英文原文
Passage 3
短文3
Parents often hear that reading to their children is critical for supporting development, and the message is getting through to them. In fact, in the United States, a little over half of children between the ages of 3 and 5 were read to every day in 2007, and 83% of children in that age group in the same country were read to three or more times per week in 2012. This is good news, because reading to young children helps their language and brain development.
家長(zhǎng)們經(jīng)常聽(tīng)到,給孩子讀書(shū)對(duì)支持他們的成長(zhǎng)至關(guān)重要,并且這一信息正在被他們所接受。事實(shí)上,在美國(guó),2007年,3到5歲之間的孩子中,每天被讀書(shū)的孩子比例略高于一半,而到2012年,這個(gè)年齡段的孩子中,有83%每周至少被讀書(shū)三次。這是個(gè)好消息,因?yàn)榻o小孩子讀書(shū)有助于他們的語(yǔ)言和大腦發(fā)育。
In fact, recent research has found that both the quality and quantity of shared book reading and infancy predicted later childhood vocabulary and reading skills. In other words, the more time parents spend reading, the greater the developmental benefits in their four-year-old children. This is an important finding, but does it matter what books parents read?
事實(shí)上,最近的研究發(fā)現(xiàn),嬰幼兒時(shí)期親子共讀的質(zhì)量和數(shù)量可以預(yù)測(cè)孩子未來(lái)的詞匯量和閱讀能力。換句話說(shuō),父母花在閱讀上的時(shí)間越多,他們四歲孩子的發(fā)展收益就越大。這是一個(gè)重要的發(fā)現(xiàn),但是父母讀什么書(shū)重要嗎?
A new study has investigated this question. It followed infants across the second 6 months of life and found that when parents showed babies books that had faces or objects with specific labels, they learned more. This is in contrast to books that did not name images or books that had the same label under each image. Books that named different characters also promoted greater learning. So, what does this mean for parents? Not all books are created equal, so parents need to choose the books they share with their children with great care.
一項(xiàng)新的研究調(diào)查了這個(gè)問(wèn)題。該研究跟蹤了嬰兒出生后六個(gè)月的情況,發(fā)現(xiàn)當(dāng)父母給孩子看有具體標(biāo)簽的人臉或物體的書(shū)籍時(shí),孩子學(xué)到的東西更多。這與沒(méi)有給圖像命名或每張圖片下都有相同標(biāo)簽的書(shū)籍形成了對(duì)比。不同角色命名的書(shū)籍也能促進(jìn)孩子的學(xué)習(xí)。那么,這對(duì)父母來(lái)說(shuō)意味著什么呢?并不是所有的書(shū)都是相同的,所以父母在為孩子選擇共讀書(shū)籍時(shí)需要格外小心。
