urlivingspaceandbelongings.We’dnotonlydownsizedphysicalthings，butwe’dalsoclearedout＂可知，作者一家也清理了精神方面的杂乱。mental＂精神上的＂符合语境。physical＂身体的＂；social＂社交的＂；intellectual＂智力上的＂。6.A根据上下文的内容可知，作者一家从消除(removing)电视直播开始清理精神方面的杂乱。destroy＂摧毁＂；broadcast＂广播＂。7.B根据下文可知，一些美妙的事情纷至沓来(floodedin)。pullback＂撤退，退出＂；fadeaway＂逐渐消失＂；turnover＂翻转＂。8.C虽然作者从不看很多电视节目，但是在电视上看到的故事所引起(caused)的情绪经常(frequently)留在他的脑海里，让他郁郁不乐。challenge＂挑战＂；inspire＂激励，激发＂。9.B参见上题解析。gradually＂逐渐地＂；randomly＂随意地＂；occasionally＂偶然地＂。10.D没有了电视播出的暴力或悲伤，作者发现自己的精神状态更好了。根据语境，应用without＂无，没有＂。11.A根据语境可知，由于他们不再围绕每周的节目来制订计划表，计划制订变得简单易行了。schedule＂计划表，日程表＂。12.D关于谁看什么电视节目的争吵(quarrels)终止了。compromise＂妥协＂；comment＂评论＂。13.C根据语境可知，作者一家把自身投入到(devoted)写作、读书和享受自然(nature)中。abandononeselfto...＂陷入，沉湎于＂；submitoneselfto...＂顺从，屈服于＂；accustomoneselfto...＂使习惯于＂。12\n14.C参见上题解析。下文的＂wehadplentyofviewingtimeforthesunset，thestars，orthestormclouds＂是关键提示。company＂陪伴＂；silence＂寂静＂。18.C作者不禁琢磨着如果他们保留了电视(television)，多少珍贵的(priceless)回忆将不会被创造。countless＂无数的＂；endless＂无尽的＂；valueless＂无价值的，不值钱的＂。考生易误选D项。考生误选D项的根源在于未理解valueless的含义。valueless意为＂无价值的，不值钱的＂，而valuable意为＂珍贵的，有价值的＂，辨明了这两个词的含义，考生不难选出答案。19.D参见上题解析。promise＂承诺＂；tradition＂传统＂；appointment＂约定＂。20.A作者不会用那些时刻来交换(exchange)世界上所有的情景喜剧，访谈节目及电影。substitute＂代替，替换＂，substituteAforB意为＂用A代替B＂。IV.语法填空(每小题1分，共10分)阅读下面材料，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。WhichisthemostsignificantclassicalChinesepainting?AccordingtoPaulDenlinger,who
