Mann simply stated the value of books, but some researchers have found evidence that people with books in

56、their homes really do gain a window on the world.A new study in the journal Social Science Research, published in October, suggests that people who grow up with more books are more likely to have educational advantages, and to achieve more in life, than people who grow up without them.

They were then given tests in literacy (读写能力), numeracy (计算能力) and information communication technology. The research shows that the number of books for each

58、 household varies greatly from country to country. For example, the number of books is 27 in Turkey, 143 in the UK and 218 in Estonia. But “the total effects of home library size on literacy are large everywhere”. The researchers found that people who had only lower levels of secondary education but

59、 had a large number of books at home got a similar score as university graduates who grew up with only a few books.
