Children and teenagers who spend lots of time in front of screens---especially TVs---are　　 easier to get more weight as they grow, according to a new study.

The findings agree with the research suggesting all that inactive sitting and always watching　　 advertisements may lead to poor eating habits.

Researchers used results from a long-term study of children who took part in the surveys every two years. Children were between ages 9 and 16 when the study started. Out of 4,300 girls in the　　 study, 17 percent were overweight or obese（肥胖的）. Twenty-four percent of the 3,500 boys　　 were also above a healthy weight.

The surveys included questions about their height and weight as well as how much time they spent watching TV and DVDs and playing computer and video games.

From one survey to the next, each one-hour increase in children’s daily TV watching was in connection with an increase of about 0.1 points on a body mass index (BMI)（体质指数）, which measures weight in connection with height. There’s an increase of about half a pound in weight per extra hour of TV.

“The weight of the evidence is so strong that television watching is connected with unhealthy changes in weight among youth,” says Jennifer Falbe, who led the study while at the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston.

“It's important for parents to know that all the obesity-causing（引起肥胖的）screens really should be limited in their children's lives.” Falbe says. “When children watch TV, there are many food advertisements on TV that might lead them to eat a cookie or drink a soft drink.” What's more, she says, “they can get into a hibernating(冬眠) state on the sofa, even if children are sitting down while playing a computer game.”

1.Which of the following statements can be the best title for the text?

A. A new study on screens.　　　　　　　　　　

B. TVs do harm to children.

D. Too much screen time leads to obesity.

2. How many children took part in the study?

A. 4,300　　　　　　 B. 3,500

3.According to the study, one extra hour screen time will cause children about ______ pound

fatter.

A. 0.1　　　　　　　　 B. 0.5　　　　　　　

C. 0.3　　　　　　　 D. 0.7

4.According to Falbe , what should parents do to stop children getting fat?

A. Limiting the time of children watching TV.

B. Buying children food advertised on TV.

C. Not allowing children to watch TV.

D. Encouraging children to play computer games.

Lots of kids go through times when they’d like to change their hair. Often, it’s girls who are most concerned(关心的), but boys may be interested in how their hair looks, too. Sometimes hair will change as you get older----all by itself----when you go through puberty(青春期).

Maybe it used to be lighter and now it’s darker. Or maybe it’s oilier than it used to be, and now you need to wash it more. It’s also normal, as you’re getting older, to notice your appearance more often. You might suddenly decide you want a hairstyle like other kids at school have. But some styles and looks require chemical treatments and long hours in the chair at the hair salon. Some people dye(染)their hair a different color, get a bunch of braids(辫子），or make their hair straight when it’s curly（卷曲). Are these treatments OK for kids? That’s something you should discuss with your parents. At any age, any chemical or heat applied to(应用于) the hair can damage the hair or cause it to break off.

Any styling that pulls hard on the hair can also hurt the scalp(头皮) or cause hair loss. Styling tools, such as curling irons and straightening irons, get very hot and can cause burns. And chemicals used to color, curl, or straighten hair can be very harmful if they get into your eyes or onto your skin.

1.The word “kid”in this passage refers to ____________.

A．girls              B．boys             C．students          D．not only girls but also boys

A．If you want to change the color of your hair, you have to use chemical.

Are your children liked by their teachers? All parents want their children to impress(给...的印象) their teachers and succeed in school. You can get your children to impress their teachers by following these easy steps.

Make sure they’re prepared. Teachers are impressed by children coming to school prepared to learn. Make sure they have everything they need—pencils textbooks, erasers and so on.

Require them to be active in class. Teach them to ask teachers questions when they don’t understand something. Some children think teachers are bothered by questions, but most teachers are impressed when children take the initiative(采取主动) in asking questions. They should take part in class discussions, giving their opinions politely.

Keep your children healthy. If your children are tired and hungry, they won’t be ready to learn. Children need at least 8 to 10 hours of sleep per night. Feed your children a solid breakfast and prepare a healthy lunch. Provide them with fruit and other healthy foods—apples or bananas are better for them than cookies.

Make sure that your children do their homework. If they really don’t understand it, discuss it with them patiently. Don’t help them do their homework. Teachers can always tell who it is that does the work.

Although American children still spend part of their days reading, they are spending less time doing it for pleasure than years ago, with large gaps(差距) in proficiency(熟练)，according to a recent report.

“It raises an alarm,” said Vicky Rideout, the lead author of the report. “We’re witnessing a really large drop in reading among teenagers and the speed of that drop is getting faster and faster.”

The report found that the percentage of nine-year-old children reading for pleasure once or more per week had dropped from 81 percent in 1984 to 76 percent in 2013, based on government studies. About a third of 13-year-olds and almost half of 17-year-olds reported in one study that they read for pleasure less than twice a year.

Of those who read or are read to, children often spend on average between 30 minutes and an hour daily with that activity, the report found. Older children and teenagers tend(倾向于) to read for pleasure for an equally long time each day.

Rideout warned that there may be differences in how people come across texts and the included studies may not take into account stories read on line or on social media.

The report also found that many young children are struggling with literacy(识字). Only about one-third of fourth grade students are “proficient” in reading and another one-third scored below “basic” in reading skills.

Despite the large percentage of children with below-basic reading skills, reading scores among young children have improved since the 1970s, according to one test that measures reading ability.

The reading scores among 17-year-olds, however, reminded relatively unchanged since the 1790s.

About 46 percent of white children are considered “proficient” in reading, compared with 18 percent of black children and 20 percent of Hispanic kids.

Those gap remained relatively unchanged over the past 20 years, according to the report.

“To go 20 years with no progress in that area is shameful”, Rideout said.

The report stresses some behaviors that have been tied to children being more frequent readers. Those behaviors include parents setting aside time to read with their children and parents reading themselves to model good behavior.

1.The figures in paragraph 3 show that_____.

A. fewer children read for pleasure.

B. older children are busier than young children.

C. teenagers are more interested in online reading.

D. more elder children gain pleasure from reading.

2.Which of the following is TRUE about the report findings?

A. The reading scores among older children have improved.

B. The reading scores among young children haven’t changed.

C. The gap between black children and white children has narrowed.

D. Black children have lower proficiency in reading than white children.

3.What is the Vicky Rideout’s attitude towards the report findings?

A. Uncaring.　　　　 B. Doubtful.

C. Positive.　　 　　 D. Worried.

4.To make children frequent readers, parents should ______.

A. improve their reading skills.

B. read as many books as possible.

C. set a good example to their children.

D. spend more time with their children.
