Lots of teens and adolescents still read quite a lot. But a study shows a clear decline over time. Nearly half of 17yearolds say they read for pleasure no more than one or two times a year,and thats way down from a decade ago.The digital revolution means there are more platforms than ever to read on. Jim Steyer has been studying the effect of technology on children, and he finds the results striking. Steyer has four kids and has seen the trend most with his 16yearold.“I start to see it in our 10yearold, because he is less and less reading, and more and more attracted to some of the digital media platforms that he has access to.”he says.Researchers want to know more about how teens are spending their time in the digital age. But Kathryn Zickuhr of the Pew Research Center says its tricky. If a kid is looking at a book,you can assume he or she is reading. But when it comes to looking at a smartphone or tablet, who knows?“Weve heard from middle and high school teachers that sometimes the Internet is wonderful for highly motivated students to do deep and expansive research,”says Zickuhr. “But on the other hand, obviously there are many distractions(干扰) on the Internet.”“Despite those distractions,parents can do a lot to promote reading. Kids with parents who read,who buy or take books out of the library for their kids,and who then set time aside in their kids daily schedule for reading, tend to read the most, whether its on a book, an ebook or some other devices.”Jim Steyer says.【文章大意】本文是一篇生活类文章。该文章主要讲述了在现在的数字时代,青少年读书越来越少了。作者呼吁父母们关注孩子和孩子一起读书,享受读书的快乐。1What does Jim Steyer see in his four kids?AThey become addicted to magic novels.BThey read for pleasure more frequently.CThey spend too much time on electronic devices.DThey get their reading ability improved on the Internet.C解析:推理判断题。通读文章的第一、二、三段,特别是根据第三段Jim Steyer所说的话“I start to see it in our 10yearold,because he is less and less reading,and more and more attracted to some of the digital media platforms that he has access to.”可知他发现孩子们在电子产品上花费的时间太多了。故选C。2According to Kathryn Zickuhr, Ait is easy to know whether a kid is reading on a tabletBkids are making the best of the Internet in their studyCthe Internet is an effective motivation to readingDthe Internet can easily get students unfocusedD解析:推理判断题。根据文章第五段的“But on the other hand,obviously there are many distractions(干扰) on the Internet.”可推出Kathryn Zickuhr认为因特网很容易让孩子分心。故选D。3According to the last paragraph, the key to helping kids to read more is Athe InternetBparentsCdigital devices DscientistsB解析:细节理解题。根据文章最后一段的“Despite those distractions,parents can do a lot to promote reading.”可知促进孩子读更多的书的关键在于父母。故选B。4Which of the following questions is the passage intended to explain?AHow do parents get teens out of digital media?BWhat can be done to help kids to read for fun?CWhy are teens reading less than before in digital age?DWhy is reading for pleasure beneficial to kids?
