Forget Twitter and Facebook, Google and the Kindle. Television is still the most influential medium around. Indeed, for many of the poorest regions(地区) of the world, it remains the next big thing—finally becomes globally available. And that is a good thing, because the TV revolution is changing lives for the better.Across the developing world, around 45% of families had a TV in 1995; by 2005 the number had climbed above 60%. That is some way behind the U.S., where there are more TVs than people, and where people now easily get access to the Internet. Five million more families in sub-Saharan Africa will get a TV over the next five years. In 2005 , after the fall of the Taliban（塔利班）, which had banned TV, 1 in 5 Afghans had one. The global total is another 150 million by 2013—pushing the numbers to well beyond two thirds of families.Television’s most powerful effect will be on the lives of women. In India, researchers Robert Jensen and Emily Oster found that when TVs reached villages, women were more likely to go to the market without their husbands’ approval and less likely to want a boy rather than a girl. They were more likely to make decisions over child health care. TV is also a powerful medium for adult education. In the Indian state of Gujarat, Chitrageet is a popular show that plays Bollywood songs with words in Gujarati on the screen. Within six months, viewers had made a small but significant improvement in their reading skills.Too much TV has been associated with violence, overweight and loneliness.

选项中有两项为多余选项。

What makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? 6 We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. 7 Mental exercise (done with the mind) is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about.8 If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.9 According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot (白痴), then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive things to their children, such as “10 ” or “You are such a smart child.”A.It needs exercise.B.Parents should also be careful what they say to young children.C.These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.D.Child psychologists don’t believe it.E.The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent.F.You must be careful what you are doing.G.That is a very clever thing you did.II. 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）When Alice started to cycle home from Jenny’s house, she wasn’t nervous.
