Unit 4 Turning off TV A Quiet Hour课文翻译大学英语一

Unit 4 Turning off TV：A Quiet HourMany people in the United States spend most of their free time watching television. Certainly, there are many worthwhile programs on television, including news, educational programs for children, programs on current social problems, plays, movies, concerts, and so on. Nevertheless, perhaps people should not be spending so much of their time in front of the TV. Mr Mayer imagines what we might do if we were forced to find other activities.I would like to propose that for sixty to ninety minutes each evening, right after the early evening news, all television broadcasting in the United States be prohibited by law.Let us take a serious, reasonable look at what the results be if such a proposal were accepted. Families might use the time for a real family hour. Without the distraction of TV, they might sit around together after dinner and actually talk to one another. It is well known that many of our problems -- everything, in fact, from the generation gap to the high divorce rate to some forms of mental illness -- are caused at least in part by failure to communicate. We do not tell each other what is disturbing us. The result is emotional difficulty of one kind or another. By using the quiet family hour to discuss our problems, we might get to know each other better, and to like each other better.On evenings when such talk is unnecessary, families could rediscover more active pastimes. Freed from TV, forced to find their own activities, they might take a ride together to watch the sunset. Or they might take a walk together (remember feet?) and see the neighborhood with fresh, new eyes.With free time and no TV, children and adults might rediscover reading. There is more entertainment in a good book than in a month of typical TV programming. Educators report that the generation growing up with television can barely write an English sentence, even at the college level. Writing is often learned from reading. A more literate new generation could be a product of the quiet hour.A different form of reading might also be done, as it was in the past: reading aloud. Few pastimes bring a family closer together than gathering around and listening to mother or father read a good story. The quiet hour could become the story hour. Whenthe quiet hour ends, the TV networks might even be forced to come up with better shows in order to get us back from our newly discovered activities.At first glance, the idea of an hour without TV seems radical. What will parents do without the electronic baby-sitter? How will we spend the time? But it is not radical at all. It has been only twenty-five years since television came to control American free time. Those of us thirty-five and older can remember childhoods without television, spent partly with radio -- which at least involved the listener's imagination -- but also with reading, learning, talking, playing games, inventing new activities. It wasn't that difficult. Honest. The truth is we had a ball.在美国，许多人把大部分空闲时间花在看电视上。

But since the first modern home TV set was marketed in 1939, TV's influence on America, for both good and bad has become a major force in determining how people relax and behave. The consequences are staggering. Studies show that the lives of Americans, from their selection of food to their choices of political leaders, are deeply affected by TV, and that influence is growing.

【精品】：大学英语精读第一册课文翻译[1] 大学英语精读第三版第一册课文翻译Unit1课程开始之际，就如何使学习英语的任务更容易提出一些建议似乎正当其时。

Some Strategies or Learning English学习英语绝非易事。

它需要刻苦和长期努力。

虽然不经过持续的刻苦努力便不能期望精通英语，然而还是有各种有用的学习策略可以用来使这一任务变得容易一些。

以下便是其中的几种。

1. 不要以完全同样的方式对待所有的生词。

你可曾因为简直无法记住所学的所有生词而抱怨自己的记忆力太差,其实，责任并不在你的记忆力。

如果你一下子把太多的生词塞进头脑，必定有一些生词会被挤出来。

你需要做的是根据生词日常使用的频率以不同的方式对待它们。

积极词汇需要经常练习，有用的词汇必须牢记，而在日常情况下不常出现的词只需见到时认识即可。

你会发现把注意力集中于积极有用的词上是扩大词汇量最有效的途径。

2(密切注意地道的表达方式。

你可曾纳闷过，为什么我们说 "我对英语感兴趣"是"I'm interested in English"，而说"我精于法语"则是"I'm good at French", 获悉消息或秘密"是"learn the 你可曾问过自己，为什么以英语为母语的人说"news or secret"，而"获悉某人的成功或到来"却是"learn of someone's successor arrival",这些都是惯用法的例子。

