山东自学考试-《英语一》自考练习

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.

【隐藏答案】

【正确答案】 D

【答案解析】 根据本段第五句话的信息，我们会很容易地推断出作者是一位教师。这句话的原文是： We find that our students don’t read，that they look down upon reading and scold those of us who teach it. 它的意思是：我们发现我们的学生不读书，瞧不起读书，而且还骂我们这些教他们读书的人。由此来看，这里的“我们”指的就是当老师的这些人。
