The report examined the effects of Reading First grants in 17 school districts across 12 states and one statewide program. The findings are for 2004 to 2006. A final report with an additional year of research is expected early next year.

该报告检查了“阅读优先”在12个州的17个学区以及一个全国性项目批准实施后的效果，检查期为2004年至2006年。附有外加一年研究的最终报告预计将于明年年初发布。

Another new report listed the books read most often last year by students in American schools. The Renaissance Learning company based the report on its reading programs used in many schools. Students read books and then take computer quizzes to see if they understood them. There are tests for more than 115,000 books.

另一份新报告列出了去年美国学校学生最常阅读的书籍。复兴学习公司根据它在许多学校实施的阅读计划来写出了该报告。学生们阅读书籍，然后通过电脑测试来检验他们对文章的理解程度。目前可用来测试的书籍有11.5万多本。

The book read most often by first graders was "Green Eggs and Ham" by Doctor (Seuss). In fourth grade the top book was, not surprisingly, "Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing" by Judy Blume.

一年级学生最常阅读的书是Seuss博士的《绿鸡蛋与火腿》。Judy Blume的《四年纪的故事》当仁不让成为四年级最受欢迎的书籍。

Others included John (Steinbeck's) "Of Mice and Men," "A Child Called It" by Dave Pelzer and "Holes" by Louis (Sachar). Also in the top 10 were "Night" by Elie (Wiesel), "The Outsiders" by S.E. Hinton and "Twilight" by Stephenie Miyer.

J.K. Rowling的三本《哈利波特》在9至12年级中则列入十大受欢迎书籍。不过最常阅读的书是Harper Lee所写的《杀死一只知更鸟》。其他的还有John Steinbeck的《人鼠之间》、Dave Pelzer的《它:一个男孩的名字》以及Louis Sachar的《别有洞天》。排名前十的还有Elie Wiesel的《夜》、S.E. Hinton的《局外人》以及Stephenie Miyer《黄昏》。
