　　Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Eachstatement 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.

　　TV Linked to Lower Marks

　　A) The effect of television on children has been debated ever since the first sets were turned on. Now three new studies find that too much tube time can lower test scores, retard learning and even predict college performance. The reports appear in the July issue of the Archives of Pediatrics & Ado-lescent Medicine.

　　B) In the first report, researchers studied 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 achievementon mathematics, reading and language arts tests," said study author Dina L.G. Borzekowski, an as-sistant professor at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.

　　C) Borzekowski and her colleague, Dr. Thomas Robinson of Stanford University, collected data on386 third graders and their parents about 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 ac-cess 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) The reasons why TV has this negative effect are not clear, 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 to know how early or how late the set is on. This seems to be associated with kids' performance on academic tests." Borzekowski believes that 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 Ot ago 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 a lot 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 of5 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) Hancox's team found that watching TV at an early age had the most effect on graduating from college. "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 paper, Frederick J. Zimmerman and Dr. Dimitri A. Christakis from the University of Washington report 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 co nsider able beneficial effect compared to children who watched a lot of TV."

　　I) For children aged 3 to 5, the effect was not as clear, Zimmerman said. "There were some beneficial 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 can have both positive and negative effects, but it all depends on what children are watching. "Content matters," said Deborah L. Line barger, an assistant professor at the University of Pennsylvania, who co-authored an accompanying editorial. "Educational content has been found to be related to performance on school readiness tests, higher grades when they are teen-agers, whereas, non-educational content tends to be associated with lower academic performance."

　　K) Another expert agrees. "TV watching takes up space that could be used by more useful things," said Dr. Christopher P. Lucas, a clinical coordinator at the Early Childhood Evaluation and Treatment Program at the New York University Child Study Center. "TV is not necessarily toxic, but is some-thing that has to be done in moderation; something that balances the other needs of the child for healthy development."

　　L) Lucas puts the responsibility for how much TV kids watch and what they watch squarely on parents. "The amount of TV watching certainly has a link with the reduced amount of time reading or doing homework," he said. "The key is the amount of control parents have in limiting the amount of access. Get the TV out of the bedroom; be aware of what is being watched; limit the amount of TV watching."

　　46. According to Borzekowski, children having chances to use a family computer are likely to acquire better results on the different tests.

　　47. The reports issued in the Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescents Medicine find that watching too much TV leads to poor performance in school.

　　48. Watching more than three hours of TV before age 3 has bad effect on kids.

　　49. According to the second report, the chance for one to acquire a college degree depends on the amount of his TV watching during childhood.

　　50. In Deborah L. Lingbarger's opinion, educational content is helpful for teenagers to get better results on school readiness tests.

　　51. The environment of family media greatly affects children's test scores according to the first report.

　　52. Borzekowski believes that TV's negative effect on children's marks may mainly lie in what children watch on TV and how much time they spend on it.

　　53. Lucas thinks parents should take the responsibility to supervise kids' TV watching.

　　54. According to the recommendation from American Academy of Pediatrics, children under 2 should watch no TV.

　　55. Hancox thinks earlier childhood TV watching affects one's acquiring a college degree most.

　　SectionB

　　电视机与成绩差有关

　　A.)自电视机问世以来，其对孩子的影响便一直颇具争议。【47】目前，有三项新的研究发现，看电视事假太长会导致学习成绩下降，妨碍学习进步，甚至影响在大学的成绩。这三项研究报告刊截在7月份的《儿科和青春期医学档案》杂志上。

　　B)在第一份报告中，研究人员研究在三年级学生的卧室里放置电视对他们的影响。其中的一位研究人员是约翰霍普金斯大学彭博公共卫生学院的助理教授DinaL.G.Borzekowski，她表示：“我们研究的是家庭媒体环境对数学、阅读和语言艺术等科目测试成绩的影响。”

　　C)Borzekowski和她的同事，斯坦福大学的Thomas Robinson博士，调查了386位三年级学生及其父母，收集了大量关于孩子看电视花费的时间、家中的电视机、电脑和视频游戏设备的数量及其摆放位置。他们还收集了一些关于孩子在不同媒体上所花的时间和在家庭作业与阅读上所花的时间的数据。研究人员发现，家中媒体设备的摆放位置和使用方式对孩子的学习有重要的影响。【51】Borzekowski表示：“我们发现家庭媒体环境与孩子不同的测验分数的表现有密切的关系。”

　　D)她表示：“卧室有电视机的孩子，其数学成绩比卧室没有电视机的孩子很可能会低8分。”而且他们的阅读和语言艺术考试成绩也相对降低。可是Borzekowski又说，【46】可以使用家庭电脑的孩子比家中没有电脑的孩子更有可能在这些科目的测试中取程更高的分数。

　　E)Borzekowsk表示目前关于电视会造成这种负面影响的原因尚不明确。她说：“如果孩子的卧室有电视机，家长便不太可能控制孩子们观看的内容和时间。他们也不可能知道孩子们多早或多晚打开电视机。这似乎与孩子的学习成绩有关。”【52】 Bomekows】认为电视内容和观看的时间可能是导致电视机的负面影响的主要原因。“如果电视在客厅，那么家长便可以知道孩子所观看的内容，”她说。 “家长可以选择坐在旁边一起观看，或者将电视机关掉。一个简单、直接、有效地方式就是不要在孩子的卧室放电视机，如果已经放了，那就搬出来吧。”

　　G)Hancox的研究团队还发现儿童时期看电视对从大学毕业的影响最大。他说：“一项有趣的发现是，虽然少年时期看电视很可能会导致没有毕业就离开学校，但是对能否取得学位影响最大的却是童年时期看电视。这表明，在童年时期，过度看电视会对学业造成长期持续的不利影响。”

　　H)在第三份报告中，Frederick J.Zimmerman和来自华盛顿大学的Dimitri A.Christakis博士认为，对于幼儿来说，看电视会导致数学、阅读认知和阅读理解的分数降低。Zimmerman表示“我们研究了孩子在3岁以前和在3到5岁之间看电视所花的时间的数量，结果发现与花许多时间看电视的孩子相比，小时候很少看电视的孩子有相当大的优势。”

　　J)一位专家认为，电视有积极和消极的影响，而这完全取决于孩子所看的内容。宾夕法尼亚大学的助理教授Deborah L.Linebarger曾参与编写一篇补充社论，他认为：“内容很重要。【50】教育性的内容与入学须备考试的成绩有关，有助于青少年取得更好的成绩，而非教育性的力容则往往导致学习成绩下降。”

　　K)另外一位专家Christopher P.Lucas博士也同意这一观点。他是纽约大学儿童研究中心幼儿评价与治疗计划的临床协调员，他认为：“看电视会占据用于做其他更有用的事情的时间。电视不一定有害处，但是看电视应该适度。为了孩子的健康发展，看电视要和孩子的其他需求保持平衡。”

　　L)【53】Lucae认为孩子看电视的时间和内容该完全由父母负责监督。他说：“看电视的时间太长，自然就会减少阅读或做家庭作业的时间。关键在于家长要控制孩子看电视的时间。把电视从卧室里搬出来，要知道孩子观看的内容，限制看电视的时间。”

　　46.According to Borzekowski，children having chances to use a family computer are likely to acquire better re-suits on the different tests.Borzekowski发现能接触使用家用电脑的孩子各项测试成绩一般更好。
