共用题干 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 U.S. has trouble
learnina to read .even when the students are good at other subjects.________(1)
Researchers from Yale University,U.S.,studied a group of children trom 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 coula 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 gone through
the special tutoring,and they continued to do well in reading tests.________(4)
However,some researchers still doubt the study.________(5) ________(4)
