Surrounded by miles of winding stone walls, the house and field provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me. I was used to tidy living rooms that seemed to whisper, Not to be touched!I can still remember one afternoon when I was eight years old. Since my first visit to the farm, I had wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stone walls surrounding the houses. My parents would never approve. The walls were old; some stones were missing, others loose and falling. Still, my idea to climb across those walls grew so strong that finally, one spring afternoon, I had all my courage to enter the living room, where the adults had gathered after Sunday dinner.I, uh-I wanna climb the stone walls, I said. Everyone looked up. Can I climb the stone walls? Immediately voices of disagreement went up from the women in the room. Heavens, no! Youll hurt yourself! I wasnt too disappointed; the response was just as Id expected. But before I could leave the room, I was stopped by my grandfathers loud voice. Now hold on just a minute, I heard him say. Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for himself.Go, he said to me, and come and see me when you get back. For the next two and a half hours I climbed those old walls -and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventures. Ill never forget what he said. Fred, he said, smiling, You made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, theres only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are.Many years have passed since then, and today I host the television program Mister Rogers Neighborhood, seen by millions of children throughout America. There have been changes over the years, but one thing remains the same: my message to children at the end of almost every visit. Theres only one person in this whole world like you, the kids can count on hearing me say, and people can like you exactly as you are. 66The writer enjoyed his visits to the farm because .Athere were old stone walls.Bit was an exciting place for him.Che liked his grandfather.Dthe living room there was clean67The underlined word “approve” in paragraph 2 means .AproveBsupposeCallowDmind68We can learn from the passage that the writer was .AadventurousBfunnyCsmartDtalkativeBA new study suggests that very young children who watch a lot of television may have attention problems later in school.Children with attention problems cannot sit still or control their actions. They talk too much, lose things, forget easily and are not able to finish tasks.People with attention problems may suffer a condition known as Attention Deficit Disorder (A.D.D.). Experts say the cause of A.D.D involves（包括）chemicals in the brain. Teachers say many children in the United States are showing signs of disorder. Some education researchers have been saying for years that watching television at a very young age could change the normal development of the brain. For example, they say that children who watch a lot of television are not able to sit and read for an extended period of time.The new study tested the idea that television watching by very young children is linked to（与有联系）attention problems by the age of seven. It involved more than 1300 children. There were two groups of children, ages one and three. Researchers at Childrens Hospital in Seattle, Washington reported the results in the publication Pediatrics.（儿科）They asked the parents how often the children watched television. The parents also described their childrens actions at the age of seven using a method that can tell if someone suffers attention deficit disorders.The children who watched a lot of television at an early age were most likely to have attention problems. Every hour of watching television increased the chances of having attention problems by about ten per cent. The researchers say that all the children with attention problems might not have A.D.D. But they still could face major learning problems in school. The findings support advice by a group of doctors that children under the age of two should not watch television.One of the researchers said there are other reasons why children should not watch television. Earlier studies have linked it with children becoming too fat and too aggressive（好斗的）. Other experts say the new study is important, but more work needs to be done to confirm the findings and better explain the cause and effect.69The best title for the passage is .ATV and Attention Problems.BAttention and Learning.CDisadvantages of Watching TV.DCauses of Attention Deficit Disorder.70Children with attention problems may .Acontrol their actions.Bsit and read quietly.Cnever fail to finish tasks easily.Dspeak frequently to others in class.71Watching TV at an early age may cause all of the following problems EXCEPT .Againing weightBtendency(倾向) to quarrel with othersCpoor eyesightDattention deficit disorder.72What can be inferred from the passage?AExperts should have further studies on the subject.BWatching TV has no effect on childrens character.CLearning problems are caused by watching too much TV.DAttention problems are caused only by watching TV.CEvery year students flock to the college bookstore to purchase（购买） the different textbooks that they need for their classes. Little do these students realize that, in doing so, they are throwing good money away. It may sound unbelievable but textbooks, in some cases, actually cost as much as, if not more, than college fees.Many people think that college bookstore are the most convenient source（来源）for textbooks. Titles are usually in-stock and students may purchase new textbooks or choose to buy second-hand books and save money . But the money saved by purchasing second-hand textbooks from college bookstores is small compared to the amount they could save by shopping online.More and more online booksellers have begun selling textbooks at heavily discounted prices. Online second-hand bookstores are another source for college books as they stock a large number of textbooks, which means sizable savings for students. Students should avoid purchasing their textbooks at the first store that they browse(浏览) online since there are so many virtual booksellers on the Net. Price isnt the only factor to consider when making an online purchase. Students should also consider shipping costs and delivery time when making their decision.Online auctions(拍卖) are another choice for students seeking a bargain. This option, however, has its pros and cons. A plus is that students can get incredibly cheap books. One problem is tha
