In this age of Internet chat, videogames and reality television, there is no shortage of mindless activities to keep a child occupied. Yet, despite the competition, my 8-year-old daughter Rebecca wants to spend her leisure time writing short stories. She wants to enter one of her stories into a writing contest, a competition she won last yes.

A．s a writer I know about winning contest, and about losing them. I know what it is like to work hard on a story only to receive a rejection slip from the publisher. I also know the pressures of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous victories. What if she doesn’t win the contest again? That’s the strange thing about being a parent. So many of our own past scars and dashed hopes can surface.

 What do we learn from the first paragraph?

   A) Children do find lots of fun in many mindless activities.

   B) Rebecca is much too occupied to enjoy her leisure time.

   C) Rebecca draws on a lot of online materials for her writing.

   D) A lot of distractions compete for children’s time nowadays.
