My Favorite TV Program
My favorite TV program is the documentary series “Planet Earth.” It is shown on CCTV every Sunday night.
There are two main reasons why I enjoy it so much. First, the photography is amazing. It shows animals and places from all over the world that I could never see in real life. Second, the narration is clear and full of interesting facts. It explains complex nature in a simple way.
From this program, I have learned a lot about the beauty of our planet. I now understand how different ecosystems work and why it’s important to protect them. It has made me more aware of environmental issues. I believe such programs are valuable because they educate while they entertain.

三、阅读理解
阅读下列短文,从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出一个最佳选项。
A
With the development of technology, the way we watch television has changed dramatically in recent years. Traditional TV is no longer the only option for viewers. Now people have more choices than ever before.
Streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime have become increasingly popular. These services allow users to watch movies and TV shows anytime, anywhere, as long as they have an internet connection. Unlike traditional TV, streaming services don’t have fixed schedules. Viewers can watch what they want when they want. They can also binge-watch entire seasons of their favorite shows in one sitting.
Another big change is the rise of smart TVs. These TVs can connect to the internet, allowing users to access streaming services, browse the web, and even use apps. Many smart TVs also have voice control features, making them more convenient to use.
Social media has also influenced how we watch TV. Now people often live-tweet while watching popular shows, sharing their reactions and opinions with others in real time. This creates a sense of community among viewers, even if they are watching alone at home.
However, these changes also bring challenges. With so many options available, people might feel overwhelmed. They might spend too much time deciding what to watch rather than actually watching something. This is sometimes called “choice paralysis.”
Another concern is that traditional TV channels might lose viewers, which could affect the quality and variety of programs they produce. Some people worry that if everyone only watches what they already like, they might miss out on discovering new and different types of programs.
Despite these challenges, most people agree that having more choices is a good thing. The key is to use these new technologies wisely and not let them control our lives.

Reality TV has become one of the most popular types of television programming in recent years. From talent competitions to shows about everyday life, reality TV attracts millions of viewers worldwide. But why is it so popular, and what effects does it have on viewers?
One reason for reality TV’s popularity is that it often features ordinary people rather than professional actors. Viewers can relate to these people and imagine themselves in similar situations. The emotions and reactions seem more real because the participants are not following a script.
Another appeal of reality TV is the drama and conflict it often presents. Whether it’s arguments between contestants on a talent show or challenges faced by people living together in a house, these conflicts keep viewers engaged and wanting to see what happens next.
However, reality TV has been criticized for several reasons. First, it often presents an unrealistic view of life. Situations are exaggerated for entertainment value, and editing can manipulate how events are portrayed. This might give viewers a distorted understanding of real-life relationships and challenges.
Second, reality TV can have negative effects on participants. Being constantly filmed and judged by the public can be extremely stressful. Some former reality TV stars have spoken about the mental health challenges they faced after appearing on these shows.
For viewers, especially young ones, reality TV might create unrealistic expectations about life, fame, and success. It might also promote negative behaviors, such as gossiping or being mean to others, if these behaviors are presented as entertaining on screen.
Despite these criticisms, not all reality TV is bad. Some shows have positive messages, such as those that focus on personal growth, helping others, or developing talents. The key is for viewers to watch critically and understand that what they see on TV is often edited and manipulated for entertainment purposes.
As with any type of media, balance is important. Watching some reality TV for entertainment is fine, but it shouldn’t be the only type of program viewers watch. Diverse viewing habits help develop a more balanced understanding of the world.
( )36、Why can viewers relate to people on reality TV according to the passage?
A. Because they are all famous actors.
B. Because they are often ordinary people.
C. Because they are all very rich.
D. Because they are all highly educated.
( )37、What is one appeal of reality TV mentioned in the passage?
A. It presents drama and conflict.
B. It always has happy endings.
C. It teaches useful life skills.
D. It is completely unscripted.
( )38、What is one criticism of reality TV?
A. It is too expensive to produce.
B. It is always boring and predictable.
C. It only features professional actors.
D. It presents an unrealistic view of life.
( )39、How might reality TV negatively affect young viewers?
A. By making them study too hard.
B. By teaching them too many facts.
C. By giving them unrealistic expectations.
D. By making them exercise too much.
( )40、What does the author suggest about watching reality TV?
A. Never watch it at all.
B. Only watch shows with famous people.
C. Watch it critically and in balance with other programs.
D. Watch as much as possible to understand it better.
C
Educational television has been an important tool for learning since the mid-20th century. From shows that teach basic reading and math to documentaries that explore complex scientific concepts, educational TV can complement classroom learning and spark curiosity in viewers of all ages.
For young children, programs like Sesame Street have been proven to help with early literacy and numeracy skills. These shows use songs, stories, and friendly characters to make learning fun. Research has shown that children who watch educational programs tend to perform better in school, especially if they come from disadvantaged backgrounds.
For older students and adults, documentaries and news programs can provide deep dives into specific topics. Channels like National Geographic, the History Channel, and Discovery offer programs that cover everything from ancient civilizations to space exploration. These shows can bring textbook information to life with vivid visuals and expert explanations.
However, for educational TV to be effective, viewers need to be actively engaged rather than just passively watching. Taking notes, discussing the content with others, or doing further research on topics that interest you can enhance the learning experience.
Another benefit of educational TV is that it can make learning accessible to people who might not have other educational opportunities. In remote areas without good schools, or for people who cannot afford formal education, television can be a valuable source of knowledge.
Of course, educational TV has its limitations. It cannot replace the interactive experience of a classroom or the personalized feedback from a teacher. It also requires viewers to have enough self-discipline to choose educational programs over purely entertaining ones.
To make the most of educational TV, it’s helpful to have a plan. Decide what you want to learn about, find high-quality programs on that topic, and set aside regular time to watch them. Discussing what you’ve learned with friends or family can help reinforce the knowledge.
In the age of the internet, educational content is more available than ever, but television still plays an important role. Well-produced educational programs can inspire a lifelong love of learning and help viewers understand complex issues in our world.
( )41、How do educational programs help young children according to the passage?
A. By helping with early literacy and numeracy skills.
B. By making them watch TV all day.
C. By teaching them how to use computers.
D. By making them dislike school.
( )42、What is one benefit of documentaries for older students?
A. They replace the need for textbooks.
B. They make students stop going to school.
C. They are always more accurate than books.
D. They can bring textbook information to life.
( )43、What do viewers need to do for educational TV to be effective?
A. Watch it while doing other things.
B. Only watch it late at night.
C. Be actively engaged with the content.
D. Watch it without thinking.
( )44、How can educational TV help people in remote areas?
A. By giving them money.
B. By being a source of knowledge when schools are not available.
C. By teaching them how to farm.
D. By providing them with free TVs.
( )45、What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To criticize educational TV.
B. To promote a specific educational TV channel.
C. To explain the benefits and limitations of educational TV.
D. To argue that TV is better than the internet for education.
