8 . Today, people spend a lot of time on mobile phone. We call the time we spend on TV, computers and mobile phones “screen (屏幕) time”.
The scientists in Australia ask 577,000 children how much time they spend on screens, homework and sports every day. They find about 68% of them spend more than two hours on screens.
Two hours of screen time a day is bad for children’s health. The study (研究) shows harm (伤害) starts after 75 minutes’ screen time for girls and 105 minutes for boys. Why? It is because ▲ . “In our study, 24% of boys spend an hour a day exercising, but only 14% of girls do that,” Dr Khan said.
So it is important for children to do sports and balance (平衡) their screen time. Mr. Smith has a “three-time” system (系统) for his son Peter—a “go time” for homework, a “slow time” to play computer games or talk with friends on the Internet, and a “green time” for exercise or outdoor games. “We need to get children outside and do exercise.
