【4】growing

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了读书的好处。

【1】考查代词。句意：如今，很多年轻人似乎都把大量的闲暇时间花在看电视上或者玩电脑游戏上。此处their修饰名词短语free time，故填their。

【2】考查固定搭配。句意：当然，这些东西很有趣，但它们对开发他们的大脑没有多大帮助。contribute to…，有助于……，为固定搭配，故填to。

【3】考查副词。句意：许多人认为读书，尤其是读小说，是实现这一目标的更有效的方法。此处为状语，故填especially。

【4】考查形容词。句意：我们从阅读好故事中得到的最明显的好处是增加了词汇量。形容词作定语修饰名词vocabulary，故填growing。
