Some eye doctors say all the screen time has caused more children to have what they call computer vision syndrome (视力综合症).Nathan Wa
28、rford is an optometrist (配镜师) in the US. He says he has seen more children having eye problems. “More children come into my office because their parents have noticed that they have headaches or red eyes, or because their degree of short-sightedness appears to be increasing very fast and theyre worri
29、ed,” he said. Dr. Warford says part of the problem is that even if their eyes start to feel uncomfortable or they start to get a headache, some children dont tell their parents, because they dont want their games or the computer to be taken away. Another part of the problem is that people blink (眨眼睛
30、) less often when they look at the screen.A person who uses a computer or a digital product blinks about one third as much as we normally do in everyday life.

34、 children caused by using digital products.D Reading is the key to school success and, like any skill, it takes practice. A child learns to walk by practicing until he no longer has to think about how to put one foot in front of the other. An excellent sportsman practices until he can play quickly,
35、correctly and without thinking. Educators call it “automaticity(自动性)”. A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and finding the meaning of the words. With practice, he stumbles less and less, reading by the phrase(短语). With automaticity, he doesnt have to think about the meaning of words,
36、so he can give all his attention to the meaning of the text. It can begin as early as first grade. In a recent study of children in Illinois schools, Alan Rossman of Northwestern University found that automatic readers in the first grade not only read almost three times as fast as the others, but al
37、so got better results in exams.According to Rossman, the key to automaticity is the amount(数量) of time a child spends reading, not his IQ. Any child who spends at least 3.5 to 4 hours a week reading books, magazines or newspapers will probably reach automaticity. It can happen if a child turns off T
38、V just one night for reading at home. You can test yourself by reading something new which is suitable for your level. If you read aloud with expression, with a sense of the meaning of the sentences, you probably are an automatic reader. If you read brokenly, one word at a time, without expression o
39、r meaning, you need more practice.56.“Reading is the key to school success” means that reading . A. helps school develop faster B. is a key to a successful school C. helps students go to a key school D. can improve students learning results57. Children with “automaticity” can read faster because the
40、y . A. know how to read the words B. do not have to think while reading C. read by themselves without any help D. pay attention to the meaning of the text18. Rossman tells that any child who will possibly be an automatic reader. A. turns off TV one night 4 weeks B. reads books by the word quickly C.
41、 spends an hour reading every day D. gets the same grades as others in exams59. The underlined word “stumble” in the passage means “ ” in Chinese. A. 结结巴巴地读 B. 全神贯注地读 C. 心不在焉地读 D. 声情并茂地读60.The best title for the passage is “ ”.A. IQ Is the Key to the Automaticity B. TV Is Bad for Childrens ReadingC.
