Scott Langteau has this message for kids: Spend less time playing video games.

    It’s a message that many a mom and dad have tried to impress upon many a youngster （and some not – so - youngsters） who spend perhaps a bit too much time with game controllers in hand.

But the 40-year-old Langteau isn’t a parent. He’s a veteran（老手） of the video game industry — one who played producer on three “Medal of Honor” games and co-founded his own game development company.

Langteau has just published a children’s book called “Sofa Boy,” which tells the story of a kid who spends too much time sitting on the couch with controller clutched in hand and the rather terrible consequences that follow.

It’s a fairy tale plucked straight from Langteau's own experiences as a lad with a fondness for video games and his own bouts with a bit of game addiction. But first, Langteau would like to make one thing clear: “I’m not saying that you shouldn’t play video games. I think video games are great. I think they do great things for kids.” Instead, Langteau says his book is all about a little something called “moderation（克制）.”

“It’s about being well rounded,” he says. “Just like with anything else, we all need to make sure that there’s a variety in what we do.”

Video gamers can be rather bad-tempered when it comes to accepting criticism about their favorite entertainment. And understandably so. After all, most people who go around talking about the dangers of playing video games tend to be outsiders— people who don’t play video games and certainly don’t understand that they can be a valuable and healthy form of entertainment. And understandably so. After all, most people who go around talking about the dangers of playing video games tend to be outsiders —people who don’t play video games and certainly don’t understand that they can be a valuable and healthy form of entertainment.

But Langteau and “Sofa Boy” seem to be in a unique position to deliver a message of gaming moderation that the young game masses might actually listen to. After all, this is a man who understands what it means to be a kid with a passion for games. His early experience has taught him a lesson.

Did you get a flu shot this year? For the first time, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the US is recommending that all children aged from 6 months to 18 years receive the flu vaccine．

Vaccines battle diseases caused by bacteria and viruses．A weakened form of the germ （微生物）is introduced into the body．The body makes special substances called antibodies to fight the germs．If the actual germs were to attack, the antibodies would fight it．

    Because there are many kinds of flu viruses, scientists must create a new vaccine  formula（方程式） each year．Researchers must make a prediction．

It is like forecasting the weather．Sometimes they are right on, and sometimes they are off．But even when the vaccine does not closely match circulating flu types, it can make the illness less serious．

   "The flu vaccine is not as effective as the polio（小兒麻痹癥）vaccine or the measles vaccine," says Dr William Schaffner of Vanderbilt University School of Medicine．"It's not a great vaccine, but it is quite a good vaccine．"

But a flu vaccine doesn't work for everyone．There are certain people who should be careful about taking it．

Because the vaccine is produced in eggs, those who are allergic（過(guò)敏的）to eggs should not take it．If you have a fever, you should wait until you recover．

Some people are afraid that they might get the flu from the flu shot．Scientists say that it is not possible, because the viruses in the flu shot are inactivated．But some minor side effects such as low-grade fever and body ache could occur．If they do, they begin soon after the shot and usually last only one to two days．

Did you know?

Smallpox was the first disease people tried to prevent by putting a virus into a healthy person．In 1796, English scientist Edward Jenner placed some infected material under a boy's skin．

1．By saying "It's not a great vaccine, but it is quite a good vaccine", the author means the flu vaccine               ． 

       A．is not as effective as the polio and measles vaccines

       B．is not effective, compared with the polio and measles vaccines

       C．does help to make illness less serious

       D．is quite good because it works for everyone

2．We can infer from the passage that               ．  

       A．those who are allergic to eggs should not take flu vaccine

       B．a(chǎn)ll the flu vaccines are not effective for everyone

       C．you should go to a doctor if you have a fever or body ache after taking the flu vaccine

       D．it is possible that some people might get the flu from the flu shot

3．It is not advisable for everyone to take flu vaccine because              ．  

       A．there are many kinds of virus

       B．the flu vaccine is not as effective as the polio and measles vaccines

       C．someone may be allergic to it

       D．it has some minor side-effects

4．What topic will be discussed in the following paragraph?

       A．What kind of people should be careful about taking smallpox vaccine．

       B．The side-effects of smallpox vaccine．

       C．The origin of the flu vaccine．

       D．How the smallpox vaccine worked on the boy．
