living in a virtual world.They have lost touch with nature.But now 400 organizations in the UK，from playgroups to the National Health Service，are encouraging children to have some “wild time”They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside.Activities such as building dens(窝)，climbing trees，searching for nuts and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do.Even if they live in a city，they can go on adventures in the garden or the park.Children often need a helping hand from mum and dad.They need to be shown what to do and where to go.Andy Simpson from National Health Service says，“We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids development，independence and creativity，by giving wild time a go.”So despite the complicated world that young people grow up in now，it seems that going back to basics and experiencing “natures playground” is what modern children need.David Bond from Project Wild Thing says，“We need to make more space for wild time in childrens daily routine，freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted.”This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe，like me，its made you think about sticking on your boots，getting outdoors and reliving your childhood.Theres no age limit on enjoying yourself!【语篇解读】这是一篇议论文。文章鼓励孩子们远离电脑和电视，到户外尽情地玩耍。5What is the best title of the text?AWild time for childrenBBenefits of wild timeCMore space for children DAdventures of

can get your children to help at home.If you give your children the impression that they can never do anything quite right, then they will regard themselves as unfit or unable persons. Unless children believe they can succeed, they will never become totally independent.My daughter Carlas fifthgrade teacher made every child in her class feel special. When students received less than a perfect test score, she would point out what they had mastered and declared firmly they could learn what they had missed.You can use the same technique when you evaluate(评价)your childs work at home. Dont always scold and give lots of praise instead. Talk about what he has done right, not about what he hasnt done. If your child completes a difficult task, promise him a Sunday trip or a ball game with Dad.Learning is a process of trying and failing and trying and succeeding. If you teach your children not to fear a mistake or failure, they will learn faster and achieve success at last.【语篇解读】作为家长没有不“望子成龙”“望女成凤”的，但如何教育孩子呢？本文给出了很好的建议。9The writer thinks that _Athere is no way to get children to help at homeBthe more praise you give, the more responsible children will becomeCit is very difficult to make children responsible for houseworkDchildren can be forced to help with housework解析：细节理解题。根据第四段的第二句“Dont always scold and give lots of praise instead.”可知，鼓励(表扬)是教育孩子的最好方式。答案：B10The passage gives us a good suggestion about how to evaluate (评价) your childs work at home.
