TV Games Shows
One of the most fascinating things about television is the size of the audience.A novel can be on the best sellers list with a sale of fewer than 100,000 .copies,but a popular TV show might have 70 million TV viewers.TV can make anything or anyone well-known overnight.
This is the principle behind quiz or game shows,which put ordinary people on TV to play a game for the prizes and money.A quiz show can make anyone a star,and it can give away thou-sands of dollars just for fun.But all of this money can create problems.For instance,in the 1950s, quiz shows were very popular in the US and almost everyone watched them. Charles Van Doren, an English instructor,became rich and famous after winning money on several shows.He even had a career as a television personality.But one of the losers proved that Charles Van Doren was cheat-ing. It turned out that the show's producers,who were pulling the strings,gave the answers to the most popular contestants beforehand. Why?Because if the audience didn't like the person who won the game,they turned the show off. Based on his story,a movie under the title Quiz Show is on 40 years later.
Charles Van Doren is no longer involved with TV.But game shows are still here,though they aren't taken as seriously. In fact,some of them try to be as ridiculous as possible.There are shows that send strangers on vacation trips together,or that try to cause newly-married couples to fight on TV,or that punish losers by humiliating them.The entertainment now is to see what people will do just to be on TV.People still win money,but the real prize is to be in front of an audience of mil-lions.

参考答案
参考解析
解析：答案查找的线索词：world-famous overnight（一夜成名）和beggar（乞丐）。在第一段的最后一句中找到含有world-famous overnight的相关句。原句说，电视可让anything （任何事）和anyone（任何人）一夜成名，当然包括beggar,所以这句话正确。
该句是说“问答节目背后的原则是为了让普通人参加赢取奖品和奖金的电视节目”，答案查找的线索词：ordinary people（普通人）。在第二段的第-句中找到含有ordi-nary people的相关句。原句的结构与问题句的结构有所不同：原句中有代词“this"，说 “这就是猜谜节目背后的原则”，而代词往往指代前-句的内容，可见“TV can make an-ything or anyone well-known overnight”才是猜谜节目背后的原则。所以该句说法错误。
答案查找的线索词：provide（提供）或TV stars and large companies（电视明星和大公司）。查找完全文也没发现这些线索词，可见该问题并没在原文中提到，所以答案为C 项。
该问题句说“一位电视名人，Charles Van Doren，被证明通过说服节目制作人事先给他答案来进行欺骗”。答案查找的线索词：Charles Van Doren（人名）和cheating（欺骗）。从第二段的第四行开始发现含有Charles Van Doren的相关句，再找另一线索词：cheat-ing，于是又进-步在该段找到直接相关行（7-10行）。原文是说，为了吸引观众，节目制作人主动把答案事先告诉Charles Van Doren。所以该句说法错误。
该问题句说“大量电视节目中的欺骗丑闻40年以后才在名为《Quiz Show》的电影中被曝光。”答案查找的线索词：40 years和Quiz Show．从第二段的最后一句找到含有这两个线索词的直接相关句。发现原文并不是说“40年后该电影才曝光这一丑闻”。原句只是说“名为《Quiz Show》的电影在40年后上映”，所以该句说法错误。
答案查找的线索词：nowadays（现在）或seriously（严肃地）。在第三段的第二句中可以找到含有seriously的相关句。原句说“这种节目仍然在电视上播放，但人们对它的态度不再像从前那样认真”，问题句的意思与之相符，所以正确。
答案查找的线索词：get money from the shows（从节目中得到钱）。在第三段的最后一句中找到与“get money from the shows”语义相近的词“win money"。原句说人们仍然可以赢得钱，所以问题句的意思与原句不符。
该句是说“问答节目背后的原则是为了让普通人参加赢取奖品和奖金的电视节目”，答案查找的线索词：ordinary people（普通人）。在第二段的第-句中找到含有ordi-nary people的相关句。原句的结构与问题句的结构有所不同：原句中有代词“this"，说 “这就是猜谜节目背后的原则”，而代词往往指代前-句的内容，可见“TV can make an-ything or anyone well-known overnight”才是猜谜节目背后的原则。所以该句说法错误。

C Too much TV-watching can harm childrens ability to learn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children.One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedrooms TVs.A second study, looking at nearly 1,000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among 26-year-olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood. But the results dont prove that TV is the cause and dont rule out that already poorly motivated youngsters(年轻人)may watch lots of TV.Their study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages 5 and 15. Those with college degrees had watched an average of less than two hours of TV per weeknight during childhood, compared with an average of more than 2 hours for those who had no education beyond high school.In the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest, while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest.While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to accumulating findings that children shouldnt have TVs in their bedrooms.第64题：According to the California study, the low-scoring group might____________.A. have watched a lot of TVB. not be interested in mathC. be unable to go to collegeD. have had computers in their bedrooms

