Studies show what common sense tells us: the more kids read, the better they read and the more pleasure they get out of reading。

Is there anything that you can do to encourage your children to read? It's helpful to know your child's reasons for not liking or wanting to read. These reasons can help you decide what will work best in motivating your child to discover or rediscover how much fun reading can be。
These are the reasons children frequently give for not reading:
It's boring. Don't despair if your children have this response to reading that is assigned at school. You can expose them to another kind of reading that is related to their interests.
I don't have time. Kids are busy. School, friends, sports, homework, television, and chores all compete for their time. (2)_________________________.
It's too hard. For some children, reading is a slow, difficult process. If your child is having a hard time reading, talk with his or her reading teacher. Ask about how you can find interesting books and materials written at a level that matches your child’s reading ability。
It's no fun. For some children, especially those who have difficulty reading, books cause anxiety. Even for children with strong reading skills, pressure from schools and home that emphasize reading for performance can make reading seem like a chore.
Our advice: take the pressure off reading so that your child can enjoy it。
If you or someone else in your family has had problems reading, there is a greater likelihood your children will experience these difficulties, too. Speak to a reading teacher if you have reason to suspect a learning problem. (3)_________________________.
