The most unfortunate people in the world are those who have never discovered how satisfying it is to read good books.I am most interestes in people , in finding out about them,. Some of the most remrkable people I ve met existed only in a writers imagination ,then on the pages of this books ,and then, again, in my imagination. Ive found in books new frieneds, new society , and new words.Reading is the pleasure of the mind, which means that it is a little like a sport: your eagerness and knowledge and quickness make you a good reader Reading is fun , not because the writer is telling you something , but because it makes your mind work . Your own imagination works along with the author s or ever goes beyond his. Your experience, compared with his, brings you to the same or different conclusions , and your ideas devlop as you understand his.Every book stands by itself, like a one-family house, but books in a library are like houses in a city , Although they are separate, togetherthey all add up to something. They are connected with each other and with other cities, The same ideas ,or related ones, turn up in different places; the human problems that repeat themselves in life repeat themselves in literature, but with different solutions according to different writings at different times. Books influence each other; they link the past ,the present and future and have their own genertions, like families. Wherever you start reading, you connectyouself with of the families of ideas ,and in the long run ,you noy only find about the world and the people in it ;you find out about youself, too.Reading can only be fun if you expect it to be. If you concentrate(集中) on books someboby tells you you ought to read ,you probably wont have fun. But if you put down a book you dont like and try another till you find one that means something to you ,and then relax, with it ,you will almost certainly have a good time-and if you become , as a result of reading , better, wiser, kinder, or more gentle, you wont suffered during the process.39.

Too little sleep and more accidents, he said.Sadeh and his colleagues found an extra hour of sleep could make a big difference. The chidren who slept longer, although they woke up more frequently during the night, scored higher on tests, Sadeh reported in the March/April issue of jornalchild development.When the children slept longer , their sleep quality wassomewhat weak, but in spite of this their performance for studyimproved because the extra sleep was more signficant than thereduction in sleep quality,” Sadeh said. Some studies suggested that lack of sleep as a child affected development into adulthoodand it s more likely to develop his attention disorder when he grew older. In earlier studies, Sadehs team found that the fourth graders slept an average of 8. 2hours and the sixth graders slept an average of 7. 7hours.Previous research has shown children in elementary school need at least nine hours of sleep a night on a regular basis. ,said Carl Hunt, director of the National Center on Sleep Disorder Research in Bethesda. And high- school- age children need somewhat less, he said, adding the results of insufficent sleep could be serious.A tired ehild is an accident waiting to happen, Hunt said.And as kids get older , toys get bigger and the risks get higher. Hunt also said too little sleep could result in learning memory problems and long-term effects on school performance.This is an important extension of what we already know”,Hunt said of Sadeh s research, adding sleep is as important nutrition(营养)and exercies to good health. To put it into reality ,Hunt said, parents should make sure they know they childen actually are going to sleep and their rooms are conducive to sleeping instead of playing. ”4.

I needed a part-time job to keep me busy. The qusetion was. What exactly could I do ?The answer came one day as I drove past a lot full of school uses. Thats it ! I thought. I loved kids , plus I d put plenty of miles on our family Chevy(雪佛兰牌).When I think about my years of bus driving , I remember thesnowstorms that seemed to start on Thanksgiving Day and lastthrough March. Mostly, though I remember Charlie.Charkie began riding my bus in September of my fourth year Irving. Eignt years old , with blond hair and crystalline (水晶的)gray eyes, he got on with a group of children . They all had stories to tell me about their summers Charlie , though, ignored (不理睬)me. He didnt even answer when I asked his name. He just stared at me with those big gray eyes of his.Toward the end of that year, the kids on my bus gave me a small present which read to the best Bus Driver Ever. I put it up on the dashboard. On top I hung a small tin heart a little girl had given me. In red paint she had written, I love Polly and Polly loves me.”But on the next-to-last day of school when I got on the bus I realized that the tin heart was gone . Other children joined the chorus, Yeah! Charlie did it ! Search him!Charlie glared when I asked him to come forward. His gaze burned into mine. I stuck my hand into one pocket , Nothing. I realized the other pocket. Then I felt -the familiar outline of the small tin heart. Charlie stared at me for a long time. There were no tears, no pleas for mercy. I was about to the pull the tin heart out Charile s pocket when I stopped myself. Let him keep it. It must have fallen off before I got here, r said to the kids. I 11 probably find it back at the bus stop. Without a word, Charlie returned to his seat.A dozen years after retirement I was in a department store inKansas city ,when someone said gently, Polly? I turned to see a balding man who was approaching middle age. Yes? His face didnt look familiar until I noticed his big gray eyes. There was no doubt. It was Charlie, You were the only one kept trying. he explained. We talked a lot till we went to our separate ways. That night I thought over his words , Before I fell asleep I thanked the lord for the reassurance (放心)that I d done good job.48.
