32、e following passage. Some individuals and citizens groups have expressed concern about the level of violence in television programs, particularly in action-adventure series and cartoons. They argue that viewers, especially children, may learn to see violence as the only way to resolve conflicts. Ear
33、ly experimental researchers compared the play of children who had seen aggressive behavior on television with the play of a control group of children who had watched nonviolent programs. Concern was intensified by findings that indicated a higher level of aggressive play in the violent-television gr
34、oup. Other researchers attempted to determine whether violent programs simply stimulated higher energy levels in children or actually caused them to learn violent and antisocial behavior. The results of different studies conflicted. Some researchers claimed that televised violence actually had a pos
35、itive cathartic effect, allowing some viewers to release heightening tensions; these findings however, were not confirmed in further studies. Other scholars pointed out that both prosocial and. antisocial behavior can be learned from television. Social scientists find .it especially difficult to ass
36、ess accurately the subtle, cumulative (累积的) effects of vie-wing a broad variety of television programs throughout childhood. Distinguishing the possible effects of television from other influences at home and at school is also difficult. Current research suggests that moderately higher levels of ant
37、isocial behavior can be traced to television viewing, but further study needs to be done to confirm it. Because of the long-standing tradition in the U.S. of freedom of speech and of the press, the government would probably not attempt to directly limit or censor the appearance of violence on televi
38、sion. Among the networks and producers, pressure from concerned citizens continues to be balanced by the increasing popularity of high-energy action-adventure programs. (分数:10.00)(1).What is the passage mainly about? (分数:2.00)A.Violence in television programs.B.Levels of violence in action adventure
39、 series and cartoons.C.Educational programs for children.D.Researches on television programs.(2).Those researchers who believe violence on TV has a positive effect on viewers think that _. (分数:2.00)A.it teaches people not to use violence to resolve conflictsB.it stimulates higher energy levels in ch
40、ildrenC.it helps let out peoples undesirable emotionsD.it helps people to fight various social evils before them(3).A “prosocial“ behavior is one _. (分数:2.00)A.that is against the social, normB.that meets the expectation of the societyC.that a child shows in communication with peopleD.that can often
41、 be shaped by TV programs(4).Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? (分数:2.00)A.Television viewing leads naturally to antisocial behavior.B.Violence on television does not help shape violent behavior in children.C.The effect of violent TV programs on children needs furthe
42、r study.D.Both prosocial and antisocial behaviors can be learned from violent programs.(5).The last sentence of the passage implies (分数:2.00)A.the government will have to ban violence on TV under public pressure.B.violence in television programs will continue to appear in the future.C.producers and
