Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Bullying has become a major problem in schools. Bullying can be physical and/or psychological abuse, intimidation, or verbal abuse; the exclusion of some children in group activities is another form of bullying.

Research on violent television and films, video games, and music demonstrates that media vio-lence increases the likelihood of aggressive and violent behavior, both immediately and long-term. Parents and caregivers are critical in monitoring what reaches their children.
