Questions 27～31 are based on the following passage. Going online is a favorite recreation for millions of American children. Almost 10 million ( 14 percent) of America's 69 million children are online. The Internet both entertains and educates children, however, there are some possible negative consequences for children who access kid-based Web sites. Advertising on kid-based Web sites has become both a rapidly growing market for consumer companies and a concern for parents.
