参考译文
一个简单的教导儿童辨音的计算机程序能显著提高他们的听力技能。这个游戏的创作者声称，它只用几个星期就能让儿童获得相当于两年的学习进展。
这款称为正音系统的游戏是由英国牛津大学的大卫·摩尔设计的，本来是针对有语言问题的儿童而设计的一个辅助手段，但他说他最近的试验也表明这个游戏可以帮助任何儿童。然而，其他专家则在没有进行一些独立试验前持保留意见。
正音系统的设计用以提高儿童区分不同音素------即建成语言大厦砖瓦的那些基本语音------的能力。摩尔是英国医学研究委员会听力研究所的负责人，他说，据估计有多达1/5的儿童对分辨某些语音有困难。
在游戏里，儿童必须分辨成对的音素，例如单词 “bit”里的 “i”的发音和 “bet”中 “e”的发音。游戏会给儿童先提供一个音素，后面紧跟着两个实例，然后问儿童哪一个与先给的音素相符。随着游戏的进行，例子中包含的音素逐渐变得越来越相似，使分辨他们的难度逐渐加大。
注解：
boost: verb: 推动，促进；提高，增加。boost sales增加销售量，boost skills:提高技能
equivalent: noun: 相等物，等价物; adj: 相等的
e.g. His reply is equivalent to a refusal. 他的回答等于是拒绝。
trial: 试验，审判，尝试，努力；
trail: 踪迹，痕迹；
trait: 显著的特点，特性；
trace: 痕迹，遗迹；
have problem with something/ have problem in doing something
potentially: 可能地，潜在地；
e.g. She’s potentially our best player, but she needs to practice much harder.
她有可能成为我们最好的球员，但她需要更加努力练习。
