Ben and his family were on their first trip to the zoo. The main thing Ben wanted to do was feeding the parrots. His family hurried to the large birdcage. Most of the people were already inside. Ben was upset if the birds weren’t friendly. When he got inside the cage, the zoo guide was telling everyone the rules about how to feed the birds.
“First, you get some apple pieces. Then you stand and wait for the birds to fly to you.” The most important rule was to keep the apple pieces clean. If any of the pieces fell to the ground, you needed to throw it in one of the black bags.
Everyone got apple pieces, and then the door was opened. Many red and blue colored birds flew out to eat apples. Ben saw some bright green birds at the far end of the cage. The zoo guide said the green birds were new to the zoo. They hadn’t learned how to eat from people’s hands yet, but if people wanted to try to feed them, they could.
Ben wanted to feed the new birds. He walked over to the birds and held out his hand. A bird climbed onto his finger and ate. The other green birds watched it eating.

Smartphones, iPads and computers are keeping children and teenagers awake at night –– even when they’re not in use, according to a new research. The researchers say that technology devices (设备) are causing kids to sleep less and affecting the quality of their sleep. As a result, they can have trouble staying awake the next day. After studying children and teenagers aged 6 to 19, he researchers found a strong connection between the use of technology at bedtime and poor sleep. The reason is not just that kids are staying up too late with their devices. Using a computer can overstimulate (过度刺激) the mind, the researchers say. A smartphone or an iPad also sends out a light that affects the body’s natural timing. All these can lead to poor sleep quality. And many kids could be at risk. According to the research, 72% of all children and % of teenagers have at least one device in their sleep environment. Most of these devices are used near bedtime.
Many kids get less sleep on school nights than they should. According to the National Sleep Foundation, kids aged 6 to 13 should get between nine and eleven hours of sleep a night. Getting enough sleep is especially important for learning subjects like math and foreign languages.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) advises kids to stop looking at screens at least half an hour before bedtime. This helps their brains slow down and gets their bodies ready for sleep. The AAP says bedrooms should be “screen – free”.
If you can’t help picking up a technology device at bedtime, try these relaxing activities instead:
• Keep a diary: Writing your thoughts on paper can clear your mind. • Try a mind exercise: Close your eyes and count backward from 100.
• Just relax: Take some deep breaths to relax your mind.

( ) 28. At the end of the passage, the writer gives some advice on how to ______.

D. avoid using technology devices at bedtime ( ) 29. Which of the following is TRUE?

B. Kids aged 6 should get at least 11 hours of sleep a night.
