Teaching children to read well from the start is the most important task of elementary schools. But relying on educators to approach this task correctly can be a great mistake. Many schools continue to employ instructional methods that have been proven ineffective. The staying power of the "look-say" or "whole-word" method of teaching beginning reading is perhaps the most flagrant example of this failure to instruct effectively.
The whole-word approach to reading stresses the meaning of words over the meaning of letters, thinking over decoding, developing a sight vocabulary of familiar words over developing the ability to unlock the pronunciation of unfamiliar words. It fits in with the self-directed, "learning how to learn" activities recommended by advocates(倡导者)of "open" classrooms and with the concept that children have to be developmentally ready to begin reading. Before 1963, no major publisher put out anything but these "Run-Spot-Run" readers.
However, in 1955, Rudolf Flesch
touched off
what has been called "the great debate" in beginning reading. In his best-seller Why Johnny Can’t Read, Flesch indicted(控诉)the nation’ s public schools for miseducating students by using the look-say method. He said—and more scholarly studies by Jeane Chall and Rovert Dykstra later confirmed—that another approach to beginning reading, founded on phonics(语音学), is far superior.
Systematic phonics first teaches children to associate letters and letter combinations with sounds; it then teaches them how to blend these sounds together to make words. Rather than building up a relatively limited vocabulary of memorized words, it imparts a code by which the pronunciations of the vast majority of the most common words in the English language can be learned. Phonics does not devalue the importance of thinking about the meaning of words and sentences; it simply recognizes that decoding is the logical and necessary first step. [br] One major difference between the look-say method of learning reading and the phonics method is______.
选项
A、look-say method is simpler
B、phonics method takes longer to learn
C、look-say method is easier to teach
D、phonics method gives readers access to far more words
答案
D
解析
细节题。文章在最后一段谈到了系统声学法(systematic phonics),并分析了这种教学法的好处.由该段的第二句话“Rather than building up a relatively limitedvocabulary of memorized words,it imparts a cod e by which the pronunciations of thevast majority of the most common words in the English language can be learned.”可知这种方法能使学习者获得更大的词汇量。故选项D正确。
