Passage 1

The television set in the living room used to rule the entertainment choices of generations of British children. But that's no longer the case,at least not according to the latest annual survey of young people's media habits, earned out by the British media regulator, Ofcom.

(l)The survey found that 12 to 15 year-olds spent equal amounts of time watching TV and going online: average for each medium.(青少年用在看电视和上网的时间为平均每周务 17 小时。)(2)And asked which media device they most valued, teenagers rated their mobile phone above the family TV set. Smartphone ownership among teenagers was found to have doubled in just 12 months.(青少年更喜欢使用手机,智能手机用户的数量在一年内翻了一番。)The survey paints a picture of a digital younger generation, with even very young children confident about, and familiar with, a wide variety of digital devices. The survey says the take-up of digital technologies is faster among teenagers than the general population. It also comments on the popularity of text messaging, especially among girls. (3)Teenage girls typically send thirty or more text messages a day, 35 per cent more than boys do.(与男孩子相比,女孩子更喜欢发短信息。)Ofcom says the findings highlight the challenges parents face in keeping up with children's use of technology in order to protect them.
