A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and finding the meaning of the words. With practice, hestumblesless and less, reading by the phrase (短语). With automaticity, he doesn’t have to think about the meaning of words, so 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 (数量) of time a child spends reading , not his IQ. Any child who spends at least 3.5 to 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 (适合) 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.

I wonder if you will ever really understand me. I ________your anger at my grades today, but Mama, I try, I really do. I think there must be something wrong with me.

I want you to be as________of me as John’s mom is when he tops in the class, or Sherry’s ma is when she wins the first prize in singing. I wish I were the kind of son you could be proud of. But sadly I am not.

But, Mama, when you say I will never be a “good” person, I don’t know what you ________. Is it only good ________that make a person good or bad? Miss White says that I have beauty of ________, but I wonder why you never notice it. I wonder how many times you noticed me helping an old neighbor cross the street, or slipping my week’s pocket money to the old beggar down the street. I thought I was doing ________to be proud of, but when I came running home to tell you about it, you just curtly nodded your head and told me to go to do my homework. I guess what I did wasn’t something very great.

Mama, I love you and wish you could be proud of me. Proud of what I am. Proud of the little things I achieve. I have no one other than you, and I want to make you happy. But I guess I am not________ enough for that. Watering grandpa’s garden every week and buying groceries for grandma isn’t as ________as doing math. But, Mama, I wish you could understand, they’re so old and frail, I couldn’t resist offering to help them a bit.

Your sad son
