If you want to become a better reader, what should you know about speed of reading?

Some people read very rapidly(很快地), while others slowly. Which one is better? The rapid reader may be a good reader when he reads a storybook for fun. But he may not be able to slow down enough to read directions carefully. He may read so rapidly that he does not take time to understand fully the ideas and information which are important. The slow reader may be a good reader when he reads directions for making something. But he may spend too much time reading a simple story which is meant to be enjoyed but not to be remembered.

So, you see, either a rapid reader or a slow reader is not really a good one. If you wish to become a better reader, here are four important things to remember .

1 Knowing why you are reading will often help you .

2 Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are directions for making something, science and history books, and Maths problems. You must read such things slowly, remember each important step and understand each important idea.

3 Some things should be read rapidly throughout. Examples are simple stories for enjoyment, letters from friends and bits of news from hometown papers.

When I was eleven years old, God gave me a gift of happiness and I had a carefree childhood in France.

One day, on my way home from school, a truck ran over me and my legs were cut off. As I lay there bleeding, I suddenly realized that I might have to live the rest of my life without legs. How depressed I was at that moment! But then I realized that depression won’t get my legs back. So I decided not to waste my life feeling depressed. When my parents arrived at the hospital, they stood there quietly, looked so shocked and sad. I told them, “I’ve already accepted the fact. Now you also have to get used to this.”

Ever since then, I often see my friends getting worried about little things: The buses comes late; they get bad grades on the tests and so on. But I just enjoy life.

I was lucky to realize that it is a waste of energy to pay attention to what you have lost, and that the key to happiness is to take pleasure in what you have. Sounds simple, doesn’t it? So why are many people unhappy?

People often think happiness is based on what they achieve. “My whole life would improve if I had a new car.” But when they get the car and what happens? For a whole week they are walking on air. Then they go right back to be unhappy.

Happiness is not a happening; it’s a state of mind. Even though you have the whole world and you’ll still be unsatisfied. And you have relatively(相對地)little but feel full of joy. Happiness comes from mastering the art of enjoying and taking pleasure in what you already have.

A. sad and disappointed B. painful and annoyed

C. smart and strong D. calm and quiet

3.In the author’s opinion, the main cause of most people’s unhappiness is they_____________.

A. don’t want to achieve more for future.

B. pay so much and get so little.

C. always compare with others

D. pay so much attention to what they have lost.

4.In paragraph 5, when the man gets the car he had expected, _____________.

A. he will choose to walk on foot for a week.

B. the car will bring a lasting happiness to him.

C. he will find the car is no help for him at all.

D. he will go back to be unhappy after a few days.

5.The author wants to tell us____________.

書面表達

以下是Mary寫給學校心理輔導老師Ms Wang 的一封信.請你以Ms Wang的身份給她回一封80詞左右的信,幫助她解決問題.

Dear Ms Wang

My name is Mary. I’m a student in Class 1, Grade 9. I’m writing to you about my problem and I hope you can give me some advice.

The High School Entrance Exam is coming, but I’m very nervous recently. The main reason is that I did seriously bad in the exam in April.

I used to be very happy because I did well in my lessons. However, after the exam, I realize that there are a lot of difficult problems that I can’t solve. I want to overcome them in a short time. I can’t eat well. Even worse, I stay up late every day and sleep less and less. As a result of that, I feel sleepy and can’t focus my attention on what my teachers say in class. I feel very low. What can I do to get myself back?

Thank you. I’m looking forward to your reply.

Best wishes.

Yours Mary.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,簡要回答下面的問題。

Customs on Eating

Food in China and western countries is different. China has about 5,000 years’ history. They may spend half of their time on food. Chinese people choose food very carefully. They only use fresh materials(新鮮的材料)to make food. For example, they only eat fresh fish. Chinese have a lot of ideas for cooking. They can cook a chicken in over ten ways. That’s why Chinese food is so popular around the world. Western countries, like England or America, don’t have fresh food because they buy their food from supermarkets which only sell stored materials (儲存的材料). Western people also prefer fast food like hamburgers and chips. They are unhealthy for man’s body. Western people do not have many skills for cooking, mostly they only boil, steam (蒸) and bake the food. By the way, western people are very good at making desserts and chocolate. They can make very good cakes and chocolate. These food are very sweet and they can make you become fat quickly.

In China, the person who invites other people for meal would pay for the meal, but it’s not the same way in western countries. In western countries, people will think you only invite them but don’t need to pay for them. They can afford it. They won’t be happy if you pay for them. In western countries like America or England, people will always give tips (小費) to the waiter after they finish the meal in a restaurant. If you don’t, the waiter will not be happy. In China this only happens in some top restaurants and hotels in large cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.

Another difference in eating is that: Chinese people use chopsticks and western people use knives and forks.

Chinese people only have three meals during a day. But western people may have more. They usually have afternoon tea when they would have fruit, cakes or biscuits with cheese (奶酪餅干).
