一项政府研究表明，家长每天给孩子读书、讲故事，可以让孩子入学后学习更好、表现更好。
Researchers at the Institute of Education found a correlation between mothers who believe it is important to teach their toddler the alphabet and to count and read to them regularly and the child's achievement at the age of five.
The government-commissioned study looked at teachers' assessment of a child's achievement after one year at school, and evaluated the cognitive abilities of just over 8,000 five-year-olds.
They also assessed each child's behaviour using a questionnaire.
研究人员还采用问卷调查的形式对孩子们的行为能力进行了评估。
The study focused on which factors are associated with achievement at the age of five, and took into account parental variables such as how much time is spent with the child reading, teaching the alphabet and counting.
It concluded: "Reading to the child every day and having a mother who thinks it is important to stimulate young children are positively associated with all cognitive outcomes and negatively with problem behaviour."
Children who were read to daily did better in the naming vocabulary cognitive test, which involved the children being shown a picture and asked to identify the object.
那些每天都有家长给讲故事的孩子们诸如看图识物等认知能力的测验中表现更佳。
Whereas, children who watch three or more hours of TV a day, on average, achieved lower scores on the tests.
反之，每天花三、四个小时看电视的孩子们，在各种测试中的成绩都相对偏低。
The findings echo the results of research by the universitie of Columbia, in the US, that found poor parenting meant children were ill-prepared for school.
