Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2. The relationship between TV and Marks A) There has been a debate on the effect of television on children since the appearance of TV. Recently,three new studies identified that too much TV time can lower test scores, retard learning and even affect college performance. The Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine issued it in the July. B) Researchers claimed in their first study that the effect that having a TV in a child's bedroom can have on third graders. "We looked at the household media environment in relation to academic achievement on mathematics, reading and language arts tests," said study author Dina L.G. Borzekowski, an assistant professor at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. C) Borzekowski and Dr. Thomas Robinson(his colleague) of Stanford University, collected data on386 third graders and their parents on how much TV the children watched, the number of TV sets, computers and video game consoles in the household and where they were. They also collected data on how much time the children spent using the different media, as well as the time spent doing homework and reading. The researchers found that the media in the household, where it is and how it is used can have a profound effect on learning. "We found that the household media environment has a very close association with performance on the different test scores," Borzekowski said. D) "A child who has a TV in his or her bedroom is likely to have a score that is eight points lower on a mathematics test compared to a child who doesn't have a TV in the bedroom," she noted. These children also scored lower on the reading and language arts tests. However, children who have access to a home computer are likely to have higher scores on each of the tests compared with children who don't have access to a home computer, Borzekowski noted. E) It is yet not clear on the reasons why TV has this negative effect, Borzekowski said
"When there's TV in the bedroom,parents are less likely to have control over the content and the amount watched,"Borzekowski said "They are also unable know how early or how late the set is on.This seems to be associated with kids performance on academic tests."According to Borzekowski,content and the time the TV is on may be the primary reasons for its negative effect."If the TV is in the family room,then parents can see the content of what children are watching,"she "Parents can ose to sit alongside and watch,or tum the set off.Asimpl and straightforward,positive parenting strategy is to keep the TV out of the child's bedroom,or remove it if it's already there." F)In the second report,Dr.Robert J.Hancox from the University of Otago in Dunedin,New Zealand,and colleagues found,regardless of your intelligence or social background,if you watch a lot of TV du ring childhood.、 you are much less ikely to ha ave a college degree by your mid-20s.In their study,the researchers followed 1,037 people born in 1972 and 1973.Every two years,between the ages of 5 and 15.they were asked how much television they watched.The researchers found that those who watched the most television during these vears had earned fewer degrees by the time they were 26."We found that the more television the child had atched,the more likely they were to le ve scho ool with an qualifications Hancox said in a prepared statement."Those who watched little television had the best chance of going on to university and eaming a degree. G)Watching TV at an early age had the most effect on graduating from college. Hancox's team found."An interesting finding was that although teenage viewing linked to le vithout y qualific viewing that had d the greatest impact on getting a degree,"he said suggests that excessive television in younger children has a long-lasting adverse effect on educational performance." H)In the third report.Frederick J.Zimmerman and Dr.Dimitri A.Christakis the University of Washington propos that,for very oung childre watching TV can result in lo er te 0 in mat ematics,read and reading comprehension."We looked at how much television children watched before age 3 and then at ages 3 to 5."Zimmerman said."We found that for children who watched a small amount of TV in the earlier years,there was consider able beneficial effect compared to children who watched a lot of V." ever it was not so clea children age "There were some good effects of watching TV on reading.but no beneficial effects for math or vocabulary."he noted."The worst pattern was to watch more than three hours of Ty before age 3 Those kids had a significant disadvantage compared to the other kids."Parents should follow the American Academy of Pediat mendation,which is noTV for childrer under 2 Zin m said "Personally,I feel the cutoff should be children under3 because there is just not any good content for children under 3.

新编大学英语四级全真模拟试题（四）第3页 "When there's TV in the bedroom, parents are less likely to have control over the content and the amount watched," Borzekowski said. "They are also unable to know how early or how late the set is on. This seems to be associated with kids' performance on academic tests." According to Borzekowski,content and the time the TV is on may be the primary reasons for its negative effect. "If the TV is in the family room, then parents can see the content of what children are watching," she said. "Parents can choose to sit alongside and watch, or turn the set off. A simple and straightforward, positive parenting strategy is to keep the TV out of the child's bedroom, or remove it if it's already there." F) In the second report, Dr. Robert J. Hancox from the University of Otago in Dunedin, New Zealand, and colleagues found, regardless of your intelligence or social background, if you watch a lot of TV during childhood, you are much less likely to have a college degree by your mid-20s. In their study, the researchers followed 1,037 people born in 1972 and 1973. Every two years, between the ages of 5 and 15, they were asked how much television they watched. The researchers found that those who watched the most television during these years had earned fewer degrees by the time they were 26."We found that the more television the child had watched, the more likely they were to leave school without any qualifications," Hancox said in a prepared statement. "Those who watched little television had the best chance of going on to university and earning a degree." G) Watching TV at an early age had the most effect on graduating from college. Hancox's team found. "An interesting finding was that although teenage viewing was strongly linked to leaving school without any qualifications, it was earlier childhood viewing that had the greatest impact on getting a degree," he said. "This suggests that excessive television in younger children has a long-lasting adverse effect on educational performance." H) In the third report, Frederick J. Zimmerman and Dr. Dimitri A. Christakis from the University of Washington propose that, for very young children, watching TV can result in lower test scores in mathematics, reading recognition and reading comprehension. "We looked at how much television children watched before age 3 and then at ages 3 to 5," Zimmerman said. "We found that for children who watched a small amount of TV in the earlier years, there was consider able beneficial effect compared to children who watched a lot of TV." I) However, it was not so clear about the effect on children aged 3-5, Zimmerman said. "There were some good effects of watching TV on reading, but no beneficial effects for math or vocabulary," he noted. "The worst pattern was to watch more than three hours of TV before age 3. Those kids had a significant disadvantage compared to the other kids." Parents should follow the American Academy of Pediatrics recommendation, which is no TV for children under 2, Zimmerman said. "Personally, I feel the cutoff should be children under 3, because there is just not any good content for children under 3." J) One expert believes that TV contents matters the most, she believes TV can have both positive and negative effects, but it all depends on what children are watching, said Deborah L.

