29、e began to come to him. School was completely different from what he had expected-much harder. Stude nts rose respectfully whe n the teacher en tered the room. They took fourtee n subjects in stead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.Family life, t

30、oo, was different. The father s word was law, and all activities were around therather than the individual（ 個(gè)人 ）. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car. “ Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go ouatnd have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon l

31、earn to like it.”At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. should criticize （批評(píng)） American schools ”, he says.“It is far too eaesly.

37、aid they had done what theyd seen on TV.The incidents make people angry who believe that American children are harmed by watching too much TV. They claim children can t tell between the fiction of TV and reality, and TV distracts them from learning and makes them violent.To estimate the impact of TV

38、 on young people, “Life ”magazine hires a company to interview hundreds of school children in Nora Springs, Iowa and in Dallas, Texas.

39、f TV a day, recognizing that life on TV is rosier than what they experience. Their favourite shows are situation comedies about American families in trouble.
