Abstract

This paper aims to investigate the teenagers' interest in a wide range of reading materials. Extensive reading has been gaining its popularity globally. One major requirement for the success of extensive reading is the availability of a large amount of reading materials. The academic circle makes every effort to present high-quality reading materials to ESL and EFL learner. In an extensive reading program implemented in a Shanghai secondary school, an investigation was made into teenagers' reading interest. Results show a gap between the teenagers' preference and the experts', scholars' and publishers' standards.
