Ques: Article: It seems that many parents have a lot to learn about what their children are doing online. According to a recent survey by the Symantec Corporation, which makes many kinds of security software for home and business computers, there's a "significant digital divide between parents and their kids." Parents of children under the age of 18 were asked to estimate how much time their kids spent online each week. The parents said about three hours a week on average. The kids - ages 8 to 17 - who took the survey said they're spending an average of seven hours online each week. "I really think that's due to the time they spend on their mobile phones and computers, when their parents don't even know they're online," says Symantec's Bill Rosenkrantz. "Remember, cell phones, PDAs and video game machines all make it possible to access the Internet. You don't have to sit in front of a computer screen." And what are the kids doing on the Web? "They're doing things like downloading music, they're going to social networking sites, they're actually shopping online when parents don't think they're doing those kinds of activities," says Rosenkrantz. "They're also, we think, doing some things with research papers and other kinds of activities with homework maybe where they're getting content online and they really shouldn't be." Nearly a quarter of the kids (23 percent) admit to doing things their parents would not approve. So how does a modern parent deal with this type of situation? "The first thing we strongly recommend is that parents spend time with their children online," Rosenkrantz says. "Sit down with them and understand what they're doing. Secondly, have a dialog about it. Have a dialog about what's an acceptable activity, what's an unacceptable activity, and set some ground rules -- time online, things you can and can't do. Really have those conversations. That's the most important." There are a lot of bad people on the Internet. That's why it's so important for parents to know what their kids are doing online. Question: We can learn from the passage that _ . Yes or no, is the answer "some kids surveyed may go against their parents' rules"?
Ans: No

Ques: Article: SOUTHPORT, ENGLAND--A British teaching union famous for strange ideas has supported proposal to employ dogs as classroom assistants. At the annual conference of the Professional Association of teachers in Southport, northwest of prefix = st1 /England, one person suggested properly trained dogs be able to keep order in primary schools. They can round up lost children and protect those who experience unfortunate "accidents". Wendy Dyble, aSheetlandIslandswoman who teaches children up to age seven, made it clear to her fellow friends that she was not "barking mad". They obviously believed her, supporting her idea by 16 votes to 13, with a total of 63 abstentions . He said big dogs could help round up children, keep them in line, lick up the milk they spill on the floor and provide the extra eyes that a teacher needs to keep order. "A big dog would also be helpful for breaking up fights and look for lost property, like gym shoes or dolls, " Dyble said at the conference. "The dog will also be useful in sniffing out smells that children do not own up to," she added. "It would be nice for the teacher not to have to go round sniffing each child to find the culprit ." The idea was greeted by the Dog Defense League but less so by bigger teaching unions. A spokesman for Education Secretary David Blunkett, who is blind, said his guide dog was always popular with pupils when he visited schools. The Professional Association of Teachers, with around 35,000 members, is the smallest teaching union in Britain. It has an honour for occasional strange ideas.
