Parents should also set family rules covering the use of the Internet, cellphones, including, perhaps, which sites can be visited, and who can be called. The policy also restated the existing recommendations: Kids should limit the amount of screen time for entertainment to less than two hours per day; children younger than 2 shouldnt have any TV or Internet exposure. Also, televisions and Internet-accessible devices should be kept out of kids bedrooms.Doctors say parents need to obey the family rules, too, to model healthy behavior. That, some say, may be the toughest part. “If you go to any restaurant, Family 3.0 is Mom and Dad on their devices and the kids on theirs”, says Donald, a pediatrician and an AAP spokesman. “Who is talking to each other?”Children aged from 8 to 18 spent an average of 7 hours and 38 minutes a day consuming media for fun, including TV, music, video games and other content in 2009, according to a 2010 report from the Kaiser Family Foundation. The report was based on a survey of 2002 third through twelfth graders, 702 of whom completed a seven-day media use diary. That was up about an hour and 17 minutes a day from five years earlier. About two-thirds of 8 to 18-year-olds said they had no rules on the amount of time they spent watching TV, playing video games or using the computer, the Kaiser report found.Use of mobile devices by young kids has soared. A new report from Common Sense Media, a child-advocacy group based in San Francisco, found that 17% of children 8 and younger use mobile devices daily, up from 8% in 2011.56. Which statement is True according to the 1st paragraph?A. Overuse of electronic media has caused many severe problems.B. “Family media use plan” is being carried out throughout America.C. Electronic media are evil in the eyes of parents and educators. D. Parents are advised to ban electronic media after mealtimes.57. Which is Not included in the new policy?A. Childrens screen time for entertainment should be limited.B. Children cant call whoever they want to call without parents permission.C. Children can only play video games in their bedrooms.D. Children younger than 2 should neither watch TV nor surf the Internet. 58. What can be inferred according to the report from the Kaiser Family Foundation?A. Kids are spending less and less time using media for fun.B. The report was based on the statistics in 2002.C. 702 of the surveyed kids completed a seven-day media use diary.D. The majority of the surveyed kids can use electronic devices as they like in their homes.59. What can be the best title of the passage?A. Consuming media for fun is a nature of kidsB. Measures should be taken to stop childrens overuse of electronic mediasC. No use, no worryD. Electronic devices threaten the relationship of many familiesBAdvertising means to draw peoples attention to something. It is a central feature of our lives. Sales depend upon it.

Two years ago, I designed and made a set of outfits from recyclable materials for a charity fashion show. Through this highly meaningful and profound experience, I became aware of the importance of protecting and preserving our environment when designing and making fashion items, resulting in my founding an organization to promote eco-friendly, design and fashion.My interest has led me to research areas of fashion that have environmental implications. For example, some popular clothing stores have announced marketing policies designed to improve the environment. For those of us who are eco-conscious, it is responsible for us to evaluate whether such policies are just a marketing promotion, or represent great efforts to protect our environment.Three chain-stores, H&M, Urban Outfitters and Forever 21, have been promoting green items. After I examined their products, I have concluded that H&M and Urban Outfitters are truly helping the environment with their efforts, while Forever 21 seems to be using the go green trend as a way to sell more products, rather than genuinely help the environment.Of these three stores, H&M has the most extensive eco -fashion plans. It is already well on its way to carrying out its plans by increasingly mixing organic cotton into their garments, as well as putting fully organic cotton items on the market. The store also belongs to the Organic Exchange Organization, which approves of growth of organic cotton. To reduce the harm from non-organic cotton production, H&M is involved with the Better Cotton Project. Mindful of the unfavorable effects of climate change, the store aims to minimize transportation and energy usage. H&M labels their eco-friendly products with an official symbol, the Flower, to represent a production system that is less harmful than most traditional processes. Because of these actions and policies, H&M is already well on its way to making a difference on the environment.With its Urban Renewal brand, Urban Outfitter takes a different approach than H&M in promoting eco-friendly fashion. The brand features womens clothes made from strictly environmentally-friendly sources, such as vintage, dead stock, or surplus clothing. Urban Renewal produces fashionable garments, and embraces being eco-friendly through recycling.Unlike the other two stores above, Forever 21 s eco-fashion efforts fall short; some people would say their message is thoroughly misleading. It promotes the green image, and yet many of their supposed eco-friendly products do not help the environment. For example, it sells a Think Green Tote that, according to the site, is meant to send an environmentally friendly message. However it is made of 100% non-organic cotton which is one of the most damaging fabrics to the environment, mostly because it requires greater chemical intervention compared to organic cotton. Also, the I Love My Planet Tote is supposed to make a positive statement, but is also made of 100% cotton that is not organic. The only tote that is environmentally-friendly is the H81 Organic Cotton Tote from Forever 21s Heritage brand, made from 100% organic cotton. Now that Forever 21 has portrayed itself as being green, it should start walking the walk.63. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means .A. the writer publicly urges the Forever 21 to put its campaign into practiceB. the Forever 21 has already been on its way to transform its negative image C. all the customers are trying not to walk into the Forever 21 to buy productsD. the environmental problem is so serious that we should pay more attention64. Which of the following supports the authors opinion?A. The authors environmental awareness comes from his shopping experiences. B. Someone uses the go green trend just as a trick to make more profit.C. None of the three stores makes a difference on the ecological protection.D. It is still a very long way before we humans will use real green products.65. The passage is developed by . A. showing cause and effect B. giving concrete figures C. using time order D. making comparison and contrast66. Which of the following statements can be the best title? A. Does the Trend of Eco-Friendly Help the Environment? B. Green Products Are Common in Fashion Stores. C. Are Chain Stores in Fashion Really Going Green?D. A Survey of Eco-Friendly Design on Fashion Markets.DThe next generation of smart phone could combine the date from its gyroscopes（陀螺仪）with a built-in compass to allow you to track your indoor movements even without GPS.Research described it in the international Journal of Innovative Computing and Applications by Shahid Ayub of Lancaster University, and his colleagues there and at HW Communications, suggests that the embedded inertial sensors（嵌入式惯性传感器）in many smart phones have added the facility to be used for localization and tracking applications. The primary benefit of using smart phones is that no additional infrastructure would need to be installed for monitoring personnel movements in a wide variety of situations not least staff, equipment and inventory movements in warehouse facilities, shopping malls and factories. In contrast, other technology being proposed would require new equipment，such as RFID technologies.However, smart phones do not yet have the ability to pinpoint their location without recourse to the GPS system, which is not accessible indoors and has the added disadvantage of using up battery power very quickly even if it could be used. Inertial navigation only provides the necessary information relative to a specified starting point the team says. This is useful for anyone with a non-GPS smart phone who wishes to track the route they take when walking or jogging if they specify their starting point. The team suggests that pedestrians indoors could be positioned using a combination of the smart phone accelerometer（加速器）and an built-in digital compass, something that will become available in future smart phones.They have now investigated the potential of three different smart phone placement modes: idle, hand held and listening
