Cache High School students are starting a new program in the hopes of increasing reading scores and student learning. Starting on Tuesday at 10 a.m., each class will devote 30 minutes a day to reading as a class or individually. The entire school will be reading “The Hunger Games” by Suzanne Collins. 美国卡什高中正在开展一项新项目以提高学生的阅读分数和学习能力。该项目于周二上午10点开启，每课时为三十分钟，学生们在这三十分钟里进行集体阅读或各自自由阅读书籍。全校将阅读苏珊·柯林斯的作品《饥饿游戏》。 The new reading program was developed after school principal Sheri Hansen saw the students’ reading scores from the beginning of the year. 学校校长谢里·汉森看到学生自年初以来的阅读课成绩之后，决定开展这样一个项目。 “Once I saw those, I started thinking about options out there that would help the most,” Hansen said. “I just decided that as a school, if we take a book that is interesting and discussed it and practiced reading, all the way around, it would help our reading; it would help our confidence in front of other people.” “当我看到学生们的成绩的时候，就开始设想怎么做才能更好的帮助学生们自我提高，” 汉森说。“我想到，如果校方能够选出一本学生们感兴趣的书籍，让学生们练习阅读、相互讨论，这不仅可以提高学生的阅读水平，也能提高学生们在其他人面前的自信。” |
