PART III READING COMPREHENSION (30 Points) D In this section there are three reading passages followed by a total of fifteen multiple-choice questions. Read the passages and then write your answers on your answer sheet.
Passage 1 Social critics and the general public in the United States have blamed television for every social ill from declining academic performance to juvenile delinquency. Concentrating on the negatives, however, sometimes leads people to ignore the equally important questions about the positive contributions television does make or could make. Clearly, the content of television can be beneficial or harmful. What about the medium of television itself? as a that Some medium contend engenders television intellectual passivity, displaces creative and intellectually demanding activities, and interferes with schoolwork. The evidence does not support the worst fears of television's critics. Television displaces some activities, but primarily those that are functionally similar to it. Television viewing is associated with low school achievement and low reading ability, but these effects appear to be due to or confounded by other variables such as time spent viewing. On the positive side, properly designed television can teach reading skills and motivate children to read. can watch People actively television Television does not inherently encourage passivity, intellectual or physical. Young children's patterns of attention and learning from television demonstrate that when they are absorbed in television they are mentally active and selective. They think about and evaluate what they are seeing. However, the predominance of "pure entertainment" on television in the United States eventually leads viewers to adopt an attitude that television requires little mental effort because they believe the medium is undemanding and are passively. or confirmed in this view by the banal nature of many programs. Television formats, forms, and production techniques can be used to stimulate viewers to think actively about what they are viewing or to interact with the program. Children learn to "read" the production cues denoting interesting and comprehensible content. Well-placed special effects can direct attention, formats can signal important content, and production features can emphasize content messages. These techniques are used in good educational programs to maximize viewer involvement. 1. The author mentions "declining academic performance" in line 2 in order to A. describe how it contributes to juvenile delinquency. B. argue that television causes a reduction in brain cells. C. support teachers' efforts to limit television viewing. D. give an example of a consequence attributed to television viewing. 2. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as an effect of excessive television viewing? A. Neglect of schoolwork B. Replacement of more challenging activities
C. Intellectual passivity D. Damage to eyesight 3. The author suggests that children who learn to read through television. A. absorb more information from television than from schoolwork. B. are more sight-oriented than sound-oriented. C. watch television more actively than is commonly believed. D. have a difficult time transferring their reading skills to books. 4. The author believes that viewers have a negative opinion of television in the United States because A. it tends to shorten the attention span of children. B. it is largely devoted to entertaining programming. C. its programs are frequently interrupted by technical problems. D. it contributes to low self-esteem. 5. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. Educational programs are difficult to produce. B. Television formats have undergone few changes in the past decade. C. Television programming can be designed to increase viewer involvement. D. Special effects on television have replaced the role of the imagination. Passage 2 In some countries where racial prejudice is acute, violence has so come to be taken for granted as a means of solving differences, that it is not even questioned. There are countries where the white man imposes his rule by brute force; there are countries where the black man protests by setting fire to cities and by looting and pillaging. Important people on both sides, who would in other respects, appear to be reasonable men, get up and calmly argue in favor of violence – as if it were a legitimate solution, like any other. What is really frightening, what really fills you with despair, is the realization that when it comes to the crunch, we have made no actual progress at all. We may wear collars and ties instead of war- paint, but our instincts remain basically unchanged. The whole of the recorded history of the human race, that tedious documentation of violence, has taught us absolutely nothing. We have still not learnt that violence never solves a problem but makes it more acute. The sheer horror, the bloodshed, the suffering mean nothing. No solution ever comes to light the morning after when we dismally contemplate the smoking ruins and wonder what hit us. The truly reasonable men who know where the solutions lie are finding it harder and harder to get a hearing. They are despised, mistrusted and even persecuted by their own kind because they advocate such apparently outrageous things as law enforcement. If half the energy that goes into violent acts were put to good use, if our efforts were directed at cleaning
