8 . Children who spend more time reading with their parents have a greater chance of becoming better readers than those who don’t. With help from their parents, children can learn techniques to improve their reading skills.

“A lot of parents think after their child learns to read, they should stop reading to them,” Donna George said. “They are sadly mistaken.”

George offers her services to parents at the Title I Learning Centers. She said reading aloud to children may be the most valuable thing parents can do. “It is better for children to hear things at a high level than where they are,” George said. “Parents are their child’s first teacher.” Parents help their children build listening, phonics, comprehension and vocabulary skills when they read aloud to them.

Before parents can identify reading problems, they should escape the enemy—television and limit the time their children spend watching television. George suggested not allowing kids to have a TV in their bedrooms, setting a schedule of when kids can watch or keeping a list of how many programs children watch. Louise Jones said that while her 14-year-old daughter and 10-year-old son enjoy reading, the television sometimes becomes a distraction. So she tries to build the situation by suggesting books the entire family will enjoy reading together, like the Harry Potter series.

Parents who do not read themselves should not count on their children being enthusiastic about it. If parents would read to their children at least 15 minutes every day, children would not have so many problems in school. It is the parents’ job to help build that desire in their children, and of course to know what kind of books to read is also important.

1. According to George, reading aloud to children ______.

A．helps them correct mistakes

B．is helpful to their reading

C．is parents’ first duty to their children

D．can get children out of television’s attraction

2. The underlined word “distraction” (in Paragraph4) means something that can _____.

A．improve children’s reading skills

B．help children form the right habit of reading

C．make children interested in reading

D．stop children concentrating on reading

3. What is important according to the fourth paragraph?

A．Reading skills.	B．Reading speed.
C．Reading materials.	D．Reading environment.

4. The best title for the passage would be ______.

A．Children Spend More Time Reading with Parents

B．Parents Are Their Child’s First Teacher

C．How Parents Make Their Child a Better Reader

D．How to Improve Children’s Reading Ability
