That is because the television program by that name can now be seen in many parts of the world. That program became one of American exports soon after it went on the air in New York in 1969.In the United States more than six million children watch the program regularly. The viewers include more than half the countrys pre-school children, from every kind of economic, racial (種族的), and geographical group.Although some educators object (反對) to some parts of the program, parents praise (贊揚) it highly. Many teachers also consider it a great help, though some teachers find that problems come out when first graders who have learnt from “Sesame Street” are in the same class with children who have not watched the program.Tests have shown that children from all racial, geographical, and economic backgrounds have benefited (受益) from watching it. Those who watch it five times a week learn more than occasional (偶爾的) viewers. In the US the program is shown at different hours during the week in order to increase the number of children who can watch it regularly.The programs all use songs, stories, jokes and pictures to give children a basic understanding of numbers, letters and human relationships. But there are some differences. For example, the Spanish program, produced in Mexico City, devotes more time to teaching whole words than to teaching separate (單獨的) letters.Why has “Sesame Street” been so much more successful than other childrens shows? Many reasons have been suggested. People mention the educational theories (理論) of its creators, the support by the government and private businesses, and the skillful use of various TV tricks. Perhaps an equally important reason is that mothers watch it along with their children. This is partly because famous adult stars often appear on it. But the best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to learn. The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more.（1）Which of the following statements is NOT true?A . It is shown at different hours during the weekB . Famous adult stars often appear on it.C . This program has been on for less than forty yearsD . Children learn and enjoy themselves while watching it.（2）Why is “Sesame Street” so popular in the world?A . Because it is supported by the government and businessesB . Because it uses different kinds of skillful tricks.C . Because mothers watch it along with their children.D . Because it makes every child watching it feel able to learn.（3）The best title for this passage can be _.A . Sesame StreetB . Educating ChildrenC . TV ProgramsD . A Great Success23. （10分）閱讀理解 It all started at the beginning of the fifth grade. At first, Carmen wasnt really sure what was happening.

She had to do the same thing when she read street signs, or when she watched a movie.It wasnt long before Carmen found herself squinting all the time, but she didnt want anyone to know that. One day, she asked for a desk closer to the blackboard. Her teacher asked if she had trouble seeing the blackboard. Carmen shook her head, but she knew she couldnt pretend(假裝) much longer.At home, she had to sit closer and closer to the television while watching her favourite shows.

Hey, I didnt know you wore glasses. They look great!Carmen had forgotten that she was wearing the new glasses. Thanks, she replied shyly.

Most rubbish is made up of things we cant eat or use. If we kept these things we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of the city to a dump(垃圾站). Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system. The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets, bathtubs(澡盆) and other places.To keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. Finally, a house or a school may be built there, and then youd never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump.In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. The fire burns everything but the metal. Sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal. The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly change into something called humus(腐殖土), which looks like black earth. It is rich with kinds of things that feed plants and help make them grow. （1）You can most probably read the passage in _.A . a history bookB . a TV guideC . a science bookD . a telephone book（2）The underlined word “sewage” in the passage means_.A . 排污B . 染色C . 洗滌D . 吸塵（3）According to the passage, the food parts of rubbish can be used again_.A . to feed animalsB . to feed plantsC . to build a houseD . to make machines（4）How should we take care of a used metal box according to the passage?A .
