The video wave has swept too far. It bears a large responsibility for the declining interest in reading among the young. If we don’t do something to stem the tide, the reading impulse will soon be drowned.
【B1】______
Everyone, psychologists tell us, needs stories. Cavemen told them round their fires. Mythologies and folk stories have been passed between generations for centuries. Most of us are literate and in theory our fictional needs could be satisfied by reading.
【B2】______ Today’s generation of average and below average school children rely on video, television and film. While many of these offerings may be harmless in themselves, they do nothing to build up reading skills. They are replacing the consolidatory work which turns halting mechanical reading into the real thing. If some of the hours children spend watching television were devoted to reading, the population would be better educated.
【B3】______Someone else has made all the decisions about casting, setting, clothing, facial expressions, tone and so on. Reading a story is an active partnership between the writer and the reader. Ideas are sketched and the mind of the reader creates the rest.
【B4】______It is because children whose reading is hesitant cannot readily identify and enjoy the plot. Watching something is easier. This is leading to a generation whose mental processes are too stultified. The problem is that many children read very slowly. I worry, for instance, about children who carry the same 100-word book about with them for a fortnight. I meet them daily. They conscientiously decode a page or two in a class and about the same again for homework. It is hardly surprising that such children then declare that they find reading boring and prefer to watch television. Their difficulty is not reading the words—it is interpreting them. They need to be able to read fast enough to feed the mind’s hunger for a story.
【B5】______ Parents need to be convinced of the importance of preventing their children from wasting their hours on inert viewing. Without television the child is likely to turn to books for entertainment.
I used to think that filmed versions of enjoyable books were a spur to reading. I have changed my mind. Visual images drown imagination. A dramatization, seen once, can destroy your reading for ever. Dramatized fiction is the literary equivalent of empty calories. It replaces the appetite for real food. Children must have a nutritionally balanced reading diet.

选项
答案
G
解析
根据横线处前文的意思,孩子们阅读纸质小说有困难,是因为他们没办法快速理解阅读到的文字。横线处后文的意思是,父母们应知晓阅读的重要性,防止孩子们将时间浪费在怠惰的看电视上面。因此,横线处的句子属于过渡句。选G项。
