Question

Reading is the key to school success, and like any skill, it takes practice. A child learns to walk by practicing until he no longer has to think about how to put one foot in front of the other. An excellent sportsman practices until he can play quickly, correctly and without thinking.
Educators (教育家) call it "automaticity (自動性)”．
A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and finding the meaning of the words. With more and more practice, he stumbles less and less. As a result, he can read by the phrases and soon by sentences. With automaticity, he doesn't have to think about the meaning of words, so that he can give all his attention to the meaning of the text.
It can begin as early as first grade. In a recent study of children in Illinois schools, Alan Rossman of Northwestern University found that automatic readers in the first grade not only read almost three times as fast as the others, but also got better results in exams.
According to Rossman, the key to automaticity is the amount of time a child spends reading, not his IQ. Any child who spends at least 3.5 t0 4 hours a week reading books, magazines or newspapers will probably reach automaticity. It can happen if a child turns off TV just one night for reading at home.
You can test yourself by reading something new which is suitable for your level. If you read aloud with expression, with a sense of the meaning of the sentences, you probably are an automatic reader. If you read brokenly, one word at a time, without expression or meaning, you need more practice.

解析試題分析：閱讀是學校成功的關鍵，它也像技能一樣，需要大量的練習。教育家稱之為自動性，關鍵點是孩子們要花費時間去閱讀，任何一個孩子，每周都要花上至少3.5到4小時閱讀書籍，雜志或者報紙，才能達到這種自動性。
【小題1】細節(jié)理解題。問題：這句話的意思是什么？聯(lián)系原文：Reading is the key to school success句意：閱讀是學校成功的關鍵。聯(lián)系上下文得知，表示閱讀能提高學生的閱讀能力。故選D
【小題2】細節(jié)理解題。問題：為什么自動性學習，能讓學生讀的更快？聯(lián)系原文：With automaticity, he doesn't have to think about the meaning of words, so that he can give all his attention to the meaning of the text.句意：在不知不覺中，他沒有思考單詞的意思,，這樣他可以注意到全文的意義。明確答案為第二項。故選 B
【小題3】細節(jié)理解題。問題：在第二段中，劃線單詞在句中的意思是什么？聯(lián)第原文：A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and finding the meaning of the words. With more and more practice, he stumbles less and less.句意：試探著讓孩子們去閱讀信件，從而發(fā)現(xiàn)話語的含義。隨著越來越多的實踐，他結結巴巴地讀的情況越來越少。聯(lián)系句意為結結巴巴地讀。故選A
【小題4】細節(jié)理解題。問題：短文最佳的題目是什么？通過介紹如何將課文閱讀得好，并且流利，這需要大量的練習。結合選項第三項符合。故選C
考點：科普知識類短文閱讀。
