11、eco-parenting isnt about buying ecologically-produced versions of products we think we may need. Its about discovering what we dont need.”I told the reporter about my daughter Sarahs simple wish for a pink balloon on her birthday, but she felt that things would inevitably change as Sarah grew up and
12、 adopted more materialistic desires.I agreed that Sarah may not always be interested in such simple gifts as balloons, but I couldnt agree that a birthday needs to be about materialistic desires.To me, a birthday is an opportunity to celebrate the life and the development of a person.Do we need to s
13、ee a table covered with gifts to know that our family and friends love us?

19、available.Some US experts said it would make little difference when it comes to helping people with the disorder, although others said it would bring attention to a disorder that people sometimes dont recognize.Many of us enjoy video games, but does playing our favorite game for a couple of hours ev
20、ery night mean were suffering from gaming disorder? Not according to the WHO.The symptoms listed by the WHO include a lack of control over gaming, treating gaming more seriously than other life interests and daily activities, and continuing to play games despite the negative consequences that playin
21、g them might have.“The behavior pattern is enough to result in significant damage to ones personal, family, or social life, the WHO said.Meanwhile, Douglas Gentile of Iowa State University has carried out influential research into the cause of gaming addiction in young people.“I and many others had
22、assumed that gaming is not really a problem but is a symptom of other problems,” he told NBC News. Many had thought it was simply a failure of self-control.To see if it was, Gentiles team studied a group of children who had been gaming for several years.“We found that when kids became addicted, thei
23、r anxiety increased and their grades decreased,” Gentile said.When kids were able to back off from gaming, their symptoms disappeared, he added.Gentile thinks medical organizations should pay attention to the WHOs proposal.“This isnt an issue of opinion; its an issue of science,” he said.“This is a
24、major scientific and medical organization. They dont do things lightly and without reason.”Dr Petros Levounis, chair of psychiatry (精神病学) at the New Jersey Medical School at Rutgers University, said that he hoped the WHO s proposal would lead to more research into obsessive behavior among all types

28、er.B. New research findings about gaming disorder.C. The benefits of defining gaming as a disease.D. The discussions about defining gaming disorder as a disease.D“Although we live in an era where everything seems to be available immediately, our study suggests that todays kids can delay gratificatio
29、n longer than children in the 1960s and 1980s,” said University of Minnesota psychologist Stephanie M. Carlson. “This finding stands in great contrast with the assumption by adults that todays children have less self-control than previous generations.”The original marshmallow (棉花糖) test conducted by
30、 researchers at Stanford University involved a series of experiments in which children aged between 3 and 5 years were offered one treat that they could eat immediately or a larger treat if they waited. Researchers then left the room to see how long the children would wait and watched from behind a
31、one-way mirror.Interestingly, todays adults thought that children nowadays would be more impulsive and less able to wait, Carlson found. “Our findings serve as an example of how our beliefs can be wrong and how its important to do research,” said co-author Yuichi Shoda, PhD at the University of Wash
32、ington.The researchers offered several possible explanations for why children in the 2000s waited longer than those in prior decades. They noted a statistically significant increase in IQ scores in the last several decades. Another explanation may be societys increased focus on the importance of ear
33、ly education, according to Carlson. The primary objective of preschool changed from largely custodial care (监护) to school readiness in the 1980s. Parenting also has changed in ways that help promote the development of executive function, such as being more supportive of childrens self-control, the r
34、esearchers noted.Walter Mischel of Columbia University, who co-authored this paper, noted that “while the results indicate that the childrens ability to delay is not weakened on the marshmallow test, the findings do not speak to their willingness to delay gratification when faced with the many tempt
35、ations now available in everyday life.”12. What is the adults assumption about todays children?A. They are not easy to please.B. They are less able to control themselves.C. They dont like things that are easy to get.D. They have different personalities from previous generations.13. What does the und
