题目列表(包括答案和解析)

American DanceWheels Foundation (ADF) is an artistic organization that trains those with disabilities, their able-bodied partners, ballroom dance teachers, adaptive therapists (特定疗法技 J/帀)in the art of Wheelchair Ballroom and Latin Dancing(WBLD ). In the dancing the male leads regardless whether he is standing or seated in a wheelchair. ADF focuses on social dancing and is not driven by competitions although they can progress to competitions if they choose. If you can move your wheelchair and take direction you can dance. Both who use either power or wheelchairs, full or part-time, are encouraged to participate.

ADF has now brought its WheelOne™ syllabus (教学大 纲)into two distinct areas of education: public schools and universities.

Public Schools

WBLD can be used as a physical education course for students with disabilities. It removes the separation that many other activities create since it requires a mix of these students with able-bodied partners. It encourages integration (融合)of disabled students with others in the school and the community overall. Wheelchair dancing also helps to build respect among the partners.

Universities

ADF is proud to announce that it has developed the first approved course in WBLD in the United States. This program started in February, 2008 and is developing new seated and standing wheelchair dancers each term.

The WheelOne™ syllabus teaches a specialized skill that is perfect for future dance teachers as well as future therapists. Able-bodied students learn all four aspects of the dances (able-bodied male, male wheelchair dancer, able-bodied female and female wheelchair dancer). Students will get a much better understanding of what it is like to be in a wheelchair.

Students will learn adaptations required for working with a different group of dancers. This training can even lead to a full ADF Certification Course Program.

     Ever since he first started practicing, Berkeley, California, psychologist Allen D. Kanner,
PhD, has been asking his younger clients (顾客) what they wanted to do when they grew
up. The answer usedtobe" nurse" , " astronaut" orsomeotheroccupation that appealed to
them. Today the answer is more likely to be "make money". For Kanner, one explanation
for that change can be found in advertising.
     "Advertising is a multi-million dollar project that's having an enormous influence on
child development, " says Kanner, who is also a member at a clinical (临床的) psychology
training program called the Wright Institute. "Advertising is growing rapidly and entering
new areas of childhood, like our schools. "
     According to Kanner, the result is not only the spread of materialistic(物质第一的 )
values among children, but also something he calls " self-love wounding" of children."
Thanks to advertising, " he says, " children have become convinced that they're unfortunate
if they don't have an endless supply of new products. "
     Now Kanner and several colleagues are up-in-arms with the psychologists and others
who are using psychological knowledge to help marketers target children more effectively.
They're shocked when they are told the secret behind why 3 to 7-year-olds are attracted
to toys that transform themselves into something else and why 8 to 12-year-olds love to
collect things. Last fall, Kanner and a group of 59 other psychologists and psychiatrists
(精神病学家) sent a letter speaking against psychologists' employment by advertisers
to American Psychologcal Association( APA) .
     In response, at its June meeting, APA's Board of Directors acted on a recommendation
from the Board for the Advancement of Psychology in the Public Interest and approved
the creation of a task force to study the issue. The task force will examine the research
on advertising's influence on children and their families. The group will look at the role
psychologists play in what some consider the exploitation (利用) of children and consider
how psychology can help reduce advertising's harmful effects and increase its positive
effects. The group will also explore implications(含意)for public policy.
1. Which of the following is a reason why children today tend to say they want to make
money when they grow up, according to Allen D. Kanner?______
A. Traditional occupations no longer hold so much
appeal to children today.
B. It's children's characteristic to collect things and to
want more constantly.
C. Advertising is a multi-million dollar project that
many children want as future job.
D. Advertisers' targeting of young consumers has made
them more materialistic.
2. Which of the following shows the negative effect advertising has had on children?______
A. Many children have hobbies like collecting stamps, coms or other things.
B. Many children are hard to satisfy and constantly want and ask for more.
C. Many children are so self-centered that they don't care about others.
D. Many children tend to wound others to please themselves.
3. Theunderlinedwords" up-in-arms " probablymean________.
A. angryB. interestedC. happyD. surprised
4. We can learn from the last paragraph that _________ .
A. American Psychological Association didn't take Allen D. Kanner and others' letter seriously
B. the task force will study how to use psychology to make advertising more beneficial
C. measures have been taken on the psychologists Allen D. Kanner spoken against
D. public policy has completely nothing to do with advertising
