It interferes with the ability to recognize words, 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 3 and for some readers to understand what they have read. Experts say dyslexia affects about five to ten percent of the population of the United States. Researchers have long known that people with dyslexia write or read words and letters backwards in the wrong order. But a new study shows that people with dyslexia may have trouble redirecting their attention between senses, from seeing something to hearing something. The study suggests something that might help dyslexic people learn more quickly—play video games. Vanessa Harrar of Britain's University of Oxford led the study. She reported the findings in the journal Current Biology. The study suggests that dyslexic people may have trouble moving quickly from what they read to what they hear. In the study, Doctor Harrar tested 17 people with dyslexia, and 19 others without reading problems. The volunteers were asked to push a button as quickly as possible when they heard a sound, saw a light or experienced both together. Doctor Harrar compared the speed of their reactions. She found that people with dyslexia were just as fast as the others when they saw only a picture or heard only a sound. But the Dyslexics had a slower reaction time when they heard a sound and saw a picture at the same time; this may have an effect on how dyslexic children are taught how to read. Doctor Harrar feels like playing video games could help dyslexic people shift from seeing to hearing more quickly. She adds that images in video games force the eyes to move and focus quickly. “Video game types of things pop out of here and there, they move your eyes around the screen quite quickly in response to things quite quickly, and the more you play a video game the faster you get that kind of thing. So, the video game is really training the attention system to move quickly，” said Harrar. When children learn the alphabet, they usually see the letter first and then hear the sound, or they see and hear the letter at the same time. The study shows that Dyslexics might learn more quickly if they hear the sound of a letter or word first before seeing it. 文章大意：文章介绍了一个新的研究结果，玩视频游戏可能帮助失读症的人，文章具体 介绍失读症的人的症状和通过玩视频游戏有什么改善。 5．According to Doctor Harrar's study, the dyslexic people have difficulty in __D__. A．recognizing words 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 4 B．reading words backwards C．writing letters in order D．shifting from seeing to hearing [解析] 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The study suggests that dyslexic people may have trouble moving quickly from what they read to what they hear.”和第五段第一 句中的“Doctor Harrar feels like playing action video games could help dyslexic people shift from seeing to hearing more quickly.”可知有阅读障碍的人在所看到的和 所听到的东西之间进行转换时有困难。 6．Which factor affects the way dyslexic children are taught to read？__C__ A．They react more slowly to a single picture or sound. B．They react as fast as others to a single picture or sound. C．It takes them longer to react to sounds and pictures together. D．It is difficult for them to understand before seeing the word. [解析] 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句中的“But the Dyslexics had a slower reaction time when they heard a sound and saw a picture at the same time; this may have an effect on how dyslexic children are taught how to read.”可知应选 C。 7．How does the author suggest Dyslexics are taught based on the research finding？ __A__ A．by putting hearing previous to seeing B．by training the attention on games C．by seeing first and then hearing later D．by moving the eyes around the screen [解析] 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“The study shows that Dyslexics might learn more quickly if they hear the sound of a letter or word first before seeing it.” 可知有阅读障碍的人在看到一个单词之前先听到它，他们反应会快一些，故选 A 项。 8．What can be the best title of the passage？__A__ A．Video Games Might Help Dyslexics B．Dyslexia Affects Attention between Senses C．Video Games Can Train the Attention System D．Dyslexics Might Learn Better through Sound [解析] 标题确定题。文章主要讲述了研究表明视频游戏能帮助有阅读障碍者学习，故 用 A 作为文章的标题最好。 Ⅱ.七选五 导学号 58082731 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 5 选项。 Relax during a job interview Few people actually like job interviewing.