In recent years, publishers, directors and TV producers have taken a keen interest in popularonline novels, thanks to their originality and solid fan base.
Genre is an important factor. According to a survey by Chinese online literature platformCloudary, of t00 online novels whose copyrights were sold by Cloudary for adaption in 2012,modern city novels, historical romances and war stories were the most popular.
Online author Liu Chenfeng's best-known novel A Clear Midsummer Night is a love story. Itattracted more than 30 million Web hits and won the top prize in the annual competition forChinese romance novels in 2012. A TV adaption of the book, starred by Yang Mi and Liu Kaiwei,was a huge hit when broadcast in 2013. The success of the TV adaption has brought Liu greaterpopularity and more confidence in her writing. "It's as if a feast prepared by me has beenappreciated by numerous diners, which is a great encouragement." Liu says.
Literature websites, which are supreme headquarters collecting some outstanding works, haveplayed an important role in this trend. Major websites, such as Qidian.com and Hongxiu.com, whichare owned by Cloudary, have established special branches to help film and TV producers who arelooking for good stories and to deal with copyright licensing. Liu, who has entrusted the literaturewebsite Hongxiu.com to deal with her copyright licensing to TV producers, thinks it makes thingseasier for writers and allows them to focus more on their work.
However, many other writers have sought to work closely with film and TV producers and playan active role in the adaption process of their own works. The authors really know the essence oftheir works. To some extent, their working together may produce better films or TV series. Theauthors' unique understanding about the original works is valued by producers and directors.
Popular online writer Bao Jingjing worked with director Teng Huatao as the screenwriter forone of her online novels. The movie Love Is Not Blind, adapted from her story, became an instanthit in 2012.
Bao graduated from Beijing Film Acadetny with a degree in literature. Her background gaveher extra weight in winning the director's trust. The experience has led Bao on a new career path.She won the award for best adapted screenplay at the d9th Golden Horse Awards in Taiwan in 2012.
Since then, Bao has adapted another of her writings into a film and a TV series, both directedby Teng. "I am lucky. Now I have a job that I really enjoy," Bao says. While writing novels online,Bao adds that she will consider the possibility of her works being adapted into films or TV, and avoids sentences that might be difficult for actors.

查看材料
A．To provide unique understanding about the original works.
B．To supervise the work done by film and TV producers.

TV Games ShowsOne of the most fascinating things about television is the size of the audience.A novel can be on the best sellers list with a sale of fewer than 100,000 .copies,but a popular TV show might have 70 million TV viewers.TV can make anything or anyone well-known overnight.This is the principle behind quiz or game shows,which put ordinary people on TV to play a game for the prizes and money.A quiz show can make anyone a star,and it can give away thou-sands of dollars just for fun.But all of this money can create problems.For instance,in the 1950s, quiz shows were very popular in the US and almost everyone watched them. Charles Van Doren, an English instructor,became rich and famous after winning money on several shows.He even had a career as a television personality.But one of the losers proved that Charles Van Doren was cheat-ing. It turned out that the show's producers,who were pulling the strings,gave the answers to the most popular contestants beforehand. Why?Because if the audience didn't like the person who won the game,they turned the show off. Based on his story,a movie under the title Quiz Show is on 40 years later.Charles Van Doren is no longer involved with TV.But game shows are still here,though they aren't taken as seriously. In fact,some of them try to be as ridiculous as possible.There are shows that send strangers on vacation trips together,or that try to cause newly-married couples to fight on TV,or that punish losers by humiliating them.The entertainment now is to see what people will do just to be on TV.People still win money,but the real prize is to be in front of an audience of mil-lions. TV can make a beggar world-famous overnight.A:.RightB: WrongC: Not mentioned

单选题Passage1Children who spend more than two hours a day at a computer or watching television are more likely than others to have mental problems，scientists say.Researchers found that 11-year-olds who spent several hours in front of a screen each day did worse on mental health tests，no matter how much physical exercise they got. The University of Bristol study，published in Pediatrics，involved more than 1，000 children aged about 10.They also had the kids fill out questionnaires designed to gauge the kids' emotional well-being and behavior.The questionnaires contained 20 questions covering five sections-emotional difficulties，conduct problems，hyperactivity or inattention，friendships and peer groups and problems relating to friends and peer groups.The study found no direct evidence that sitting in front of a screen actually causes mental health problems. Instead，it suggests that children with difficulties，such as extreme shyness，are more likely to choose TV or computer games than sociable activities. In the study，children were asked whether they agreed，disagreed or somewhat agree with a list of statements，including，"I generally play alone or keep to myself" and，"I am often unhappy or tearful".They were also asked how much exercise they took and how long they spent at a TV or computer screen.According to the study，children who spent more than two hours a day at a screen had a 60% higher risk of mental problems than children who spent fewer viewing hours. The risk was only slightly higher in children who did little or no exercise."Physical activity is good for health in many ways，but it can't make up for long hours of screen viewing. Parents should consider limiting their children's screen viewing to no more than 2 hours a day，”said the study organizer，Angie Page.Previous studies have raised concerns that watching too much television can affect children's behavior in later life. A Canadian study found that those who watched most TV as young children performed worse at school, ate more junk food and had more trouble concentrating.How can children improve mental health according to the passage？A
By limiting TV and computer use to less than two hours a day.B
By getting more physical exercise.C
By playing more educational computer games.D
By going to bed earlier each night.