新编大学英语四级全真模拟试题（四）第5页 Passage One Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage. Have you ever found yourself having difficulties getting up in the morning? Maybe most people take it as laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle. You may say that you're "hot" during the hours when you labor through your work. That's true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak.For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening.No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as: "Get up,John! You'll be late for work again!" The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You can only learn to make your life fit the energy cycle better but can't change it. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (对抗) your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle, but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point. Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours. 56. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably ________. A. he refuses to follow his own energy cycle B. he is a lazy person C. he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening D. he is not sure when his energy is low 57. According to the passage,which of the following may lead to family quarrels? A. Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members. B. Familiar monologues. C. A change in a family member's energy cycle. D.Unawareness of energy cycles. 58. If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should______. A . get up earlier than usual B. change his energy cycle C. overcome his laziness D. go to bed earlier 59. You are recommended to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will ________. A. help you to control your temper early in the day
B.help to keep your energy for the day's work enable you to concen rate n your routine ork D.keep your energy cycle under control all day 60.Which of the following sentences is not true? A.Children have energy circle too. B.Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle C Dr.Kleitm explains why people rea ch t r peaksat different hoursof day D.Getting offto work with a minimum effort helps save one's energy. Passage Two Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage. If you could just look up at the sky and read the weather forecast right away, how gre it would be!But,can it be possible?Well,you CAN.The forecast is writte you n red that youcn tel somethng bou the atmosphere With some practice,you can become a pretty good weather forecaster.Who knows, you might even do as well as meteorologists.

What are you se eing when you look at a cloud?"A picture of what moistur is doing in the atmosphere,"says meteorologist Peter Leavit.There's moisture throughout the atmosphere.Most of the time you don't see it,because it's in the form of an invisible gas called water vapor.Sometimes,the temperature of the air gets cold enough to cause the water vapor to change to liquid water.That's called condensation and v see it h appen all the time xample.v yhen hu nid air fro n the er hits 0 the cold glass of a mirror.When enough water vapor condenses,droplets form in the air.These droplets scatter light.Acloud is seen.

Which of the following sentences is not true? A. Children have energy circle too. B. Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle. C. Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of day. D. Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy. Passage Two Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage. If you could just look up at the sky and read the weather forecast right away， how great it would be! But, can it be possible?Well, you CAN. The forecast is written in clouds. If you can read that writing, you can tell something about the atmosphere. With some practice, you can become a pretty good weather forecaster. Who knows, you might even do as well as meteorologists . Meteorologists use much more information than just the appearance of the clouds to make their forecast. They collect data from all over the world. Then they put it into powerful, high-speed computers.This does give meteorologists an advantage, because they can track weather patterns as they move from west to east across the country.But you have an advantage, too. You have your brains. You can look at the sky and get your data directly. A meteorologist uses a computer forecast that’s several hours old to make a local forecast. What are you seeing when you look at a cloud? “A picture of what moisture is doing in the atmosphere,”says meteorologist Peter Leavit. There’s moisture throughout the atmosphere. Most of the time you don't see it, because it's in the form of an invisible gas called water vapor. Sometimes, the temperature of the air gets cold enough to cause the water vapor to change to liquid water. That’s called condensation, and we see it happen all the time, for example, when humid air from the shower hits the cold glass of a mirror. When enough water vapor condenses, droplets form in the air. These droplets scatter light. A cloud is seen. Watching clouds over a day or two tells you a lot more than a single cloud about the weather to come. Changes in clouds show changes in the atmosphere. You should begin to notice patterns. Certain clouds, fol1owing each other in order, can signal an approaching storm. But don’t take our word for it; see for yourself. 注意：此部分试题请在答题卡 2 上作答。 61.What the underlined word “meteorologists” mean? A. People who do the job of weather forecast. B.
