根据下列文章,请回答 21~25 题。
Text 1
I" d like to propose that for sixty to ninety minutes every evening fight after the early evening news, all television broadcasting in America be prohibited by law.
Let us take a serious, reasonable look at what the results might be if such a proposal were accepted. Families might use the time for a real family hour. Without the distraction of TV, they might sit around together after dinner and actually communicate with one another. It is well known that many of our problems -- everything, in fact, from the generation gap to the high divorce rate to some forms of mental illness -- are caused at least in part by failure to communicate. We do not tell each other what makes us feel disturbed. The result is emotional difficulty of one kind or another. By using the quiet family hour to discuss our problems, we might get to know each other better, and to like each other better.
On evenings when such talk is unnecessary, families could rediscover more active pastimes.Freed from TV, forced to find their own activities, they might take a ride together to watch the sunset, or they might take a walk together (remember feet?) and see the neighborhood with fresh new eyes.
With free time and no TV, children and adults might rediscover reading. There is more entertainment in a good book than in a month of typical TV programming. Educators report that the generation growing up with television can barely write an English sentence, even at the college level. Writing is often learned from reading. A more literate new generation could be a product of the quiet hour.
A different form. of reading might also be done, as it was in the past: reading aloud. Few hobbies bring a family closer together than gathering around and listening to mother or father read a good story. The quiet hour could become the story hour. When the quiet hour ends, the TV networks form. our newly discovered activities.
At first glance, the idea of an hour without TV seems radical. What will parents do without the electronic baby-sitter? How will we spend the time? But it is not radical at all. It has been only twenty-five years since television came to control American free time. The people who are thirty five and older can remember childhood without television, spent partly with radio -- which at least involved the listener" s imagination -- but also with reading, learning, talking, playing games, in venting new activities. It wasn" t that difficult. Honest. The truth is that we had a ball.
第 21 题 The failure to talk to each other causes all of the following EXCEPT
A.the high divorce rate.
B.a real family hour.
C.the generation gap.
D.some forms of mental illness. 请帮忙给出正确答案和分析,谢谢!
参考答案
正确答案:B
我提议美国法律应禁止每天傍晚的晚间新闻之后的60到90分钟里播出任何电视节目。让我们认真地,合理地推想一下如果这个建议被接受了的话,结果会是怎样。各个家庭会真正与家人共享这段时间。没有电视分散注意力,他们会在晚饭后坐在一起真正地相互交流。众所周知我们的许多问题——其实是所有的问题,从代沟到居高不下的离婚率,再到某些心理疾病——都至少是部分地由于缺乏交流造成的。我们不向彼此倾诉困扰我们的事情。结果就造成这种或那种心理问题。利用这段安静的家人共享的时间讨论一下我们的问题,我们会加深对彼此的了解和感情。在不必进行这种谈话的夜晚,各个家庭会重新发现更为积极的娱乐方式。他们若从电视中解放出来,被迫去找自己的活动,他们会一起骑车去看日落,或一起散散步(还记得脚吗?),用与平时不同的眼光看一看附近的景色。有了空闲时间而又没有电视,孩子和大人会重新开始阅读。一本好书带来的娱乐比一个月的电视节目带来的娱乐还要多。教育人士报告说看电视长大的一代几乎写不出完整的英文句子,甚至上过大学的也是如此。写作通常是从阅读中学来的。读写能力更强的新一代应是安静的家人共享时间的产物。也可以进行另一种阅读,就像在过去那样:大声朗读。没有什么爱好能像坐在一起听妈妈或爸爸读一本好小说那样把家庭更紧密地凝聚在一起。这段安静的时间可以成为小说时间。这段时间结束后,电视网络又构成我们新近发现的活动。乍一看,这个一小时不看电视的想法似乎有点激进。没有这个电子保姆,父母们做什么呢?我们怎样打发时间呢?但这个想法一点也不偏激。只是在最近这25年里,电视才开始控制美国人的空余时间。35岁或更大的人会记得没有电视的童年,那时人们有时听听收音机——这至少还可以让听众有点想像的空间——但也读书、学习、聊天、做游戏和发明新的活动。说实话,那样做并不难。事实上我们那个时候玩得很痛快。答案及解析【解析】人和人之间缺少交流引起的问题,文章第二段中间部分说到了:everything,infact,fromthegenerationgaptothehighdivorceratetosomeformsofmentalillness.惟独没有arealfamilyhour。
