The data collected by HNTV shows that nearly twothirds of their audience are female, among whom 36% are aged from 25 to can imagine such a scene that one evening a young mother is watching the show with her young children, while her husband is still at work or trapped in socializing, or maybe is just playing puter games in the bedroom. The story of a child without the pany of father is still going on. In fact, it is sometimes the same to mothers. In a modern family, it is often the old who take the responsibility of raising a child. The participation of mother in the children’s education is also very low. It is just this kind of confusion where the parents have gone in the modern family education, and where the parents will guide their children to go that “Where are we going, Dad?” shows us. If a child wants to grow up healthily and safely into a modern citizen with independent personality and free spirit, it is very important for him or her to follow the parents who serve as their first teacher. Maybe this is the real reason why such kind of TV programs could get hot. The truth is that children will go where their parents go。) 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。 There is distinction between reading for information and reading for understanding. 36 The first sense is the one in which we read newspapers, magazines, or anything else. 37 Such materials may increase our store of information, but they cannot improve our understanding. And clearly we don’t have any difficulty in gaining the new information, for our understanding was equal to them before we started. Otherwise, we would have felt the shock of puzzlement. The second sense is the one in which we read something that at first we do not pletely understand. Here the thing to be read is at the first sight better or higher than the reader. The writer is municating something that can increase the reader’s understanding. 38_Otherwise one person could never learn from another. Here “l(fā)earning” means understanding more, not remembering more information. What are the conditions in this kind of reading? First, there is inequality in understanding39_ Besides, his book must convey something he possesses and his potential readers lack. Second, the reader must be able to overe this inequality in some degree. And he should always try to reach the same level of understanding with the writer. If the equality is approached, success of munication is achieved. 40_It is the least demanding and requires the least amount of effort. Everyone who knows how to read can read for entertainment if he wants to. In fact, any book that can be read for understanding or information can probably be read for entertainment as well. A. Thus, we can employ the word “reading” in two distinct senses. B. Such munication between unequals must be possible. C. We can get access to the content of those materials easily. D. The writer must be “superior” to the reader in understanding. E. The writer should have a better municating skill. F. Besides gaining information and understanding, there’s another goal of reading—entertainment. G. Reading for entertainment is capable of increasing our understanding for information.
