A.have watched a lot of TVB.not be interested in mathC.be unable to go to collegeD.have had computers in their bedrooms答案:A2解析:推理判断题。第二段中对加利福尼亚北部 400 名三年级学生的研究发现,卧室里有电视的学生要比卧室里没有电视的学生考试分数低 8 分左右。据此推断考试分数低的原因可能是看电视太多。故选 A 项。2.What is the researchers understanding of the New Zealand study results?A.Poorly motivated 26-year-olds watch more TV.B.Habits of TV-watching reduce learning interest.C.TV-watching leads to lower education levels of the 15-year-olds.D.The connection between TV and education levels is difficult to explain.答案:D解析:细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句话可知,对大约 1000 名新西兰成年人的研究结论是:教育水平低不一定是因为看电视过多,但也不能排除。据此推断观看电视和受教育的水平之间的联系很难解释。故选 D 项。3.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A.More time should be spent on computers.B.Children should be forbidden from watching TV.C.TV sets shouldnt be allowed in childrens bedrooms.D.Further studies on high-achieving students should be done.答案:C解析:细节理解题。倒数第二段提到卧室里有电视机没有电脑的孩子考试得分最低,而卧室里有电脑没有电视机的孩子得分最高;最后一段的研究结论是:这项研究虽然不能证明是卧室内的电视导致了孩子考试分数低,但为孩子卧室内不应该放有电视机增加了证据。据此判断不能在孩子卧室放有电视机。故选 C 项。4.What would be the best title for this text?A.Computers or TelevisionB.Effects of Television on ChildrenC.Studies on TV and College EducationD.Television and Childrens Learning Habits答案:B解析:主旨大意题。第一段指出,几项有关电视对孩子的影响的研究结果表明:看电视过多会对孩子的学习能力造成危害,甚至会减少孩子升入大学的机会。随后几段分别对几项具体调查研3究进行陈述,并针对观看电视与考试成绩、教育水平之间的因果关系分别得出几个不同的结论。概括全文可知本文主要讲述的是电视对孩子的影响。故选 B 项。B (2015·黑龙江哈尔滨高三统考)Hunger is the greatest motive for the inexperienced cook.But many people are now worried that we are producing a generation without the slightest idea of how to cooka generation that is frightened to cook.I have just received a handout from Focus on Food，which is running a competition to get children back into the kitchen.Has television cooking become a replacement for the real thing？Is this an age where famous professional cooks have turned cooking into a sort of show，with dishes far too difficult for the beginner to copy?I decided to ask my oldest daughter，Miranda，for her opinion.Are children learning enough about the importance of good cooking？Do they know cooking is a basic life skill？Sociology and other “new” subjects are all very well，but without the ability to cook，or to understand the pleasure and principles of good food and its relationship to good health，are we really preparing them for adult life?Miranda started her cooking at the age of nine，when she decided to enter the Sainsburys Future Cook competition.She was motivated by a different kind of greed：the first prizea trip to Disney World.The problem，from the parental point of view，was that if she made it through to the regional (区域性的) finals，she would have to cook her meal in front of the judges.Some 30,000 children entered and she made it through as the youngest regional finalist.Now she had to learn to cook.Her hands were not even big enough to hold the knife and slice the onions.Six Saturdays running we ate the same lunchMozzarella meatballs in fresh tomato juice and blueberry.4First，she cooked by my side，then alone with timings and instructions.Finally，she went alone against the clock.The kitchen looked like a battlefield，but she had gained victory.The tiny be­capped figure then stood in an unknown Bristol hotel，looking like a professional who had been at the stove for years.She didnt win，but she came home with 50 and the most valuable part of them all：confidence.【解题导语】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者的女儿参加了一个以让孩子回归厨房为目的的烹饪比赛，为此孩子努力学习烹饪，虽然最后没有赢得比赛，但却赢得了信心。1The competition run by Focus on Food is intended for _.Achildren BparentsCteachers Dchefs解析：选 A。推理判断题。根据第一段第三句“.Focus on Food，which is running a competition to get children back into the kitchen.”可知，这个比赛是为孩子们举办的。故选 A。2Why does the writer think cooking is so important?AIt is an easy way to keep healthy.BIt helps develop relationships.CIt is a necessary skill for life.
