题目内容
Every day, you carry a lot of books around in your schoolbag. They are heavy. You might wonder if there’s some way to take the weight off your shoulders. The answer is an e-book reader.
E-book readers are digital machines similar to laptops （手提电脑）, but smaller and lighter. You can read an e-book on one just like reading a real paperback （纸制书）. This small device （装置） can hold over 1,000 books, and you can easily carry it anywhere.
At present, e-book readers don’t carry e-textbooks. But you can use them to read novels and magazines. The most successful e-book reader right now is the Kindle, made by the US book-selling website Amazon.
Last Tuesday, a new e-reader called Nook came on the market. It was developed by the US chain bookstore Barnes & Noble. It might become a big hit with book lovers.
Different from other e-book readers, the Nook allows you to lend your e-book to a friend for up to two weeks. You simply e-mail the book from your Nook and your friend can read it on any device with the Barnes & Noble eReader software – their own e-book reader, computer or cell phone . After two weeks, they can no longer read the book and will return it to you.
The Nook has other new features too. You read in black and white on the main screen, just like with Kindle. But the Nook also has a color touch screen below the main screen. It allows you to flip （翻页） through the book or magazine you’re reading. It goes black to save power when you’re not using it.
The Nook also comes with a wireless Internet connection （无线上网）. Nook users in the United States can go to Barnes & Noble stores and use their e-books to browse （浏览） through thousands of e-books and magazines for free.

When I was a girl of 10, I joined the school cross-country team and practiced twice a week, on the 1,8-km course I'd never really run before and I thought the course would be easy. It was a real shock I ran out of breathe(喘气)within the first few minutes. I never realized how tiring running could be but I didn’t t think about give up.
Over time,I did get a little bit faster. However, I was really slow. In races, I would finish close to last. I'd always have to stop more than once, especially in the longer races, which were 2. 5 to 2. 8 km. After every race, I'd go home and cry. But 1 still didn't stop running, holding onto that picture of crossing the finishingline and finally doing well.
Then one of my friends joined the team, too. She could run easily and even came in the 18th in a big race! I felt so slow and my confidence(自信) was lower than ever. I became so nervous when I thought of the races that I wanted to give up badly.
Still. I refund to. Finally. 1 realized that the reason I was to nervous was that I was always worried that I wasn't ready for them. So a few weeks before the next 2. 8-km race. I practiced running almost 3 km every day. which helped me improve my pace(步伐).
When the time came for the big race, all that practicing really paid off. I stopped only once and my pace was so much better.
I realized that I’d finally gotten happiness with running. But the funny thing was. It didn't come from doing better, Instead, it came from the fact that I hid tried harder and never given up.

Dear Anna,
It is nice to see the photo of your room. Here is a photo of my room. These are my bed and my desk. My clock and some books are on the desk. Sometimes the books are on the bed. I like reading books on the bed. Oh, that is my hat on the bed. It is yellow. My quilt is yellow, too. My schoolbag is on the sofa. It is green. I take(带到) it to school every day.
Yours,
Mona
