Reading can benefit people in many ways. Reading helps us to follow the 1 developments of science and technology (科技). Reading provides us with information about other culture and places of the world. When we read, we may find many things that 2 strange to us.

Reading is also one of the most important ways to learn a foreign language like English. We all know that we can’t learn everything at school, for example, the ways English people are speaking and 4 today. Books, magazines, newspapers and other kinds of reading materials can help to know more about the outside world and perfect us. Therefore, it is necessary for us to form the habit of reading every day. “Reading makes a 5 man.”

Leonardo da Vince was born on April 15, 1452 in Italy. He is best known an artist today. One of his famous paintings is called Mona Lisa (蒙娜丽莎). However, Leonardo had many other natural abilities. He was also a great inventor. Many of his inventions have become important in modern day life.
Although Leonardo hated war, he invented many different machines used for war. His most special invention was the machine gun, which was made and used in war many years later.
We have very little of his work today. Leonardo finished only a few of his paintings. He left many unfinished because he thought they were not perfect. No one in his life time knew how great Leonardo was. We now believe, however, that he was one of the cleverest men the world has ever known.

American women have fought for the same place as men for long. This is also shown in the culture and social life in different ways. The earliest change is that American women began to go out of home for work. That has made men not the only one that makes money for home. But soon they began to fight to get the same pay for the same work. So now we can’t see different pays due to genders (性别). And today, the American women are still fighting, because they have found that they don’t have the same chances to get some jobs. And they should have the ability to do it well. Though this fight has never stopped, they still accept that they are called after their husbands’ family names after marrying them. One victory about their names is the word “Ms.”.

Students learn their lessons in class. Teachers teach them. This is the 1 way of learning. Is this the only way for students to learn? Of course not. Besides listening to teachers, students can learn something by 2 .
As you know, many students in schools have 3 new ways of leaning things by themselves in class. The first thing is to read something they are interested in or they have to read. The 4 is that before they ask others, they must ask themselves the questions that they don’t understand. The third is, to answer the questions themselves by thinking hard, by reading the text or other books. If they still have questions, they may show them to the class. Students can learn from each other. They are leaning by working together. They have found great interests in their study. If you keep 5 in this way for a long time, you’re sure to succeed in your study, too.

What goals should you set? How can you make them come true? When you have a goal in your mind, ask 1 , “Why do I want this and what good will it bring me?” If you can’t answer, you’d 2 drop it.

As a student in a middle school, what should we do to be a good volunteer in our everyday life?
First of all, doing something 1 to keep our environment clean is necessary. We can help the cleaners clean up the streets, parks, rivers and so on. We can also tell the little 2 that they shouldn’t throw their waste everywhere.
Second, we should learn to be polite and friendly to others. Have you ever given your seat to a woman with a baby? Have you ever helped an old man carry his heavy bag? And have you ever given a hand to a person with a handicap (残疾)? Help 3 who care in trouble, and our 4 will become more and more beautiful.
Finally, learning English well is helpful. China is a great country with an old history. We can use English to help people all over the world understand 5 about China.
(B)
It’s important to learn how to take care of our environment. If you want to reduce waste, you should use things more wisely. A large number of trees are cut down to make paper. If everyone uses paper carelessly, soon we wouldn’t have any trees left. Other things are also wasted, and people don’t know what they can do with the waste in big cities. So it is necessary to reduce the amount of waste. You should always think of using things again before you want to throw them away. For example, give the clothes you don’t use or the ones that are too small to the poor. In a family, you may pass on such clothes to younger brothers or sisters. Bottles, cans and paper can easily be recycles. By doing so, we save lots of time and money. For example, coke cans are sent to a factory to make new coke cans. Let’s try our best to make the earth cleaner and more beautiful.

If the children like the story and if the teacher uses it 3 , the children can understand it. Children are used to 4 in the world in which they don’t understand a lot of things.

Do you know how to be a healthy kid? In the modern 1 , being healthy is the most important for a kid. The following rules can give you some help.
First, eat different foods, especially fruit and vegetables. Eat something different, so that you can get more nutrients (营养物质) your body needs. Second, drink water and milk as often as possible. When you’re 2 thirsty, cold boiled water is the best choice. Milk is a great drink that can give you more calcium (钙) our body needs to grow strong bones. Third, listen to your body.

At the age of 13, I first thought about what I should do in the future. I dreamt about being a basketball player. However, I gave up this dream because I was too short to play basketball.

Humans have five senses (感官): sight, hearing, taste, smell and touch. We use these senses every day of our lives, when we work, play, eat and drink. Animals have senses too, and sometimes they work much better than 1 .
Some animals seem to have special sense that tells them about the future. Birds, ants and many other animals are busier 2 for food just before bad weather. This helps they stay alive because it’s 3 difficult to find food when the weather is bad. For centuries, people have 4 that animals often behave strangely before an earthquake. Do animals have special sense that knows when earthquake will happen? The answer is probably yes, but 5 do not yet understand how it works.

Grammar is the system of a language. People sometimes describe grammar as the “rules” of a language, but in fact no language has rules. If we use the word “rules”, we suggest that somebody created the rules first and then spoke the language, like a new game.
Do we need to study grammar to learn a language? The short answer is “No”. Very many people in the world speak their own and native language without having studied its grammar. Children start to speak before they even know the word “grammar”.
But if you are serious about leaning a foreign language, the long answer is “Yes, grammar can help you to learn a language more quickly.” Thinking of grammar as something that can help you is important, like a friend. When you understand the grammar of a language, you can understand many things yourself, without having to ask a teacher or look in a book. So think of grammar as something that you can use to find your way – like a map.

Well, you may say that you enjoy watching TV. In fact, TV gives you happiness for a short time, but unhappiness for a long time. Even the happiest people will feel unhappy if they watch TV all the time.
Why? It is because, if you watch more TV, you can’t take part in many other good activities. And sometimes if you are unhappy, you usually prefer being a couch potato (整天坐在沙发上看电视的人), right? Watching TV is relaxing to you.
Then if you want to be happy, what should you do? You can read newspapers, visit your friends, go to parties… but don’t watch television all the time. Now turn off the TV, and take a walk outside. It’s the first step to being happy!

lose confident something we communication
How can we practice our spoken English?
The first and the most important thing is to believe yourself. You should always be full of 1 . You should often encourage yourself, “Come on, don’t be afraid!”
You should never lose heart and never give up.
Maybe you are afraid of 2 face, but you should think since we are students and we are learning, there is no need to worry about 3 . We must always be active in practice. We should 4 with our classmates as often as possible in English. We must know that the main way to study English is that we should make 5 understood. We should believe that native speakers will not laugh at us, instead they will encourage us. So if we are brave enough, we’ll certainly make much progress in our spoken English.
Don’t be shy or afraid! Just have a try.

If you want to learn English well, the most useful way is to read English as much as possible. For example, read English texts as often as you can. These could be the news, short stories or novels, texts from your textbook. Choose an interesting text that is not too difficult for you.
24
Don’t look up every word which is new to you – even with a dictionary you will understand a lot. Just put your heart into what you read and try to find out the meaning by guessing. That works rather well, especially if you are interested in the topic. If you are a football fan, you probably will understand an English text about football easily. Do also watch the news in your native language and try to find English news to some of the topics. Even if you don’t understand every word in the English text, you will get the message as you already know what the text is about.
