is, the less likely he gets addicted to TV

D.the less a child watches TV, the better he performs at school

【3】What is the main purpose of the passage?

A.To advise on the educational use of TV.

B.To describe TV’s harmful effects on children.

C.To explain traditional views on TV influences.

D.To present Anderson’s unconventional ideas.

【答案】

【1】D

【2】C

【3】D

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。著名心理学家丹尼尔·安德森认为，将电视对孩子的影响与家庭的影响区分开来是很重要的。他认为电视并没有真正造成问题，并同时反驳了三个反对电视的理由。

【1】细节理解题。根据文章第三段中Things like parent’s educational background have a stronger influence on a child’s reading.（父母的教育背景对孩子的阅读有很大的影响。）可知父母的教育背景与孩子的阅读能力关系最大。故选D。

【2】推理判断题。根据文章第四段中“If you’re smart young, you’ll watch less TV when you’re older,” Anderson says. （“如果你年轻时聪明，长大后就会少看电视，”安德森说。）可知Anderson认为，一个孩子越聪明，就越不容易对电视上瘾。反观四个选项，只有选项C“一个孩子越聪明，看电视越少”符合，所以答案为C。

【3】推理判断题。根据文章第一段Daniel Anderson, a famous psychologist, believes it’s important to distinguish television’s influences on children from those of the family. We tend to blame TV, he says, for problems it doesn’t really cause, overlooking our own roles in shaping children’s minds.（著名心理学家丹尼尔·安德森认为，将电视对孩子的影响与家庭的影响区分开来是很重要的。他说，我们倾向于责怪电视，因为它并没有真正造成问题，而忽视了我们在塑造孩子们思想方面的作用。）以及全文都在表达Anderson的电视对于孩子的影响没有那么大的观点，与传统观点不同，所以答案为D。

I am glad to know that Tang poetry appeals you so much. Now, I’m writing to satisfy your burnt curiosity. What’s more, I’d like to offer you some advices on understanding it.

Tang poetry, which represents the traditional Chinese culture, have a splendid history and enjoys a great reputation international. With the minimum of words, it gives a clear picture and conveys a certain emotion. However, Tang poems are easy to recite because they usually have a strong rhythm.

As for learning strategies, I want to give you some suggestions. First of all, you’d better start with the works of some representative poets, among them Li Bai, Du Fu and Bai Juyi were the most outstanding ones. What’s more, it is necessary to get some relevant background of knowledge about the poets. In addition, reciting one poem repeatedly is the best approach to get the hang of it.

Hope you can adopt our suggestions.

【题目】Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.

According to a new study just published in Psychological Science, any one person seen in a group just seems better looking than when viewed alone. The reason: human eyes average things out, and when it comes to faces, average is usually good.

【1】 Facial analysis studies show the symmetry(对称) is almost always regarded as prettier than asymmetry and the most beautiful faces are the ones on which eyes are no more or less than a certain distance apart, and the forehead, chin, cheeks and other features take up no more than a certain share of the whole. It’s the reason that models may be gorgeous but can prove awfully difficult to tell apart.

“Perhaps,” says psychological scientist Drew Walker of the University of California, San Diego, in a statement that accompanied the release of the study, “beautiful people are all alike, but every unattractive person is unattractive in their own ways.”

To test how that plays out in a group setting, Walker and his UCSD collaborator, psychological scientist Edward Vul, recruited 130 undergraduate students and showed them pictures of 100 different men and women. 【2】 Other times they were cut out to show just one face at a time. Still other times, the faces were taken out of context and arranged on a simple grid (网格) of either four, nine or 16 faces.

Consistently, the researchers found, the sole shots were regarded as less attractive than the faces viewed in a group—whether in a real setting or on the grid. This was true regardless of the gender of the subjects and regardless of whether they would broadly be described as following most definitions of attractiveness or unattractiveness. 【3】

The explanation for the phenomenon, they believe, is the averaging effect and how it works. 【4】 “Individuals with complementary features—one person with narrow eyes and one person with wide eyes—would enjoy a greater boost in attractiveness when seen together, as compared to groups composed of individuals who have similar features,” Walker and Vul write.

A. Both the gorgeous and non- gorgeous improved by being with other people.

B. Sometimes the subjects in the pictures were shown as part of a three-person group.

C. It turns out that people don’t even need to be in an actual group to look more attractive.

D. It’s no secret that our definition of beauty is defined by a very clear set of physical norms.

AB. A big nose in the company of a small nose does not look bigger still; rather, both noses move closer to the average.

AC. While being average-looking might seem like a bad thing, the research suggests that’s not necessarily the case for attractiveness.
