Turn a book down and hold it up to a mirror. Now try to read the words. With the letters upside down, it’s very difficult to understand. Many people with dyslexia(阅读困难症) see words on the pages this way. Certain letters might look backwards or upside down or the words might seem to “jump” around.
Dyslexia is a condition that influences a person’s ability to read, write, spell, and listen. Someone with dyslexia has a hard time making the connection between the way letters look and the sounds of words. Though learning may be more difficult for kids with dyslexia, it doesn’t mean that they aren’t smart. It means they have trouble translating what they see, hear, or write into meaningful information.
So, what causes dyslexia? Scientists believe a trouble in the brain makes decoding(编译) languages difficult for some people. Although there is no cure for it, some doctors think that if caught early, dyslexia can be improved. One way to do this is by teaching readers to read out words and practise reading. Many dyslexia people discover their own ways, such as listening to books on tape or asking for more time to complete tests.
1. The writer asks us to read the book in the mirror to show________．
A. what words are like in our brains
B. how people with dyslexia read
C. why reading is useful for us
D. why people like reading a lot
2. Why is it hard for people with dyslexia to read and write correctly?
A. Because they are not smart.
B. Because they are not hard?working.
C. Because they have trouble hearing words.
D. Because they have trouble understanding information.
3. The underlined word “cure” means ________ in the passage.
A. 益处 B. 危害 C. 成因 D. 疗法
4. How can a person with dyslexia get better ability to read?
A. By reading more. B. By writing more.
C. By playing games. D. By taking medicine.
5. Where does the passage probably come from?
A. A science magazine. B. An advertisement.
C. A history book. D. Sports news.
