Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished s
31、tatements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C), and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.Trials are taking place in North America
32、and Europe to test an electronic device which will prevent children from watching unsuitable programs on television. The device, known as a V-chip (the “v” stands for violence), allows parents to control their television set so that programs which are unsuitable for children cannot be watched on a p
33、articular television.The V-chip works by using an electronic code. When a program is broadcast, the signal from the television transmitter carries a code, which indicates the level of sex and/or violence in a particular program. The V-chip inside the television then examines the code for each progra
34、m and blocks transmission of those programs which contain certain codes. Makers of the V-chip say that parents can be confident that their children will not be able to watch those programs which they decide are unsuitable. V-chip technology has attracted a lot of interest. President Clinton passed a
35、 law last year which will require all new televisions to be fitted with V-chips by 1998. And the European Parliament(欧洲议会) has included the V-chip in its new Directive on Broadcasting. But critics say that the system will not be fool-proof, and that children will find ways of getting around it. Ther
36、e are also concerns that foreign satellite television companies may not abide by the rules. Others say that if viewers come to rely on the V-chip, other controls on program content may start to be relaxed. 1. According to the passage, V-chip technology enables parents to _. A) turn off the televisio
37、n when they are not homeB) keep inappropriate TV programs away from their children C) test electronic devices that can take the place of the TV setD) control the amount of time that their children spend on watching TV2. What do we learn from the passage about the electronic code? A).It is a computer
38、 program built in a TV set to examine the V-chip.B) It contains information about the television transmitter. C) It is the signal that is sent out by the V-chip. D) It shows the level of sex and/or violence in a particular program 3. The word “they ” in Paragraph 4 refers to _. A) makers B) children
39、 C) parents D) programs4. We can conclude from the passage that _. A) TV sets sold in America after 1998 are required to have V-chips B) a law had been passed to prohibit sex and violence on TVC) President Clinton attracted a lot of interestD) the European Parliament decided to import the V-chip tec
40、hnology from USA5. Critics of the V-chip were concerned that _. A) children may not like the new technologyB) imported TV set may not have been equipped with V-chipsC) children may get addicted to the new technologyD) new problems may arise even if the V-chip worksQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the
41、following passage.It is estimated that some seven hundred million people are unable to read and write, and there are probably two hundred and fifty million more whose level of attain ist is so slight that it barely qualifies literacy (读写能力).Recently the attack on illiteracy has been stepped up. A wo
42、rld plan has been drawn up by a committee of UNESCO experts in Paris, as part of the UNESCO Nations Development Decade, and an international conference on the subject has also been held.
