　　阅读理解2017·临沂3月质量检测It can be hard to encourage families of preschoolers to turn off the TV，but there are plenty of high­quality shows that promote learning and positive relationships rather than violence，researchers noted.

　　“Although clearly kids watch too much，what’s more worrying is that they watch poor quality shows，” said Dr Christakis，the lead researcher on the new study from the University of Washington in Seattle.His former survey of parents of three­to five­year­old children showed the kids often watched violent cartoons and movies that are “totally inappropriate”．

　　For their study，he and his colleagues randomly divide 565 preschoolers into two groups.In one group，parents recorded notes about kids’ normal TV viewing，without receiving any guidelines to reduce or change those habits.In the other group，researchers made visits and calls and sent monthly newsletters encouraging parents to replace violent TV with educational programming.After six and 12 months，parents reported their kid’s angry，aggressive or anxious behaviors on a questionnaire.At both time points，children in the TV intervention (干预) program had slightly fewer problems than those in the comparison group.Boys in low­income families seemed to benefit most from the change in programming，the researchers found.

　　“The point is，this is something that is as effective as other things we do to try to guide behavior in children，and it’s fairly simple，” Christakis said.

　　Another study published in Pediatrics found the more TV kids and teens watched，the more likely they were to have a crime or other problems in society.Children may imitate violence they see—or more time in front of the TV could simply mean less communication with peers and families，and worse performance in school.

　　The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends kids watch no more than one to two hours of high­quality programming each day.Researchers agreed parents should be mindful of what exactly their young kids are watching on TV as well.“It’s

　　not just about turning the TV off，it’s about changing the channel，” Christakis said.

　　A．Good learning results and relationships.

　　B．Being affected by violence.

　　C．Spending less time on TV programming.

　　2．For Christakis，what is more concerning?

　　答案：　DAlthough cats may be one of the most popular pets today, little is known about how and when humans and cats set up their close relationship.

　　The earliest evidence for human–cat interaction dates back to prehistoric Cyprus（史前塞浦路斯）, where the remains of a wild cat and a human — dated 9,500 years old — were found buried together.

　　A new study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences has confirmed the first direct evidence of a human–domestic cat relationship among Chinese farmers 5,300 years ago. Researchers studied the bones of cats, dogs, deer and other animals unearthed in an excavation (挖掘) near a village in Central China. By using some ways, scientists showed that the cats were living on a mostly millet(黍)–based diet, just like the domesticated dogs and pigs from the site.

　　"The most reasonable explanation for a high consumption of millet–based food is that the cats had formed a stable and mutual relationship with humans and could easily feed on rodents (啮齿动物) around human villages, find leftover food or even have been fed by people intentionally," said Hu Yaowu from the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing, whose research focuses on the relationship between humans and domesticated animals.

　　"It is very interesting for us to find the consumption of millet-based foods by the cats, since this kind of evidence had long been missing.” Hu explains. Since cats usually eat meat, such a diet would be unexpected, unless the cats were being fed by people, the study argues. The researchers also found that one of the cats survived to reach old age, implying that it had a safe place to live and enough to eat.

　　Why the farmers wanted to keep cats nearby or make them "pets" could be answered by other evidence. Chinese archaeologists found some storage containers were specifically designed to keep out rodents — a vermin (害兽) that cats could certainly have helped with.

　　The simplified theory is that rats were attracted to the food of farmers, and so were harmful to farmers. Cats were attracted to the rats, and so farmers formed a mutually beneficial relationship with cats, taking care of them in return for pest control.

　　【小题1】The evidence found in the remains dating back to prehistoric Cyprus means

　　.

　　A. human made cats pets as early as 9,500 years ago

　　B. human interacted with cats very early

　　C. cats didn’t appear until prehistoric Cyprus

　　D. when cats became domesticated

　　【小题2】Apart from cats, Hu Yaowu and his teams may also study

　　.

　　A. the preventions of pests from grains

　　B. the history of Chinese farming

　　C. the dogs and pigs

　　D. the ways to keep pets

　　【小题3】Which of the following is NOT the evidence of Chinese farms’ keeping cats?

　　A. Cats didn’t feed on meat.

　　B. The cats consumed large amounts of millet–based foods.

　　C. One of the cats survived to reach old age.

　　D. Some storage containers were specifically designed to keep out rodents.

　　【小题4】What are the reasons for farmers to keep cats?

　　A. Helping keep other domesticated animals.

　　B. Not letting cats eat food.

　　C. Supplying meat for human.

　　D. Helping reduce the amount of pests.

　　【小题5】In which part of a newspaper would be the passage most probably appear

　　.

　　A. Entertainment

　　B. Environment

　　C. Human and Science

　　D. Life and fashion

　　试题分析：文章介绍了通过调查发现人和猫的联系是什么时候开始的，也介绍了以前的农民为什么养猫的

　　阅读短文，从A、B、C和DAfter a terrible electrical accident, which caused him to become both blind and deaf, the whole world became completely dark and quiet for Robert Edwards for almost ten years. The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life. His family, especially his wife, did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live.

　　One hot summer afternoon, he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once. He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet, but he was struck by the lightning. Witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up some 20 minutes later lying face down in muddy water at the base of the tree. He was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes, he could hardly believe what he saw: a plough and a wall. When Mrs. Edwards came running up to him, shouting to their neighbors to call for help, he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years.

　　The news of Robert regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread, and many doctors came to examine him. Most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning. However, none of them could give a convincing answer as to why this should have happened. The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since Robert lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock, perhaps, the only way for him to regain them was by another sudden shock.

　　The reason for Robert’s attempts to kill himself was that _________.

　　A. a terrible traffic accident happened to him

　　B. he had to live in a dark and silent world

　　C. he was struck by the lightning once more

　　D. nobody in the world cared about him

　　What was Robert doing when he was struck by the lightning?

　　A. Sheltering from the rain under a tree.

　　B. Driving a car.

　　C. Taking a walk with a stick.

　　D. Lying on the ground.

　　We can infer from the text that ________.

　　A. there was no accurate explanation for Robert’s recovery

　　B. many doctors came because Robert was badly injured

　　C. Robert’s wife sent for doctors immediately after the shock

　　D. a sudden injury in the head led to Robert’s recovery

　　What’s the best title of the whole passage?

　　A. A Terrible Electrical Accident

　　B. Robert Edwards and His Wife

　　C. What a Sudden Shock

　　D. An Unforgettable Experience

　　B. 细节理解题。由第一段第三行“The loss of sight and hearing…to his life.”可知。

　　A. 细节理解题。由第二段第二行“He stood under a large tree…by the lightning.”可知。

　　A. 推理判断题。由最后一段第三行“However, none of them…should have happened.”可知。

　　C. 主旨大意题。文章主要是围绕着sudden shock展开的。
