of time to build more than 1,000 huge stone figures, called moat, for which the island
is most famous. On Easter Sunday, 1722. however, settlers from Holland moved in and
gave the island its name. Today, 2,000 people live on the Chilean territory(智力

Reading to dogs is an unusual way to help children improve their literacy skills
(读写能力), With their shining brown eyes, wagging tails, and unconditional love,
dogs can provide the nonjudg-mental listeners needed for a beginning reader to gain
confidence(自信心), according to Intermountain Therapy Animals (ITA) in Salt Lake
City. The group says it is the first program in the country to use dogs to help develop
literacy in children, with the introduction of Reading Education Assistance Dogs
(READ). The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea. “Literacy specialists
admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid
of reading aloud in a group, often have lower self-respect, and regard-reading as
a headache.” said Lisa Myton, manager of the children’s department.
Last November
the two groups started “Dog Day Afternoon” in the children’s department of the
main library. About 25 children attended each of the four Saturday-afternoon classes,
reading for half an hour. Those who attended three of the four classes received a
“pawgraphed” book at the last class.
The program was so successful that the library
plans to repeat it in April. According to Dana Thumpowsky, public relations manager.
59. What is mainly discussed in the text?
A. Children's reading difficulties.
B. Advantages of raising
dogs.
C. Service in a public library.
D. A special reading program.
60. Specialists use dogs to listen while children reading because they think___.
A. dogs are young children's best friends
B. children can play with dogs while reading
C. dogs can provide encouragement for shy children
D. children and dogs understand each other
61. By saying "The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea",the writer
means the library____.
A. uses dogs to attract children
B. accepts the idea put forward by IYA
C. has opened a children's department
D. has decided to train some dogs
