Many children spend a lot of time watching or playing with electronic media-from televisions to video games, computers and other device(设备).
So, it is natural that parents should wonder about the time children spend looking at a TV or computer screen. American say “screen time” when they talk about any time children spend in front of an electronic device.
Perhaps parents can stop worrying so much about screen time, at least for older boys and girls. In October 2016, The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) listed several suggestions for parents and child care workers. Here are some of the suggestions.
● Avoid digital(数字的) media use in children younger than 18 to 24 months,
● For children aged 18 to 24 months, avoid letting the child watch media alone. And avoid using media as a way to comfort your child.
● Four children two to five years of age, allow one hour screen time on “high quality(质量) programming” a day and watch it with your child.
● For children aged 6 and older, don’t spend too much time using media. Also, make sure that screen time does not take the place of healthy sleep, exercising, doing homework, and other activities.
● Make sure to have media-free time together as a family, such as dinner or driving. Also make some areas of the home media-free. Turn off your child’s electronic devices an hour before bedtime.

C. Avoid letting them watch TV. D. Don’t worry about them.

Many people catch a cold in the spring and autumn. There are hundreds of kinds of viruses (病毒). You never know which one you will get, so there isn't a cure for each one.
When a virus attacks (攻击) your body, you may work hard to get rid of it. Blood rushes to your nose and brings congestion (充血) with it. You feel terrible because you can’t breathe well, but your body is actually “eating” the virus. Your temperature rises and you get a fever, but the heat of your body is killing the virus. You also have a runny nose to stop the virus from getting to your cells. You may feel miserable (痛苦的), but actually your body is trying to fight against the cold.
Different people have different remedies for colds. In the United States and some other countries, for example, people might eat chicken soup to feel better. Some people take hot baths and drink warm liquids. Other people take the medicine to stop the fever, congestion, and runny nose.
There is one interesting thing to note--some scientists say taking the medicine when you have a cold is actually bad for you. The virus stays in you longer because your body doesn't have a way to fight it or kill it. Bodies can do an amazing job on their own.
1. When you have nose congestion, you _________.
A. can't breathe well B. will have a fever C. can’t speak well D. will kill the virus
2. What does the underlined word “remedies” mean in Chinese
A. 症状 B. 疗法 C. 药物 D. 治愈
3. When they have a cold, people will do some things EXCEPT _________.
A. eating chicken soup B. taking hot baths
C. drinking warm liquids D. running for a long time
4. According to the scientists’ opinion, taking the medicine when you have a cold is ____ for you.
A. good B. bad C. helpful D. useful
