Television now plays such an important part in so many people’s lives that it is essential for us to try to decide whether it is a blessing or a curse. Obviously television has both advantages and disadvantages. But do the former outweigh the latter? In the first place, television is not only a convenient source of entertainment, but also a comparatively cheap one. They just sit comfortably at home and enjoy endless series of programs rather than to go out in search of amusement elsewhere. Some people, however, maintain that this is precisely where the danger lies. The television viewer needs to do nothing. He is completely passive and has everything presented to him without any effort on his part. Secondly, television keeps one informed about current events, allows one to follow the latest developments in science and politics. Yet here again there is a danger. The television screen itself has a terrible, almost physical fascination for us. We get so used to looking at its movements, so dependent on its pictures that it begins to dominate our Eves. There are many other arguments for and against television. The poor quality of its program is often criticized. But it is undoubtedly a great comfort to many lonely elderly people. And does it corrupt or instruct our children?[17]I think we must realize that television in itself is neither good nor bad.[18]It is the uses to which it is put that determine its value to society.
16. What is NOT mentioned as the disadvantages of TV?
17. What is the speaker’s opinion of television?
18. What determines the value of television to society?
选项
A、Watching TV can cause physical diseases.
B、TV places the viewer in a completely passive position.
C、People are too dependent on TV.
D、The quality of some TV programs is poor.
答案
A
解析
本文分析电视的利弊,它带来益处的同时也有潜在的弊端。文章分别提到,观看电视是被动接受的行为(即B),它使人产生依赖性(即C),有些电视节目质量太差(即D)。未提到的弊端是A,故选A。此外,A“看电视会导致生理疾病”的说法闻所未闻。这是对原文中almost physical fascination“几乎有生理上的迷恋”的曲解。换言之,有些选项可据常识加以判断。
