2．Friday night，I was struggling to choose a good movie to watch.I spent 20 minutes looking through hundreds of choices at Amazon Video and still couldn't decide.In the back of my mind，I was thinking that I had to choose a great movie to watch，because if didn't I would be wasting my time.I thought that instead of watching a bad movie，I would be better off using my time in a more meaningful way（I see this as an opportunity cost）.After seeing the reviews and asking around for suggestions，ended up watching LaLa Land，a popular movie that most of my friends have seen recently.
The next day，I went to Duane Reade to buy toothpaste and was overwhelmed again by the large quantity of the choice.I started wondering if more choices empower consumers or just make them think they are empowered，when in reality they are just at a loss.
From finding a good restaurant to searching for your life partner，everything is all about choices；big or small，they are all related.Take dating life in New York for example.There are an endless range of choices which can lead to many New Yorkers finding it hard to make a decision.It is big city with a lot of lonely "I could do better" people that are constantly searching for the next best one.
It doesn't contradict with providing people choices and information to empower them，as there is difference between having a reasonable number of choices and an overwhelming amount.When we are overwhelmed with the number of choices we have，we end up less satisfied with the choice we make.You might calculate the opportunity cost and think about "what if".
I've started to realize that living a life with simplicity can sometimes be a challenge，but it is certainly worth it.

（3）What's the author's attitude towards the endless choices presented to him？
A．Positive.
B．Neutral.

D．Negative
（4）Which of the following is the best title of the passage？
A．Less is Better

3．When we've got children，it's typical of us to give careful thought to how much TV the children are watching and exposed to.Are we being overprotective about the effect reality TV is having on our child？The answer is "No".Or rather，there's increasing evidence that these programs can have a profound influence on young people.
A recent research indicates that some reality TV shows can be as damaging for teenage girls as too many cartoons are for kids.The truth is that reality TV is anything but reality-but that's not necessarily what our children believe.A study for the Girl Scout Research Institute in the US found that eight out of ten girls aged between 11 and 17 who regularly watch reality shows believe these programs describe real life.In fact，much of reality TV is a heavily manipulated（操縱）view of what's really happening，and the worst of it strengthens the sort of female stereotypes women have spent decades trying to remove.
Many of the women on reality TV shows are acting out lives as teenage mothers or drama queens.Strong，hard-working，purposeful young women with ambitions beyond their looks are rare in these programs.There's a widespread emphasis on the value of women concerning how they look and dress，which gives young viewers the message that being a woman is all about style and appearance，not what you do or stand for.Imran Siddiquee，Director of Social Media and Outreach，is concerned that these programs show the worst stereotypes of womanhood and "normalize" them in what appear to be everyday settings. "They offer such a limited view of what it is to be a woman，and all over the world young girls are addicted to it，" he says.
We should encourage our children to be critical thinkers.Whether reality TV is changing our children's views，or whether they are attracted to programs that agree with their beliefs，it's vital we that their viewing habits could strengthen these unbalanced ideas.
（1）Who is this passage most probably intended for？
A．General public.
B．Teenage girls.
C．TV producers.
D．Parents.
（2）What is the problem with a reality TV show？
A．Its contents and views are rather unreal.
B．It has removed the usual female stereotypes.
C．Its contents and views are rather artificial.
D．It overemphasizes young women's ambitions.
（3）According to Imran Siddquee，what should reality TV shows present？
A．Tips on how to become fashionable young girls.
B．Genuine reflections of females and their work.
C．Distinction between true life and TV dramas.
D．Ways to gain more popularity among peers.
（4）What is the text mainly about？
A．Reality TV shows' impact on young girls and parent's guidance.
B．Situations where teenagers are attracted to certain TV programs.
C．The way to help children to have the habit of critical thinking.
D．The stereotypes of women on TV and audience's reactions.組卷：10引用：1難度：0.5

Shanti wanted the wooden doll in Ramu's toy shop and told her best friend，Jodi about it.Jodi wondered if she could afford it.Shanti smiled， "I've asked my mom and I can make jasmine garlands（花環(huán)） and sell them at my aunt's stand in the market." Jodi thought it was a good idea.
Early the next morning，the girls met at the jasmine bushes outside Shanti's house.Delicate white flowers surrounded them with fresh scent.They picked blossoms with their fingers and then sat under a mango tree，tying up the flowers into garlands.Shanti could already see herself hugging that beautiful doll. "If we sell enough garlands，we can each get a doll." Shanti said.
Jodi shook her head.Her family was low on money that week.She had to use her money to pay for Kiran's medicine.Kiran was Jodi's little brother.Then Jodi picked up her garlands， "My mother is expecting me.I'll meet you at the market." Shanti spent the afternoon selling garlanded alone.By early evening，Shanti had sold all her flowers.
On the way home，Shanti saw Jodi heading to the market with her garlands.She was late because she had to watch Kiran while her mother was away.
"Why didn't you take him with you？" Shanti said.
Jodi shook her head， "He's too sick to go out.He coughs and coughs."
Shanti knew Jodi wouldn't make enough money for the medicine now.The market would be closing soon.Shanti looked at the purse tightly held in her hand.It was supposed to be for the beautiful doll she'd been dreaming of for long.Then she looked at her friend's tired face， "Here.Keep this for the medicine."
