When I was six, my dad brought home a dog one day, who was called Brownie. My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, and another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games. Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around.
One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up one of dad’s shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl,” she looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw tears in her eyes.
Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet. She went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she’d let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we’d be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. She never barked or tried to get away. Funny thing is that she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she loved everyone.
Now many years have passed since Brownie died of old age. I still miss days when she was with us.
41. What would Brownie do when someone was ill in the family
A. Look at them sadly. B. Keep them company.
C. Play games with them. D. Touch them gently.
42. We can infer from Paragraph 2 that Brownie______________.
A. would eat anything when hungry B. felt sorry for her mistake
C. loved playing hide-and-seek D. disliked the author’s dad
43. Why does the author say that Brownie was more than just her family pet
A. She was treated as a member of the family. B. She played games with anyone she liked.
C. She was loved by everybody she met. D. She went everywhere with the family
44. Some people got frightened by Brownie when she __________.
A. smiled B. barked C. rushed to them D. tried to be funny
45. Which of the following best describes Brownie
A. Shy. B. Polite. C. Brave. D. Caring.
C
Television is a central part of many people’s lives. There are very few places in the world where one cannot find a television set. Some sporting events, such as the Olympic Games or the football World Cup, can attract audiences of many millions. But is television a good or bad influence on young people in the modern world
Thomas Murray, president of the British Parents Against Television Society, believes that it has not improved young people’s lives. “Television damages family life,” he argues. “At mealtime, families no longer talk to each other. In the evenings, youngsters do not spend good quality time with family members. Instead, they watch television.” Murray says that this lack of communication leads to social problems.
Murray also believes that the content of television programmes provides young people with poor role models. “There is so much violence(暴力) on TV—guns, kung fu fighting, and so on. Young people think that all problems should be solved by aggression.”
It is not just young people’s mental health that worries Murray. “Teenagers don’t get enough exercise because they spend so many hours watching television. They also develop back problems from sitting down for so long, and eye strain from the effort of watching.”
Murray would like to see changes to television habits. “Programmes should be educational. Their contents should be nonviolent and healthy. There should be no programmes after ten o’clock in the evening. Parents should teach their children to enjoy their spare time by playing sports or games. And certainly, the television should be switched off during mealtime.
Susan Taylor is a television producer. She believes that television is a good influence on young people. “Television brings the outside world to youngsters. It even brought us pictures from the moon! And look what happens after the Olympic Games or the World Cup matches have been shown on TV. People start to take more exercise. Also, there are a lot of programmes about healthy eating and keeping fit.”
However, Taylor agrees with Murray’s point of view concerning parents. “Of course parents have a role to play in educating their kids. They should turn the TV off during mealtime and they should talk with their children as often as possible.”
46. The article is mainly about _____________.
A. that TV is a central part of many people’s lives
B. that Murray would like to see changes to television habits
C. whether TV is a good or bad influence on young people in the modern world
D. that parents should turn the TV off during mealtime and talk with their children
47. Which of the following statements is True
A. Teenagers will get backache for sitting down for a long time.
B. Murray only worries about young people’s mental health.
C. TV programmes are nonviolent and educational.
D. Teenagers don’t like doing exercise at all.
48. What leads to social problems in Murray’s opinion
A. The lack of communication. B. Young people watching too much TV.
C. So much violence on TV. D. Not enough exercise.
49. The underlined words “eye strain” in paragraph 4 probably means________.
A. eye sickness B. blindness C. eye tiredness D. far-sightedness
50. We can infer from this passage that___________.
A. Murray is president of the British Parents Against Television Society
B. Susan Taylor completely disagrees with Murray on TV
C. there are both good and bad programmes on TV
D. Susan Taylor is a television producer
