Passage 1（Questions9-11）
· 听力原文（中英逐句对照）：
Increasedtelevision time for young children has long been linked with poorer progress insome areas of development. One possible way to counter those negative effectsis talking while watching the screen. As a new study suggests, the more parentsengaged in conversation with preschoolers during TV time, the more likely thosechildren were to have higher curiosity levels when they reached kindergarten.This was particularly true for children with socioeconomic disadvantages.
长期以来，幼儿看电视时间增加一直与某些发展领域的进展较差有关。抵消这些负面影响的一种可能方法是在看电视时交谈。一项新研究表明，父母在看电视时与学龄前儿童交谈越多，这些孩子进入幼儿园时好奇心水平越高的可能性就越大。这对社会经济地位较低的儿童尤其适用。
"Our findingsreinforce the importance of parent conversation to promote early childhooddevelopment and curiosity," said lead author Prachi Shah at University ofMichigan Health C.S. Mott Children's Hospital.
密歇根大学健康 C.S. 莫特儿童医院的首席作者普拉奇・沙阿表示：“我们的研究结果强调了父母交谈对促进幼儿发展和好奇心的重要性。”
Researchersassessed hours of daily television exposure and frequency of parent screen-timeconversation among 1,500 preschoolers, and then measured early childhoodcuriosity in kindergarten. The study specifically focused on curiosity levels,which are associated with enhanced learning and higher academic achievement inreading and math at kindergarten, and behavioral-developmental benefits,especially for children from families with lower socioeconomic status.
研究人员评估了 1500 名学龄前儿童每天看电视的时长和父母在屏幕时间交谈的频率，然后测量了他们在幼儿园的幼儿好奇心。该研究特别关注好奇心水平，这与幼儿园阶段阅读和数学学习能力的提升、学业成绩的提高以及行为发展益处相关，尤其是对社会经济地位较低家庭的儿童。
