Warm-hearted OnlookersBThe average American child spends three to five hours a day watching TV. In 1961, the average child began to watch television at age three; however, today it is nine months. Yet, 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.25. Which one is the advantage of educational TV programs?A. They will make children solve difficult problems better than others.B. they will improve children 's ability to get along with others.C. They are likely to make children more aggressive.D. They will make sure of children 's success in the future. 26. 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 doesn 't burn up as much fat as doing sports.D. Children like to snack while watching TV.27. What influence does watching TV have on a child 's sleep?A. Children are likely to sleep deeper after watching TV.B. Children 's sleep time will be greatly reduced.C. It will make children form a bad habit of sleeping.D. It will make children sleep easier. 28. What is the purpose of this text?A. To increase people 's 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 television 's effect on children.Is crying good therapy? Experts say yes. Having a good weep at the weekend is becoming more popular among office workers in China.“ Ineed to cry to let my feeling out, ”said 22-year-old Guo Meng, a smart-looking young woman. “I remember one day when I got home I felt so down but I had no one to talk to, so I ju st curled up （蜷缩）with my teddy bear and cried myself to sleep, ” Guo said. The n ext day, she said, she felt much better and life seemed not so bad after all.Because crying is taken as a sign of weakness, people make a great show of being strong and not displayingemotion. Psychologists and medical practitioners （ 从业者 ） agree that crying is beneficial for mental health but people still regard it as a sign of failure and bottle up their feelings. A famous Chinese author once said to cry is normal, and even brave. Those who display their emotions can deal with their troubles bravely after the tears dry, while those who soldier on （顽强地坚持下去） let problems fester （恶化） .In the Chaoyang district of Beijing, there is a special place for people to cry their sadness out. It is called “Cry Bar ”. On the door of each of its “cry rooms ” there is a saying encouraging p to let the tears flow freely.“Crying is a kind of therapy, but it needs some direction, ” said Milulu, a psychologist.“Peopleshould realize the point of crying is to relieve pressure, but some of the young people who come to the Cry Bar simply sit and weep. The purpose of crying is to make it easier to improve your life after the tears dry, not to get lost in bad memories. ”Crying is only one way of relieving pressure, and we need to face problems directly and solve them once the tears have dried, said Mululu. 29. Crying ____ made Guo Meng feel better.A. all the night with a toyB. in bed before sleepC. during her sleepD. with some friend30.

That was eleven years after two Germans developed the world's first automobile. Many people believe Henry Ford invented the production line that moved a car's parts to the worker, instead of making the worker move to the parts. That is not true, either. Many factory owners used methods of this kind before Ford. What Henry Ford did was to use other people's ideas and make them better. And he made the whole factory a moving production line.In the early days of the automobile, almost every car maker raced his cars. It was the best way of gaining public notice. Henry Ford decided to build a racing car. Ford's most famous race was his first one. It was also the last race in which he drove the car himself.The race was in 1901, at a field near Detroit. All of the most famous cars had entered, but only two were left: the Winton and Ford. The Winton was famous for its speed. Most people thought the race was over before it began.The Winton took an early lead. But halfway through the race, it began to lose power. Ford started to gain. And near the end of the race, he took the lead. Ford won the race and defeated the Winton. His name appeared in newspapers and he became well- known all over the UnitedStates. Within weeks of the race, Henry Ford formed a new automobile company. In 1903, a doctor in Detroit bought the first car from the company. That sale was the beginning of Henry Ford's dream. Ford said: “ I will build a motor car for the great mass of people. It will be largeenough for the family, but small enough for one person to operate and care for. It will be built of the best materials. It will be built by the best men to be employed. And it will be built with the simplest plans that modern engineering can produce. It will be so low in price that no man making good money will be unable to own one. ”The Model T was a car of that kind. It only cost $850. It was a simple machine that drivers could depend on. Doctors bought the Model T. So did farmers. Even criminals. They considered it the fastest and surest form of transportation. Americans loved the Model T. They wrote stories and songs about it. Thousands of Model T's were built in the first few years.33. What do we know about Henry Ford from Paragraph 1 ?A. He made good use of ideas from others.B. He produced the first car in the world.C.
