Television can be a wonderful learning tool. Thirty-odd years ago, "Sesame Street," "The Electric Company" and "Mr. Rogers’ Neighbourhood" helped my sons learn to read, count, socialize and cope with feelings. Nature programs on public television taught them an enormous respect for the world at large and the creatures within it.
Not until the boys were old enough to understand how commercials tried to promote consumption were they allowed to watch sports programs on commercial television. The basic motto of the household was, "When it’s light out, you’re out"—that is, playing outdoors.
With little TV, they were two lean, strong, athletic children who grew up in a home without junk food, did not pester their parents to buy things they saw advertised, never smoked or drank alcohol and knew more about wildlife than the leader of a trip to Kenya.
Unfortunately, our experience with television is rarely duplicated these days. Sitting passively in front of the tube for hours is taking its toll on the bodies and minds of the nation’s children. Studies have documented unhealthy effects on weight, attention span, reading skills and socialization among children who spend hours a day watching television or playing video games.
The average young child in this country watches about four hours of television a day and each year sees tens of thousands of commercials, often for high-fat, high-sugar or high-salt snacks and foods; thousands of episodes of violence; and countless instances of alcohol use and inappropriate sexual activity. By the time American children finish high school, they have spent nearly twice as many hours in front of the television set as in the classroom.
Which statement is CORRECT according to the passage?
选项
A、In the past TV programs had positive effects on children’s socialization.
B、The author hasn’t many likes or dislikes of TV itself.
C、Now the author’s attitude towards TV is worried.
D、TV stations should to a large extent be responsible for the present troubled condition concerned.
答案
B
解析
纵观全文,作者虽然为目前孩子看电视引起的负面影响担忧,但是,正如文章开头所述,电视本身可以是很好的学习工具或途径。并且,作者强调了自己对孩子的要求与现在家长的态度形成对比。因此,可以判断,作者对电视本身并没有表现出任何好恶。
