The bedroom door opened and a light went on, signaling an end to nap time.The toddle(初學走路的嬰兒), sleepy-eyed, clambered to a swinging stand in his crib.He smiled, reached out to his father, and uttered what is fast becoming the cry of his generation: "iPhone!"

         Just as adults have a hard time putting down their iPhones, so the device is now the Toy of Choice for many 1-, 2- and 3-year-olds.The phenomenon is attracting the attention and concern of some childhood development specialists.

Natasha Sykes, a mother of two in Atlanta, remembers the first time her daughter, Kelsey, now 3 but then barely 2 years old, held her husband's iPhone."She pressed the button and it lit up.I just remember her eyes.It was like 'Whoa!' "The parents were charmed by their daughter's fascination.But then, said Ms.Sykes (herself a Black Berry user), "She got serious about the phone." Kelsey would ask for it.Then she'd cry for it."It was like she'd always want the phone," Ms.Sykes said.

Apple, the iPhone's designer and manufacturer, has built its success on machines so user-friendly that even technologically blinded adults can figure out how to work them, so it makes sense that sophisticated children would follow.Tap a picture on the screen and something happens.What could be more fun?

The sleepy-eyed toddler who called for the iPhone is one of hundreds of iPhone-loving toddlers whose parents are often proud of their offspring's ability to slide fat fingers across the gadget's screen and pull up photographs of their choice.

Many iPhone apps on the market are aimed directly at preschoolers, many of them labeled "educational," such as Toddler Teasers: Shapes, which asks the child to tap a circle or square or triangle; and Pocket Zoo, which streams live video of animals at zoos around the world.

Along with fears about dropping and damage, however, many parents sharing iPhones with their young ones feel guilty.They wonder whether it is indeed an educational tool, or a passive amusement like television.The American Academy of Pediatrics is continually reassessing its guidelines to address new forms of "screen time." Dr.Gwenn Schurgin O'Keeffe, a member of the academy's council, said, "We always try to throw in the latest technology, but the cellphone industry is becoming so complex that we always come back to the table and wonder- Should we have a specific guideline for them?"

Tovah P. Klein, the director of a research center for Toddler Development worries that fixation on the iPhone screen every time a child is out with parents will limit the child's ability to experience the wider world.

As with TV in earlier generations, the world is increasingly divided into those parents who do allow iPhone use and those who don't. A recent post on UrbanBaby.com, asked if anyone had found that their child was more interested in playing with their iPhone than with real toys. The Don't mothers said on the Website: "We don't let our toddler touch our iPhones ... it takes away from creative play." "Please ... just say no. It is not too hard to distract a toddler with, say ... a book."

Kathy Hirsh-Pasek, a psychology professor who specializes in early language development, sides with the Don'ts. Research shows that children learn best through activities that help them adapt to the particular situation at hand and interacting with a screen doesn't qualify, she said.

Still, Dr. Hirsh-Pasek, struck on a recent visit to New York City by how many parents were handing over their iPhones to their little children in the subway, said she understands the impulse (沖動). "This is a magical phone," she said. "I must admit I'm addicted to this phone."

1.The first paragraph in the passage intends to ______.

A.get us to know a cute sleepy-eyed child in a family

B.show us how harmful the iPhone is

C.lead us to the topic of the toddlers' iPhone-addict

D.explain how iPhone appeals to toddlers

Parenting the adolescent does take a different approach than parenting younger kids. Looking back it seemed relatively easy. They were born itty-bitty so you could take control usually to keep them safe from harm, to teach right from wrong and begin to equip them with problem solving and relationship skills. But hey, remember when they were about two or three years old and they began to toddle(蹣跚學步) off and test your limits? This was normal child development and you soon trusted that your child wouldn’t touch the stove, muck about in the flowerpots or bite the cat.

      Adolescence is kind of similar in process to the two or three year old testing their limits. In adolescence though the test is more towards social limits: who they can go out with, when, where and for how long. Unlike the young child though, adolescence is nerve-wracking(傷腦筋) because now they are truly out of sight, the stakes are higher and your didn’t raise your kid for 13 years plus to see them get into trouble now. Also unlike the young child, your teen is no longer itty-bitty and you can’t simply tell them what to do.

      Parenting the adolescent requires extreme trust, patience and letting them take responsibility for decisions even when the consequences are not favorable. They do need to learn what the mantle of responsibility means during adolescence so that as adults they are suitably equipped to then carry on responsibly. No practice no mastery. Taking responsibility takes practice and opportunity.

      Difficult as it may seem, the parenting style has to shift from being the boss to being a consultant. Now, no one is saying here that there aren’t any rules, but they are more flexible and more subject to negotiation. When you were the boss, you simply told your young child what to do and you expected them to follow your wishes. Now as a consultant you are more in an advisory position and must rely on the judgment of your teen to choose correctly.

 

41. Who are the intended readers of the passage?

A. Adolescents.                               B. Parents .  

C. Educators                                   D .Bosses

42. In the first paragraph, the author gives the example of two or three years old to show that ________.

   A. parenting adolescents is quite different from parenting younger kids.

   B. parenting younger kids seems relatively easy.

   C. there are still similarities between parenting adolescents and younger kids.

   D. it is difficult to take control of kids about two or three yours old.

43. In the second paragraph, the author mentions _____ differences between parenting adolescents and younger kids.

   A. 2.                     B. 3                    C. 5.                    D. 6

44. It can be inferred from the text that ______.

   A. parents should let adolescents take responsibility for decision if the result is not harmful.

   B. adults are more suitably equipped to carry on responsibly.

   C. parents should provide opportunity for teens to practice taking responsibility.

   D. the adolescent whose parents are bosses tends to follow their parents’ wishes.

45. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to ________.

   A. the change of parenting style.

   B. the change of the boss’s way to treat his child.

   C. the change from being the boss to being a consultant.

   D. the change of adolescents’ attitude toward their parents.
