【解析】

試題分析：本文屬于說明文閱讀，主要講述的是電視和報刊雜志這兩種媒體各自的優(yōu)點和缺點。

【1】B 根據(jù)橫線后兩句Watching them is pleasant and does not require the effort of reading. If television did not cover the news, some people would know nothing about what is going on in the world.可知本段主要講述的是電視的作用，看電視很令人愉悅，而且看電視努力。如果我們不看電視，我們就不會知道世界上所發(fā)生的事情。故B項“Television news shows are impressive and interesting.”與本段中心思想是一致的。

【2】G 根據(jù)橫線前面一句Viewers are quickly bored with reporters who sit and talk into the camera.觀眾很快就厭倦了看著記者報道這些新聞。說明本段主要講述的是電視的弱點，選項中只有G項“As a result, a complicated story is often cut short.”在敘述電視報道的弱點。

【3】F 文章二、三段在敘述電視的弱點，在第四段中敘述的是另外一種媒體：報刊雜志的優(yōu)點。根據(jù)橫線后兩句They can include details, and a person with a special interest can take the time to read them. Others can stick to the headlines在報刊雜志中，可以詳細地報道細節(jié)，同時還可以通過大標題了解中心思想。所以F項“newspapers and magazines do a better job of explaining complex events.”新聞報刊可以報道復雜的事件，與上一段最后一句的G項相呼應。

【4】D 根據(jù)橫線前一句Reading allows more freedom of choice than television閱讀給讀者選擇閱讀內容的自由，而電視觀眾只能觀看電視里播放的內容，觀眾是沒有自由的。故D項“The TV audience cannot decide which stories to watch.”與前一句相一致。

【5】E 根據(jù)橫線后一句However, a person who has individual interests and who wants the whole story needs newspapers and magazines as well.可知對某個事件有興趣的人可以在報刊雜志里閱讀到更多的信息，而電視只能讓觀眾知道所發(fā)生的事情，電視的報道不夠深入。故E項“Television provides a useful glance at what’s happening.”與上下文一致。
