intellectual(智力的)benefits with them far into adulthood“The long-term influence of reading for pleasure on vocabulary that we have identified may be because the frequent childhood readers continued to read throughout their twenties and thirties，”says lead author Professor Alice Sullivan at the IOEResearchers followed 9,400 British people from the age of 10 up to 42Their vocabulary was tested using a simple quiz which asked participants to match up words to the most similar meaningThose who had regularly read for pleasure at 10 scored 67 percent in the age 42 vocabulary test，while infrequent childhood readers scored only 51 percentThe IOE study also found that what people chose to read as adults mattered as much as how often they readThe greatest improvements between ages 16 and 42 were made by readers ofelegantfictions such as Booker Prize winning novelsAnd they found that readers of quality newspapers，including online versions，made more progress in vocabulary throughout their lives than those who read tabloidsIn addition，generally speaking，the adult readers who especially read broadsheets(宽幅 印刷品)scored 76 percent on the assessment compared to 57 percent amongst those who
