【解析】

本文是说明文。父母亲对孩子的好的健康习惯的养成要身体力行，父母的良好行为和健康习惯才是孩子最好的榜样。

1.根据空前一句Your children are watching you.你的孩子们一直在看着你的一言一行。可知父母是孩子的榜样，一言一行都会给孩子带来影响，所以D项“你所做出的行动会比你对他们所说的话更加有效”符合语境，故此处选D。

2.根据空后一句What happens during those early years can influence children for the rest of their lives.在早些年所发生的事情能够影响孩子们以后一辈子的生活。此处强调early years，也就是孩子还小的时候，G项中有关键句when they are young“当他们还小的时候”，完全匹配，此外，语境上“小时候形成的习惯对他们以后的生活会有很大的影响”，前后逻辑关系很紧密地联系起来了，故选G。

3.根据空后一句If you do that, your children are more likely to be enthusiastic about developing theirs.“如果你那样做的话，孩子们就更加有可能积极地培养他们的习惯”，可以找到关键词enthusiastic，再根据语境可知C“积极地培养自己的健康的习惯”符合前后句的逻辑关系，只有你培养了，孩子才会培养，故选C。

4.根据本段第一句taking care of your own physical health by eating fruits and vegetables.可知养成健康的习惯通过吃蔬菜和水果，那么本段主要讲的就是养成良好的饮食习惯，故选F。

5.根据后一句Computers, televisions and other forms of technology 指的是电脑、电视、以及其它形式的技术，可找到选项中A有关键词technology，再结合本段的描述可知，是让家长合理地使用，故A项意思完全匹配，选A。
