Now more and more children seem to get lost in a "sea of digital technology(数字技术)". As they use digital technology too much, they are losing their 1 to do easy things. They can't make toys themselves with hands or help Mum cook dinner. And worst of all, they seem to become less 2 in talking with others.
"I have talked with a number of teachers. They are 3 about the growing numbers of young students who can only play with computers or smart phones, but have few or no skills to play with making things," said a teacher, Colin Kinney. Many students can't get on well with others, but their parents say proudly that their children can 4 a computer or a smart phone well.
Instead of playing with other children, more and more children are choosing to stay indoors and 5 play on a tablet(平板电脑) on weekends and after school. How can a child grow up to be a very good 6 if he doesn't learn how to use a paintbrush and develop his painting skill? How can a child learn to make friends as he gets older if he doesn't learn to 7 with others at a young age?
Digital technology can be used for good or bad. We can use a stone to either break a window or 8 a house. We shouldn't blame(责备) the children. We should help them make right choices. It is certainly 9 for children to know how to use digital technology in today's world. But what's more, we should 10 them to develop social(社交的) abilities. It will do them good when they grow up.
