23、Daniel Anderson, a famous psychologist, believes it’s important to distinguish television’s influences on children from those of the family. We tend to blame TV, he says, for problems it doesn’t really cause, overlooking our own roles in shaping children’s minds.
One traditional belief about television is that it reduces a child’s ability to think and to understand the world. While watching TV, children do not merely absorb words and images (影像). Instead, they learn both explicit and hidden meanings from what they see. Actually, children learn early the psychology of characters in TV shows. Furthermore, as many teachers agree, children understand far more when parents watch TV with them, explaining new words and ideas. Yet, most parents use an educational program as a chance to park their kids in front of the set and do something in another room.
Another argument against television is that it replaces reading as a form of entertainment. But according to Anderson, the amount of time spent watching television is not related to reading ability. TV doesn’t take the place of reading for most children; it takes the place of similar sorts of recreation, such as listening to the radio and playing sports. Things like parents’ educational background have a stronger influence on a child’s reading. “A child’s reading ability is best predicted by how much a parent reads.” Anderson says.
Traditional wisdom also has it that heavy television-watching lowers IQ (智商) scores and affects school performance. But here, too, Anderson notes that no studies have proved it. In fact, research suggests that it’s the other way around. “If you’re smart young, you’ll watch less TV when you’re older,” Anderson says. Yet, people of lower IQ tend to be lifelong television viewers.
For years researchers have attempted to show that television is dangerous to children. However, by showing that television promotes none of the dangerous effects as conventionally believed, Anderson suggests that television cannot be condemned without considering other influences.
【1】By watching TV, children learn _________.
A．images through words
B．more than explicit meanings
C．more about images than words
D．little about people’s psychology
【2】Which of the following is most related to children’s reading ability?
A．Radio-listening
B．Television-watching
C．Parents’ reading list
D．Parents’ educational background
【3】Anderson believed that _________.
A．the more a child watches TV, the smarter he is
B．the younger a child is, the more he watches TV
C．the smarter a child is, the less likely he gets addicted to TV
D．the less a child watches TV, the better he performs at school
【4】What is the main purpose of the passage?
A．To advise on the educational use of TV.
B．To describe TV’s harmful effects on children.
C．To explain traditional views on TV influences.
D．To present Anderson’s unconventional ideas.
24、The Pope John XXIII Regional High School robotics team has brought about many crea-tions in its laboratories.Most of these creations have earned them prizes in their robotics leagues,articles in local media and praise from many people around the world.None of them,however, can equal to what they experienced during one of their most recent projects.
The robotics team helped design and build an electrically during one of their most recent projects, girl during an event snonsored by the GoBabyGo program and Toyota.The goal of the disabled is to build an electncally opiated vehicle and meet the needs of a specific disabled child.After hearing about the program,the robotics team jumped on the opportunity.
When they got to the hospital for the event，the team members joined forces with engi-neers from University of Delaware,Toyota employees and and doctors to help a girl named Jaleah.
Using instructions provided on an iPad by GoBabyGo,they put together a plastic battery-oper-ated vehicle-one of 12 that were made at the event-that was bespoke to Jaleah. Her vehicle was a baby blue jeep that had designs from the hit Disney movie Frozen and was decorated with snowflakes (雪花)，butterflies and flowers.
More importantly，the team rerouted the electrical system in the car so that Jaleah only needed to push a large button on the steering wheel to drive the car, giving her the freedom to move. In addition, they helped design special seating structure to keep Jaleah safely secured.
When they completed the project, Jaleah and her parents’ reactions took the PJ robotics members by surprise.“It was really satisfying,” PJ junior Austin Fett said. “When she was riding it, she was having so much fun. It was a great feeling. ”
While they are looking forward to their future projects and competitions in the FIRST Technology Challenge league, the robotics team will always remember the days they helped Jaleah become a mobile kid.
“We made something that she will love and use forever，” PJ senior Keith Johnson said.
