Researchers found that compared with teens who spent much of their free time in front of TV sets, those who were physically active often had higher self-respect, better grades and were less likely to have risky behavior like taking drugs, smoking, or drinking．The findings, based on a national survey of nearly 12,000 middle and high school students, were published in a journal．

       "Across the board, children who engaged in any kind of activity were belier off than kids who watched a lot of TV," said study co author professor Penny Gordon Larsen of the University of North Carolina．

       Other studies have linked certain content of television programs, such as violence and sex, to children's behavior．But beyond this issue, Gordon-Larsen said that kids who spend hours watching TV "miss opportunities" to develop skills, learn teamwork and have other experiences that their more active peers benefit from．

       That doesn't mean, however, that kids have to be on the football team． The study found that some activities like skating and skateboarding——which adults sometimes frown upon——were also related to better self respect and less risk taking．

       That skaters were better behaved than TV watchers might come as a surprise to some adults who consider these teens to be bad, according to Gordon-Larsen．Skateboarding is forbidden in many public areas, and some communities oppose building skating parks．But if kids who like to skate have nowhere to do it, "it's a shame," said Gordon-Larsen．

       Not only should parents encourage their kids to engage iii the physical activities they enjoy, she said, but schools and communities should also do more to create opportunities for children to be active．

1.From the passage we know that          .

       A．physically active kids get into less trouble

       A．offer some information to teachers and parents

       B．persuade kids not to watch a lot of TV

       C．urge the public to help children be active

       D．show the author's concern about children's growth

4.What does the underlined sentence "which adults sometimes frown upon" in the 4th paragraph mean?

       A．Some adults don't understand the sports．

       B．Some adults are impatient with kids．

       C．Adults consider it dangerous to go skating or skateboarding.

       D．Some adults think them related to bad behaviors.

5.It can be inferred from the passage that          .

Jerome, aged 32, majored in computer science when he was at university. He has worked in a software company for six years and is an expert at both software and hardware. He got a driver’s license when he was eighteen years old.

We know the famous ones — the Thomas Edisons and the Alexander Graham Bells— but what about the less famous inventors? What about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper(雨刮器)？Shouldn’ t we know who they are?

   Joan McLean thinks so. In fact, McLean, a professor of physics at Mountain University in Range, feels so strongly about this matter that she’ s developed a course on the topic. In addition to learning “who” invented “what”， however, McLean also likes her students to learn the answers to the “why”and“how”questions. According to McLean，“When students learn the answers to these questions, they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try.”

Her students agree. One young man with a patent for an unbreakable umbrella is walking proof of McLean’ s statement.“If I had not heard the story of the windshield wiper’ s invention，”said Tommy Lee, a senior physics major，“I never would have dreamed of turning my bad experience during a rainstorm into something so constructive.” Lee is currently negotiating to sell his patent to an umbrella producer.

So, just what is the story behind the windshield wiper? Well, Mary Anderson came up with the idea in 1902 after a visit to New York City. The day was cold and stormy，but Anderson still wanted to see the sights, so she jumped aboard a streetcar. Noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the windshield, she found herself wondering why there couldn’ t be a built-in device for cleaning the window. Still wondering about this when she returned home to Birmingham，Alabama. Anderson started drafting out solutions. One of her ideas, a lever(操作杆) on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside, became the first windshield wiper.

Today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations. It’ s hard to imagine driving without Garrett A. Morgan’ s traffic light. It’ s equally impossible to picture a world without Katherine J. Blodgett’ s innovation that makes glass invisible. Can you picture life without clear windows and eyeglasses?

1.By mentioning “traffic light”and “windshield wiper”， the author indicates that countless inventions are________.

   A．beneficial, because their inventors are famous

   B．beneficial, though their inventors are less famous

   A．not eventually accepted by the umbrella producer

   B．inspired by the story behind the windshield wiper

   C．due to his dream of being caught in a rainstorm

   D．not related to Professor Joan McLean’ s lectures

4.Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage?

   A．How to Help Students to Sell Their Inventions to Producers?

   B．How to Design a Built-in Device for Cleaning the Window?

   C．Shouldn’ t We Know Who Invented the Windshield Wiper?

   D．Shouldn’ t We Develop Invention Courses in Universities?
