Module 6
Ⅰ.阅读理解
Today,I read an interesting article about television viewing. In one experiment, families were paid to stop watching TV for either a week or a month. Many could not complete the task and some families even fought, verbally or physically. It was quite interesting and now I will say something about TV.
After TV became a product most families could afford,people bought and started to watch their new TVs. Both adults and children became less creative in problem solving, less able to persevere (坚持)in tasks, and less tolerant of unstructured time.
In my family, we grew up with the TV on. Every weekend, we watched Gun Smoke and Bonanza together as a family. TV provides us with a comfortable background when we want to learn a foreign language at home, and it entertains us cheaply with live action sports, incomparable performing arts and important events of the world. In addition, it educates us about everything from the cells in our body to the galaxies in the universe.
Perhaps it's not even practical to live without television unless our views change abruptly as we get older. I don't think that TV damages us so much as it robs us of time that could be spent doing other things such as learning new skills, getting some exercise or doing volunteer work.
I was lucky to have a family that watched TV together. Today there seems to be a TV in every room of the house and there's no need to agree on a program to watch. To watch TV or not to watch TV is more of a question for adults than for us,and even though we all say we want to cut down the time we spend in front of the tube, we never really do. TV_has_us_hypnotized!
1.The experiment in Paragraph 1 is intended to show ________.
A.how interesting watching TV is
B.how much people like watching TV
C.whether people like watching TV
D.what people do after giving up watching TV
答案:B 根据第一段第二句“In one experiment, families were paid to stop watching TV for either a week or a month.”可推测“强调不看电视时间的长短”,所以选择表示“人们对电视的喜爱程度”的B项。
2.After most families could afford a TV, they became ________.
A.more active at work B.more crazy in solving problems
C.less tolerant of TV timeD.less concentrated on tasks
答案:D 根据第二段“After TV became a product most families could afford,people bought and started to watch their new TVs...less able to persevere in tasks...”可知:A项显然与原文意思相反;B项的more crazy与原文的less creative意思相反;人们越来越喜欢电视,所以不可能是难以忍受看电视的时间,所以排除C项。
3.According to Paragraph 3, the author and his family ________.
A.spend weekends watching TV in every room
B.get a lot of valuable experience in watching TV
C.want to cut down the time spent in front of TV
D.can afford a TV for each one of the family
答案:B 根据第三段关键词“grew up with the TV”,“provides us with a comfortable background”,“entertains us cheaply”和“educates us about everything...”可以推断,电视给作者及其家人带来了许多宝贵的经历。
4.In the last paragraph the underlined sentence means ________.
A.we are really hooked on our TV
B.we are really proud of our TV
C.TV robs us of available time
D.TV benefits us greatly
答案:A 文章末尾“...even though we all say we want to cut down the time we spend in front of the tube, we never really do...”表示“虽然我们都表示打算削减看电视的时间,但我们从未这么做(因为我们对电视太着迷了)”。

(2015·唐山一中调研)
Hollywood movies are regularly filled with sex and violence. They can be exciting films but sometimes all you want is a little lighthearted entertainment.
Have you heard of Bollywood? All singing, all dancing and unrealistic, it is the perfect alternative to normal Hollywood movies. Bollywood is the Indian film industry, based in Mumbai, formerly known as Bombay. __1__ Yet Bollywood is the largest producer of films in the world. This year the Indian Filmgare Awards, Bollywood's Oscars, turn 50 years old.
The typical Bollywood movie usually has the following ingredients: a cup of romance, a teaspoon of comedy, a dash of international sightseeing, served with a huge slice of singing and dancing. There will also be one brave hero, one beautiful heroine and one baddie. __2__
Bollywood films are full of ideal things and free of daily worries. __3__ The actors change clothes and locations within a single song. But the audience don't mind. To Indian movie lovers, especially the poor, such films are a gateway to heaven and the stars are their gods. The films take them to a magical world away from their everyday troubles. The films tell them the impossible is possible and that true love conquers all.
__4__ Behind the beautiful scenes, Bollywood still emphasizes traditional family values. In most films, if two lovers want to break an arranged marriage, they can't just run away. They must win over their parents.
Bollywood is a decent refreshing replacement for those overstimulating Hollywood films. __5__ They will take you to a brighter, cheerier and more colorful world, where it's still cool to dance around a tree and sing a love song.
A.Bollywood has gradually won its reputation on the world stage.
B.There is never any mention of politics, poverty or war.
C.Most Chinese school kids have probably never seen an Indian film.
D.Bollywood films are mostly comic romances with lighthearted incidental music.
E.Bollywood pays great attention to traditional values.
F.The result is a funfilled musical.
G.So if you're tired of all that Hollywood actions, check out the following Bollywood films.
语篇解读:文章讲述了印度的电影业,Bollywood 是印度电影产业的基地,并讲述了印度电影的风格,浪漫,幽默,轻松。所以在好莱坞电影里面充斥的暴力,色情,印度电影里是没有的。所以印度电影在世界舞台也逐渐赢得了他的名声。
1.C 与下文句子的衔接。意思是:也许中国的学生从来没有看过印度电影,然而 Bollywood 才是世界上最大的电影产业基地。
2.F 对上文的总结。浪漫,幽默,伴有着轻音乐和优美的舞姿,里面有一个英雄和美丽的女主角,这完全是一个充满乐趣的音乐片,故答案应为F。
3.B 段落承上启下的理解。Bollywood 电影充满了完美的东西免于日常的烦恼。所以在电影里不会涉及到政治,贫穷和战争。在段末提到电影会带他们到一个神奇的世界,让他们远离烦恼,真爱可以征服一切。
4.E 对总启句的理解。后文提到,在美丽的画面后面,Bollywood 电影强调传统的家庭观念,由此可知,答案应为E,Bollywood 电影更多的关注传统的价值观。
5.G 对上下文的理解。句意为:因此如果你厌倦于好莱坞的动作片时,就找一部 Bollywood 的电影看看吧,它会带你进入一个活泼的多彩的世界,唱着爱情歌曲围着树去跳舞也是很酷的。

A proverb says, “Time is money.” But in my opinions, time is even much valuable than money. Why? Because when money is spent, we can earn them back, so when time is wasted, we can never get it back. There is no doubt when time is very limiting, and even an hour is of great value. We should make full use of time do useful things. It's a pity that a lot of people didn't appreciate the value of time. They waste their time doing anything useful. We should form the good habit of racing against the time.

Our school has set up a column called Sharing for Senior 3 students. _________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
答案:
Our school has recently set up a column called Sharing for Senior 3 students.The column, aimed at relieving pressure and ensuring the health of us students, mainly deals with our worries in life and the challenges we meet in the course of study. It has a unique advantage that we can seek from experts in psychology some professional advice on our respective problems.
In my opinion, our school attaches great importance to our study and our mental health as well. Starting this column provides us with a platform on which to communicate with others and pour out our feelings. On the other hand, we can turn to it for help when at a loss what to do. Under the expert guidance of the column, I believe, we can achieve our goals with more confidence and keep a good state of mind at the same time.
