A recent study by the Kaiser Family Foundation found that kids spend an average of 1 hour and 29 minutes online each day. Many kids like to use that time to chat with friends, play games or check e?mails.

There is a wealth of information to be found online. For example, if your family is going on vacation somewheredo a quick online search on the area before you even get in the car. “What's the background of the place; what's the history” says Russell. “I like to tell my kids, ‘Whenever you have a question, whenever you have a doubt, search it out.’”

You can hire a car for some 450,000 rupiah per day. This will help you have more to spare during your trip there.

Meet the “Tutor Kings and Queens”

“If you want to be a top tutor, it definitely helps if you are young and attractive. Students look at your appearance” said Kelly Mok, 26, a “tutor queen” at King's Glory, one of Hong Kong's largest tutorial establishments.

Richard Eng from Beacon College, a former secondary school teacher, is often credited with being the first of Hong Kong's “star tutors”. “In school all the teachers look the same, there's no excitement” he said.

The celebrity tutor phenomenon is a result of the huge growth in out?of?school tutoring in Asia. It is fuelled by highly pressured examination systems and ambitious parents wanting their children to secure places at top universities and high?status secondary schools.

In societies where success is_equated_with good exam results, parental anxiety converts into a “steady stream of revenue(收入)” for tutoring establishments, according to a study by the Asian Development Bank (ADB)

The tutoring industry, or “shadow education” as the ADB calls it, has become very widespread in Asia, fed by the growth in universities and the rising proportion of school leavers aiming for university. Hong Kong University's professor Mark Bray, one of the authors of the ADB study, said a staggering 72% of final?year school students in Hong Kong now go to private tutors.

It's not just Hong Kong. Tutoring has “spread and intensified(强化) in Asia and become more commercialized” said Professor Bray. In South Korea, 90% of primary school children attend such classes. In China, New Oriental Education and Technology has grown to become one of the largest tutoring schools in Asia with around 2.4 million students this year. In South Korea, Thailand, Sri Lanka and India, tutorial schools use star tutors to attract even more students.

1.According to Kelly Mok, tutors ________.

Ahave a lot in common with school teachers

Bbenefit much from their appearances

Cbecome more and more popular in the world

Dhave much more pressure than in the past

2.Who is probably a “tutor king” in Hong Kong?

3.What Professor Bray says in this passage means that ________.

Athe number of school leavers is increasing

Dmore and more students in Asia go to private tutors
