A new study has fund that a child's reading speed can be imprved by simply increasing the space between letters within a piece f text. The research, led by Dr Steven Stagg f Anglia Ruskin University (ARU), examined the benefits f letter spacing and clured verlays (颜色标注) amng children.
Tw grups f children, dyslexic (有阅读障碍的) and nn­dyslexic children, were asked t read fur texts with either standard r extra­large letter spacing, bth with and withut a clured verlay. They were instructed t read the text ut lud while being recrded. The recrding was used t measure the number f errrs they made—specifically missed wrds, added wrds, wrng wrds, and prnunciatin—as well as the participants' reading time.
The study discvered that the text with increased space between letters prvided benefits fr bth grups. On average, the dyslexic grup shwed a 13% increase in reading speed, while the grup f nn­dyslexic children shwed a 5% increase. In additin t imprving reading speed, it als resulted in a significant decline in the number f wrds missed by the children with dyslexic. Hwever, the study fund that clured verlays had n significant impact n reading speed r the reductin f errrs fr either grup.
Dr Stagg, Senir Lecturer in Psychlgy at ARU, said, “We believe extra­large letter spacing wrks by reducing what is knwn as the ‘crwding effect’， which can hamper the recgnitin f letters and reduce reading speed.”
“Our findings strngly suggest that teachers can be cnfident that all children wuld be helped by increased letter spacing in reading materials，” Dr Stagg added. “While we fund that clured verlays prvided few benefits, we suggest children shuld be encuraged t use verlays if they find these help their reading. Clured verlays may nt increase reading speeds, but they may extend reading stamina (持久力). Previus research suggests their benefits may nt becme apparent if reading time is less than 10 minutes and the shrt reading duratin f the tests in ur study may have put clured verlays at a disadvantage.”

A. Illustrate, grup and reprt.
B. Read, instruct and measure.
C. Questin, assume and prve.

6．What des the underlined wrd “hamper” in Paragraph 4 prbably mean?
A. Obtain. B. Prevent.
C. Change. D. Invlve.
7．What can be inferred abut clured verlays frm Paragraph 5 ?
A. They might nt have been evaluated fairly.
B. They might nt be recmmended by experts.
C. They might wrk better in shrt reading.
D. They might have sme disadvantages.
