問題詳情：

    Teens and kids are reading a lot less for fun, according to a recent report.

Although the decline(下降) in the past ten years is very surprising for teen readers, some data(數據) in the report shows that reading is still a big part of many children’s lives.

According to the report, the number or teens who hardly read has gone up from 8 percent to 25 percent today. The report data shows that kids’ reading ability remains almost the same. However, the amount of reading time has fallen, from about an hour every day to half an hour.

As for children’s e-reading, the report mentions little about its effects. But it says that many parents choose to control the time spent on e-books, mainly because they are worried about the increased screen time. After all, it is important to protect their kids’ eyes.

The most helpful part in the report is parents’ effects on their children. It shows that parents are examples and important guides for them in reading. If parents read more and find more time to read with their children, it turns out that their children actually read more often.

As summer vacation arrives, parents might take this chance to step in, make a reading list and enjoy the pleasant family reading time.

【解析】

根據一份調查報告可知，現在的青少年閲讀量比以前少了許多，需要引起社會及家長的重視，需要營造閲讀的環境，同時家長也要做好示範作用，積極地參與到閲讀當中來。

38．推理判斷題。根據第三段According to the report, the number or teens who hardly read has gone up from 8 percent to 25 percent today. The report data shows that kids’ reading ability remains almost the same. However, the amount of reading time has fallen, from about an hour every day to half an hour根據這份報告，幾乎不識字的青少年人數已經從8%上升到今天的25%。報告數據顯示，孩子們的閲讀能力幾乎保持不變。然而，閲讀時間卻有所下降，從每天大約一小時減少到半小時，可以得出的結論是現在的青少年閲讀量比以前少了許多，故選A。

39．細節理解題。根據第四段But it says that many parents choose to control the time spent on e-books, mainly because they are worried about the increased screen time. After all, it is important to protect their kids’ eyes.但報告指出，許多家長選擇控制花在電子書上的時間，主要是因為他們擔心屏幕時間的增加，畢竟保護孩子的眼睛很重要。可知對孩子們的健康有害，故選C。

40．推理判斷題。根據倒數第二段It shows that parents are examples and important guides for them in reading. If parents read more and find more time to read with their children, it turns out that their children actually read more often.這説明家長是他們閲讀的榜樣和重要的指導者，如果家長多讀書，抽出更多的時間陪孩子閲讀，結果發現他們的孩子實際上閲讀的頻率更高。可知孩子經常閲讀的家長也會經常讀書，説明了家長的榜樣作用，可以得知家長要鼓勵自己的孩子多讀書，首先自己也要拿起課本，多讀書才行，故選B。

41．推理判斷題。根據As summer vacation arrives, parents might take this chance to step in, make a reading list and enjoy the pleasant family reading time.隨着暑假的到來，家長們不妨藉此機會介入，列一份讀書清單，享受家庭愉快的讀書時光。可知鼓勵家庭閲讀。故選B。
