20、ompanies are working on developing cars and trucks that dont need a driver in the drivers seat.

21、ctivity. So roughly one of every 15 workers in the country is employed in the trucking business. We could be talking about millions of jobs disappearing in the early 2020s.

22、dy done this to taxi drivers, and other technology companies are doing it to a wide range of jobs.

27、C Daniel Anderson, a famous psychologist, believes its important to distinguish televisions influences on children from those of the family. We tend to blame TV, he says, for problems it doesnt really cause, overlooking our own roles in shaping childrens minds.One traditional belief about television

28、 is that it reduces a childs ability to think and to understand the world. While watching TV, children do not merely absorb words and images (影像). Instead, they learn both explicit( 明显的) and hidden meanings from what they see. Actually, children learn early the psychology of characters in TV shows.

29、Furthermore, as many teachers agree, children understand far more when parents watch TV with them, explaining new words and ideas. Yet, most parents use an educational program as a chance to park their kids in front of the set and do something in another room.Another argument against television is t

30、hat it replaces reading as a form of entertainment. But according to Anderson, the amount of time spent watching television is not related to reading ability. TV doesnt take the place of reading for most children; it takes the place of similar sorts of recreation, such as listening to the radio and

31、playing sports. Things like parents educational background have a stronger influence on a childs reading. “A childs reading ability is best predicted by how much a parent reads.” Anderson says.Traditional wisdom also has it that heavy television-watching lowers IQ (智商) scores and affects school perf

32、ormance. But here, too, Anderson notes that no studies have proved it. In fact, research suggests that its the other way around. “If youre smart young, youll watch less TV when youre older,” Anderson says. Yet, people of lower IQ tend to be lifelong television viewers.For years researchers have atte

33、mpted to show that television is dangerous to children. However, by showing that television promotes none of the dangerous effects as conventionally believed, Anderson suggests that television cannot be condemned without considering other influences.28. By watching TV, children learn _. A. images th

34、rough words B. more than explicit meanings C. more about images than words D. little about peoples psychology29. Which of the following is most related to childrens reading ability? A. Radio-listening B. Television-watching C. Parents reading list D. Parents educational background30. Anderson believ

35、ed that _. A. the more a child watches TV, the smarter he is B. the younger a child is, the more he watches TV C. the smarter a child is, the less likely he gets addicted to TV D. the less a child watches TV, the better he performs at school31. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To advise o

36、n the educational use of TV. B. To describe TVs harmful effects on children. C. To explain traditional views on TV influences. D. To present Andersons unconventional ideas.D Does Fame Drive You Crazy？Although being famous might sound like a dream come true，todays stars，feeling like zoo animals，face

38、signature! According to psychologist Christina Villarreal，celebrities-famous people-worry constantly about their public appearanceEventually，they start to lose track of who they really are，seeing themselves the way their fans imagine them，not as the people they were before everyone knew their namesO

41、erstars cannot move about without worrying about photographers with modern camerasWhen they say something silly or do something ridiculous，there is always the Internet to spread the news in minutes and keep their story alive forever If fame is so troublesome，why arent all celebrities running away fr

42、om it？The answer is there are still ways to deal with itSome stars stay calm by surrounding themselves with trusted friends and family or by escaping to remote places away from big citiesThey focus not on how famous they are but on what they love to do or whatever made them famous in the first place
