【2022·临沂3月质量检测】
It can be hard to encourage families of preschoolers to turn off the TV，but there are plenty of high­quality shows that promote learning and positive relationships rather than violence，researchers noted.
“Although clearly kids watch too much，what’s more worrying is that they watch poor quality shows，” said Dr Christakis，the lead researcher on the new study from the University of Washington in Seattle.His former survey of parents of three­to five­year­old children showed the kids often watched violent cartoons and movies that are “totally inappropriate”．
For their study，he and his colleagues randomly divide 565 preschoolers into two groups.In one group，parents recorded notes about kids’ normal TV viewing，without receiving any guidelines to reduce or change those habits.In the other group，researchers made visits and calls and sent monthly newsletters encouraging parents to replace violent TV with educational programming.After six and 12 monthsparents reported their kid’s angry，aggressive or anxious behaviors on a questionnaire.At both time points，children in the TV intervention (干预) program had slightly fewer problems than those in the comparison group.Boys in low­income families seemed to benefit most from the change in programming，the researchers found.
“The point is，this is something that is as effective as other things we do to try to guide behavior in children，and it’s fairly simple，” Christakis said.
Another study published in Pediatrics found the more TV kids and teens watched，the more likely they were to have a crime or other problems in society.Children may imitate violence they see—or more time in front of the TV could simply mean less communication with peers and families，and worse performance in school.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends kids watch no more than one to two hours of high­quality programming each day.Researchers agreed parents should be mindful of what exactly their young kids are watching on TV as well.“It’s not just about turning the TV off，it’s about changing the channel，” Christakis said.
1．What is the positive effect of high­quality TV shows on kids?
A．Good learning results and relationships.
B．Being affected by violence.
C．Spending less time on TV programming.
D．Encouraging them to turn on the TV.
2．For Christakis，what is more concerning?
A．Kids watching too much TV.
B．TV shows being of poor quality.
C．Kids watching too many cartoons.
D．Parents receiving no guidelines.
3．We can learn from the survey mentioned in Para.3 that________.
A．Children don’t like being disturbed while watching TV
B．Preschoolers seems to like newsletters more than TV
C．Poor children prefer to watch educational programming
D．Kids watching high­quality programs have fewer problems
4. Christakis thought the effect of educational programming on children’s behaviour was________.
A．unclear 　 B．slight
C．obvious 　 D．great
5．According to the researchers，________.
A．getting preschoolers away from TV is difficult
B．shows on TV in America are full of violence
C．parents should communicate more with their kids
D．parents should keep an eye on what kids watch on TV

[社会生活型阅读理解一)]
Life is to be enjoyed. There's no point in giving up something you enjoy unless you get something back that's even better. When people eat more healthfully, exercise, quit smoking, and manage stress better, they find that they feel so much better that it reconstructs the reason for making these changes from fear of dying to joy of living. The latest studies show that when you exercise and eat right：
YOUR BRAIN receives more blood flow and oxygen, so you become smarter, think more clearly, have more energy, and need less sleep. Two studies showed that just walking for three hours per week for only three months caused so many new neurons (神经细胞) to grow that it actually increased the size of people's brains!
YOUR FACE receives more blood flow, so your_skin_glows more and wrinkles less. You look younger and more attractive. In contrast, an unhealthy diet, chronic emotional stress and smoking reduce blood flow to your face so you age more quickly. Smoking accelerates aging because nicotine causes your arteries (动脉) to narrow down, which decreases blood flow to your face and makes it wrinkle earlier. This is why smokers look years older than they really are.
YOUR GENES change. In May, a study was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences showing that changing your lifestyle changes your genes.
YOUR TELOMERES (染色体端粒) get longer. Telomeres are the ends of our chromosomes (染色体) that control how long we live. As telomeres become shorter, then cells age more quickly, thus shortening our lives.
Besides, one of the most interesting findings in the study was that the mothers' awareness of stress was more important than what was really occurring in their lives. The researchers gave the women a questionnaire and asked them to rate on a threepoint scale how stressed they felt each day, and how out of control their lives felt to them. The women who were aware that they were under heavy stress had significantly shortened and damaged telomeres compared with those who felt more relaxed. On the contrary, some of the women who felt relaxed despite raising a disabled child had more normalappearing telomeres.
In other words, if you feel stressed, you are stressed; if you feel fine, you are fine.
1．Which of the following are good for lengthening one's life, according to the passage?
① eat healthy food ② drink plenty of water ③ take exercise ④ get up early ⑤ go to sleep early ⑥ release one's stress
A．①③⑥
B．①②③
C．①⑤⑥
D．③④⑥
2．The underlined words “your skin glows” in Paragraph 3 are closest in meaning to “________”．
A．your skin becomes white as there is plenty of sunshine
B．your skin becomes smooth as there is much blood in it
C．your skin looks pink as you are healthy
D．your skin becomes soft as you exercise enough
3．In the author's opinion, when you exercise and eat right, you will experience some changes EXCEPT ________．
A．brains becoming cleverer
B．faces having fewer wrinkles
C．arteries turning narrower
D．genes being changed
4．From the last but one paragraph we learn that ________．
A．mothers will have more damaged telomeres if they raise a disabled child
B．mothers don't know how to handle stress effectively
C．some women were asked to fill out a questionnaire about educating children
D．mothers' positive attitudes are the key to managing their stress
5．The best title for the passage would be “________”．
A．Eat better, live better
B．Feel better, live longer
C．Less stress, fewer diseases
D．Smoke more, age sooner
(二)
【要点综述】 本文是一篇调查报告，叙述了生活方式对健康的重要性。
1．A　细节理解题。依据文章第一段“When people eat more healthfully，exercise，quit smoking，and manage stress better…”可知答案。
2．C　词义猜想题。依据前文信息“YOUR FACE receives more blood flow…”可知，glow 在文中的意思为“脸色红润”。故选择C项。
3．C　推理推断题。依据文章第三段“Smoking accelerates aging because nicotine causes your arteries(动脉) to narrow down…”可知，尼古丁使动脉变窄。故C项错误。
4．D　推理推断题。依据文章倒数其次段第一句话以及后面的调查结果可知，母亲们对压力的态度对成功应付压力起着重要的作用。故D项正确。
5．B　主旨大意题。综合文章其次至五段可以看出，当心情好时，新的神经细胞不断生长、动脉变宽、基因转变、染色体端粒变长，因此人的寿命也会相应地变长，所以选择B，其他选项都是片面的。

When it is Tom’s turn for a cut, Mr. Smith places a wooden board covered with a piece of red leather across the arms of the chair, so that the barber doesn’t have to bend to cut the boy’s hair.

When Mr. Smith has 14 , Tom hops down from the seat. 15 , he sees his own thick, 16 hair mixed among the browns, greys and blacks of the men who have sat in the chair before him. For a moment he wants to reach down and 17 the broken blonde hair, to 18 them from the others, but he does not have time.
They reach the pavement outside the shop. “I tell you what, boy, let’s get some fish and chips to take home, 19 your mum from cooking tea,” says Tom’s dad.
