One of my most special experiences is the time I graduated from high school．These special moments make me happy when I think of them．I won’t ever forget these moments in my whole life．They are unforgettable times with family and friends on an important day to me．
I remember before we graduated, my classmate and I went to the most important beach in my county．It was a wonderful experience because we enjoyed and learned about life at the coast．We swam at the beaches and we traveled for about one week．We enjoyed it a lot．
Two days after our trip, we had our graduation from high school．Our school was in the capital city of Honduras(洪都拉斯)．In the graduation ceremony(典礼)we used special clothing．They were brown and beige(米色)colors, because in my country, each different junior high school and high school has a special uniform．The ceremony was wonderful．We sang my country’s national anthem(国歌), we held the flag in our hands, and we put the other hand on our hearts．It was so special to me, because we showed respect to our country．That day, around 200 students graduated, including my elder brother．
After the ceremony we had the opportunity to take pictures with our teachers, our family, and friends．I celebrated with a big party with my family and friends, but at the same time, I felt sad because some of us were going to different universities．On the other hand my mother and I were so excited．She told me her experiences in the university, and I went to the same university and started to enjoy university life．
When my experiences of high school come to my mind, I feel happy and I can enjoy them once more．I keep these special moments in my heart to remember my wonderful days in high school．

You will have a lot of reading to do in this grade this year．You can do more of it in less time if you learn to read rapidly．
Perhaps you have been told about some habits (习惯) which keep a person from reading fast and have been strongly asked to break those habits which you might have．
Do you still have any of these bad habits?Check yourself by answering“yes”or“no”to these questions．
(1) Do you move your lips (嘴唇) when reading silently?
(2) Do you point to words with your finger as you read?
(3)Do you move your head from side to side as you read?
(4)Do you read one word at a time?
If you answer“yes”to any of these questions,start at once to break the habit．If you move your tips，hold your fingers over them，or hold a piece of paper be-tween your lips while you are reading．Then if your lips move，your will know it and can stop them．
If you point to words，hold the two sides of your book，one side with your left hand，the other side with your right hand．Then you won't have a free finger to use in pointing while reading．If you move your head，place your chin (下巴) in one hand and hold your head still (静止不动的)．
If you read no more than one or two or three words at a time，you need to work very hard in learning to take in (吸收) more words at each glance (一瞥) as your eyes travel across the lines of words．
Even if you do rather fast now，you can learn to read even faster．As you probably have been told，the secret of fast reading is to take in whole groups of words as each glance．Read in through groups and force (迫使) your eyes along the lines of words as fast as you can to make them go．Anyone who practices doing these things will he able to read faster．
