IV. READ THE PASSAGE AND CHOOSE THE BEST ANSWERS TO THE QUESTIONS THAT
FOLLOW. (1PTS)
Television’s contribution to family life in the United States has been an equivocal one. For while it has,
indeed, kept the members of the family from dispersing, it has not served to bring them together. By
dominating the time families spend together, it destroys the special quality that distinguishes one family from
another, a quality that depends to a great extent on what a family does, what special rituals, games, recurrent
jokes, familiar songs, and shared activities it accumulates.
“Like the sorcerer of old,” writes Urie Bronfenbrenner, “the television set casts its magic spell, freezing
speech and action, turning the living into silent statues so long as the enchantment lasts. The primary danger of
the television screen lies not so much in the behavior it produces — although there is danger there — as in the
behavior it prevents : the talks, games, the family festivities, and arguments through which much of the child’s
learning takes place and through which character is formed. Turning on the television set can turn off the
process that transforms children into people.”
Of course, families today still do special things together at times : go camping in the summer, go to the zoo on
a nice Sunday, take various trips and expeditions. But the ordinary daily life together is diminished — that
sitting around at the dinner table, that spontaneous taking up of an activity, those little games invented by
children on the spur of the moment when there is nothing else to do, the scribbling, the chatting, the quarreling,
all the things that form the fabric of a family, that define a childhood.
Instead, the children have their regular schedule of television programs and bedtime, and the parents have
their peaceful dinner together. But surely the needs of adults are being better met than the needs of children,
who are effectively shunted away and rendered untroublesome.
If the family does not accumulate its backlog of shared experiences, shared everyday experiences that occur
and recur and change and develop, then it is not likely to survive as anything other than a caretaking institution.

VI. SUPPLY EACH BLANK WITH ONE SUITABLE WORD. (1.5PTS)
SMILE POWER
The expression on your face can actually dramatically alter your feelings and perceptions, and it has been
proved that (1) _______ smiling or frowning can create corresponding emotional responses. The idea was first
put forward by a French physiologist, Israel Waynbaum, in 1906. He believed that different facial (2) ________
affected the flow of blood to the brain, and that this could create positive or negative feelings. A happy smile or
irrepressible (3) _________ increased the blood flow and contributed to joyful feelings. However, sad, angry
expressions decreased the flow of oxygen-carrying blood, and created a vicious circle of gloom and depression
by effectively starving the brain of essential fuel.
Psychologist Robert Zajonc rediscovered this early research, and (4) ________ that the temperature of the brain
could affect the production and synthesis of neurotransmitters — which definitely influence our moods and
energy levels. He argues that an impaired blood flow could not (5) ________ deprive the brain of oxygen, but
create further chemical imbalance (6)________ inhibiting these vital hormonal messages. Zajonc goes on to
propose that our brains remember that smiling is associated with being happy, and that by deliberately smiling
through your tears you can (7)_________ your brain to release uplifting neurotransmitters — replacing a
depressed condition (8) ________ a happier one. People suffering from psychosomatic (9)_______, depression
and anxiety states could (10) _______ from simply exercising their zygomatic muscles which pull the corners
of the mouth up and back to form a smile — several times an hour.
