"If you ask me television is unhealthy," I said to my roommate Walter, as I walked into the living room, "while you are sitting passively in front of the TV set, your muscles are turning to fat, your complexion is fading, and your eyesight is being ruined."
"Shh," Walter put his finger to his lips, "this is an intriguing murder mystery."
"Really?" I replied. "But you know, the brain is destroyed by TV viewing. Creativity is killed by that box, and people are kept from communicating with one another. From my point of view, TV is the cause of declining interest in school and the failure of our entire educational system."
"Ah ha, I kind of see your point." Walter said softly, "But see? The woman on the witness stand in this story is being questioned about a murder that was committed one hundred years ago."
Ignoring his enthusiastic description of the plot, I went on with my argument.
"As I see it," I explained, "not only are most TV programs badly written and produced, but viewers are also manipulated by the mass media. As far as I am concerned, TV watchers are cut off from reality, from nature, from other people, from life itself!" I was confident in my ability to persuade.
After a short silence, my roommate said: "Anyway, I’ve been planning to watch the football game. I am going to change the channel."
"Don’t touch that dial!" I shouted, "I wanted to find out how the mystery turns out!"
I am not sure I got my point to cross.
Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
33. As the speaker walked into the living room, what was being shown on TV?
34. What does the speaker say about watching television?
35. What can we say about the speaker?
选项
A、He watches T.V. programs only selectively.
B、He doesn’t like watching sports programs.
C、He can’t resist the temptation of T.V. either.
D、He is not a man who can keep his promise.
答案
C
解析
短文中说话者向室友讲了一系列看电视的坏处,但当室友要换频道时,他却叫室友不要换,说他想知道故事的结局(I wanted to find out how the mystery turns out!),由此可推断出,the speaker也不能抵御电视的诱惑,故答案为[C]。本题需要进行推断才能得出答案。
