In today's competitive world, what responsible parents would not want to give their children the best possible start in life? For this reason, many parents want their children, often as young as ten months old, to become familiar with computers. They seem to think that if their children grow up with computers, they will be better equipped to face the challenges of the future.
No one has proved that computers make children more creative or more intelligent. The truth may even be the opposite. Educational psychologists claim that too much exposure to computers, especially for the very young, may negatively affect normal brain development. Children gain valuable experience of the world from their interaction with physical objects. Ten-month-old babies may benefit more from bumping their heads or putting various objects in their mouths than they will from staring at eye-catching cartoons. A four-year-old child can improve hand-eye coordination and understand cause and effect better by experimenting with a crayon than by moving a cursor around a computer screen. So, as educational psychologists suggest, instead of government funding going to more and more computer classes, it might be better to devote resources to music and art programs.
It is ludicrous to think that children will fall behind if they are not exposed to computers from an early age. Time is too precious to spend with a "mouse". Now is the time when they should be out there learning to ride a bike. There will be time later on for them to start banging away at keyboards.
Children who spend a lot of time on their computers _____.
A.will suffer from brain damage
B.tend to have more accidents than those who do not
C.do not necessarily make more progress than those do not
D.tend to like music and art more than those who do not

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 35 to 42.
Star Wars is one of the most successful franchises in entertainment history. The idea of a science epic taking place in a fictional universe was created by George Lucas, a writer, producer and director. The first Star Wars film, which is called A New Hope, was released in 1977 and became a worldwide pop culture phenomenon, spawning five television series and an extensive collection of licensed books, comics, video games and other merchandise. It was succeeded by The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi in 1980 and 1983, respectively.
The scripts of Star Wars began with 14 pages of treatment for a space adventure film that Lucas drafted in 1973, inspired by various myths and legends. He described many of the characters in the film essentially identical to humans, since he wanted audiences to feel more relevant to the movies. The characters interact with implausible creatures of many different kinds from numerous planetary systems within the Star Wars galaxy. The world in the movie is portrayed as dirty and grimy, unlike many other science fiction and fantasy films that featured sleek and futuristic worlds. The Star Wars series, which consisted of boundless imagination of the director and highly advanced computer graphics to make it look real, was received with wild enthusiasm, and the public anticipated seeing the following episode.
After having completed Return of the Jedi, however, Lucas announced that he was putting Star Wars on indefinite hold until special effects technology had improved to his satisfaction. While the movie fans all around the world had to wait not knowing if there would another series or not, he kept his words stubbornly. Then, after seeing the effects results of Jurassic Park, Lucas finally decided that he would produce a trilogy of prequels in 1994. When the first prequel, The Phantom Menace was released in 1999, it became one of the biggest hits in movie history, topping Lucas's own box office records for the previous ones.
The Star Wars saga has had an important impact on modern society and has become part of global pop culture. There have been popular novels that parodied both the film and characters of Star Wars and many songs based on the Star Wars universe have been released. Also, most science fiction films have been influenced by and compared to Star Wars and many critics say that the visual and virtual effects that dominate today’s films would have never been created if it were not for Lucas's revolutionizing of the film industry with Star Wars.
What is the main idea of the passage?
A.George Lucas is the most successful movie writer, producer and director.
B.Star Wars is one of the most acclaimed movies and had a great influence on the society.
C.Star Wars deals with fantastic stories and involves a lot of planetary systems and creatures.
D.Star Wars contains space adventures inspired by many other classic films.
