1.[A]事实细节题。本题考查对比处。根据第1段中的morelikely…than可知选项A正确,选项B可由此排除。选项C和D虽在文中有提到,但作者并无讨论它们是否危及孩子的生命。
2.[D]主旨大意题。文章第1和第2段提出话题:小孩接触太多暴力。第3段和第4段讨论小孩遇到的严重暴力,如murder,muggings等,为主题服务,因此本段应支持文章开头提出的话题。本段说明的是现实生活中的暴力,而非电视上的,故选项A不对,选项B和C都只是对本段中某个现象的描述。
3.[B]推理判断题。本题考査列举处。选项B是对第5段倒数第2句中becomelesssensitivetothepainandsufferingofothers的近义替换,因此正确。选项A中的isolated并不等同于文中的fearful,也不是因为害怕世界必然带来的结果。选项C中的only过于绝对,文中只说away。选项D拼凑了原句中的某些词语,但文中并无此意。
4.[B]主旨大意题。本文结构可分为四部分:第1段和第2段总起,指出论题;第二部分讨论murder等严重暴力;第三部分即第5段讨论TVviolence;第四部分即最后一段讨论学校里的体罚,也就是schoolviolence。因此只有选项B没有在文中讨论。
5.[C]观点态度题。根据最后一段,特别是最后一句,可以推断作者认为体罚不起作用,并对学生身心产生有害的影响,由此可见,作者不认同体罚,因此选项A和D不正确。选项B中的illegal与文中说法相反,因此也不正确。
