A new study has found a positive correlation between how much television children watch and their parents’ stress levels. Why? Because the more television kids watch, the more they’re exposed to advertising; the more advertising they see, the more likely they are to insist on purchasing items when they go with their parents to the store. This could generate conflict if the parents refuse. All that, researchers say, can contribute to parents’ overall stress levels.
What’s the solution? Perhaps the most obvious is curtailing screen time. Commercial content is there for a reason to elicit purchasing behavior, so parents might want to shut off the TV. Researchers concede that this is easier said than done, so they suggest another option. Parents can change how they talk to their kids about purchases. The researchers suggest that parents seek input from their children on family purchasing decisions. They shouldn’t try to control all purchases. Instead, parents might tell their children things like, "I will listen to your advice on certain products or brands. " This type of communication, the researchers assert, can lead to children making fewer purchasing demands. That means less parents’ stress.
However, the protective effect of this kind of communication diminishes with greater exposure to television. This is because advertising aimed at children is especially persuasive. Advertisers use an assortment of tactics such as bright colors, happy music, and celebrity endorsements to appeal to children. Plus, children don’t have the cognitive ability to fully understand advertising’s intent. That makes them particularly vulnerable to advertisements.
9. What has the new study found about children watching television?
10. What are parents advised to do to reduce the impact of TV commercials?
11. What makes children particularly vulnerable to TV commercials?
选项
A、Inform children of the family’s financial situation.
B、Shift children’s attention to interesting activities.
C、Involve children in making purchasing decisions.
D、Help children understand advertising’s intent.
答案
C
解析
四个选项均是表示建议或要求的动词短语,判断题目询问某种建议或做法。文章在提出孩子们看多少电视与父母的压力水平之间存在正相关关系这个观点之后,开始探讨解决方案。减少孩子们看电视的时间比较难实现,所以研究人员提出了另一种选择:建议父母在家庭购买决定上征求孩子们的意见,故选项C正确,其中的involve children in是对文中seek input from their children的同义转述,purchasing decisions是文中原词。注意这里的input表示“投入资源(指时间、知识、思想等) ”,那seek input from their children意思是“征求孩子们的意见”。选项A的“家庭财务状况”和选项B的“有趣的活动”文中并未提及,故排除。文章结尾提到,孩子们还不具备完全理解广告意图的认知能力,选项D是根据此句设置的干扰项,故排除。
