圣诞好礼，独家干货：入读英国私立名校你准备好了么？初一阅读书单抢先看！| 合璧儿
以下文章选自《合璧儿》
腐国人民爱读书几乎已经成了地球人都知道的事实，为什么他们这么热爱阅读？他们的阅读习惯是怎么培养的？我们的孩子怎么能爱上阅读？这些问题直到小编看到12月12日牛津博士延平来合璧儿做择校讲座时，不吝分享给大家的一份老牌名校The Laytmer School，7年级(相当于国内的初一）的阅读书目与阅读指导时，心里才有了答案。看完之后，小编感到中英两国在母语阅读的学习和培养上真有很大的差距，无论是推荐书目范围，类型的广泛，还是如何阅读，如何提升阅读效果，引导孩子思考或是怎么更进一步帮助孩子迈出创造性阅读与写作的第一步，他们显然已经比我们思考过更多，走得更远，所以小编激动之余匆匆动笔翻译出来以飨读者。关于读书，关于写作，其实我们也可以这样来教给我们的孩子。（前方高能预警，篇幅很长，文末更有料）
当然，光文明精神还不行，还要野蛮体魄，所以今天的副稿也要读一读，学习一下运动怎么让孩子IQ更高！
