magazine c. book reviewd. science textbookcfor decades, families settled on the sofa to share the latest news and tv series, until additional bedroom tv, computer games and the internet almost put an end to family quarrles over who held the remote control. now, however, the traditional living room scene is making a comeback. a study by the communications watchdog ofcom has found families are once again gathering around the main television set, but they are bringing their pads and smartphones with them. “the 1950s living room is making a comeback as a family entertainment centre,” said jane rumble, head of media research at ofcom. “we are watching on much better, bigger, and more delicate television sets, but we are coming into the living room holding our connected devices.” while the families are coming together once more, comparisons with the past. with a range of smaller screens on hand, not everyone sitting on the sofa shares the same viewing experience. the coronation (加冕礼) may have drawn the undivided attention of 20 million viewers in 1953, but those watching the queens jubilee celebrations 50 years later were as likely to be commenting online about bbcs broadcast as watching it. “just a few years ago, we would be talking about last nights tv at work or at school,” said a viewer, “now, were having those conversations live while watching tv, using social media, text and instant messaging.” it is a behaviour of media meshing (联网), whose influence was underlined during 2013 wimbledon mens tennis final. as andy murray pushed towards his victory, 1.1 million people worldwide sent an average of over two microblogs about the match. people use the internet to enhance their television experience, for example, by reading a newspaper live blog about a football match while watching the action on the main screen. for a huge number of younger viewers, the portable screen offers a chance to do something unrelated, such as online shopping, listening to music or watching another television programme.some 70% of 16-to-24-year-olds claim to be absorbed in what ofcom calls “media stacking” at least once a week. for tv viewers, the internet scanning is the most popular activity, but they are also calling friends on the phone or sending emails and texts. surprisingly, 12% claim to have listened to the radio with the television on, and 6% say they have watched another video in the meanwhile. 63. according to the study by ofcom, family members nowadays _.a. care more about who holds the remote control b. share the same programmes in the living roomc. enjoy

meshingb. people like watching live matches on tvc. so many people worldwide are watching tvd. the average amount of microblogs65. which shows the phenomenon of “media stacking” in the last paragraph?a. the internet enriches peoples television experience.b. people are watching a broadcast of a coronation.c. the internet makes people spend less time on tv.d. people are watching tv while shopping online.66. the passage is written to _.a. report the comeback of the traditional living room sceneb. describe the changes connected devices bring to tv watching c. show the influence of connected devices on people d. present the different roles tv plays in peoples lifedits not just adults who have a thing or two to discuss with other people, babies too have their own social lives and enjoy group interaction, according to a world-first study. the breakthrough study conducted by psychologist professor ben bradley, at charles sturt university, could completely transform the way child-care centers are set up. in their study, the researchers examined groups of nine-month-old babies in new south wales and britain. and they came across astonishing results. it was found that infants had “social brains” and focused not just on their mothers but on social life in groups as well. “they communicate with more than one baby at once, and show jealousy and generousness,” said professor bradley. he added, “they develop their own meanings through group interaction, they notice if a group member is behaving differently and they take on roles, such as leaders and followers.”“a baby who has a depressed mother tends to be withdrawn (内向的), but put that same baby in a group of its peers (同龄人) and they behave and interact like any other baby.”it was the first all-baby group study ever to be conducted. “most studies of babies concentrate on the infant-mother relationship, assuming that is the single foundation for mental health, but babies are constantly involved with groups of people other than their mothers, fathers, siblings, grandparents and those taking care. therefore, the mother-baby approach needs to be combined with a group approach,” said bradley.phoebe christison, a child-care worker at camperdown sunshine bubs in sydneys inner west, said she often noticed what appeared to be emotional attachments developed between toddlers.she said, “joel (10 months) and isabella (11 months) always like to hold hands when they sit in their high chairs and eat. and babies definitely show jealousy. they push and touch each other, and copy what the other is doing.”67. which of the following statements about the study is true?a. its the first study to look at all-baby groups. b. it divides babies according to their personalities. c. its aim is to change the way of child care. d. its results are definitely hard to believe.68. a baby who has a depressed mother_. a. tends to grow into a followerb. also enjoys group interaction c. definitely has poor social abilityd. pays more attention to its mother69. what can be inferred from the result of this study? a. theres no need of child-care centers at all. b. babies are affected by groups more than by their mothers. c. adults should include babies when having social activities. d. the normal infant-mother bond alone isnt enough for the good mental health for babies.70. the underlined word “toddlers” in paragraph 8 can be replaced by _.a. adultsb. peersc. babiesd. groups第二节（共5小题；每小题2分, 共10分）根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。in our rush to make life easier, we have decided to go
