阅读理解-The main idea of this passage is that _____.
The worst thing about television and radio is that they entertain us, “saving” us the trouble of entertaining ourselves.A hundred years ago, before all these devices were invented, if a person wanted to entertain himself with a song or a piece of music, he would have to do the singing himself or pick up a violin and play it.Now, all he has to do is turn on the radio or TV.As a result, singing and music have declined. Italians used to sing all the time.Now, they only do it in Hollywood movies.Indian movies are mostly a series of songs and dances wrapped around silly stories.As a result, they don’t do much singing in Indian villages anymore.Indeed, ever since radio first came to life, there has been a terrible decline in amateur singing throughout the world. There are two reasons for this sad decline: One, human beings are astonishingly lazy.Put a lift in a building, and people would rather take it than climb even two flights of steps.Similarly, invent a machine that sings and people would rather let the machine sing than sing themselves.The other reason is people are easily embarrassed.When there is a famous, talented musician readily available by pushing a button, which amateur violinist or pianist would want to try to entertain family or friends by himself? These earnest reflections came to me recently when two CDs arrived in the mail: They are historic recordings of famous writers reading their own works.It was thrilling to hear the voices from a long dead past in the late 19th century.But today, reading out loud anything is no longer common.Today, we sing songs to our children until they are about two, we read simple books to them till they are about five, and once they have learnt to read themselves, we become deaf.We’re alive only to the sound of the TV and the stereo. I count myself extremely lucky to have been born before TV became so common.I was about six before TV appeared.To keep us entertained, my mother had to do a good deal of singing and tell us endless tales.It was the same in many other homes.People spoke a language; they sang it, they recited it; it was something they could feel. Professional actors’ performance is extraordinarily revealing.But I still prefer my own reading.Because it’s mine.For the same reason, people find karaoke liberating.It is almost the only electronic thing that gives them back their own voice.Even if their voices are hoarse and hopelessly out of tune.At least it is meaningful self-entertainment.
阅读理解
A.TV and radio can amuse us with beautiful songs and music
B.TV and radio have weakened our interest in entertaining ourselves
C.people should not be too lazy or embarrassed to sing
D.parents should sing songs and read books aloud to their children
我个人认为这个应该是：B
解析：第二段作者说：100年前当电视和广播还没有发明出来的时候，如果一个人想要用唱歌和音乐来消遣一下的时候，他们要么自己放声歌唱，要么拿起小提琴自己演奏。可是现在他只要打开收音机和电视机就可以了。这样歌唱和演奏音乐的人就越来越少了。
