Ⅱ.阅读理解
“Tweenager”is the new term being used in the UK to describe kids at either 8－12 or 10－13 years old.
More and more companies are beginning to create products and services for tweenagers.The Disney company sells music and film to tweenagers and their parents.You can get everything from branded lunchboxes and mobile phone covers, to monthly fan magazines and clothing.It's all about sales, which suggests that tweenagers must have more money, freedom and influence upon their parents than they've ever had before.
Most kids in the UK today get more pocket money than kids did a decade ago.Parents have more money to give their kids than previously, since parents are having fewer children.In addition, the divorce rate in the UK is continually rising and parents spend less time with their children than they used to, so many parents try to compensate by buying presents for their children.It's a bad habit for both parents and kids to get into, but parents are under constant pressure from commercial marketing and the pleas of their children.
UK kids today are very media and computer literate.A lot of kids have a TV, if not a computer, in their bedrooms.They have access to much more information about life and the world.They may have experienced a lot in life as well, since 24% of UK kids live in single-parent families, so people now say that “kids are getting older younger”．With such maturity at such a young age, it's no wonder tweenagers are able to influence their parents and have more freedom than previous generations.
UK tweenagers never used to be worried about spending money on clothes.That's changed.Now, they are much more fashion conscious and concerned about their image.Many tweenagers outgrow the bright colours and fashions of their tweenage years and go for something darker and more rebellious.
Surely none of the above is a good thing.The UK government is certainly concerned, and for
that reason has strict laws preventing companies from explicitly(明确地) marketing their products and services at children.
16．Kids today can get more money partly because ________.
A．parents always accompany their kids
B．parents have more expectation of kids
C．more and more parents divorce nowadays
D．kids know how to make money
17．Tweenagers have more freedom due to the following facts EXCEPT that ________.
A．their parents cannot influence them any more
B．they know more information than kids before
C．they become mature at a younger age
D．they have a lot of experience in life
18．Which is TRUE about kids in the past?
A．They used to have more money to spend.
B．They couldn't influence their parents.
C．They looked older than their age.
D．They preferred to wear brighter clothes.
19．What is the purpose of the passage?
A．To teach a new word “tweenager”．
B．To introduce a new phenomenon.
C．To urge parents to care about their kids.
D．To blame today's young people.
