language, you must also read for pleasure: novels, plays, travel books, and so on. and in reading books of this kind the important thing is to get on with the reading; to try to grasp what the writer is going to tell you in the book as a whole. this is impossible if you stop and think over the meaning of every single word which happens to be unfamiliar. you can not enjoy a story if you stop half a dozen times on every page in order to look up words in the dictionary. you may even prevent yourself from understanding the story as a whole by doing this.when you are reading books of this kind, therefore, you will usually have to rely mainly on the context (上下文) to help you. if you meet an unfamiliar word, do not let it take too much of your attention from the main thread(主线) of the story. in all probability(可能) you will meet the same word again a few pages later on in a slightly different context, and each time you see it that your understanding of it will become more exact.68the phrase “to get on with reading” in the passage has the same meaning as “_”.ato try to grasp the meaning of every sentence in the bookbto try to catch the meaning of every word in the bookcto try to

student! 71 i cannot stress(强调) how important it is to pay attention to what your teacher is teaching you. take part in class discussions if you have something worth to add. pay attention during class, especially during lectures.taking notes is important. you dont need to write down every single word your teacher says but write down what he she writes on the board, or any special fact you think you might need for a test. 72 this way it will help you learn more effectively by actually thinking about what you are writing.dont skip school. you will be missing out on stuff. 73 . however, you will have more work and you have missed lectures and in-class movies. also, try not to be late for class. its most likely that your teacher wont appreciate it and you will get yourself behind. 74
