细节题。第一段末句提到，孩子们每天仅有25%的时间为休闲时间，第二段首句说，孩子们与家长遭受同样的时间危机，即孩子与大人在自由支配休闲时间上的危机是一样的。正如C项所说，孩子大人都缺少休闲时间，故C为答案。47.D

推论题。第二段霍夫斯说，孩子与家长遭受同样的时间危机的影响，其原因是更多的母亲外出工作造成的。作者对此反驳说：“双亲皆工作和仅父亲外出上班这两种家庭里，孩子与父母一起的时间分别是19小时和22小时，而外出上班的单亲母亲与孩子一起的时间仅为9小时。”如此看来，母亲工作与否与孩子在一起的时间长短关系不大，故选D为答案。48.B

细节题。第三段末句指出，非组织性的活动，可鼓励孩子的独立思考，并能与玩伴合作建立友谊，这与B项表述一致，属同义转述。49.A

细节推论题。第三段末句说，非组织性的活动对孩子的发展有利，但3至12岁的孩子每周仅有12个小时做这样的活动，说明他们在参加越来越多有组织的活动。50.D

推论题。文章末段指出，孩子们看电视时间在减少，对家长来说是个好消息，他们千方百计使孩子对看书感兴趣，用阅读来代替看电视。孩子们看书的时间，一星期才一个多小时。这对家长来说，也算是好消息。说明家长对孩子看书的期望是多么地迫切啊！显然家长认为看书比看电视对孩子更有利。A、B项都与原文不符。C项“家长使孩子对阅读感兴趣已经颇有成效”与原文不符。D项“家长认为看书对孩子是有好处的”为正确答案。PassageTwoQuestions51to55arebasedonthefollowingpassage.ProfessorSmithrecentlypersuaded35people,23ofthemwomen,tokeepadiaryofalltheirabsent-mindedactionsforafortnight.Whenhecametoanalyzetheirembarrassinglapses(差错)inascientificreport,hewassurprisedtofindthatnearlyallofthemfellintoafewgroupings.Nordidthelapsesappeartobeentirelyrandom(随机的).Oneofthewomen,forinstance,onleavingherhouseforworkonemorningthrewherdogherearringsandtriedtofixadogbiscuitonherear,“theexplanationforthisisthatthebrainislikeacomputer,”explainstheprofessor.“Peopleprogramthemselvestodocertainactivitiesregularly.Itwasthewoman’scustomeverymorningtothrowherdogtwobiscuitsandthenputonherearrings.Butsomehowtheactiongotreversedintheprogram.”Aboutoneintwentyoftheincidentsthevolunteersreportedwerethese“programassemblyfailures”.Altogetherthevolunteerslogged433unintentionalactionsthattheyfoundthemselvesdoing—anaverageoftwelveeach.Thereappeartobepeakperiodsinthedaywhenweareatourzaniest(荒谬可笑的).Thesearetwohourssometimebetweeneighta.m.andnoon,betweenfourandsixp.m.withasmallerpeakbetweeneightandtenp.m.“Amongmenthepeakseemstobewhenachangeoverinbrain‘programs’occurs,asforinstancebetweengoingtoandfromwork.”Womenonaveragereportedslightlymorelapses—12.5comparedwith10.9formen—probablybecausetheyweremorereliablereporters.Astartlingfindingoftheresearchisthattheabsent-mindedactivityisahazardofdoingthingsinwhichweareskilled.Normally,youwouldexpectthatskillreducesthenumberoferrorswemake.Buttryingtoavoidsillyslipsbyconcentratingmorecouldmakethingsalotworse—evendangerous.51.InhisstudyProfessorSmithaskedthesubjects_____.A.tokeeptrackofpeoplewhotendtoforgetthingsB.toreporttheirembarrassinglapsesatrandomC.toanalyzetheirawkwardexperiencesscientificallyD.tokeeparecordofwhattheydidunintentionally52.ProfessorSmithdiscoveredthat_____.A.certainpatternscanbeidentifiedintherecordedincidentsB.manypeopleweretooembarrassedtoadmittheirabsent-mindednessC.mentendtobemoreabsent-mindedthanwomenD.absent-mindednessisanexcusablehumanweakness53.“Programassemblyfailures”(Para.2)referstothephenomenonthatpeople_____.A.oftenfailtoprogramtheirroutinesbeforehandB.tendtomakemistakeswhentheyareinahurryC.unconsciouslychangethesequenceofdoingthingsD.arelikelytomessthingsupiftheyaretootired54.Welearnfromthethirdparagraphthat_____.A.absent-mindednesstendstooccurduringcertainhoursofthedayB.womenareverycarefultoperformactionsduringpeakperiodsC.womenexperiencemorepea
