With the holiday season coming, many children are dreaming of the latest toys. This year, artificial intelligence (AI) toys that can talk and learn are becoming popular gifts. However, a new report asks an important question: Are these smart toys safe for kids
Teresa Murray is one of the report writers. She says some of these AI toys may talk about some topics that some parents might worry about. It could be how to find dangerous objects like matches and knives. And it could also be some topics that some parents don’t want their kids to hear about.
The report also shows that these toys listen and collect information. They can record kids’ voices, ask for their names and their dates of birth, and even talk about the kids’ likes and dislikes. Some AI toys even have facial recognition (面部识别) software, and can connect to the internet.
Murray points out that this is different from smartphones. On phones, parents can use parental controls (家长控制) to block (屏蔽) what they consider harmful. However, when you hand an AI toy to a child, you can’t control what it gets from the internet. Because the toys are online, kids could see almost anything on the web.
If a child wants an AI toy for a gift, what should a parent do Murray suggests that families should be careful. If you buy one, you should first test the toy for at least an hour. Try to ask the questions a child might ask, because safety systems can sometimes fail after a few minutes. Parents must know that these toys may collect nearly all private information and judge whether the hidden risk is acceptable.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

A．If they are safe for kids to use.
B．If they are popular with kids.

12. How does the writer show the possible risks of AI toys in Paragraph 2
A．By telling a story. B．By giving examples.
C．By asking questions. D．By comparing numbers.
13. What can some AI toys record
A．Pets’ toys. B．Teachers’ names. C．Parents’ birthdays. D．Children’s voices.
14. Which word can best express the writer’s feeling towards AI toys
A．Encouraged. B．Uninterested. C．Worried. D．Surprised.
15. What should parents do if they want to buy AI toys according to the last paragraph
A．Buy the latest model to keep the children safe.
