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 to remember. the slow reader may be a good reader when he reads directions for making something. but he may spend too much time in reading a simple story which is meant to be enjoyed but is not important enough 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 about speed of reading. 1. knowing why you are reading will often help you to know whether to read rapidly or slowly. 2. some things should be read slowly throughout. examples are directions for making or doing something, science and history books, and maths problems. you must read such things slowly or 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. 4. in some of your reading, you must change your speed from fast to slow and slow to fast, as you go along. you will need to read certain pages rapidly and then slow down and do more careful reading when you come to important ideas. ( )1. what should be read rapidly? a. directions for making something. b. maths problems. c. science and history books. d. storybooks, newspapers, personal letters, etc. ( )2.what is the important thing you should keep in mind about speed of reading? a. to read as fast as you can. b. to fit your reading speed to your needs. c. to read as slowly as possible. d. to keep your reading at a certain speed. ( )3. which title best gives the main idea of the passage? a. something about careful reading. b. be a rapid reader. c. how to read? d. how to be a slow reader?bthirty years ago, lake ponkapog in hartwell, new jersey, was full, of life. many birds and animals lived beside the water, which was full of fish. now there are few birds, animals, and fish. the lake water is polluted(污染). it is in a colour of dirty brown, and it is filled with strange plants. how did this happen? first, we must think about how water gets into lakeponkapog. when it rains, water comes into the lake from all around. in the past, there were forests all around lake ponkapog, so the rainwater was clean. now there are many homes around the lake. people often use chemicals(化学品) in their gardens. they use other chemicals inside their houses for cleaning or killing insects(昆虫). there are also many businesses. businesses use chemicals in their machines or shops. other chemicals fall onto the ground from cars or trucks. when it rains, the rainwater picks up all the chemicals from homes and businesses and then carries them into the lake. they pollute the water and kill the animals. boats on the lake are also a problem. lake ponkapog is a popular place for motorboats. but oil and gas(油和汽)from boats get into the lake. so more bad chemicals go into the water this way. people in hartwell are worried. they love their lake and want to save it. will it be possible? a clean lake must have clean rainwater going into it. clean rainwater is possible only if people are more careful about chemicals at home and at work. they must also be more careful about gas and oil and other chemicals on the ground. and they mustnt use motorboats any more on the lake. all these may change peoples lives. only then can lake ponkapog be a beautiful, clean lake again.4. in the past, the water in lake ponkapog was made clean by .a. forests b. rain c. birds d. fish5.chemicals from homes and businesses .a. are always clean b. can help the animalsc. are good for the lake d. get into the rainwater6.cleaner rainwater will mean .a. more boats on the lake b. more dirty things in the lakec. a cleaner lake d. a dirtier lake7.to save lake ponkapog, people need to .a. be more careful about chemicals b. use less waterc. grow fewer plants in the gardens d. use more motorboats on the lakecbefore the 19th century, thousands of languages have been made to achieve one dream but only one made it. people were trying to find a way to end peoples communication trouble and create peace between each other. then one day esperanto (世界语) went into peoples eyes. it was the most widely spoken man-made language and ludwik zamenhof was its creator. he spent his whole life on the amazing language.zamenhof was born on december 15, 1859 in the town of biatystok which is now part of poland. he considered his native language to be his fathers russian, but also his mothers yiddish. as he grew older, he spoke more polish, which later became the native language of his children. his father was a teacher of german, and he also spoke that language often. later he learned french, latin, greek, hebrew, and english, and had an interest in italian, spanish and lithuanian.the population of biatystok was made up of three groups: poles, germans and belarusians. there were often quarrels among these groups. zamenhof was frustrated by the many quarrels. he supposed that the main reason for this was the misunderstanding because there was no one common language. then he began to create a new language, and hoped it would realize the ideal of peace and understanding. during his middle school days, after comparing with many languages he had known, he created a universal (通用的) language. after years of hard work, he finally created esperanto. ludwik zamenhof died on april 14, 1917, and was buried in the jewish cemetery on okopowa street in warsaw.
