It is not ABC, CBS, or FoxNor is it one of the cable net-works such as CNN, which carries only news and news storiesIt is not ESPN, the all-sports cable net-work, or even MTV, which is famous for its music videosRather it is PBS, Public Broadcasting System, a non-profit public broadcasting TV servicePBS has 349 member television stations in the USand some member stations by cable in CanadaPBS only attracts a minority of all TV viewers, about 2 percentThe industry leader, NEC, however, attracts 11 percent of viewersBut the growth of public television in the past two decades has been dramaticThis is especially noteworthy （值科关注） when one considers that public television stations must often survive on very limited budgets, on viewers donations, and on private foundations and some governmental fundingThe level of quality of PBS programs, whether in national and international news, entertainment, or education, is excellentAlmost a whole generation of children throughout the world is familiar with Sesame Street and the characters of The Muppet ShowPBS is especially well known for the quality of its many educational TV programsOver 95 percent of all public television stations have tele-coursesThese courses are accepted and supported by more than 1,800 colleges and universities throughout the USEach year, over a quarter of a million students take courses this way56According to this article, PBS received part of its funding from_Athe audience Bpublic schoolsCadvertising agencies Dother television stations57What is PBS most famous for?ACable services BGenerous donationsCTele-courses DLive news broadcasts58Which of the following is TRUE about public television stations ?AThe majority of their viewers are minority peopleBNinety-five percent of their programs are tele-coursesCThey are shrinking in number because they make no profitsDTheir courses are accepted by many universities in America 59Which of the following has the highest percentage of viewers?AABC BPBS CNBC DFox BMy old digital camera broke down, so I wanted to buy a new oneBeing the cautious type, I fancied a reliable brandSo I went on the Net, spent 15 minutes reading product reviews on good websites, wrote down the names of three top recommendations and headed for my nearest big friendly camera storeThere in the cupboard was one of the cameras on my listAnd it was on special offerOh joyI pointed at it and asked an assistant, Can I have one of those? He looked perturbed（ 不安）Do you want to try it first? he saidIt didn t quite sound like a questionDo I need to? I replied, Theres nothing wrong with it This made him look a bit offended and I started to feel badNo, noBut you should try it, he said encouragingly, Compare it with the othersI looked across at the others: shelves of similar cameras placed along the wall, offering a wide range of slightly different prices and discounts, with each company selling a range of models based around the same basic boxWith so many models to choose from, it seemed that I would have to spend hours weighing X against Y, always trying to take Z and possibly H into account at the same timeBut when I had finished, I would still have only the same two certainties that I had entered the store with: first, soon after I carried my new camera out of the shop, it would be worth half what I paid for it; and second, my wonderful camera would very quickly be replaced by a new modelBut something in the human soul whispers that you can beat these traps by making the right choice, the clever choice, the wise choiceIn the end, I agreed to try the model I had chosenThe assistant seemed a sincere manSo I let him take out my chosen camera from the cupboard, show how it took excellent pictures of my fellow shoppersand when he started to introduce the special features, I interrupted to ask whether I needed to buy a carry-case and a memory card as wellWhy do we think that new options still offer us anything new? Perhaps it is because they offer an opportunity to avoid facing the fact that our real choices in this culture are far more limited than we would like to imagine60The shop assistant insisted that the writer should _Atrust him and stop asking questionsBtry the camera to see if there was anything wrong with itCget more information about different companiesDcompare the camera he had chosen with the others61What does the writer mean by it would be worth half what I paid for it（ Paragraph 2）?AHe should get a 50% discountBThe price of the camera would soon fallCThe quality of the camera was not goodDThe price of the camera was unreasonably high62The writer decided to try the model he had chosen because he _Aknew very little about itBwanted to make sure the one he chose would be the bestCdidn t trust the shop assistantDhad a special interest in taking pictures of his fellow shoppers63It can be inferred from the passage that in the writers opinion, _Awe waste too much money on camerasBcameras have become an important part of our daily lifeCwe don t actually need so many choices when buying a product Dfamous companies care more about profit than qualityCPeople laugh and people cryBut it is thought that emotions such as anger, or joy, typically make Americans feel uncomfortable and embarrassedThe shedder of tears （落泪者） is likely to apologize, even when a great tragedy was the causeThe observer of tears is likely to do everything possible to put an end to the emotional tearsBut judging from recent studies of crying behavior, both those responses to tears are often inappropriate and may even be counterproductive （适得其反）Humans are the only animals clearly known to shed emotional tearsSince evolution has given rise to few purposeless physiological responses, it is logical to assume that crying has one or more functions that increase survivalAlthough some observers have suggested that crying is a way to ask for assistance form others （as a crying baby might from its mother）, the shedding of tears is hardly necessary to get helpVo-cal （出声的） cries would have been quite enough, more likely than tears to gain attentionSo, it appears that there must be something special about tears themselvesIndeed, the new studies suggest that emotional tears may play a direct role in easing stress University of Minnesota researchers who are studying the chemical composition of tears have recently separated two important chemicals from emotional tearsBoth chemicals are found only in tears that are shed in response to emotionTears shed because of exposure to cut onion would contain no such substanceOther researchers are looking into the usefulness of tears as a means of diagnosing human ills and monitoring drugsAt Tulane Universitys Teat Analysis Laboratory DrPeter Kastl and his colleagues report that they can use tears to detect drug abuse, to study the causes of dry eye syndrome （综合症）and the effects of eye surgery, and perhaps even to measure exposure to environmental pollutants64What does the phrase both those responses in Paragraph 1 refer to ?ACrying out of sorrow and shedding tears for happinessBThe embarrassment and unpleasant feelings of the observersCLinking illness with crying and finding the chemical composition of tearsDThe tear shedder s apology and the observer s effort to stop the crying 65It is known from the first paragraph that_Ashedding tears gives unpleasant feelings to AmericansBcrying may often result in tragedyCcrying usually wins sympathy from other peopleDone who sheds tears in public will be blamed 66What does the author say about crying?AIt is a pointless physiological response to the environmentBIt must have a role to play in man s survivalCIt is meant to get attention and assistanceDIt usually produces the desired effect 67From the passage we can infer that_Ait is unnatural for people to shed tearsBwe can reduce our stress by shedding tearsCshedders of tears can t get help by crying loudlyDunlike animals, humans can shed tears for survivalDWhenever people think of charity, the first word that jumps into their mind may be money donated to the needyHowever, Wugging, or web-use giving, describes the act of giving to charity at no cost to the userBy using Everyclickcom, which is being added to a number of univers
