Benjamin Spock was a famous doctor for children.He completed his medical degree at
Columbia University in New York City and began to treat babies and children in 1933.During
the next ten years he continued to fit the theories about how children develop with what
mothers told him about their children.What he found gave birth to his first book The Common
Sense Book of Baby and Child Care.
Before Dr.Spock's book appeared,the most popular guide to raising children was
Psychological Care of Infant and Child,whose writer was John B.Watson.He urged extreme
firmness in dealing with children.The book warned parents never to kiss,hug or physically
comfort their children.
Dr.Spock's book was very different.He gave gentle advice to ease the fears of new
parents. Dr.Spock said his work was an effort to help parents trust their own natural abilities
in caring for their children.He emphasized that parents'"natural loving care"for their children
is most important.
Dr.Spock based much of his advice on the research and findings of the famous Austrian
psychoanalyst( 精 神 分 析 学 家 ),Sigmund Freud.“I was interested in how children grow
emotionally.And I think Freud has given us a very good explanation of development.”
Dr.Spock's book discusses the mental and emotional development of children.It urges
parents to use that information to decide how to deal with their babies when they are crying,
hungry or tired.For example,Dr.Spock dismissed the popular idea of exactly timed feedings
for babies.Baby care experts had believed that babies must be fed at the same times every day
or they would grow up to be demanding children.
Dr.Spock said babies should be fed when they are hungry.He argued that babies know
better than anyone about when and how much they need to eat.He did not believe that feeding
babies when they cry in hunger would make them more demanding.
750,000 copies of the book were sold during the year after its release.
24.What may contribute to Spock's first book?
A.His fame.
B.His mother
C.His discovery.
D.His education.

A.Covering professional theories.

D.Building up parents' confidence.

A.Parents should hug babies regularly.
B.Parents should warn babies of danger.
C.Parents should follow Watson's opinions.
D.Parents should feed babies when necessary.
27.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A.An introduction to Spock and his book.
B.Stories about Spock as a famous doctor.
C.Differences between two baby care books.
D.Influences of Spock's book on other experts.
C
The mushrooming video screens in buses,taxis and apartment halls in cities like
Shanghai are taking away our already rare resource:a place for a moment of peace.Taking a
nap or reading a book on buses is less pleasant now,as the LCD screens broadcast news,
entertainment and advertisements at unbearable volumes.
You pay the bus fare simply to get a ride—undisturbed-but now you are exposed to this
“added value”,whether you like it or not.If it's a crowded bus,the noise is even more
exasperating.More and more Chinese cities have joined Shanghai,regarded as the first to put
video screens on buses,disturbing millions of passengers.
Some may like to watch programme aired on buses or in apartment halls.But those who
don't should be equally respected.Because of the bus screens,students cannot focus on
reviewing their lessons or preparing for a test.People who like to read or reflect feel unsettled
by the noise.Youngsters who like to listen to music on their iPods must increase the volume to
fight against the competing audio.If you already feel stressed after a busy day,the bus video
advertising certainly increase the tension of both your muscles and nervous system.Bus
drivers are surely the worst victims because they have to bear it at least eight hours a day,non-
stop.
A high public tolerance for noise pollution has helped bus video advertisers to expand
their businesses.But opposition has already started to make its voice heard.Some people have
already accused bus companies of breaking their contracts,since their obligation is only to
deliver passengers to their destinations.
Shanghai,as a world-class city,should set an example for the country.It should first adopt
world-class behavior in its massive public transportation system to return the public a
peaceful place
28.What does the underlined word"exasperating"in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Entertaining.
B.Encouraging.
C.Disappointing.
D.Annoying
29.Who are influenced most heavily by the video screens according to Paragraph 3?
A.Students.
B.Bus drivers.
C.Youngsters.
D.Office employees.
30.What does the public tolerance for noise pollution cause?
A.More use of public transport.
B.An increase in bus video advertising.
C.More complaints about bus companies.
D.Lower public awareness of consumer rights.
31.What's the author's attitude to the video screens in the public?
A.Opposed
B.Unclear.
