However, a recent survey showed over 90% of parents are not clear what websites their children visit. I strongly believe that a training project should be started to help parents to improve their internet and computer skills. Then they can better monitor and guide their children.Providing training would get parents to pay more attention to their children's online activities. This is one advantage. If parents had a better understanding of the internet and websites, they would see the need to make sure that their children use it properly and responsibly.Providing training to parents would allow parents to help their children with their school work as well. These days, some homework of online courses needs to be done on computer. If parents have poor computer skills, they will be of little or no help with the homework. That can make parents very upset. Some people argue that it is good that students can work independently on computers.However, it is clear that students, especially young students often need this kind of home support.Improving parents* Internet and computer skills might also be a good way for parents to improve their relationships with their children. These days, children spend a lot of their free time on computers. If parents want to be a part of their free time, they need to see that playing on computers can be a fun family activity. Joining their children can help parents bridge the gap between them and their children.Most people believe that children need to be helped and guided to use the Internet in a proper and responsible way. Therefore, training is extremely important.()63. What does the underlined word "monitor in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Trust.B. Guide.C. Watch.D. Serve.()64. What does the passage tell us?A.
