2 . A new study published on Monday in the journal Pediatrics points out that many YouTube channels are targeting young children with thinly veiled (掩饰的) ads for junk food.

The study analyzed over 400 YouTube videos featuring so-called kid influencers—children with large social media followings. The study found about 90 percent of the foods in the YouTube videos were unhealthy items decorated with fast food logos.

A spokeswoman for YouTube said the company has “invested significantly in the creation of the YouTube Kids app, a destination made specifically for kids to explore their imagination and curiosity on a range of topics, such as healthy habits.” She added, “We don’t allow paid promotional content and have clear guidelines restricting categories like food from advertising on the app.” However, studies show that young children are unable to distinguish between commercials and cartoons and are more likely to prefer unhealthy foods after seeing advertisements for them.

Experts say it is not just an advertising issue but a public health concern. Childhood obesity rates have skyrocketed in recent years: Nearly 20 percent of American children between the ages of2 and 19 are obese, up from 5.5 percent in the mid 1970s. Marie Bragg, an assistant professor of public health and nutrition was prompted to study the phenomenon after she noticed her young kids obsessively (着迷地) watching YouTube videos of “kidfluencers” like Ryan Kaii, the 9-year-old star of Ryan’s World, a YouTube channel with 27 million subscribers. The channel, run by Ryan’s parents, features thousands of videos of him excitedly reviewing new toys and games and going on fun trips to stores.

“These videos are unbelievably powerful,” said Josh Golin, the executive director of the Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood. “Very busy parents may take a look at them and think that it’s just a cute kid talking enthusiastically about some product and not realize that it’s often part of a deliberate strategy to get their children excited about toys, or in the case of this study, unhealthy food.”

3. What is Josh Golin’ attitude towards the kidinfluencers’ videos?

A．Positive.	B．Negative.
C．Neutral.	D．Chocolate bars.

3 . Devon—A three-year-old labradoodle named Digby has been praised after he saved a woman who was thinking of taking her own life on a bridge.

Digby is an Australian labradoodle, a type of dog, whose hypoallergenic (低致敏性的) coat is less likely to start allergic reactions in those he communicates with. He was hired by the fire service in 2018 not for his ability to remove bombs but to relieve stress and anxiety among firefighters who had attended unpleasant call-outs. He also works with vulnerable (脆弱的) people in the community as part of a “pets for therapy” programme.

So when the emergency services were called to a vulnerable woman on a motorway bridge, a firefighter had the bright idea to take Digby along.

“We were at the incident as part of a multi-agency response. Police negotiators were speaking with the woman but the situation was becoming increasingly worrying. When Digby arrived, the young woman immediately swung her head round to look, and smiled,” said a spokesman for Devon and Somerset fire service. “This got a conversation started. The woman was asked if she would like to come and meet Digby if she came back over the railings (金属栏杆), which we are pleased to say she did. It was Digby who eventually got her out of harm’s way.”

“The use of therapy dogs has been scientifically proven to help people who are exposed to challenging situations in their lives such as ill health or learning disability,” the spokesman added.

Digby has also been trained to go into schools and hospitals for Pets As Therapy charity. Other services have also started adopting therapy dogs to assist in various situations.
