most parents think that television has bad influence on their children. for example, in the early 1970s, my parents believed that my bad eyesight was the result of sitting too close to the screen, and they therefore made my stay at least six feet from it. today, most people have no such worry, but many new ridiculous (荒谬的) sayings have appeared: *tv makes kids stupid. many children watch more educational programs when they are pre-schoolers. when they grow up, they can read more books and have much better ideas to solve difficult problems than other children. *tv makes kids violent. the real story is not so simple. hundreds of studies show that watching violence on tv makes children more aggressive (好斗的). but a study of over 5,000 children also finds that some positive programs make children kinder. the problem is that kids are increasingly watching shows with violence instead of those suitable for their age. *sitting around watching tv makes kids overweight. an experiment finds that when children watch less television, they do lose extra weight; however, reducing their television time does not make them more active. the real problem lies in snacking (吃零食). a widespread habit for kids, and junk-food advertisements. *tv helps kids get to sleep. the opposite is true. the more television children watch, the more likely they are to have irregular sleep and nap(小睡) patterns. allowing kids to watch television is part of the problem, not the solution. 39. which one is the advantage of educational tv programs? a. they will make children solve difficult problems better than others. b. they will improve childrens ability to get along with others. c. they are likely to make children more aggressive. d. they will make sure of childrens success in the future. 40. why are children spending much time watching tv likely to be fat? a. watching tv makes children lazy and inactive. b. children are attracted by the food advertisement on tv. c. watching tv doesnt burn up as much fat as doing sports. d. children like to snack while watching tv. 41. what influence does watching tv have on a childs sleep? a. children are likely to sleep deeper after watching tv.b. childrens sleep time will be greatly reduced. c. it will make children form a bad habit of sleeping. d. it will make children sleep easier. 42. what is the purpose of this text? a. to increase peoples knowledge of watching tv.b. to warn parents of the disadvantages of watching tv. c. to explain the bad influences that watching tv has on children. d. to correct parents wrong ideas of televisions effect on children. （c）it was the first day of school. i stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. i turned around to find a little old lady smiling at me.she said, “hi handsome. my name is rose. im eighty-seven years old. can i give you a hug?”i laughed, enthusiastically responding, “of course!” and she gave me a giant squeeze. “why are you in college at such an age?” i asked.“im here to meet a rich husband, get married, have children, and then retire and travel.”“no seriously.”“i always dreamed of having a college education and now im getting one!”we became instant friends. over the course of the year, rose made friends wherever she went. she loved to dress up and she took great delight in the attention given to her from the other students. she was living it up. at the end of the term we invited rose to speak at our football banquet (宴会) and ill never forget what she taught us.as she began to deliver her prepared speech, she dropped her note card on the floor. a little embarrassed she simply said, “im sorry. this whiskey is killing me! ill never get my speech back in order so let me just tell you what i know.” as we laughed, she cleared her throat and began: “we do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing; there are only four secrets to staying young, being happy and achieving success. you have to laugh and find humor every day. you have got to have a dream. when you lose your dreams, you die. we have so many people walking around who are dead and dont even know it! there is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. if you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and dont do one productive thing, you will turn twenty years old. anyone can grow older. that doesnt take any talent or ability. the idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change. have no regrets. the elderly usually dont have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do.”at the years end rose finished the college degree. one week after graduation rose died peacefully in her sleep. over two thousand college students attended her funeral(葬礼) to honor the wonderful woman.43. while meeting rose at the college for the first time, the author was curious about _. a. her age b. her dream c. her life d. her motivation44. the underlined sentence “she was living it up” in the text most probably means _. a. she did as well as she was expected b. she spent much money in her college life c. she did things that she enjoyed d. she deserved praise due to her study45. what else did rose most probably say at the football banquet? a. “it seems my young days are over.” b. “the only people who fear death are those with regrets.” c. “when we are old, we cant do anything. so enjoy in time!” d. “have a good time and dont do much in order to stay young.”46. the story of rose in the text shows that _. a. it is never too late to learn in your life. b. it is good for old people to have friendship. c. it is never too late to be all you can possibly be. d. it is very important to have a healthy body when people are old.( d)why cant some people even get an inch of what they dream of becoming? blame it on pure dreaming and lack of surrounding goals for achieving their dreams. setting goals is very significant part of accomplishing and positive actions. it is like scaling(攀爬) a 200 feet construction and marking in the early hours on what feet you would like to reach at this specific period. people who set goals literally generate a map of their goal settings in life, marking where they should start, where to stop, where to study a bit, and where and when to end. once this map comes into being, it allows the map drawer to check where he is in the scheme(安排) of things and whether or not he is making some planning that will take him closer to his goals. by surrounding goals, people will know how they are doing and what they should be doing to get their goals or dreams in life. they will know if they can relax or if they have to double their efforts when they are falling short of what is expected of them. goal surroundings means a person is proactive in dealing with challenges that may affect his plans. being proactive means one is able to outline（概括出）possible difficulties that may happen as well as the solutions to these difficulties. by making such a goal in life, a person is not easily scared or defeated when challenges comes because he has already prepared for them. he knows they can happen and he has prepared a solution or strategy when that time comes. setting goals will enable people to track their progress in whatever hard work they set out to do. it will help people become more confident in themselves and more motivated to get their plans. 47. the purpose of this passage is to _. a. explain the difference between the two goals. b. show the importance of surrounding goals. c. tell us how to set and achieve ones goals. d. tell us setting goals makes one confident. 48. the underlined word “proactive” in paragraph 5 may have the closest meaning to “_”.a. positive b. carefulc. brave d. prepared 49. according to the author, one had better _ in making a goal in life. a. take an active attitude b. create a scheme as a wholec. consider the possible troubles d. check where he is frequently 50. from the passage, we can reach the conclusion that_. a. achievements come to those who are well prepared b. everyone faces the situation which is scaring or threateningc. the higher one sets his goal, the more achievements he will have d. success never comes to people who always blame 第二节 （共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的7个（a,b,c,d,e,f,g) 选项中选出5个能填入空白处的最佳选项，有两项为多余选项。 getting your children to study can be a little like getting them to eat their vegetables. 51 make a study time and have it at the same time every day. this will help your kids to learn to schedule their day and will give them a sense of control over how they spend their time.allow them to study in blocks of time，such as for half an hour with a fiveminute break in the middle. 52 ideal(理想的) study times are after dinner or right after school before dinner.never allow
