So many things in everyday life depend on your being able to read clearly. Here are a few examples.If you want to find out the latest news about your favorite film star or the result of the latest match, you will pick up a newspaper and read what it has to say about these topics.If you are on a long train or plane journey, you will probably have a book, a magazine or an e-book to help you pass the time. Even if you are someone who doesnt read books, it is possible that you will have to read the rules of the computer game that you are playing.Very often, you read something without realizing that you are reading.

Well, please think very carefully about what you mean by reading. Does it just mean that you know the meaning of words on a page and then speak them aloud or to yourself? Or is it something more than that?In fact, reading without understanding is worthless. The main purpose of reading is to help you understand the world better and achieve a more colorful life.

Tonight, in the dark, I would finally take it away. If everything went OK, it would be done by morning. But I had to be sure no one, not even my wife, saw me It was more difficult to get away from the party than I expected. I said that the children were tired and needed to get to bed.

As usual, I read them a bed time story, but I had to stop myself reading too quickly or they would learn my secret. Silence finally came, and feeling like a thief in the night, I went out of the house and into the garage. Taking one end, I dragged(拖曳)the bag out from its hiding place and took it into the garden.

And that was not easy with a saw(锯子)and a hammer. After much effort, my work was finally completed. I looked down at my watch. It was exactly 4: 00 am.
