On her first mrning in America last summer, my daughter went ut t explre her new neighbrhd alne, withut even telling my wife r me. Of curse we were wrried; we had just mved frm Berlin, and she was just 8. But when she came hme, we realized we had n reasn t panic. Beaming with pride, she tld us hw she had discvered the little park arund the crner, and had made friends with a few lcal dg wners.
When this stry cmes up in cnversatins with American friends, we usually meet with plite disbelief. Mst are hrrified by the idea that their children might ram(闲逛) arund withut adult supervisin(监管).
A study by the University f Califrnia has fund that American kids spend 90 percent f their free time at hme, ften in frnt f the TV r playing vide games. Such narrwing f children's wrld has happened acrss the develped wrld. But German parents are generally much mre accepting f letting children take sme risks.
“We are depriving(剥夺) them f pprtunities t learn hw t take cntrl f their wn lives,” writes Peter Gray, a research prfessr at Bstn Cllege. He argues that this increases the chance that they will suffer frm anxiety, depressin, and varius ther mental disrders, which have gne up dramatically in recent decades(十年).
I am n psychlgist like Prfessr Gray, but I knw I wn't be arund frever t prtect my girls frm the challenges life hlds in stre fr them. And by giving kids mre cntrl ver their lives, they learn t have mre cnfidence in their wn abilities.

As free as they make us, mbile phnes still need t stay clse t a pwer surce. Sn that may change with "green" pwer.
Three Chilean students gt the idea fr a plant-pwered device(装置) t charge（使……充电） their cellphnes, while sitting in their schl's utdr curtyard during a break frm exams, with dead mbile phnes. Then, ne f them had an "aha" mment.
“It ccurred t Camila t say abut plants,”said inventr Evelyn Aravena. “‘Why dn't yu have a scket, if there are s many plants? ’After that, we thught, ‘why dn't they have a charging utlet（插座）? Because there are s many plants and living things that have the ptential t prduce energy, why nt?’”
Their inventin—a small bilgical circuit called E-Kaia—uses the energy plants t prduce during phtsynthesis(光合作用). A plant uses nly a small part f that energy and the rest ges int the sil, and that's where the E-Kaia cllects it. The device plugs int the grund and then int yur phne.
"It's the mst amazing prject I've ever seen in my life, plain and simple. They brught this riginal mdel, and it wrked — and that's when it all changed, at least frm my persnal pint f view and I began t supprt them." said Maurici Cifuentes.
The device slved tw prblems fr the engineering students — they needed an idea fr a class prject, and an utlet t plug in their phnes.
"Lking fr a place t charge the ntebk, which had n pwer, and the mbile phnes, we weren't able t find anything because all the ther students were in the same state f madness trying t find a place t charge their devices," said Aravena.
But plants are everywhere, and the bi－circuit makes gd use f their excess(过多的) pwer.
The E-Kaia desn't carry much charge but it's pwerful enugh t cmpletely recharge a mbile phne in less than tw hurs.
The student inventrs have applied fr patents（专利） n their technlgy, and expect the E-Kaia t g n sale in the near future.
32. Hw culd the students get the "green" pwer idea?
A. By carrying ut an experiment. B. Just frm an ccasinal thught.
C. With the supprt f their prfessrs. D. Inspired by the infrmatin in a science bk.
33. The device cllects pwer by using _____________.
A. phtsynthesis B. a small bilgical circuit
C. energy plants D. the electricity stred in the device
34. What can we learn frm what Maurici Cifuentes said?
A. He intended t buy the patent. B. He invented the riginal device.
C. He shwed great interest in the device. D. He wanted t prduce the device in large numbers.
35. What might be the best title fr the passage?
A. A New Device t Change the Wrld
B. Green Pwer - A New and Ptential Surce
C. Chilean Students Find A Green Way t Charge Phnes
D. A New Device Invented by Chilean Students Will Be n Sale
