Passage 6 Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.  About twenty years ago, when the Internet was not so easily accessible, children used to spend much more time outdoors. Nowadays, however, children prefer to spend free time at home, watching more TV, playing computer games, and so on. Although this may also be more comfortable for parents, as they can watch and control their child more easily when at home, for a child’s sake, it is better to encourage him or her to play outdoors.  According to a new study held in Australia, teenagers who are regularly engaged in moderate-to-vigorous outdoor activity tend to have better health and easier social interactions than their peers who prefer to stay at home and play games. On average, the difference in time spent outdoors for these two groups was about 2.5 hours. Bamini Gopinath, a university professor, says that “Parents should be conscious of the fact that outdoor physical activity is beneficial to their child’s overall health and well-being, and should try to limit the time their child spends in front of the screen.”  Indeed, as it has been discovered, outdoor activity does not just generally improve the way a child feels; there are a number of specific benefits a child or teenager receives from it. In particular, such children build stronger bones and muscles. They tend to be more flexible with a better sense of balance and a more healthy weight. Playing outdoors helps teenagers avoid or reduce stress and fell more relaxed, have more confidence in themselves, boosts self-esteem, and allows them to keep in touch with old friends and also make new ones.  What is also important, playing outdoors helps children to develop skills connected to creativity and invention. The objects of the outdoors grant children with limitless possibilities for playing, and each time a child steps outside, these games change, or new ones are invented. Natural spaces and materials stimulate children’s limitless imagination and serve as the medium of inventiveness and creativity. Creative skills that a child develops when playing outside can help him or her in the future─for example, when there is a need to solve a non-standard task, or come up with a new idea.  Playing outside not only improves a child’s general physical and psycho-emotional condition, but makes him or her physically stronger, more flexible, and self-confident. It positively affects self-esteem, helps a child to maintain a healthy weight, and develop social contacts. Moreover, it contributes to the development of creative thinking and imagination. Therefore, parents should encourage their children to spend much more time outdoors.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

B  
Why Children Do Not Like Playing Outdoors
