Palo AltoCalifornia Switching off the television may help prevent children from getting fatter—even if they do not change their diet or increase the amount they exerciseUS researchers said last week.
A study of 192third and fourth gradersgenerally aged eight and nine found that children who cut the number of hours spent watching television gained nearly two pounds(0.91kg)less over a oneyear period than those who did not change their television diet.
The findings are important because they show that weight loss can only be the result of a reduction in television viewing and not any other activitysaid Thomas Robinsona pediatrician(科医生)at Stanford University.
American children spend an average of more than four hours per day watching television and videos or playing video gamesand rates of childhood being very fat have doubled over the past 20years Robinson said.
In the studypresented this week to the Pediatrician Academic societies annual meeting in San Franciscothe researchers persuaded about 100of the students to reduce their television viewing by onequarter to onethird.
Children watching fewer hours of television showed a significantly smaller increase in waist size and had less body fat than other students who continued their normal television viewingeven though neither group ate a special diet nor took part in any extra exercise.
One explanation for the weight loss could be the children unstuck to the television may simply have been moving around more than burning off caloriesRobinson said.
Another reason might be due to eating fewer meals in front of the television.Some studies have suggested that eating in front of the TV encourages people to eat more Robinson said.
13.The author tries to tell us in the first two paragraphs that _______ .
A.children will get fatter if they eat too much
B.children will get thinner if they eat less
C.children will get fatter if they spend less time watching TV
