试题分析:句意:在不列颠的每个人都知道艾丽丝梦游仙境记的故事。第一个空缺少谓语动词,句子用一般现在时,主语Everyone为第三人称单数;第二个空动词短语能作定语修饰名词,根据call sb./sth. sth可知动词和所修饰词之间是被动关系,故用过去分词来表示。根据句意,应选B。

In UK, Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras are everywhere. They help the police solve crimes and keep the streets safe. But that’s not all they do. They also catch people doing very stupid or smart things.
One of the videos is of a British woman Mary Bale. She clearly doesn’t like cats. In 2010 she was caught on CCTV throwing one into a dustbin. The video shows Mary walking down a quiet street. All of a sudden, she notices Lola the cat jump onto a fence. Mary stops to pick up Lola and drops her into a large dustbin. Lola was saved fifteen hours later. And Mary was arrested for causing unnecessary suffering to an animal. She was fined (罚款) £250and was not allowed to own pets for five years.
Another video shows “Britain’s drunkest man”. He’s been at a party at London’s Savoy Hotel. And he’d obviously had a few too many glasses of beer. At about 2 a.m., he was kicked out for being too drunk. So, he decided to walk home. On the way, CCTV cameras filmed him falling down stairs and crossing the roads madly… A Savoy Hotel waiter said, “It’s amazing he didn’t hurt himself badly.”
Sometimes they also record smart events. Once a British band (乐队) The Get Out Clause didn’t have any money to make a music video. So, they came up with an unbelievable idea. They set up their instruments and played a song in front of eight CCTV cameras. And then, according to the English Freedom of Information Act (信息自由法) , they asked for a copy of all the footages (视频) , which they edited. The result is that a totally new music video was made, and it didn’t cost them a penny.

Television is good. You'd like to watch it all day and all night. But too much TV is a very bad thing, especially for kids. It may negatively affect their study and health.
Scientists have found that kids who watch too much TV may have more trouble learning to read than other kids. They may have worse language skills. Kids learn language skills best by reading, talking and playing with others. If they spend too much time watching TV, they'll have less time for those things. It may make it harder for them to get on well with others when they grow up.
Watching too much TV is also harmful for kid's health. It’s bad for the eyes. Kids don’t move much while watching TV. What’s more, they may eat a lot of food while watching TV. This can make them fat. We call people who watch too much TV “couch potatoes.”
Fighting on TV is a big problem for kids. An American child will watch a lot of fighting acts on TV every year. Young people are good at following others. Scientists say that those who watch a lot of fighting shows are more likely to fight.
So listen to the scientists. Watch TV for one or two hours a day at most or try to turn off your TV for a week. There are lots of fun things to do.(改编于《初中英语读本9上》)
