《哈利波特》第一至七册的词汇量统计和词频分析。
第一册76944个单词，
第二册85141个单词，

第四册190637个单词，
第五册257045个单词，

这套书第一第二册难度相当，就是儿童读物，三四册难度上升，567难度最高，相当于成人读物了。
这套书全部不重复单词有将近13000个。
也就是说这套书全部看完，词汇量应该达到10000以上。
目前大学四六级考试的词汇要求是6000左右。
所以说，这套书是非常值得一读的。

七本书，共108万个单词，普通高中生一个暑假根本完成不了的。
我家第一册读了整整一个月，第二册读了20天。
第三册词汇增多，现放慢阅读速度，每天10页，要求孩子记住单词和词组，现读到96页。每天阅读前先听一遍录音，听个大概，读完后再听几遍。
准备到小学毕业前完成七本的阅读，还有一年时间。

可以确定无疑的告诉你，整套哈利波特完整的看完，背完单词，熟悉文章内容，保管孩子高中英语名列前茅。
问题是没几个高中生能够读下来的。

贴一段哈利波特第三册中内容：
When Harry, Ron, and Hermione entered the Great Hall for breakfast the next day, the first thing they saw was Draco Malfoy, who seemed to be entertaining a large group of Slytherins with a very funny story. As they passed, Malfoy did a ridiculous impression of a swooning fit and there was a roar of laughter.
　　"Ignore him," said Hermione, who was right behind Harry. "Just ignore him, it's not worth it...."
　　"Hey, Potter!" shrieked Pansy Parkinson, a Slytherin girl with a face like a pug. "Potter! The dementors are coming, Potter! Woooooooooo!"
　　Harry dropped into a seat at the Gryffindor table, next to George Weasley.
　　"New third-year course schedules," said George, passing then, over. "What's up with you, Harry?"
　　"Malfoy," said Ron, sitting down on George's other side and glaring over at the Slytherin table.
　　George looked up in time to see Malfoy pretending to faint with terror again.
　　"That little git," he said calmly. "He wasn't so cocky last night when the dementors were down at our end of the train. Came runing into our compartment, didn't he, Fred?"
　　"Nearly wet himself," said Fred, with a contemptuous glance at Malfoy.
　　"I wasn't too happy myself," said George. "They're horrible things, those dementors...."
