[答案]

电视机丰富了人们的生活,同时也将人们禁锢在家里,减少了户外活动。一家网络组织创办的“关闭电视周”活动至今已走过十几个年头了,它使人们明白除了看电视,我们还有许多健康的生活方式。

1.D。考查动名词。从文章大意可知是希望人们有健康的生活方式,参加一些活动(第二段),因此选playing outside最合适。

2.A。考查动词短语辨析。上文提出了一个问题,所以用find out“发现,找到(答案)”,其他选项均不符合文意。

3.B。考查词组搭配leave...off“关掉”。

4.C。考查介词搭配。由后文的to可知这里只能填from。

5.C。考查词组搭配。这两句话说的是参与这个活动的人数的变化,因此这里是“起初,一开始”,用in the beginning。

6.C。考查词义辨析。这句话是对前一句话的补充说明,根据“people in every state in America and in more than 12 other countries”可知是对所有参与者的一个说明,所以用including“包括”。

7.C。进一步陈述组织者的目的。

8.C。组织者的目的就是希望人们有健康的生活方式,所以用turn on life“点亮生活”,生动、形象地阐明了中心。

9.B。根据空后的in school可知是针对学生来说的,因此用kids。

10.D。根据上下文提供的数据可知,大多数孩子与在学校时相比,看电视的时间更多。

11.D。这里表示“看电视过多”。

12.D。考查上下文推理。上下文之间是因果关系,as a result“结果,因此”。

13.A。考查上下文推理。根据上文的grow fat可推知,这里应该是overweight“超重的”。overeaten“吃得过多”是导致肥胖的一个方面。overgrown“成长过快的”,overseen“监督”,都不符合文意。

14.A。考查上下文推理。从逻辑上看首先可排除result from“由于;因为”,keep away“不接触”;再根据后面的“too little exercise, and violence”,从搭配上排除develops。

15.B。根据中心思想,Vespe认为从道理上说这样做“应该是”健康生活的一部分。

16.B。从下文来看Vespe是作为一个电视观众,即本次活动的参与者来谈自己的体会,而不是一个组织者,因此用taking part in。participate后面要加in。

17.C。考查名词短语every time引导的时间状语从句。主句为现在进行时,因此用every time“每次”最合适。而every day后面要加when; this time“这次”,不符合文意。

18.C。考查固定搭配。make a difference“产生影响”。

19.A。考查名词与动词搭配。下文不是列举data“数据”具体是多少,所以不能用says或reads,应该用shows“显示、说明”。

20.D。根据上下文考查词义。此处是在63 percent的基础上的上升,因此用up from。
