A[2010·辽宁卷]
Too much TV­watching can harm children's ability to learn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children.
One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third­graders.Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children
without bedroom TVs.
A second study, looking at nearly 1, 000 grown­ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among 26­year­olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood.But the results don't prove that TV is the cause and don't rule out that already poorly motivated youngsters (年轻人) may watch lots of TV.
Their study measured the TV habits of 26­year­olds between ages 5 and 15.Those with college degrees had watched an average of less than two hours of TV per weeknight during childhood,
compared with an average of more than 212
hours for those who had no education beyond high school. In the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest, while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest.
While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to accumulating findings that children shouldn't have TVs in their bedrooms.
31. According to the California study, the low­scoring group might ________.
A. have watched a lot of TV
B. not be interested in math
C. be unable to go to college
D. have had computers in their bedrooms
32. What is the researchers' understanding of the New Zea­land study results?
A. Poorly motivated 26­year­olds w atch more TV.
B. Habits of TV watching reduce learning interest.
C. TV watching leads to lower education levels of the 15­year­olds.
D. The connection between TV and education levels is difficult to explain.
33. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A ．More time should be spent on computers.
B. Children should be forbidden from watching TV.
C. TV sets shouldn't be allowed in children's bedrooms.
D. Further studies on high­achieving students should be done.
34. What would be the best title for this text?

B [2010·重庆卷]
Sitting on the peaceful coast of Galapagos Islands, Ecuador, watching the sun move quietly into the sea, you shouldn't forget that Charles Darwin (1809—1882) arrived here in 1835.He stayed on the islands for five weeks, observing various animals.This finally inspired (启发) his famous work, On the Origin of Species .You can certainly follow Darwin's footsteps and enjoy a trip from four to seven days to the islands.
The islands are certainly a paradise(天堂) for wildlife, as there are no natural killers on the islands and the number of boats and visitors is under government control.Though you cannot walk freely as Darwin did about 200 years ago, each day is as impressive as it could be.
The most well­known animal of the Galapagos is the giant tortoise(巨型陆龟), which can be seen moving slowly around the highlands of Santa Cruz, the second largest island in the archipelago(群岛)．Some of these creatures are so old that they might have been seen in their youth by Darwin himself.
Despite strict control over activities and timing, your stay on the Galapagos will be remembered as a chain of incomparable pictures ：diving with sea lions that swim and play within inches of you ；feeling small sharks touch your feet as you swim; and, most magically, seeing a whale and her baby surface with a great breath of air.
Traveling between the islands and observing the wildlife that so inspired Darwin, you will feel as though you are getting a special view of an untouched world.At night you will sleep on board the ship, leaving the wildlife in complete occupation of the islands, which are as
undisturbed now as they have been since the beginning of time.
35. What do we know about Darwin's visit to the islands?
A. He studied different creatures on the islands.
B. He completed his famous book on the islands.
C. He was touched by the geography of the islands.
D. He was attracted by w ell­known animals of the islands.
36. Which of the following plays a role in making the islands “a paradise for wildlife”？
A. Animals on the islands feed on grass.
B. Local government forbids killing wildlife.
C. People cannot visit the islands as they wish.
D. Tourists are not allowed to touch the animals.
37. Your stay on the islands will be most impressive mainly because of ________.
A. the beautiful sea views
B. Darwin's inspiring trip
C. a closer view of animals
D. various daring activities
38. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. A Unique Attraction for Wildlife Lovers
