Mass media are tools of commun­
ication.Mass media allow us to record and pass information rapidly to a large, scattered (分散的) audience.They extend our ability to communicate with each other by helping us overcome barriers caused by time and space.
There are various ways in which mass media make daily life easy for us. First, they inform and help us keep a watch on our world. They gather and pass on information we would be unlikely or unable to get on our own.
Second, mass media help us to arrange time and life. What we talk about and what we think about are greatly influenced by the media. When people get together, they tend to talk about certain happenings in the newspapers or on TV. Because we are exposed to different points of view through different kinds of media every day, we are able to evaluate (评价) all sides of a certain issue.
Third, the media are used to persuade people. A good example is advertisements through the media. Newspapers, magazines and TV are filled with all kinds of colorful, persuasive (说服的) advertisements. Though many advertisements may not say openly that they want you to buy a certain product, they describe their products in such a way that you may want to buy them.
Fourth, the media also entertain. All of the media make some efforts to entertain their audience. For instance, even though the newspaper is primarily a medium of information, it also contains entertainment features. Television, motion pictures, fiction books and some radio stations and magazines are devoted mainly to entertainment. It is estimated that in the future, the entertainment function of mass media will become even more important than it is now.

B
many of the people I knew did not. The answer is simple: The things I found to be easy to do, but they found to be easy not to do.
I found it easy to set the goals that could change my life. They found it easy not to. I found it easy to read the books that could affect my thinking. They found that easy not to. I found it easy to attend the classes. They said it probably really wouldn't matter. Six years later, I'm a millionaire and they are all still blaming the economy, the government and company policies. They neglected (忽视) to do the basic, easy things.
In fact, the primary reason most people are not doing can be summed up in a single word: neglect. It is not the lack of money — banks are full of money. It is not the lack of opportunity — the government continues to offer the most opportunities. It is not the lack of books — libraries are full of books and they are free! It is not the schools —the classrooms are full of good teachers. We have plenty of good advisors. The major reason that so few take advantage of all that we have is neglect.
Don't do the things which cause us to feel guilty (感到内疚的) and guilt erodes
activity. And as our activity goes down, so do our results. And as our results suffer, our attitude begins to weaken. And as our attitude begins changing from positive to
So my suggestion is that when giving choice of “easy to” and “easy not to”，
activities.

Ⅴ.阅读七选五
The summer vacation is just around the corner and many parents and children are looking forward to the months when alarm clocks don't sound in the early morning, bed times are pushed back a bit in the evening, and schedules relax in between. For many families, it is meaningful to participate in some summer camps. Consider the following seven tips to help you make the most of your experience.
__1__
If your child plays sports or dances throughout the school year, why not explore other opportunities in the summer months? Maybe your son has an interest in science that he'd like to investigate beyond the classroom. Perhaps your daughter has an interest in nature she'd like to explore.
Put the friend system into action.
Inquire if other parents (neighbors, parents of your child's friends) would be interested in having their child participate in the same camp. Having a friend take
part in the camp can make the adjustment easier, and parents can share a car together.
Don't be surprised by additional fees.
__2__ In addition to registration fees, are there equipment fees, snack fees, or other expenses for which you'll be responsible?
Check the weather forecast.
__3__ Fast­forward to three months and possibly add 20 degrees to the temperatur e. Will your child enjoy running the soccer field under the hot August sun? Perhaps an indoor camp during the late summer months might work better.
Prepare for outdoor activities.
Apply sunscreen before camp begins. Provide your child with a large water bottle and a healthy snack.__4__ Ask camp counselors or assistants how many breaks are permitted.
Arrive early to observe.
Pick a day to arrive early or stay a few minutes late so you can see the camp in action. Doing so gives you hands­on observation as to how the camp is organized.
__5__
Don't view day camp as simply a summer babysitting service. Ask your child about his or her day. Engage in a conversation about what activities they did.
A．If permitted, have your child wear a hat or sunglasses.
B．Be aware of the starting and ending times of the camp.
C．Show interest.
D．Town recreation departments, local schools, and churches are just some of the many places where you can find a variety of activities to fit your child's interests.
E．Use the summer to discover different interests.
F．When you are doing your camp research in May, an outdoor soccer clinic in August sounds great.
G．Know the entire cost of the camp before signing up.
语篇解读：暑假即将来临，对于很多家长而言，让自己的孩子参加某种夏令营是非常有意义的，但是如何才能让夏令营活动更加成功呢？本文给出了答案。

1．解析：选E interest为关键词，概括本段内容可知，利用暑假的时间去发现你的孩子是否还有其他的一些兴趣，故E项正确。

2．解析：选G fees为关键词，与G项中的cost意思相近，本段主要指出了要了解参加活动所需要的所有费用。

3．解析：选F 本段主要指出参加活动前要了解天气情况。

根据“Fast­forward to three
months ...”以及“running the soccer field under the hot August sun ...”等内容可知答案，当你在五月份做调查时，在八月份一个户外的足球讲习班是个不错的主意。

4．解析：选A 本段说明参加夏令营活动所要做的一些准备，上文指出涂抹防晒霜，给孩子带个大的水瓶以及一份健康的饮食，A项意为“如果允许的话，让你的孩子戴一个帽子或者一副太阳镜。

”
5．解析：选C 本段指出不要把夏令营当成只提供照看孩子的服务，要问问孩子参加活动的情况，和他们聊聊所参加的一些活动，由此可概括出本段标题，要表现出对这些活动的兴趣、关心，而不是不管不问。
