Last August, Joe and Mary Mahoney began looking at colleges for their 17-year-old daughter, Maureen. With a checklist of criteria in hand, the Dallas family looked around the country visiting half a dozen schools. They sought a university that offered the teenager’s intended major, one located near a large city, and a campus where their daughter would be safe.

 “The safety issue is a big one,” says Joe Mahoney, who quickly discovered he wasn’t alone in his worries. On campus tours other parents voiced similar concerns, and the same question was always asked: what about crime? But when college officials always gave the same answer — “That’s not a problem here.” — Mahoney began to feel uneasy.  

 “No crime whatsoever?” comments Mahoney today.  “I just don’t buy it.”  Nor should he: in 1999 the U.S. Department of Education had reports of nearly 400,000 serious crimes on or around our campuses. “Parents need to understand that times have changed since they went to colleges,” says David Nichols, author of Creating a Safe Campus. “Campus crime mirrors the rest of the nation.”

But getting accurate information isn’t easy. Colleges must report crime statistics （統(tǒng)計數(shù)字) by law, but some hold back for fear of bad publicity, leaving the honest ones looking dangerous. “The truth may not always be obvious,” warns S. Daniel Carter of Security on Campus, Inc., the nation’s leading campus safety watchdog group.

To help concerned parents, Carter promised to visit campuses and talk to experts around the country to find out major crime issues and effective solutions.

The Mahoneys visited quite a few colleges last August ______.

A. to express the opinions of many parents

B. to choose a right one for their daughter

C. to check the cost of college education   

D. to find a right one near a large city

It is often difficult to get correct information on campus crime because some colleges

______.

A. receive too many visitors                              B. mirror the rest of the nation

C. hide the truth of campus crime                      D. have too many watchdog groups

The underlined word “buy” in the third paragraph means ______.

A. mind                       B. admit                       C. believe                     D. expect

We learn from the text that  “the honest ones” in the fourth paragraph most probably

refers to colleges ______.

A. that are protected by campus security             B. that report campus crimes by law

C. that are free from campus crime                           D. the enjoy very good publicity

What is the text mainly about?   

A. Exact campus crime statistics.                       B. Crimes on or around campuses.

C. Effective solutions to campus crime.                     D. concerns about kids’ campus safety.

Too much TV-watching can harm children’s ability to learn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children.

One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs.

A second study ,looking at nearly 1000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among 26-year -olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood .But the results don’t prove that TV is the cause and don’t ride out that already poorly motivated youngsters(年輕人）may watch lots of TV.

Their study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages 5 and 15. These with college degrees had watched an average of less than two hours of TV per week night during childhood, compared with an average of more than 2 1/2 hours for those who had no education beyond high school.

In the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest.

While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to accumulating findings that children shouldn't have TVs in their bedrooms

1.According to the California study, the low-scoring group might   ____________ .

A．have had computers in their bedrooms

B．not be interested in math

C．be unable to go to college

D．have watched a lot of TV

2.What is the researchers’ understanding of the New Zealand study results?

A．The connection between TV and education levels is difficult to explain

B．Habits of TV watching reduce learning interest

C．TV watching leads to lower education levels of the 15-year-olds.

D．Poorly motivated 26-year-olds watch more TV.

3.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?

A．More time should be spent on computers.

B．TV sets shouldn't be allowed in children’s bedrooms.

C．Children should be forbidden from watching TV.

D．Further studies on high-achieving students should be done

4.What would be the best title for this text?

A．Computers or Television

B．Studies on TV and College Education

C．Effects of Television on Children

D．Television and Children’s Learning Habits
