Early experimental researchers compared the play of children who had seen aggressive(攻击性的) behavior on television with the play of a control group of children who had watched nonviolent programs.Worry was increased by findings that showed a higher level of aggressive play in the violent-television group.Other researchers attempted to determine whether violent programs simply caused higher energy levels in children or actually caused them to learn violent and antisocial(反社会的) behavior.The results of different studies conflicted.Some researchers thought that televised violence actually had an active cathartic(引导宣泄)effect,allowing some viewers to release high tensions;these findings,however,were not more clear in further studies.Other scholars pointed out that both prosocial and antisocial behavior can be learned from television.Social scientists find it especially difficult to figure out exactly the subtle,cumulative(积累的)effects of viewing a broad variety of television programs throughout childhood.Telling the possible effects of television from other influences at home and at school is also difficult.Present research suggests that higher levels of antisocial behavior can be traced to television viewing,but further study needs to be done to make it clear or not. Because of the long-standing tradition in the U.S.of freedom of speech and of the press,the government would probably not attempt to directly limit or censor(审查) the appearance of violence on television.Among the networks and producers,pressure from some citizens continues to be balanced by increasing popularity of high-energy action-adventure programs.36.What is the passage mainly about?A.Violence in television programs.B.Levels of violence in action-adventure series and cartoons.C.Educational programs for children.D.Researches on television programs.提示:电视节目中的暴力内容对儿童成长的影响一直是美国社会关注的问题。有人认为孩子从电视节目的暴力内容中学会了使用暴力;有人却认为电视中的暴力内容对孩子有正面影响,有助于他们宣泄紧张的情绪;还有人认为暴力内容对观众,特别是儿童的影响有待于进一步研究。这篇文章讨论了惊险动作片和卡通片中的暴力镜头对儿童的影响问题,以及对这一问题的三种不同观点。参阅上述主题,A项为正确答案。答案:A37.Those researchers who believe violence on TV has an active effect on viewers think that_.A.it teaches people not to use violence to settle conflictsB.it causes higher energy levels in childrenC.it helps let out peoples too strong emotion(情绪)D.it helps people to fight various social ugly and ill things before them提示:第二段倒数第二句介绍了对暴力内容持支持态度的人的观点,即 “televised violence actually had a positive cathartic effect,allowing some viewers to release high tensions”。选项中只有C项表达了这一观点。答案:C38.A “prosocial” behavior is one _.A.that is against the social rulesB.that meets the expectation of the societyC.that a child shows in communication with peopl
