　　A

　　Bang!

　　In my memory, I’ve listened to that door being shut behind my best friend a thousand times. It was the last time I played with Millie.

　　I knocked on the door every day, but her mother always said Millie was busy and couldn’t come out to play. Millie was busy? Too busy to play?

　　I might have never known the truth of the matter, if several weeks later I hadn’t overheard my mother say to my father that maybe I would calm down like Millie if we got a television too.

　　What on earth was a television? The word was new to me, but I was clever enough to figure out (明白) that Millie’s daddy had brought home a television that night.

　　“Television eats people,” I said to my parents.

　　“Oh, Lydia Jane,” they said, laughing. “Television doesn’t eat people. You’ll love television just like Millie. She’s inside her house watching it right this time.”

　　Christmas arrived, and my parents brought home a TV. We stopped having dinner at the dining table after my mother turned it on. During the meal we used to talk to one another. Now television talked to us.

　　Before we had a television, I would lie in bed at night, listening to my parents in their room saying things I couldn’t understand. Now Dad went to bed after the weather forecast, and Mum stayed up to see a late night talk show. I went to sleep listening to voices in my memory.

　　It seemed that everybody liked to watch television more than I did. I had no interest at all in sitting still when I could be climbing trees or riding a bike. Millie never again had any interest in doing any of those things.

　　I never had another best friend like Millie.

　　1. What was Millie busy doing when the writer

　　asked her to play?

　　A. Doing her homework.

　　B. heard something on purpose

　　D. heard somebody talking in the next room

　　3. From the passage we can know that _______.

　　A. TV calmed down all the active children

　　B. TV made some children lose interest in outdoor activities

　　C. TV comforted the writer’s family

　　D. TV began to enter thousands of families

　　4. The writer didn’t like TV because _______.
