第二十二讲 推理判断题
(1)(8 min.)
(2012·师大附中一模)Back in the old days, when I was a child, we sat around the family round table at dinner time and exchanged our daily experiences. It wasn't very organized, but everyone was recognized and all the news that had to be told was told by each family member.
We listened to each other and the interest was not puton; it was real. Our family was a unit and we supported each other, and nurtured each other, and liked each other, and — we were even willing to admit — we loved each other.
Today, the family round table has moved to the local fastfood restaurant and talk is not easy, much less encouraged.
Grandma, who used to live upstairs, is now
the voice on long distance, and the working parent is far too beaten down each day to spend evening relaxation time listening to the sandbox experience of an eager fouryearold.
So family conversation is as extinct as my old toys and parental questions such as “What have you been doing, Bobby?” have been replaced by “I'm busy, go to watch television.”
And watch TV they do; count them by the millions.
But it's usually not children's television that children watch. Saturday morning, the children's hour, amounts to only about 8 percent of their weekly viewing.
Where are they to be found? Watching adult television, of course, from the Match Game in the morning, to the afternoon at General Hospital, from the muggings and battles on the evening news right through the family hour and past into Starsky and Hutch. That's where you find our kids, over five million of them, at 10 p. m., not fewer than a million until after midnight! All of this is done with parental permission.
Television, used well, can provide enriching experiences for our young people, but we must use it with some sense. When the carpet is clean, we turn off the vacuum cleaner. When the dishes are clean, the dishwasher turns itself off.
Not so the television, which is on from the sun in the morning to the moon at night and beyond!
Parents must exercise some control and show some concern about the cultural influence on the child when a program not intended for that child is viewed. Parents need to intervene. Nonintervention may be a wise policy in international affairs, but the results of parental nonintervention will not be wise at all.
1. From the first two paragraphs one may infer that the writer's a attitude towards “the old days” is ______.
A. preferringB. hating
C. being tired of
D. disappointing
2. The working parent is not willing to listen to her (his) fouryearold child talking about his sandbox games because she (he) is ______.
A. boring
B. very tired
C. busy
D. angry
3. According to the writer, the responsibility for the kid's watching adult television and watching it for a long time should be undertaken by ______.
A. the television stations
B. the society
C. TV programs
D. their parents
4. If we use television with some ______, television can provide our young people with much knowledge.
A. instruction of experts
B. judgment of our own
C. direction of engineers
D. indication of teachers
5. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. Parental nonintervention will not be praised.
B. Nonintervention may be a good policy in international affairs.
C. Parents must exercise some control and show some concern about the cultural influence on the children.
D. Parents need to intervene.

(2012·长郡中学月考六)Have you ever ripped a dollar bill by mistake? If so, perhaps you taped it back together. Sometimes money is damaged in more serious ways. Then it is not easy to fix. If you cannot repair paper money, you cannot use it. You have to send badly damaged money to a special government office in Washington, D. C.
The people who work in this office sit at long tables under bright lights. Their main tools are magnifying glasses and tweezers. Their job is to piece together the damaged bills. The workers try to find at least half of each of bill. Otherwise the government will not pay the owner for it.
This office is very busy. It handles about 30, 000 cases per year. People may wait a long time before their case comes up, but it's worth it. The service is free, and you may get your money back.
How is money damaged? Sometimes it is damaged in a fire. Then a person may have mostly ashes to send in. Sometimes money is damaged in a flood. Then the bills are faded and stuck together. People had sent money that had gone through the washing machine. Some bills have been chewed by animals. Others somehow got into blenders.
Also some people don't like banks, so they hid their money in unusual places. If bills are buried in cans, they sometimes get moldy. Mice often nibble at money hidden in attics and basements.
Once, a truck carrying money for a bank exploded. There was a big fire. The truck company sent in the remains of the bills. They were worth $2.5 million dollars. Thanks to the government workers, the company got a check for all the money.
