阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A

Signing up for a digital TV service provides you with access to over 200 channels from all over the

globe. However, television today is dominated by adult language, making it hard for concerned families to find channels suitable for young eyes. Therefore, most movie channels are automatically removed form the list of TV channels for an entire family. The following are some good ones based on popularity on a global scale.

Discovery Channel

Discovery and its many channels can be considered as the founding father of informative channels on

television. What National Geographic does in a scholastic(学术的) manner, Discovery tries to do in an entertaining manner—educating the masses about anything and everything.

Fox Family

Finding a movie channel that broadcasts pictures suitable for teenagers and kids alike is very difficult

unless your service operator offers you Fox family movies. This channel screens most movies before it broadcasts them, ensuring that no movie shows unacceptable material for young eyes.

Nickelodeon

A channel very similar to Cartoon Network, it mostly shows US programs. However, their shows are

sometimes a bit more mature for younger kids and better suited to kids aged 5and up.

ABC Family

ABC started the ABC family channel in an attempt to introduce family-centered shows and serials to

the public in the USA. The need for this channel was felt after ABC observed the lack of proper family type US channels.

Living

If travelling is a family hobby and better living is the motto then there is no better channel than Living.

Kids can see never-seen-before sights, learning about new places while adults can practice their cooking and learn amazing things about motorbikes.

21. According to the text, most channels offered by a digital TV service ______. A. can keep people away from TV violence B. are welcomed by families with small children C. are concerned about the proper use of language D. are unsuitable for the whole family to watch together 22. Which of the following can best describe Discovery Channel? A. Relaxing.

B. Touching.

C. Commercial.

D. Professional.

23. If people want to know about what a traditional family is like, they can choose ____. A. Fox Family B. Nickelodeon

B

I believe you can do your best. Not being the best but toughing the limits of what you’re capable of. I gained this belief from my third grade teacher, the most special, honored, trustworthy, and loved person in my life.

Mr. Myrus was always perfectly dressed and spoke with the belief that talking to eight-year-olds didn’t mean he had to sacrifice proper statements or grammars. And he was demanding but he wasn’t unreasonable or cruel. He simply felt that no matter what your best was, you should achieve it.

As luck would have it, I met him again as my eighth grade math teacher. I was not, nor ever will be,

C. ABC Family

D. Living
