第7练　阅读理解＋七选五 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A A good deal of fascinating research has been done about the reading patterns of young people，and it is surprising to discover at what an early age children start expressing preferences for particular kinds of books.A recent report，which examined in detail the reading habits of primary school children，showed that even seven－year－old boys and girls have clear views about what they want to read.Girls，in general，read more，and far more girls than boys preferred reading stories.Boys were showing a taste for the more instant appeal of picture stories，or else books about their hobbies. These tastes continue unchanged until the children are teenagers.Apparently girls read more in general，but more fiction in particular.You could say that there are more opportunities for girls to read fiction：magazines encourage the fiction habit in girls in their early teens，and by their late teens they have probably moved on to the adult women’s magazines.Teenage boys tend to buy magazines about their hobbies：motorcycles，heavy transport and so on. Adult reading tastes are also the subject of research.Again the number of women who read for pleasure is considerably higher than the number of men.It seems that the majority of women still want love stories.There has also been some analysis of what men actually read.Apparently only 38 percent of men read anything，but 50 percent of what they read is fiction in the form of action－packed (情节起伏跌宕的) stories of space or gunmen. 【语篇解读】　研究表明，孩子的阅读习惯在很早就已形成且保持不变，直到他们长大成为青少年。 1．What did the recent research into children’s reading show?
