I found in my baby' s behaviour a metaphor (暗喻) for 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 , that 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 it？ Let them watch it all they want!
The author brought a TV set into his son's room to _______.
A．make his son stop crying
B．spend the night watching TV
C．it to his son
D．make his son fall asleep as soon as possible

听力原文：W: No luck then, John？
M: I'm afraid not, ma'am. Not yet, anyhow. We're still checking on stolen cars.
W: Mm.
M: Where do you think he'll head for, ma' am？
W: Well, he definitely won't try to leave the country yet. He may try to get a passport, and he'll certainly need clothes and money. He'll probably get in touch with Cornfield for those, so I expect he'll make for Birmingham.
M: Right. I'll put some men on the house.
W: Yes, do that. Mind you, I doubt if he'll show up there in person. Hammond's no fool, you know. I should think he'll probably use a telephone.
M: What about his wife？
W: Mm. I shouldn't think he'll go anywhere near her—though he might get her to join him after he's left the country. And when he does leave, he probably won't use a major airport, either. So you'd better notify the coastguard, and keep an eye on the private airfields.
M: Right, ma' am. I'd better get his description circulated.
W: Yes. He may change his appearance, of course. And John--be careful. He could be armed. And if I know Hammond, he certainly won't give himself up without a fight.
Question:19. According to the woman, where might the wanted person first go？
20.How will the wanted man probably get in touch with Cornfield according to the women？
21.What will the wanted man deal with his wife？
22.According to the police, how will the wanted man try to leave the country？
(23)
A．The country.
B．Another country.
C．Cornfield.
D．Birmingham.

As prices and building costs keep rising, the "do-it-yourself"(DIY) trend(趋势)in the U.S. continues to grow.
"We needed furniture(家具)for our living room," says John Ross, "and we just didn't have enough money to buy it. So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs. "John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a 2-week course for ＄ 280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.
Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for ＄ 420. "I was deeply upset about it. Now I've finished a car repair course, I should be able to fix the car by myself."
John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living. If you want to become a "do- it-yourself", you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don't have time to take a course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.
We can learn from the text that many married people ______.
A．find it hard to pay for what they need
B．have to learn to make their own furniture
C．take DIY courses run by the government
D．seldom go to a department store to buy things

It doesn't happen very often, but it does happen in the capital city of the United States. It is likely to happen in the near-deserted city center at night, in a parking lot in the shadow of a federal building. It is more likely to happen in one of the grey fringe areas between the poor ghettos and the residential areas. It could happen any time in the ghetto itself where people don't walk at night; more American city crime and most of Washington's is by poor against poor. It seldom happens in the tree-lined streets of north-west Washington.
It did happen last week. Senator John Stennis was the victim of a classic Washington street crime. He happened to be an important politician, but that is not why he was shot. What happened to him could happen to any of us.
Senator Stennis, who was 71, got out of his white Buick Electra at 7:40 p. m. ,outside his home at 3609 Cumberland Street. Two youths said, "Get me up." He put up no resistance. He handed over his wallet containing credit cards, driving license, and the like, a gold watch and the only money he had in his pockets—twenty five cents. The youths said either, "Now we're going to shoot you anyway," or "We ought to shoot you anyway." Anyway they did. One bullet hit him in the fleshy part of the thigh, struck the bone, and disintegrated. The other entered his chest just below the breast pocket of his suit. It narrowly missed his heart.
Amazingly he made it across a ten-foot sidewalk, up four steps, along twenty more feet of concrete pathway, three more steps and a six-foot landing, His wife met him at the door, and saw two men running. The Senator told her to call the police and an ambulance.
Senator Stennis was a powerful political figure, but it is unlikely that the two young knew who he was. More likely his offense was that he had no more cash than a quarter—not enough for a fix, not enough for two cups of coffee. One is warned always not to carry money on the streets of Washington.
Senator Stennis was ______ when he was shot.
A．going to work
B．coming home from work
C．going out for the evening
D．coming home from a party

A．worked so hard almost forgot everything
B．was always deep in thought
C．didn't think about anything for himself
D．was so forgetful
