题文
Have you thought about what determines the way we are as we grow up? Remember the TV program Seven Up ? It started following the lives of a group of children in 1963. We first meet them as wide-eyed seven-year-olds and then catch up with them at seven-year intervals (间隔 ) : nervous 14-year-olds , serious 21-year-olds , then grown-ups.Some of the stories are inspiring ,others sad ,but what is interesting in almost all the cases is the way in which the children's early hopes and dreams are shown in their future lives, for example ,at seven ,Tony is a lively child who says he wants to become a sportsman or a taxi driver. When he grows up, he goes on to do both. How about Nicki ,who says, "I'd like to find out about the moon. " and goes on to become a space scientist. As a child, soft - spoken Bruce says he wants to help "poor children" and ends up teaching in India.
But if the lives of all the children had followed this pattern, the program would be far less interesting than it actually was. It was the children whose childhood did not prepare them for what was to come that made the program so inspiring. Where did their ideas come from about what they wanted to do when they grew up? Are children influenced by what their parents do ,by what they see on television ,or by what their teachers say? How great is the effect of a single important event? Many film directors ,including Stephen Spielberg ,say that an early visit to the cinema was the turning point in their lives. Dr. Magaret Mc Allister ,who has done a lot of research in this area ,thinks that the major influences are parents , friends and the wider society.

解析
文章介绍幼年时，父母、朋友和较广泛的社交圈子将影响孩子日后的生活。
小题1:主旨大意题。从文章所举的电视节目Seven Up及斯皮尔伯格的小时候去影院后来终成导演的例子来看，文章全是围绕着“童年经历对未来生活有很大影响”来展开的，故可知本文的主旨是D项。
小题2:细节题：从第一段的句子：We first meet them as wide-eyed seven-year-olds and then catch up with them at seven-year intervals (间隔 ) : nervous 14-year-olds , serious 21-year-olds , then grown-ups.可知在电视节目Seven Up里面我们会遇到不同人生阶段的相同的人，选C
小题3:推理判断题。第二段第一句讲到所有事例中最有趣的就是孩子们的希望和梦想在未来得到了实现，可见童年的希望与未来的工作是有关联的，故本题选A
小题4:推理判断题。包括斯皮尔伯格在内的许多导演都说，早期到电影院去是他们人生的转折点，由此可见特定的儿童时期的经历会决定孩子未来从事的职业。例子前的话“How great is the effect of a single important event？”也是暗示。B
小题5:细节题：从第二段的句子：Some of the stories are inspiring ,others sad ,but what is interesting in almost all the cases is the way in which the children's early hopes and dreams are shown in their future lives,可知作者认为这个节目很有趣，选A
