Watching television makes it easier for toddlers（学走路的孩子）to kick and scream, according to a U.S. study. Children under two should not watch any TV. The longer they sit in front of the box, the worse their behavior becomes.

Just having the TV on in the background, even if the child wasn’t watching it, was also connected to troublemaking behavior although the relationship wasn’t as strong, said the researchers.

“Parents should be smart about TV use,” researcher Jennifer Manganello from the University at Albany, New York, said.

“They should limit the time that children use TV, pay attention to the content of TV programs, and consider how TV is used throughout the home.”

The study looked at 3,128 women from 20 U.S. cities who had a child between 2005 and 2008.

While there was some diversity（差异）of education among the women, one-third hadn’t graduated from high school.

Two-thirds of the mothers said their three-year-old watched more than two hours of TV a day, and the average（平均的）viewing time for children was around three hours. On average, the TV was on for about five additional hours on a common day.

After accounting for factors（因素）such as living in a violent neighborhood, scientists also found watching TV was strongly connected to behavior such as hitting others, having angry moods, being disobedient（不服从的）, and screaming a lot.

The researchers thought that children may see violence on TV, and spend less time on positive development tasks such as reading or playing.

The American Academy of Paediatrics suggests no TV at all for children at two and younger, and two hours a day or less for older kids.

1.what is the main idea of the passage?

A.Children should choose positive programs.

B.Children should keep away from TV.

C.Watching TV can make children violent.

D.Parents should watch less TV.

2.what do we know from Paragraph 2?

A.Children can watch good programs.

B.Children will be affected as long as the TV is on.

C.It’s OK that the TV is on if children don’t watch it.

D.Children’s troublemaking behavior is mainly caused by watching TV.

3.what can be learned about the study between 2005~2008 from the passage?

A.The TV was on for about three hours.

B.The women studied have different jobs.

C.The study included men and women.

D.Most women allowed their child to watch TV.

4.Children who spend much time watching TV will ________.

A.not be hit by others

B.be influenced by others

C.become angry easily

D.know more about the neighborhood

There is no doubt that many parents want to mold (塑造)their child to be better, faster, smarter and more skilled. Even though human parents can’t do that, a robot that builds its own children can. Scientists at the University of Cambridge in England have created a mother robot that not only creates its own children, but tests out their performance.

The mother robot analyzes(分析)the performance of each of the “children” it creates, and passes down good characters to the next generation

For example, as the mother creates them and puts them to work, she measures how they’re behaving, and she uses data from this behavior to create the next generation of robots.

The mother robot can actually build hundreds of child robots and see the performance of these child robots. And if their performance is good, keep their design for the next generation. And if bad, just let it go.

“We program the robots based on some functions that define(规定)the reward the robots are going to get, depending on the construction that they make. They cannot change their own reward. For the child robot, the longer the distance the robot walks, the better the reward it receives,” said Fumiya Iida, the lead researcher.

After several generations, the “children” were running twice as fast.

“The mother robot produced 500 robots to see which one is good and which one is bad,” said Iida.

The researchers believe that the machines can be used in a car factory, for example, where robot cameras examine each ear in production line, find out any mistakes, and then design a better car.

1.What is special about the mother robot?

A. It can analyze data

B. It can create child robots

C. It’s smarter than human mothers

D. It can build and improve its own children.

2.How does the mother robot mold her own children to be better?

A. It teachers them how to behave better.

B. It reprograms the bad ones after analyzing their performance

C. It copies hundreds of child robots and then chooses the best ones.

D. It keeps the good characters for the next generation to create a better robot.

3.What is the key point in influencing the child robot to receive a reward?

A. Size　　 B. Distance.

C. Behavior　　 D. Speed.

高一英语阅读理解困难题查看答案及解析

Giving generously and receiving gratefully make it easier to live happily with others. Yet, why do we have such difficulty accomplishing these things in our relationships? I think people refuse to be generous with others because they fear being used.

For example, my husband and I have family members who only contact us when they need money. We usually accept their requests, but we rarely receive a “thank you”. Most people would say that my husband and I are being used. But when we give, we shouldn’t be giving for the purpose of getting gratitude. Rather, we should be giving because it’s a good thing to do.

Everything that we have, from our ability to wake up each morning to the money in our bank account, is a gift from the world. In return, the world asks us to use these gifts to help others, either by giving them our time or our resources. The good news is that when we live our lives being nice to others, our lives run more smoothly.

If you’re generous, yes, some people will use you. But if you practice being generous, most of your relationships will improve. And at the same time, we should remember to receive gratefully. I truly believe that you cannot say “thank you” enough.

So often we get lazy about expressing gratitude. Parents can feel unappreciated by their children, and teachers can feel unappreciated by their students. Just because a task is part of someone’s job description doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t thank them for it.

Words of appreciation make others feel good about themselves like nothing else. It’s good for us to say “thank you” because we often need to tell ourselves how lucky we are.

If you are looking for a way to improve your life, I can give you one: Give generously and receive gratefully.

1.The author mentions her family members in the article mainly to explain ______.

A. why we should give even if we feel we are being used

B. why people have trouble expressing gratitude

C. what makes people refuse to offer help

D. why it’s necessary to express gratitude

2.According to the author, why should we be grateful to those who help us?

A. It can bring us good luck.

B. Words of gratitude make people happy.

C. It’s not other people’s duty to help us.

D. All we normally get are gifts from the world.

3.The author wrote this article mainly to ______.

A. tell the importance of generosity

B. persuade people to give generously and receive thankfully

C. show how to express our gratitude to others

D. give tips on how to improve other people’s lives

Free energy is everywhere around us. There are many ways to make and collect energy from various sources like sun, wind and water. People also realize that everyday stuff can be a source of energy too. For example, riding a bike, running or just walking, etc. We simply have to change our way of thinking if we want to change the world.

So comes the idea of solar roadways. Are they the road of future? Why use roads just for driving and collecting tolls (过路费)? Why don’t we use them for collecting energy?

The US Department of Transportation recently awarded $100,000 to Solar Roadways to build the first ever Solar Road Panel. So how do these future roads work?

The Solar Road Panels will contain embedded (嵌入的) LEDs which “paint” the road lines from beneath to provide safer nighttime driving as well as to give drivers instant instructions such as detour (绕行) ahead. The road will be able to sense wildlife on the road and can warn drivers to “slow down”. There will also be embedded heating elements in the surface to prevent snow and ice buildup, providing safer winter driving.

Replacing asphalt (沥青) roads and parking lots with Solar Roadway Panels will be a major step toward stopping climate change. Fully electric vehicles will be able to recharge along the roadway and in parking lots, finally making electric cars practical for long trips.

We just can’t wait to see more of these roads all over the world in the near future.

1.The first paragraph serves as a(n) ________.

A. argument            B. comment            C. explanation        D. background

2.When some animals are on the solar road, what will the road do?

A. Guide them to a safer place.

B. Remind drivers to drive slowly.

C. Frighten them away from the road.

D. Advise drivers to choose another way.

3.From the text, we can know that the Solar Road Panels can ________.

A. provide heat for drivers in winter

B. guide drivers who get lost on the highway

C. melt snow and ice soon in winter

D. help drivers see the road clearly in the sun

4.What is the text mainly about?

A. Functions of the road in the future.

B. Development of solar energy.

C. Free energy on the road.

D. Solar road of the future.
