If you dont believe me, please consider these five reasons to read more books.1 . This shouldnt come as a shock, but studies suggest reading makes you smart. Unlike watching television, which requires no thought process, reading is an active leaning experience that will keep your mind sharp. 2 . The more books you read, the more knowledge you will have, the more ways and resources your brain (大脑)will store, the more likely you will succeed. 3 . Reading more books will enable you to say the sentence, Did you know ?” more often, making it easier to start conversations with strangers. 4 . The more words youre able to use, the better you will become at expressing your thoughts and feelings. I couldnt imagine how I would write articles like this if I didnt actively aim to enlarge my vocabulary, because using the same few words to express myself would get boring.5 . Your mobile phone or TV can make it difficult for you to get a good nights sleep, if you do so late at night. You would be wise to cut off all electronics at least an hour before bed, and replace that with a good book, which is a much better choice. The books can change your life. I firmly believe that if it wasnt for books, I wouldnt have achieved in my life;nor would I have the knowledge, imagination(想象力)or creativity(创造力).I hope these reasons to read more books encourage you to unlock your power of reading. AYou will get surprising new ideas.BYou will make your brain power better. CYou will enjoy a good nights sleep. DYou will have things to talk about at parties. EYou will enlarge your vocabulary. FYour will increase(增加)your chances of success.二、完型填空完形填空先通读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后在每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。April 27th is a special day in Britain. Its called Take Our Daughters & Sons To Work Day.
