Read the passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each ofthe questions. In today's competitive world, what responsible parents would not want to give their children the best possible startin life? For this reason, many parents want their children, often as young as ten months old, to become familiar withcomputers. They seem to think that if their children grow up with computers, they will be better equipped to facethe challenges of the future. No one has proved that computers make children more creative or more intelligent. The truth may even be theopposite. Educational psychologists claim that too much exposure to computers, especially for the very young, maynegatively affect normal brain development. Children gain valuable experience of the world from their interactionwith physical objects. Ten-month-old babies may benefit more from bumping their heads or putting various objectsin their mouths than they will from staring at eye-catching cartoons. A four-year-old child can improve hand-eyecoordination and understand cause and effect better by experimenting with a crayon than by moving a cursoraround a computer screen. So, as educational psychologists suggest, instead of government funding going to moreand 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 istoo precious to spend with a "mouse". Now is the time when they should be out there learning to ride a bike. Therewill be time later on for them to start banging away at keyboards. What is TRUE according to the passage?
