Now more and more children seem to get lost in a "sea of digital technology". As they use digital technology too much, they are losing their ability to do simple things. They can't make toys themselves with hands or help Mum cook dinner. And worst of all, they seem to be losing interest in communicating with others.
"I have talked with a number of teachers. They care about the increasing number of children who can play with computers or smartphones, but have few or no skills to make things," said a teacher, Colin Kinney. "Many children can't communicate with other children but their parents are proud of their ability to use a computer or a smartphone."
Instead of playing with other children, more and more children are choosing to stay indoors and quietly play on a tablet on weekends and after school. How can a child grow up to be a very good artist if he doesn't learn how to use a paintbrush and develop his painting skill How can a child learn to make friends as he gets older if he doesn't learn to communicate with others at a young age
Digital technology can be used for good or bad. We can use a stone to break a window or build a house. We shouldn't blame the children. We should help them make right choices. It's necessary for children to know how to use digital technology in today's world, but what is more important, we should encourage them to develop social abilities, which will be useful to them when they grow up.
1. What's the worst problem in the first paragraph
A. Children can't make things themselves.
B. Children make too many friends online.
C. Children don't want to communicate with others.
D. Children don't like helping Mum cook meals at home.
2. According to Colin Kinney, which of the following is TRUE
A. Teachers don't notice that children have few skills to make things.
B. Many parents are very happy that their kids can use digital technology.
C. Many teachers don't care if children can play computers or tablets.
D. Some parents are worried that their kids use digital technology too much.
3. What does the underlined word "blame" mean in Chinese
A. 表扬
B. 原谅
C. 评价
D. 责怪
4. What does the writer mainly want to tell us
A. It's very important for children to have social skills.
B. It's very helpful for children to do some housework.
C. It's necessary for parents to learn to use digital technology.

IV. 任务型阅读
阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
After school,it's very difficult for Vislal Singh to make a choice. He knows he should really go on with his homework, but the internet is so attractive that he can't really pay much attention to his study.
"Students have always faced distractions and time-wastes,"writes Matt Richiel in The New York Times. He says that computers are a real challenge for students. They need to pay more attention to their learning.
Students say that their parents are worried about the distractions and try to control their computer time.But it is still difficult to manage the time of using computers.
Teachers at Woodside commonly think technology makes students difficult to concentrate in class,but they are divided over whether the computer and the internet are the solutions.
In Richiel's article,English teacher Marcia Blondel feels disappointed with her students. She isn't able to get them to read 30 pages of a book for homework. In order to solve this problem, she asks them to take part in a read-aloud of the book in class.
But as some teachers express their worries over students'digital diets, seeing it as a way, they are trying to use new technology in the classroom to draw the attention of these 21st-century students. The headmaster of Woodside High School, David Reilly, asks teachers to build websites to communicate with students. The students are allowed to use computers, smartphones or other new technology to interact with their teachers. It's convenient for them to search for some useful materials that they need before class. With the help of the new technology, the students have more chances to share their ideas with each other and spend less time on video games. So, they pay more attention to their study and they don't show up with bleary eyes any more. Mr Reilly also spends a large amount of money building up a multimedia centre and introduce new courses like the digital audio recording class.
"We try our best to take back their attention and make them concentrate on their study," he says. "To a degree, we're using technology to do it."
Some schools are looking to use the internet to encourage students to study.
According to Matt Richtel, what's a real challenge for students
