A. The time that teenagers spend with digital media negatively impacts their ability to make sense of longer and more complex written material.
B. Teenagers are not developing the social skills they need to succeed in the world, as digital devices encourage them to spend time alone.
C. Fast-paced games and constantly updating social media makes it difficult for teenagers to be entertained by paper media, such as books and magazines.
D. The time that teenagers spend playing video games or on social media takes away from their commitment to their studies, negatively affecting their grades.
<u>The answer is </u><u>A</u>
Explanation:
The central idea is that teenagers spend less time reading for pleasure, which includes reading books, magazines, or newspapers and more time on the internet or social media. As a consequence, they do not develop critical thinking skills, do not reflect enough on topics, do not comprehend long texts, and find it hard to read them.
The text mentions other changes during the years but insists that the one with the more negative impact is the decrease in reading for pleasure.
The answer is D. A verb that starts with "to" is in an infinitive verb form. It should be noted that a verb in this form does not function as a verb instead it functions as another part of speech. Infinitives can function as adverbs, adjectives or as nouns.
It was almost like traveling back in time
Changing the sentence from a very long sentence into a short and choppy helps the suspense by not giving the reader a lot of information and making them really think and wonder.
For example:
"The stranger watched, a look in his eyes and this feeling spread throughout my body."
or
"There was a man watching, his blue eyes had this look in them that made me shiver with fear. His pale face held no emotion and made him seem as if he was just a corpse standing on his own."
The second one might sound better, yes, but the second one really makes you think and really builds the suspense.
"Who is this stranger? What does he look like? What feeling spread throughout their body?"
So instead of knowing a lot about this stranger, you know little to nothing and it really makes you want to know more, and definitely build the suspense.
