increased from 53 minutes atage 12 months to more than 150 minutes at 3 years,according toan analysis by researchers at the NationalInstitutes of Health(NIH).By age 8,children were more likely to log the highest amount of screen time if they hadbeen in home-based children or were born to first-time mothers.“Our results indicate that screen habits begin early,”said Edwina Yeung,an investigator in National Instituteof Child Health and Human Development(NICHD).“This finding suggests that interventions(干涉)to reduce screentime could have a better chance of success if introduced early.”In the research,mothers of 4,000 children responded to questions on their kids media habits when theywere 12,18,24,30,and 36 months of age.TheAmericanAcademyof Pediatrics recommends avoiding digital media exposure for children under 18months of age,introducing children 18 to 24 months of age to screen media slowly,and limiting screen time to anhour a day for children from 2 to 5 years of age.In the current study,researchers found that 87%of the childrenhad screen time exceeding(超过)these recommendations.However,while screen time increased throughouttoddlerhood,by age 7 and 8,screen time fell to under 1.5 hours per day.The researchers believe this decreaserelates to time consumed by school-related activities.The study authors classified the children into two groups based on how much their average daily screen timeincreased from age 1 to age 3.The first group,73%of the total had the lowest increase,from an average of nearly51 minutes a day to nearly an hour and 47 minutes a day.The second group,27%of the total,had the highestincrease,from nearly 37 minutes of screen time a day to about 4 hours a day.Higher levels of parental educationwere associated with lower odds of inclusion in the second group.12.Who use mobile device longest according to the NIHs analysis?A.10-year-old born to first-time mothers.B.3-year-old children in low income families.C.8-year-old children in home-based childcare.D.1-year-old children with parents poorly educated.13.What does the research suggest according to Edwina?A.Parents should stop their children using media.B.Parents should limit the use of digital media themselves.C.Parents should reduce their childrens screen time earlier.D.Parents should avoid their children using digital media at infancy(婴儿期).14.Why does childrens screen time fall when they age 7 and 8?A.They are studying at school.B.They can control themselves.C.They are tired of using them.D.They are forbidden to use them.15.Which of the following may be the best
