第二节:完形填空(30分)
I would like to suggest that for sixty to ninety minutes each evening all television broadcasting in the United States be forbidden by law.
Let us take a 36 , reasonable look at what the results might be if such a(n) 37 were accepted: families might use the time for a real family hour. They might 38 together after dinner and actually talk to one another. It is well known that many of our 39 -everything in fact, from the generation gap to the high divorce rate(离婚率)to some forms of 40 illness-are caused at least in part by 41 to communicate. By using the quiet family hour to 42 our problems, we might get to know each other better.
On evening when such talk is 43 , families could rediscover more active pastimes(消遣、娱乐). Freed from TV, forced to find their own activities, they might take a 44 together to watch the sunset 45 they might take a walk together. 46 free time and no TV, children and adults might rediscover reading. There is more entertainment(娱乐) in 47 than in a TV program. 48 report that the generation growing up with television can hardly write an English sentence, 49 at the college level. 50 is often learned from reading. A more literate(有文化的) new generation could be a product of the quiet hour.
A different 51 of reading might also be done as it was in the past: reading aloud. The quiet hour could become the story hour. When the 52 ends, the TV networks(电视网) might be forced to 53 with better shows in order to get us back from our newly discovered activities.
At first glance, this idea seems radical(激进的). How will we spend the time then? The fact is: it has been only twenty-five years 54 television came to control American free time. Those of us thirty-five and older can 55 childhoods without television. It wasn’t that difficult.
