When you are learning English， listening， speaking and writing are important， but reading can also be very helpful. Here are some good reading tips.

【1】 . Read something that you can understand. If you need to stop every three words to use a dictionary， it is not interesting.

Try to increase the number of your new words. If there are four or five new words on a page， write them in your notebook.  【2】 . Instead， try to guess their meaning as you read： First mark them with a pen. Next come back to look them up in a dictionary.   【3】 . Finally spend some time remembering them.

Try to read regularly（定期地）.   【4】  . Fifteen minutes every day is better than two hours every Sunday. Fix a time to read and keep to it. You could read for fifteen minutes when you go to bed， or when you get up or at lunchtime.

Read what interests you. Choose a book or a magazine about a subject that you like， because you are going to spend time and money reading it.   【5】 . You can also read newspapers.

25、   Give yourself a test. Which way is the wind blowing? How many kinds of wildflowers can be seen from your front door? If your awareness is as sharp as it could be, you’ll have no trouble answering these questions.

Most of us observed much more as children than we do as adults. A child’s day is filled with fascination, newness and wonder. Curiosity gave us all a natural awareness. But differences that were sharp to us as children become unclear; we are numb (麻木的) to new stimulation (刺激), new ideas. Relearning the art of seeing the world around us is quite simple, although it takes practice and requires breaking some bad habits.

The first step in awakening senses is to stop predicting what we are going to see and feel before it happens. This blocks awareness. One chilly night when I was hiking in the Rocky Mountains with some students, I mentioned that we were going to cross a mountain stream. The students began complaining about how cold it would be. We reached the stream, and they unwillingly walked ahead. They were almost knee-deep when they realized it was a hot spring. Later they all admitted they’d felt cold water at first.

Another block to awareness is the obsession (痴迷) with naming things. I saw bird watchers who spotted a bird, immediately looked it up in field guides, and said, a “ruby-crowned kinglet (红冠戴菊鸟) “ and checked it off. They no longer paid attention to the bird and never learned what it was doing.

The pressures of “time” and “destination” are further blocks to awareness. I came across many hikers who were heading to a distant camp-ground with just enough time to get there before dark. They seldom walked around a bit, to take a moment to see what’s around them. I asked them what they’d seen. “Oh, a few birds,” they said. They seemed to only pay attention to their destinations.

Nature seems to unfold to people who watch and wait. Next time you take a walk, no matter where it is, take in all the sights, sounds and sensations. Think in this way and you will see a new world in your life.

【1】According to Paragraph 2, compared with adults, children are more ________.

A.anxious to do wonders B.eager to explore the world around them

C.likely to develop unpleasant habits D.understanding to others' feelings

【2】What can we learn from Paragraph 3?

A.To admit mistakes honestly. B.To stop complaining all the time.

C.To follow the teacher's advice. D.To avoid jumping to conclusions.

【3】Why do the hikers take no notice of the surroundings during the journey?

A.They focus on arriving at the camp in time.

B.The natural beauty isn't attractive to them.

C.The forest in the dark is dangerous for them.

D.They are keen to see rare birds at the destination.

【4】In the passage, the author wants to tell us we should __________.

A.open our mind to new things and ideas

B.get rid of some bad habits in our daily life

C.use our senses to feel the wonders of the world

D.try our best to protect nature

26、   Mike Myers is a teacher at Chauncey Rose High School in Terre Haute, Indiana. Last year, he taught his students about the world’s rain forests. They learned that rain forests are important because the plants and animals of the rain forest give us food, wood, and medicine.

Destruction of the world’s rain forests is a serious problem. Unluckily, rain forests are disappearing at a rate of 80 acres (英亩) per minute! As part of a class project, Myers’ students bought three acres of rain forest in Central America. They paid $25 per acre. The students hope that the land they bought will be protected and not destroyed. The students became so interested in rain forests that they decided to get a closer look at a real rain forest.

So this June, Myers and four of his students took a boat ride down a river. They saw alligators and crocodiles. In the middle of the week, a guide took Myers and his students into the rain forest. “The monkeys were not happy that we were in their forest. They broke small branches off the trees and threw them at us,” one of the students said, “It was a great learning experience for all us,” said Myers.

Each student chose something specific about Costa Rica to study involving the plants, animals, food, and culture. During the last few days the group had time to do fun activities. They went whitewater rafting and horseback riding, and visited Costa Rica’s active volcano.

Myers hopes to make the trip every year with a different group of kids.

Myers also talked about the big disaster about the rain forest fires in the Amazon—the lungs of the Earth. The Amazon forests produce 20% of the world’s oxygen (氧气). Even if it’s just a small part of the rain forests that are destroyed, it’s a great loss to the whole world. That means, once an area of land burns, it doesn’t regrow as forest. Now Myers’ students know that we should try to protect the rain forests, or the last drop of water on the earth will be our tears.

【1】How much did Myers’ students pay for the rain forest they bought?

A.$25 B.$75 C.$80 D.$2000

【2】What did Myers and his students do at the beginning of the trip?

A.They went into the rain forest. B.They bought acres of rain forest.

C.They took a boat ride down a river. D.They visited Costa Rica’s active volcano.

【3】The word “Destruction” in paragraph 2 probably means “Being __________”

A.discovered B.developed C.described D.destroyed

【4】What will cause “The last drop of water on the earth will be our tears”?

A.Killing some pigs and beef for meat.

B.Cutting down a large amount of trees in the forest.

C.Buying some fruits grown in the rain forest.

D.Traveling in the rain forest.

【5】The passage mainly shows that Myers and his students __________.

A.did something to protect rain forest

B.wanted to buy the rain forest in Costa Rica

C.were interested in the culture of Costa Rica

D.went to the rain forest for various fun activities.
