Almost two-thirds of children want their parents to spend more time reading to them before bed, and most prefer Mum’s storytelling to Dad’s, researchers said. They conducted a study that showed (7) younger children aged 3-4 were most hungry for more stories, with over three-quarters saying they wished their parents 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 confirm the traditional activity of storytelling continues to be a powerful learning and emotional resource in children’s lives,” said child psychologist Richard Wolfsan. Storytelling ranked higher than television or video games among pastimes for kids, and 82 percent said reading a story with their parents helped them sleep better, according to the survey of 500 children aged 3-8. (8) The best storytellers were mothers who used funny voices to illustrate different characters or made their own special sound effects to keep the story moving, researchers said. (9) When Mum and Dad are not at hand, well-known people will do: over 30 percent of children said they would like to hear a bedtime story from Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliff, with teen idols Zac Efron, Miley Cyrus and Emma Watson trailing close behind. “It can be very difficult for parents to find the time to read with their children, but (10) these moments can help build strong bonds and play an important part in their children’s development,” said Wolfsan.
7. What does the research show?
8. Why do children like Mum’s storytelling most?
9. Besides Mum and Dad, who is the children’s second choice for storytelling?
10. According to the passage, what advantage can storytelling offer?
选项
A、Their grandparents.
B、Television hosts.
C、Famous people.
D、Radio speakers.
答案
C
解析
事实细节题。问题是除了父母,小孩子最喜欢听什么人讲故事。“When Mum and Dad are not at hand, well-known people will do”表明当父母不在身边时,孩子们会选择名人给他们讲故事。do 在这里作代动词,意为“可以成为讲故事的人” 。well-known 与 famous 意思相同,意为“著名的” 。故 C 项表述正确。