在学习英语时，你不仅必须注意词义，还必须注意以英语为母语的人在日常生活中如何使用它。

3(每天听英语。

经常听英语不仅会提高你的听力，而且有助你培养说的技能。

除了专为课程准备的语言磁带外，你还可以听英语广播，看英语电视和英语电影。

大学英语精读第一册unit4 Turning off TV

In the early 1960s, over 750 TV stations were telecasted to about 52 million sets with the result that the American TV audience included almost every family. But today, virtually every American home has TV and twothirds of American families have two or more sets, twothirds have cable. There are a thousand stations with a choice of five or six channels all over the country, not counting in the cable programs one can buy. The Big Three of the networks are: the National Broadcasting Company (NBC), the Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS), and the American Broadcasting Company (ABC).
TV: Past and Present
A demonstration of television was held at the New York World's Fair in 1939纽约世界博览会 , and during the 1940s networks were established and television sets began to be sold. But, for a while, radio still had complete control of the entertainment industry.

中南财经政法大学武汉学院外语系《大学英语1》(专科)课程教案Teaching Plan for College English (Book 1) Foreign Languages Department of Wuhan College, ZNUEL任课教师签名：Lecture NotesBefore Reading:Warm-Up Questions1. Do you often watch TV? Why or why not?2. What TV program(s) do you like best? Why?3. What are disadvantages of watching too much TV?Introductory RemarksTelevision, since its first prevalence over radio in the 1950s, has played a more and more important role in people’s lives. As a matter of fact, it has become so much a part of human life that a modern world without television is unimaginable. Some people even say that life without television is not worth living. But some, on the other hand, argue against TV. They think TV is taking up too much of a person’s time and making him lazy, not to mention its harmful influence upon him. The author of this article, for example, is raising his voice against TV, urging viewers to turn off their sets and enjoy a precious quiet hour, an hour without the distraction of TV.This article was first published in Newsweek in 1976.Introductory Questions1. Some worthwhile programs are mentioned in the Editor’s Note. What are they? Can you cite some of them?(News, educational programs for children, plays, movies, concerts, etc.)2. What does Mayer suggest in his article?(He suggests that TV broadcasting be prohibited for an hour or so in the evening.)3. During that quiet hour, what might the family do without the distraction of TV?(They might sit around together and talk to one another.)4. What would be the immediate result if the family members could use that quiet hour to discuss their problem?(They would get to know each other better and to like each other better.)5. What other activities could families pursue besides such conversations?(They could take a ride to see the sunset or take a walk to see the neighborhood.)6. What would happen if the family could spend the quiet hour reading books?(A more literate new generation would appear.)7. What does the author suggest as an alternative to silent reading?(He suggests reading good stories aloud.)8. What good effects, according to Mayer, might be produced on TV programs is his proposal were accepted?(TV networks would be forced to come up with better shows.)9. How did Americans use to spend their spare time before TV came to control their lives?(They used to spend spare time partly with radio; also with reading, learning, talking, playing games.)10. What do you think of Mayer’s suggestion? Will it be accepted or not? Why or why not?(His suggestion sounds reasonable but hard to be put into practice. No one will give up something which has become so much a part of his life—not even for an hour.)Part Division of the T extFurther Understanding of the T extFor Part 11. T rue or False JudgmentDirection:The following True / False exercise is designed to help the students to obtain a general idea of the text.

(T)2) The author proposes to stop the television broadcasting on evening news in the United States.(F)The author proposes to stop the television broadcasting right after the early evening news in the United States.3) The time suggested by the author to turn off the TV is 90 minutes.(F)The time suggested by the author to turn off the TV is 60 to 90 minutes.2. Multiple ChoiceWhat functions does the first paragraph serve?A ) IntroductionB ) Describing the proposal in detailC ) Explaining why the author put forward his proposalKey: AFor Part 21.

People could1) communicate with each other better2) find more active entertainments3) read books so that they are well-educated4) read stories aloud5) watch the sunset6) see the neighborhood7) might come up with better programs2. Blank FillingFor Part 3Questions1. Why does the author think that it might be radical to Americans at the first glance?2. How long has the TV controlled the Americans’ life?3.
