19.Today,we are told,children don't spend enough time in the fresh air.Many of them are addicted to a screen either on a computer or a TV-they seem to be living in a virtual world.They have lost touqh 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,climbing trees,rummaging for conkers 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"nature's playground"is what modern children need.David Bond from Project Wild Thing says,"We need to make more space for wild time in children's 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,it's made you think about sticking on your boots,getting outdoors and reliving your childhood.There's no age limit on enjoying yourself!

分析 如今孩子們大都迷戀于電視或者電腦,而在戶外的時間越來越少,他們失去了與大自然親密接觸的機會.作者提出鼓勵孩子有戶外時間,去進行一些戶外活動,比如捉迷藏、爬樹等等,戶外時間對孩子的發展,獨立性和創造性都大有裨益.
解答 56.A 主旨大意題.文章開頭提出現在的兒童迷戀于電腦、電視而缺少足夠的戶外時間,然后在第二段提出"wild time"這一概念,由此展開行文,所以文章中心內容是關于wild time,所以A選項內容更能體現文章中心,故選A.
57.D 細節理解題.根據文章第二段作者提出的一些活動"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,climbing trees,rummaging for conkers and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do"可知,D項看電視不是作者鼓勵要做的事情,故選D.
58.B 推理判斷題.根據文章第三段Andy Simpson 所說的,"We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids'development,independence and creativity,by giving wild time a go"可知,戶外活動時間是對孩子們的成長有好處,故選B.
59.A 段落大意題.根據本段開頭的"it seems that going back to basics and experiencing"nature's playground"is what modern children need."可知,不管孩子成長的社會多么復雜,讓孩子們接近大自然都是現代兒童所需要的,然后用David Bond的話進一步來證明wild time的必要性,所以本段的內容是現代兒童需要戶外時間,故選A.
60.D 細節理解題.根據文章最后一段的"There's no age limit on enjoying yourself!"可知,享受戶外玩耍時間沒有年齡限制,故選D.
