阅读理解The whole generations are growing up addicted to the telly (television). Food is left uneaten, homework undone and sleep is lost. The telly is universal pacifier（抚慰者）.It is now standard practice for mother to keep the children quiet by putting them in the living-room and turning on the set.It doesn’t matter that the children will watch rubbishy mercials or violence－so long as they are quiet.There is little limit to the amount of creative talent available in the world. Television consumes vast quantities of creative work. That is why most of programs are bad:  it is impossible to keep pace with the demand and maintain high standards as well. When millions watch the same programs,  the whole world bees a village, and society is reduced to the conditions which obtain in preliterate（无文字的）munities. We bee pletely dependent on the two most primitive media of munication: pictures and the spoken word. Television encourages passive enjoyment. We bee content with secondhand experiences. It is so easy to sit in our armchairs watching others working. Little by little, television cuts us off from the real world. We got so lazy; we choose to spend a fine day in semi-darkness, glued to our sets, rather than go out into the world itself. Television may be a splendid medium of munication, but it prevents us from municating with each other. We only bee aware how totally irrelevant television is to real living when we spend a holiday by the sea or in the mountain, far away from civilization. In quiet, natural surroundings, we quickly discover how little we miss the repetitive oppression of King Telly.1.According to this passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?A.We used to have hobbies and go to theaters and sporting events.B.We have a leisurely evening meal and exchange the news when we watch TV.C.We quickly finish our meals so as to be in time for TV programs.D.We are usually silent and attentive in front of TV.2.The main idea of the second paragraph is to show that_____.A.children are very noisyB.TV is full of rubbishy mercials or violenceC.television disturbs our sleepD.the whole generations are fascinated with TV3.Which is the best title for this passage?A.Television Encourages Passive EnjoymentB.Television Is Doing Irreparable（不能挽回的）harmC.Television Is a Universal PacifierD.We Can't Live Without TV4.This passage is an article of_____.A.narrationB.descriptionC.criticismD.argumentation
