One hot night last July, when our new baby wouldn’t or couldn’t sleep, I tried everything I could think of: a warm bottle, songs gentle rocking. Nothing would settle him. Guessing that I had a long night ahead of me, I brought a portable TV into his room, figuring that watching the late movie was as good a way as any to kill of the hours till dawn. To my surprise, as soon as the TV lit up, the baby quieted right down, and his little eyes focused brightly on the tube. Not to waste an opportunity for sleep, I then tiptoed out of the room, leaving him to watch the actors celebrate John Bellushi’s forty-fifth birthday.
My wife and I heard none of the baby that night, and the next morning when I went into his room, I found him still watching TV himself.
I found in my baby’s behavior a symbol of the new generation. My wife and I had given him some books to examine, but he merely spit upon them. When we read to him, he did not feel comfortable. And so it is in the schools. We find that our students don’t read and they look down upon reading and scold those of us who teach it. All they want to do is watch TV. After this experience with the baby, however, I have reached a conclusion: “Let them watch it!” If television is that much more attractive to children than books, why should we fight about it? Let them watch it all they want!

A.To make his son keep quiet.   B.To spend the night by watching TV programs.
C.In order not to let his son feel lonely.D.To make his son go to sleep as soon as possible.
【小题2】The baby’s reaction to the TV program was _______ for the writer.  
A.unexpected B.encouragingC.exciting D.calm
【小题3】From this passage we know that the author is probably           .
A.a doctorB.a reporterC.an editorD.a teacher
【小题4】According to the passage, which is true of the school children?
A.They prefer reading to watching TV.   
B.They like watching TV after school.
C.They would rather watch TV than read books.
D.They like their teachers who teach them reading.

One very cold and rainy night in the winter of 2012, my husband and I were in a fast food restaurant. We were about to begin our meal     a man walked in. He was completely       from the rain and went into the men's room.

I watched him go by, then I said to my husband, "That man must have had nothing to eat in a long time." When the man came out of the men's room, he just        himself in a chair, not going anywhere near the food counter. I       that he didn't have any money for food and        wanted to dry off for a while.
