READING- Raising the smartphone generation

E. Read the new research into how parents and children manage their digital habits.
Raising the smartphone generation

Parents worry about their children becoming addicted

to games, how digital devices will affect them mentally,
physically and socially as well as how they might impact
their privacy and security.

But parents are also responsible for the example they set
with their own digital habits. Most important, 95% of
parents try to encourage positive behaviors in their household by not allowing devices to
be taken to bed (55%), setting rules that apply not just to the kids but the whole family
(54%) and making dedicated, screen-free, device-free family time (51%). According to this
research, the amount of time parents spend on devices has a direct impact on the amount
of time their children do. In fact, the most important factor may well be how sensitive
parents are to their own performance as both role models and regulators.

For instance, the data reveals that parents who regularly use their devices during meals
are more likely to think they are better role models and less likely to place limitations on
their child’s usage. No matter where people are raising kids, they’re embracing new digital
behaviors in a meaningful way. And in every case, the digital habits of parents and children
are interlinked.

 READING - Covid-19: Do and Don’ts

E. Read the following article about covid-19.

The coronavirus

Coronaviruses were discovered in the 1960s. They

are a group of viruses that cause diseases in
mammals and birds. In humans, coronaviruses cause
respiratory tract infections that are typically mild,
such as the common cold. At the end of 2019, a new
type of coronavirus started spreading in China. This
type of coronavirus is often called 2019-nCoV, novel
coronavirus, or COVID-19.

It is believed that the virus was transmitted from animals to humans. Some of the first
cases were diagnosed in people who had visited a market selling live seafood and
animals. Unfortunately, when viruses are transmitted from animals to people, it can
take scientists a lot of time before they can develop a vaccine or medicines to cure it.

Some of the symptoms of the coronavirus are fever, cough, runny nose, sore throat,
headache, and trouble breathing. These symptoms are very much like those people
have with a cold or the flu. The virus can be more serious in some people, especially if
they are sick or have health problems. Some early reports reveal that children seem to
be getting coronavirus at much lower rates than adults. Doctors can relieve symptoms
by prescribing pain or fever medication. As far as antibiotics are concerned, they are
useless to treat coronavirus.

Retrieved from: myenglishpages

F. Read again and answer the following questions.

1. What causes coronaviruses?

2. Why does it take so long for scientists to develop a vaccine?

READING – COVID-19 changed my life

D. Read the text above and make a list about Sokhan´s life after and before covid-19
lockdown.

COVID-19 changed my life

Sokhan is a 17-year-old girl from Siem Reap province, Cambodia,
she shares how COVID-19 has impacted her family’s lives.
My ordinary life changed completely because of the COVID-19
pandemic. Before COVID-19, my family was dependent on my
father as the main breadwinner and income earner. He had to
work as a construction worker and me aside from being a grade
12 student, I only needed to take care of my younger siblings and
my house.
Income and education affected
My family and I had to face a wide range of challenges since COVID-19 hit Cambodia. Not only
my father´s job was suspended and we didn´t have our daily support for living, but my
education was also affected.
In 2021 I needed to take a national exam and distance learning was not a good alternative for
me because I had to rely on Facebook Messenger for studying. I found it difficult to fully
comprehend the lessons compared to being in schools where I could learn directly from the
teachers. Also, I felt under pressure because I lacked the time to study as much as I needed to,
because I had to do the housework and looked after my younger siblings.
Going out to work
Since my family’s economic condition was worse, I had to go to work in the Cambodia-Thai
border province to earn some income to support my family. At that time, I was concerned about
the well-being of my family since my father was staying at home. He did not really know how
to take care of my siblings.
Nowadays, I expect that life will go back to normal so I can go back to school. If the COVID-19
situation remains, I will have to stay here to work because we do not have money.
