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 exac tly 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. 1．What is the positive effect of high­quality TV shows on kids?A．Good learning results and relationships.B．Being affected by violence.C．Spending less time on TV program ming.D．Encouraging them to turn on the TV.2．For Christakis，what is more concerning?A．Kids watching too much TV.B．TV shows being of poor quality.C．Kids watching too many cartoons.D．Parents receiving no guidelines.3．We can learn from the survey mentioned in Para.3 that________.A．Children don’t like being disturbed while watching TVB．Preschoolers seems to like newsletters more than TVC．Poor children prefer to watch educational programmingD．Kids watching high­quality programs have fewer problems4. Christakis thought the effect of educational programming on children’s behaviour was________.A．unclear B．slightC．obvious D．great5．According to the researchers，________.A．getting preschoolers away from TV is difficultB．shows on TV in America are full of violenceC．parents should communicate more with their kidsD．parents should keep an eye on what kids watch on TVⅢ.阅读表达(2014·山东省泰安市高三第一轮复习质量检测)Mary Jones bought a dress in a women’s cloth ing store.She felt very happy about buying the dress until she got home.Then she remembered she had left her credit card at the store when she used it to pay for the dress.It was the third time that month that Mary had forgotten something important.Mary was angry with herself.She said，“Am I losing it？”Emma Cleveland was teaching a class in mathematics at a college.She began to explain to the students how to solve a very difficult problem.She understood it very well.But somehow，at that moment，she could not explain it.Emma said，“ ____________”Americans seem to have a lot of concern about losing it.At least that is what you would think from hearing them talk.They use the expression when they feel they are losing control.It can mean losing emotional control，or losing the ability to do something，or losing mental powers.One psychologist said，“We Americans have many concerns about controlling our lives.Perhaps we worry too much.”She continued，“In many situations，to say you are losing it eases the tension.It is healthy.And most people who say they are having a problem are not losing it.” People may feel more like they are losing it when they are “down_in_the_dumps”．People who are down in the dumps are sad.They are depressed. Word experts do not agree what the w ord “dumps” means.One expert，John Ayto，says the word “dumps” probably comes from the Scandinavian countries.The languages of Denmark and Norway both have similar words.The words mean to fall suddenly.Americans borrowed this saying.And，over the years，it has become a popular way of expressing sadness1．How does the author introduce the topic of the text？(no more than 5 words) ________________________________________________________________________2．Fill in the blank in Paragraph 2 with proper words.(no more than 6 words)________________________________________________________________________ 3．List three situations when Americans use “losing it”．________________________________________________________________________ 4．What’s the meaning of the unde rlined phrase in Paragraph 5？(no more than 3 words) ________________________________________________________________________ 5．What is the benefit of saying “losing it”，according to the psychologist？(no more than 12 words________________________________________________________________________课时作业(十五)Ⅰ.单项填空1．解析：考查情景对话。
