They can finally get away from tables and chairs and read in a fun way.

And listening to audio books also takes some pressure (压力) off his eyes. So Im all for it.”But there are quite a number of people who hold a different opinion. They say this could work with adults, but it might be a bad idea for teenagers. “People need self-control when listening to audio books, and we dont see it in teenagers,” they said. “How can we know that whatever it says in a book can get into their heads and stay there? How do we make sure they are learning something when they listen?”“We have been reading books in the old-fashioned way for thousands of years,” an elderly scholar said. “Why not start listening for a change?”32.

Parents dont have to worry about their childrens self-control.C. You will be forever free from health problems if you listen to audio books.D. Audio books make sure everything in a book can get into childrens heads and stay there.33. Which of the following is the best way to divide the passage?A. /B. /C. /D. /34. Which is most probably the elderly scholars opinion about ways of reading?A. Teenagers may not have self-control when listening to audio books.B. Maybe now it is the time to change our ways of reading by trying audio books.C. Parents need to make sure that teenagers are learning something whey they
