Read With Greater Speed

Do you have difficulty reading in class? If so, a special reading program that helps match sounds with letters could speed up your brain.

At least one out of every five elementary school students in the US has trouble learning to read, even when the students are good at other subjects. （1）

Researchers from Yale University, US, studied a group of children from New York and Connecticut State. As part of the study, 37 struggling readers received special tutoring.

Every day, instructors worked with them on recognizing how written letters represent units of sound called phonemes （音素）. （2）

By the end of the school year, these children could read faster than before. They also made fewer mistakes, and understood more of what they read than they could earlier in the year.

As part of their study, the researchers used a special machine to take action photos of the students' brains.

（3） This is the same part of the brain that becomes active when good readers read. This activated brain area appears to include a structure that helps people recognize familiar written words quickly. In lower level readers, this structure remains inactive.

A year later, the brain structure was still working hard in the students who had gore through the special tutoring, and they continued to do well in reading tests （4）

However, some researchers still doubt the study. （5）

A Many adults are interested in matching sounds with letters

B The students also practiced reading aloud and spelling

C The biggest challenge for many of these kids, scientists say, is matching sounds with letters.

D Another group in the study who went through a more traditional reading program didn't show the same progress.

E The pictures showed an increase in activity in the back of the brain on the left side.

F They believe that reading without making any noise or linking words to sounds is more efficient.

【參考答案】1. C 2. B 3. E 4. D 5. F

1. C 這段話中有has trouble doing sth,美國的初中生（即使是成績很好的）在閱讀方面都有困難，那究竟是為什么呢？緊接著的一段話就開始將科學(xué)家們做實驗求證。我們要了解，英語文章一般都會將文章的中心放在前面，然后再論證。所以這里應(yīng)該是對問題的簡單定義或者說明。選項中只有C才符合意思。

2. B 這段話主要就是講實驗的具體情況，recognizing how written letters...看一下選項中與實驗具體內(nèi)容比較接近的就是B了，The students also practiced...這里的also恰好也符合意思。

3. E 這個空出現(xiàn)在一段話的開始，很可能就是承上啟下的句子，因此我們不僅要看后面的還要清楚前面的內(nèi)容，前段話提到使用一種特殊的儀器拍出了學(xué)生們大腦的動態(tài)圖片。a special machine to take action photos of the students' brains.后面的this 是same part of the brain，可見這里應(yīng)該是和photos相關(guān)的內(nèi)容。所以答案選E

4. D 這一段是講測試的一些進(jìn)展，其中有提到the students who had gore through the special tutoring，而另一部分人呢，很容易選出答案D,一般這種做實驗對比的都會將被試驗者分為兩類，通過對比才會有所發(fā)現(xiàn)。

5. F However, some researchers still doubt the study。一些研究者仍然懷疑這項研究。選項F恰好是他們的理由，所以為正確答案。
