When children are little, we make them read aloud, before the teacher and other children, so that

we can be sure they "know" all the words they are reading.　 This means that when they don't know a word, they are going to make a mistake, right in front of everyone.　 They may lose face in public. After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid (消除) them of their fear and dislike of books, and to get them to read oftener and more adventurously (冒险地).

One day soon after school had started, I said to them, "Now I would like you to read a lot of books this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. ! am not going to ask you questions to find out whether you understand the books or not.　 If you understand enough of a book to enjoy it and want to go on reading it, that's enough for me.　 Also I'm not going to ask you what words mean."

The children sat amazed and silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl, who had just come to us from a school where she had had a very hard time, looked at me for a long time after I had finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly and seriously,　 "Mr Holt, do you really mean that?" I said just as seriously, "I mean every word of it."

During the .spring she really surprised me.　 One day, she was reading Moby Dick (白鲸) at her desk.　 I said.　 "Don't you find parts of it rather heavy going?" She answered,　 "Oh, sure, but I just skip over (略过) those parts and go on to the next good part."

This is exactly what reading should be. an exciting, joyous adventure. Find something, dive into it, take the good parts, skip the bad parts, get what you can out of it, go on to something else.

When kids are young, we make them read aloud, before the teacher and other children, so that we can be sure they “understand” all the words they are reading. This means that when they don’t know a word, they are going to make a mistake, right in front of everyone. They may lose face in public. After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid　 them of their fear and dislike of books, and to get them to read oftener and more adventurously (冒险地).

One day soon after school had begun, I said to them, “Now I would like you to read a lot of books this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. I am not going to ask you　　 questions to find out if you understand the books. If you understand enough of a book to enjoy it and want to go on reading it, that’s enough. Also I’m not going to ask you what words mean.”

The children sat amazed and silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl, who had just come to us from a school where she had had a very hard time, looked at me for a long time after I had finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly and seriously, “Mr Holt, do you really mean that?” I said just as seriously, “I mean every word of it.” During the spring she really surprised me.

Almost two thirds of children want their parents to spend more time reading to them before they go to bed. Most of these kids like mom's storytelling more than dad’s. Researchers said they carried out a study that showed younger children aged 3－4 were most hungry for more stories. Over three quarters of them said they wished their parents to read to them more often. More than half of all children aged 3－8 said story time was their favorite pastime with their parents.

“The results of our research reveal the traditional activity of storytelling continues to be a powerful learning and emotional resource(资源)in children's lives，” said child psychologist Richard Wolfson.

Storytelling ranked before television or video games among pastimes for kids.82 percent of them said reading a story with their parents helped them sleep better. This finding came from a survey of 500 children aged 3－4 in Britain. According to the research，there are two ways for mothers to become the best storytellers. They can use funny voices to show different characters in a story. They can also make their own special sounds to keep the story interesting and attractive. When mom and dad are not at hand，celebrities will do: over 30 percent of children said they would like to hear a bedtime story from famous people like Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe. Other movie stars like Zac Efron，Miley Cyrus and Emma Watson are also welcomed by children.

“It can be very difficult for parents to find the time to read with their children. But these moments can help build close relationship between parents and children，and also can play an important part in their child's development，”said Wolfson.

1.The study shows that as four­year­old children get older，they ________．

A. depend more on stories from parents　　 B. become less thirsty for bedtime stories

A. use different sounds to make the story sound more real

B. invite other family members to read stories together

3.The word “celebrities” in the third paragraph refers to persons ________．

A. who love children very much　　 B. who are known about by many people
