D、站在我面前的是一位身材高大、衣着讲究的先生，与我想象中的老海怪一样发出了长长的叫声。

【正确答案】C

cry from sth/doing sth”是习语，意思是：a very different

experience from sth/doing sth与某事物[做某事物]大不相同。“wolf”是狼的意思，“sea wolf”在这里是指海员，海员因长期在海上航行，在常人眼里有点怪异，译作“海怪”比较贴切。

Today the messages the average Westerner is surrounded with are not

religious but commercial, and forever happy. Fast-food eaters, news

anchors, text messengers, all smiling, smiling, smiling. Our magazines

feature beaming celebrities and happy families in perfect homes. And

since these messages have an agenda—to lure us to open our

第33题【单选题】

I found in my baby’s behaviour a metaphor for the new generation. My

wife and I had given him some books to examine，but he merely spit

upon them. When we read to him，he did not feel comfortable. And so it

is in the schools. We find that our students don’t read, that they look

down upon reading and scold those of us who teach it. All they want to

do is watch TV. After this experience with the baby, however, I have

reached a conclusion: let them watch it. If television is that much more

attractive to children than books, why should we fight it? Let them watch

it all they want!From the passage we know that the author is_____.

A、a doctor

down upon reading and scold those of us who teach it. All they want to

do is watch TV. After this experience with the baby, however, I have

One reason is economic. In a traditional agricultural economy, large

the fields and someone to take care of the parents in old age. In an

industrial economy, the situation is different. Many children do not help

a family; instead, they are an expense. Thus, industrialization has

generally brought down the birth rate. This was the case in Italy, which

was industrialized quite recently and rapidly. In the early part of the

twentieth century, Italy was a poor, largely agricultural country with a

high birth rate. After World WarⅡ, Italy's economy was rapidly
