Как читать файл внутри zip-файла как текст, а не байты?

A simple program for reading a CSV file inside a zip file works in Python 2.7, but not in Python 3.2

$ cat test_zip_file_py3k.py 
import csv, sys, zipfile

zip_file    = zipfile.ZipFile(sys.argv[1])
items_file  = zip_file.open('items.csv', 'rU')

for row in csv.DictReader(items_file):
    pass

$ python2.7 test_zip_file_py3k.py ~/data.zip

$ python3.2 test_zip_file_py3k.py ~/data.zip
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test_zip_file_py3k.py", line 8, in <module>
    for row in csv.DictReader(items_file):
  File "/home/msabramo/run/lib/python3.2/csv.py", line 109, in __next__
    self.fieldnames
  File "/home/msabramo/run/lib/python3.2/csv.py", line 96, in fieldnames
    self._fieldnames = next(self.reader)
_csv.Error: iterator should return strings, not bytes (did you open the file 
in text mode?)

So the csv module in Python 3 wants to see a text file, but zipfile.ZipFile.open returns a zipfile.ZipExtFile that is always treated as binary data.

How does one make this work in Python 3?
