Our study compares the intelligibility of French-speaking children with a cochlear implant (N = 13) and age-matched children with typical hearing (N = 13) in a narrative task. This contrasts with previous studies in which speech intelligibility of children with cochlear implants is most often tested using repetition or reading tasks. Languages other than English are seldom considered. Their productions were graded by naive and expert listeners. The results show that (1) children with CIs have lower intelligibility, (2) early implantation is a predictor of good intelligibility, and (3) late implantation after two years of age does not prevent the children from eventually reaching good intelligibility.
我们的研究比较了植入人工耳蜗的法语儿童（N=13）和年龄匹配的听力正常儿童（N=13）在叙事任务中的可理解度。这与之前的研究不同，之前的研究中，通常使用重复或阅读任务来测试植入人工耳蜗的儿童的言语可理解度。很少考虑英语以外的语言。他们的发音由天真的和专业的听众进行评分。结果表明：（1）植入人工耳蜗的儿童的可理解度较低；（2）早期植入是良好可理解度的预测因素；（3）2 岁以后的晚期植入并不妨碍儿童最终达到良好的可理解度。
