25、Reading is a good habit, but the problem is, there’s too much to read these days, and too little time to read every word of it. There are hundreds of skills to help you read more in less time. Here are two skills that I think are especially good.

Preview—if it’s long and hard. Previewing is especially useful for getting a general idea of heavy reading like long magazine articles and business reports.

Here’s how to preview.

◆Read the first two paragraphs and the last two paragraphs carefully.

◆Then read only the first sentence of the other paragraphs.

Previewing doesn’t give you all the details. It keeps you from  spending time on things you don’t really want or need to read.

Skim—if it’s short and simple. Skimming is a good way to get a general idea of light reading like popular magazines or the sports and entertainment of your daily paper.

Here’s how to skim.

◆Get your eyes to move fast. Sweep them across each line.

◆Pick up only a few key words in each line.

Everybody skims differently. You and I may not pick up the same words when we skim the same piece, but we’ll get a similar idea of what it’s all about.

【1】How many skills are given in this passage?

A. One.,   B. Two.,   C. Three.,   D. Four.

【2】What does the underlined word “preview” mean in Chinese?

A. 精读,   B. 默读,   C. 朗读,   D. 略读

【3】What should we NOT do when we read sports news in a daily paper according to the passage?

A. Read the last two paragraphs carefully.

B. Get our eyes to move fast.

C. Sweep our eyes across each line.

D. Pick up only a few key words in each line.

【4】Which of the following is WRONG?

A. Skim means reading quickly. It’s a good way to read.

B. There are a lot of ways for you to read more in less time.

C. By previewing you can get all the details of the passage.

D. People can spend less time doing more reading.

【5】What is the best title for this passage?

A. How to read faster,   B. What to read

C. When to read,   D. Why we should read

26、While people usually consider New Year’s Day as the beginning of a new year, the Chinese think differently. According to the Chinese calendar, we Chinese think the start of a new year is Chinese New Year.

     ①     

Chinese New Year is a traditional and very important Chinese holiday. It is known as the Spring Festival.

     ②     

Chinese New Year is celebrated through a number of traditions.

Red envelopes: Red is an important color in Chinese culture as it shows good luck and joy. Money is given in red envelopes. The amount (金额) people receive is usually a lucky even number, like two, six, eight and so on. The amount cannot have four, as in Chinese tradition, it means death.

Firecrackers: Firecrackers are popular during Chinese New Year. They are thought to scare off ghosts. Some countries have stopped the use of firecrackers because they can be dangerous.

Lion and dragon dances:These dances are performed by highly-skilled acrobats (杂技演员). The drums are played along with the dance, to frighten away bad spirits. The dragon dance is a highlight (亮点) of the festival around the world, and large crowds get together to watch it .

Food and families: It’s common for Chinese families to have a big dinner the night before Chinese New Year. Many different kinds of delicious food will be prepared for the family get-together.

     ③     

Each year is named after a different animal. It’s said that twelve kinds of animals had a race to decide the order of the Chinese years. And then the name of each year depended on the order the animals finished the race. The rat won the race, with the pig coming in last.

27、Have you tried to run or walk for exercise and then given up? If you answered yes, you should try a new kind of exercise: aquatic(水中的) exercise. Aquatic exercise is like exercise on land, but you do it in a swimming pool. More and more people are trying aquatic exercise.

Aquatic exercise feels easier than exercise on land. Why? You weigh about 90% less in the pool. It is better for your knees than running or walking. Water is about 1,000 times thicker and heavier than air. To move through the water, your body has to work four times as hard. As a result, you can burn more calories(卡路里).

In fact, most people say they feel more relaxed in the water. They stop thinking about the things that make them worried. They feel in control of their bodies. The cool, quiet environment makes them feel good.

But what if you are afraid of the water? No problem! There is nothing to worry about. Aquatic exercise is safe and easy to learn. It doesn’t require any special skills. You don’t even need to know how to swim. Aquatic exercise is for everyone.
