Question

15．Are you a bookworm？Is your head stuck in a book for long？If so，that's a good thing．There are many benefits to reading．Getting into a good novel improves our literacy（讀寫能力）．But who or what encourages us to pick up a book and start reading？
    Of course，when we are young，our parents and teachers inspire us by introducing us to  characters that we love-or love to hate．And there are the authors-the people who invent and write about these characters．Good writing can really catch our imagination．
    One modern-day children's author is J．K．Rowling，who's known for her books about the wizard，Harry Potter．Last year she was named as a‘literacy hero'for her part in improving people's love of reading．The UK's National Literacy Trust awarded her the title for"turning a generation of children into readers．"
    The Trust also honoured schoolchildren，a librarian and teachers for their effort in trying to get people to read．The actor，Henry Winkler，who has dyslexia（閱讀障礙），Was also named for the books he has written about a boy with learning difficulties．
    Reading books is more than an enjoyable pastime；it can also help people in difficult circumstances．The author Pat Winslow worked as a writer in prisons and found reading and discussing stories helped prisoners reflect on their patterns of behaviour．She says"Very often we would have discussions about the moral compass of a character，what was the motivation of
somebody，why did they behave that way？"
    Today I like to read factual books such as biographies，where you get an insight into the lives of important and well-known people．I also enjoy looking at travel books and learning about journeys and new destinations．It's a good substitute if you can't visit in person．
    But the main benefit of reading is the improvement it brings to our literacy．The more we do it，the better we get and who knows-one day you may become the next Tolstoy，Jackie  Collins or even William Shakespeare．

點評 1、要想做好科普英語閱讀理解題，同學(xué)們就要注意平時多讀科普知識類文章，學(xué)習(xí)科普知識，積累常見的科普詞匯，從根本上提高科普英語的閱讀能力．
2、要熟悉科普類文章的結(jié)構(gòu)特點．科普類文章一般由標(biāo)題（Head line），導(dǎo)語（Introduction），背景（Back ground），主體（Main body）和結(jié)尾（End）五部分構(gòu)成．標(biāo)題是文章中心思想高度而又精辟的概括，但根據(jù)歷年的高考情況來看，這類閱讀理解材料一般不給標(biāo)題，而要同學(xué)們選擇標(biāo)題．導(dǎo)語一般位于整篇文章的首段．背景交待一個事實的起因．主體則對導(dǎo)語概括的事實進(jìn)行詳細(xì)敘述，這一部分命題往往最多，因此，閱讀時，同學(xué)們要把這部分作為重點．結(jié)尾往往也是中心思想的概括，并與導(dǎo)語相呼應(yīng)，命題者常在此要設(shè)計一道推理判斷題．　　
3、在進(jìn)行推理判斷時，同學(xué)們一定要以閱讀材料所提供的科學(xué)事實為依據(jù)，同時所得出的結(jié)論還應(yīng)符合基本的科普常識．
