The Influence of Television

About six years ago I was eating lunch in a restaurant in New York city when a woman and a young boy sat down at the next table.__________(46) At one point the woman asked :”So, how have you been? ”And the boy? who could not have been more than seven or eight years old? replied. ” Frankly, I ‘ve been feeling a little depressed latterly. ”

This incident stuck in my mind deeply.___________ (47) As far as I can remember. My friends and I didn’t find out we were “depressed ”until we were in high school.

The evidence of a change in children has increased steadily in recent years._________(48) Children speak more like adults, dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used to .

Whether this is good or bad is difficult to say, but it certainly is different .Childhood as it once was no longer exists, why?

Human development is based not only on innate biological states ,but also on patterns of access to social knowledge. Movement from on social tote (生搬硬套) to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new status.._____________(49) Traditionally ,we tell sixth grades things we keep hidden from fifth graders.

In the last 30 years , however ,a secret??revelation machine has been installed in 98 percent of the American homes._____________ (50) Television passes information ,and indiscriminately , to all viewers alike, be they children or adults. Unable to resist the temptation, many children turn attention from printed texts to the less challenging ,more vivid moving pictures.

Actually , communication through print allows for great deal of control over the social information to which children have access. Children must read simple books before thy can read complex materials.

A. it conformed my growing belief that children are changing.

B. Children nowadays are influenced by television.

C. I couldn’t help overhearing parts of their conversation.

D. Children have always bee taught adult secrets, but slowly and in stages.

E. Children don’t seem childlike anymore.

F. It is called television.

答案：46. C 前一句講作者在餐館用餐時看到鄰桌的婦女和孩子，后一句講的是談話的具體內(nèi)容，所以本句應(yīng)該選C“我無意中聽到了他們的部分談話內(nèi)容”。

47.A.前一句說的是“這件事給我留下了深刻的印象”，下一句說的是“在我的記憶中：直到我和我的朋友們盡了高中后才知道什么事抑郁”，是對本句話的舉例說明。所以選項A“這件事使我更加確信現(xiàn)在的小孩子和以往不同了”是正確的選項。本句中的it指代的是前句話的“這件事情”。

48.E.從下一句的舉例中(從穿著打扮，言談舉止上來看更像是大人了)可以得知本句話主要說的是孩子們看起來不再像是孩子了。

49.D.前一句說的是“從一個社會角色到另一個的轉(zhuǎn)變涉及到學(xué)習(xí)那個新階段的秘密”。下一句說的是“傳統(tǒng)意義上講，人們讓六年級的孩子了解五年級時不知道的事情?！币虼耍珼選項“孩子們會循序漸進的被告知大人們的秘密”是正確的選項。

50.F. 前一句說的是“但是，在過去的三十年間，一種設(shè)備已經(jīng)進駐了98%的美國家庭”。接下來的這一句應(yīng)該說的是這是個什么樣的設(shè)備，所以F選項“這個設(shè)備就是電視機”是正確的選項。
