Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.
In today’s competitive world, parents try to give their children the best possible start in life. For this reason,
they want their children, often as young as ten months old to become familiar with computers. They seem to
think that if their children grow up with computers, they will be better equipped to face the challenges of the
future. No one has proved that computers make children more creative or more intelligent. The truth may be the
opposite. Educational psychologists claim that too much exposure to computers, especially for the very young,
may negatively affect normal brain development. Children gain valuable experience of the world from their
interaction with physical objects. Ten-month-old babies may benefit more from pumping their heads or putting
various objects in their mouths than they will from staring at eye-catching cartoons. A four-year-old child can
improve hand-eye coordination and understand cause and effect better by experimenting with a crayon than by
moving a cursor around a computer screen. So, as educational psychologists suggest, instead of government

funding for computer classes, it might be better to devote resources to music and art programs. It is ridiculous to
think that children will fall behind if they are not exposed to computers from an early age. Time is too precious to
spend with a “mouse”. Now is the time when they should be out there learning to ride a bike. There will be time
later on for them to start banging away at keyboards.

A. Because they are afraid their children will become competitive.
B. Because this is what all the other parents seem to do.
C. Because they want their children to be well-prepared for their future.
D. Because they believe their children will have difficulty learning to use one if they don’t start early.
37. Children who spend a lot of time on their computers ________________________.
A. do not necessarily make more progress than those who don’t
B. tend to like music and art more than those who don’t
C. will suffer from brain damage
D. tend to have more accidents than those who don’t
38. The writer implies that children learn better _______________.
A. after they have developed hand-eye coordination
B. when they use a computer
C. as they get older
D. when they hold and feel things around them

B. Parents should buy computers for their children.
C. Computers seriously harm children’s eyesight.
