Due to the global pandemic and migration to our new website, this issue was
delayed. Thank you for your patience.

This issue of RFL has six articles. The first four focus on English and the
last two deal with Chinese. In the first article, Elias Bensalem examines a
critical topic, foreign language reading anxiety. Next, Larissa Goulart
reports on her study of the patterns of lexico-grammatical complexity with
graded readers. In the third article, Min Gui, Yajie Shang and Xiao Chen
present the findings of their investigation of the impact of timed reading
on reading rates. The fourth article, by Jeff McQuillan, is concerned with
the learning of academic vocabulary through reading a popular adolescent
fiction series.

The final two investigated students learning to read in Chinese. Helen H.
Shen, Yi Zhou and Gengsong Gao explore types of oral reading miscues and
their relationship with silent reading comprehension among college-level
Chinese L2 learners. In the final article, Jing Zhou and Richard Day report
the results of their study of the effect of marginal glossing and word
frequency on the learning of six aspects of vocabulary knowledge through
reading by intermediate learners of Chinese as a foreign language in an
American public university.

Musa Nushi and Mohammad Hadi Fadaei review Newsela, an instructional
content tool that allows teachers to find articles with appropriate reading
levels for their students.

This issue concludes with the valuable October feature, Readings on L2
reading: Publications in other venues 2019–2020. This is edited by Shenika
Harris, Haley Dolosic, and David Balmaceda.
