广东普高专升本英语(阅读理解)模拟试卷2
常规阅读
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 stated and implied 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 their parents watch TV with them, explaining new words and ideas. Yet, most parents use an educational program as a chance to seat their kids in front of the TV 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 parents\’ educational background have a stronger influence on a child’s reading. \\
1.By watching TV, children learn________.(B)
A. images through words
B. both stated and implied meanings
C. more about images than words
D. little about people’s psychology
解析:根据第二段第二、三句“…children do not merely absorb words and images. Instead, they learn both stated and implied meanings from what they see.”可知,孩子们看电视时,不仅能理解话语和画面,还能从他们看到的现象中领悟到一些直接陈述的和暗含的意思,所以选项B正确,选项A、C不符合题意;根据第二段第四句“…children learn early the psychology of characters in TV shows.”可知,孩子们还能从电视节目里了解到人物的心理特征,因此选项D描述错误。故选B。
2.According to the passage, an educational program is best watched by children________.(C)
A. on their own
B. with other kids
C. with their parents
D. with their teachers
解析:根据第二段倒数第二句“…children understand far more when their parents watch TV with them…”可知,如果父母陪着孩子们一起看电视的话,孩子们会理解得更多。故选C。
3.Which of the following is most related to children’s reading ability?(D)
A. Listening to the radio.
B. Watching television.
C. Parents’ reading list.
D. Parents’ educational background.
解析:根据第三段倒数第二句“Things like parents’ educational background have a stronger influence on a child’s reading.”可知,父母的教育背景对孩子的阅读能力有很大的影响。故选D。
4.Anderson believed that________.(C)
A. the more children watch TV, the smarter they are
B. the younger children are, the more they watch TV
C. the smarter children are, the less likely they are more interested in watching TV
D. the less children watch TV, the better they perform at school
解析:根据第四段倒数第二句“If you’ re smart young, you’ll watch less TV when you’ re older…”可知,小时候越聪明,长大之后看电视的次数就越少。因此,选项C正确。选项A与文章大意不符;选项B和选项D文中并未提及。故选C。
5.What is the purpose of the passage?(D)
A. To advise that TV should be used for educational purposes.
B. To describe the harmful effects of TV on children.
